Our dog woke me up just after 7:00, or I would've slept a bit later. Didn't set an alarm this morning.

Have a good day everyone!
Have a good show, and good luck!

This is as close as I've gotten to Yocelin in a week. She doesn't want to talk to me. It's good to know she's okay. That bench is where she usually sleeps.

Josie's Breakfast fundraiser is important. Yocelin isn't some slacker or dope fiend. She's mentally ill and alone. She should be in a hospital but because she's not dangerous to anyone, she's allowed to refuse. There are a ton of people out there like Yocelin. If breakfast is all we can do for them, I say we make it one helluva breakfast.

Josie, I hope we raise a zillion dollars for these people. You're amazing, thank you for everything you're doing.

At the laundromat this morning, almost had my first cigarette after 5 and a half years of having quit. I just had the urge but overcame it. I am almost done so hopefully I will get back home before I give in.

What’s funny is I was trying to find me some interesting content to read to kill some time at the laundromat, sorry nothing found.

Last night the oldest SD was transferred to the Psychiatric Hospital in Towson, MD. She saw a doctor today and he is treating her bi-polar and manic issues. She has no insurance (and she isn't a nut like the other people there she described), so they may be releasing her on Monday. Her Dad can't fly in that day to get her and take her back to Minnesota, so I have no idea what is going to happen to her to ensure she won't go back with the Asian dude. She had my wife do a three way call with the guy she had been seeing and he basically told her to get her crap together or never call him again.

Of course my wife, as expected, has wilted over the last two days as she saw her in the local hospital psych area. She changed her story that she never jumped out of a moving car, but she was stopped at a light. We were very snippy today back and forth because of this and everything else she was saying all of a sudden. This is why at the local hospital where the youngest SD worked, she was able to convince them not to give updates to my wife, but her only. Honestly, if my wife had her way, she'd never been locked up in any hospital and she'd probably have been back with the Asian dude by now.

The oldest SD did rent a car that Sunday. Two people, a man and a woman, turned it back in to the rental car agency the other day by leaving it and the keys after hours. It has damage. The SD is now going to be on the hook for that.

I don't know what smoke Dad blew up Domino's butt out in Minnesota, but they didn't fire her either.

The 73rd Annual Potomac River Festival Fireman's Parade in Colonial Beach last night was decent. It was 4 minutes less than last year, but some nice apparatus showed up. I haven't heard if we won anything yet as I went home to watch the rest of the Yankees game after the parade instead of waiting for award announcements.

Today, we took a drive down to Richmond to a few antique and collectible stores. Had lunch at CiCi's. On the way home, we avoided the I-95 vacation traffic by taking 301 all the way north out of Richmond. It was a nice drive and I now know where 3 fire stations are that I haven't photographed.

You would think she'd already get this in her head since she watched this daughter code in a hospital once already.

Hopefully you didn’t give in

She can stay with you and you can work from home to keep an eye on her.

Pics from today's day trip.

Nasty dirty UP choo choo driving through an intersection in Freeport.



Bridge going to Surfside Beach.
The very first day of my wife's Drivers Ed class she had to drive over this bridge and she was terrified.
She had never driven a car before (even with her parents).



Walking in the water on the beach.

Question: how can a member have all of their posts deleted and still be able to send a PM? I'm not sure if the member is banned or not, but every post has been removed and now their post count is zero. I'm not even sure how to check if they're banned but I'm assuming they are. I can't understand how they could still send a PM.

What am I not understanding?

No way is she allowed to stay with us. If she called that Asia dude and he came over and hurt my Son, I'd be filing for divorce in a heartbeat.

And I'm only working Monday. After that, I'm in Myrtle Beach the rest of the week taking photos of fire trucks and visiting my best friend. And that's not glen.
