This Weight Is A Gift


Man, have I been lazy lately…I'm still stuck in the holiday mode, so I need to kick it in to gear. Starting next week, I'll be working overtime again, so I can start saving for the wedding…wow, never thought I'd be saying that…but that's how it goes. Life seems to work in funny ways, and when you are least expecting something, like finding the person of your dreams, poof…they show up in your life. Maybe everything does work out in the end.

I've been really stressed lately though. It seems like with this wedding, honeymoon, and trying to save money for a house, times are going to be a little tough for the next year and a half. Not to mention that I still have to pay off Kylie's ring before January 1st of next year. Throw all that together with about a 1,000 other things that have to get done or need my attention, and it makes me really stressed. I've tried to tell myself that everything will work itself out, which I'm sure it will, but it's hard to not stress about it. I think that times like these are thrust upon people to help them figure out how much they can handle. I know I'll figure out a way to get through this and I'll come up with the $$ for everything, and in the long run it'll help me because I'll know that I can do anything I need to do. So this burden isn't actually a burden at all, just a challenge that will allow me to take another step in becoming the person I want to be.


My Buckeyes also got WAXED in the National Championship game. They were favored to win, and to be honest I didn't think Florida had a chance…but they came out and dominated the Bucks…the OSU Marching Band did a new version of script Ohio at halftime, when the Buckeyes were down by 20. Check it out.












Also, we've decided on a date and location for the wedding. We're getting married on June 27, 2008 at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas. Mark your calendars, it should be an awesome time!!



















On the poker front, I've decided to get back to what makes me money…tournaments and sit n go's. I will mostly play sit n go's, but I want to improve my multi-table tournament game as well. When I was making half-way decent money, I was playing sit n go's…I was up to $20 buy ins, and I hope to be back there in a couple months. I don't think I can play no limit cash games until I learn to control my tilting…I need to get better at that. This is all I've got for now, so I'll catch ya later.

"There comes a time when every life goes off course. In this desperate moment, you must choose your direction. Will you fight to stay on path? Will others tell you who you are? Or will you label yourself? Will you be haunted by your choice? Or will you embrace your new path? Each morning you choose to move forward or simply give up."
