Open letter to family and friends
I am so blessed to have my family and friends. I had a really rough last two months. To the point at one time I crawled in bed with Jenna and just cried my eyes out. There was many times I would just go to my room and cry. They we’re there to help me when I broke down cause I didn’t have enough money for bills cause I lost the job that mainly paid for everything. April and Edward we’re there when I needed money to fix my piece of crap car and I’m forever in debt to them(both literally and emotionally). Jenna has always been there to make me feel better even when she’s going through tough times. Elisha has been there for me to just rant to also shes been there to tell me it will work out. Juanita and Jenna were there to remind me that I am awesome and things will get better. And finally even though he’s new to the family Jon has been there to make me laugh. He doesn’t know it yet but I am so thankful that he’s apart of our family now. Even though I give him a lot of crap I love him like a brother and I can’t wait until he’s officially apart of our family.
But things seem to be finally looking up. I ended up having to trade in my piece of crap car and was able to get a brand new Mitsubishi galant. I was also able to help Jenna and Jon get a car for themselves. I got a new job at the Hyatt with Jenna, which will be good. Now I just need to find someone to spend my time with.
So I just wanted to say thanks for everyone always being there for me. I love each and everyone of you guys.
I love how people know just what to say to make me feel like shit. I love knowing that you think it’s great I’m never home and that I’ll live a sad lonely life and it’ll always be like that. Thanks!!!

‘Chito’ and His Crocodile ‘Pocho’: A 20 Year Friendship
The two met 20 years ago, Chito finding the crocodile dying in the Parismina river, after being shot by a farmer for eating one of his cows near shore.

My new project has been making homemade iced coffee and homemade syrups. It’s been very successful with the vanilla flavor. Now I just need to try and make some other ones. I think next I’m gonna try a caramel one and maybe a cinnamon one.
I just heard from downstairs: mom “when women need a change they rearrange the furniture. When men need a change they get a new wife.” kid “thankfully dad hasn’t needed a change”

I just got the shit scared out of me. While sitting downstairs by myself watching tv I heard the door chime. All I could think was that my brother in law didn’t lock the back door and someone was inside. The only thing I could find to “defend” myself was this cross that we have on our bookcase. So I looked around and the door was in fact closed and locked. So I go to the pantry and it’s creepy in there and I see that the garage door is open. So I quickly closed and locked it and went upstairs. Now I’m creeped out and wide awake. This is not a good thing since I have work in the morning.
Babysitting all these babies is really making me want one. I need to get moving on finding me a husband!!
