“Class Reunion “

Flew home on Southwest airlines to Kansas City, MO.  FL Schlagle High School Class of ’81’ 35-year reunion (Kansas City, Ks.) It was my first time attending, had a really great time. It was good seeing old friends and classmates. Will be in attendance for the 40th. Just a few pictures of the fun.

On top of the reunion, Earl and I painted the exterior of my mother’s house. What an ordeal, trying to paint a house in three days at a time frame of 7 hours or less a day. We had help for one day, which was an advantage . We finished and it looks nice.  That’s me looking like a little boy. img_07251img_07261

Magnificent Seven!!!!

Good movie, Denzel did a great job as a cowboy. Chris Platte funny as usual, I like him. Ethan Hawke (Goodnight Robicheaux) love that name. I am sure we will hear that someone has named their child this name.download

Now, I need to go back and watch the original Magnificent Seven to refresh my memory. Go see it, won’t disappoint.

Other Television series that I enjoy on the regular to name a few: Ray Donovan, Shameless, Game Of Thrones, Greys Anatomy, How To Get Away With Murder, Scandal, Blacklist, Devious Maids, Pretty Little Liars, The Affair.

Those that are no longer showing that I loved to watch: Sons Of Anarchy, True Blood, Boardwalk Empire etc…

I have read some other books in the same genre as my own and I must say, when you think you have had it bad there is always someone who has had it worst. My story was just the lighter, the others had the flames. As I continued to browse other books in the same genre, I was shocked at how many books have been written on this same subject. It is as if the world had just turned a blind eye to abuse and domestic violence.

Abuse and domestic violence is still a big problem in society today, especially in our younger generation. We need to find a way to stop this from happening. I am not ashamed of my past but very happy and blessed to be where I am today. We definitely shared some of the same abusive experiences that I could relate to, but no one deserves to be abused mentally physically or verbally.

Back in the old days and I mean wayyy back in the day things that went on in this nature was swept under the rug and dared to be mentioned. We don’t have to be silent anymore, let our voice be heard on abuse, tell someone, get help and get out of that situation as quickly as possible. Don’t let anyone make you feel that you are less than them, don’t let anyone lower your self-esteem, don’t you ever think that you cannot make it in life without them because you can and I have. Let’s keep moving forward.
