Tonight,I am feeling great.I had a wonderful day today out thrift shop hopping.It was fantastic.I found a lot of great stuff.
The best thing that I found were a whole bunch of Elvis Presley 45's.They were all in very good shape.I have never seen or even found so many records by "The King Of Rock & Roll".That was the great find of the day.I did find some other nice things.I managed to find a few more hard to find records.I found all of these at a Salvation Army thrift shop in Buffalo.I did manage to find some nice clothes as well.But those Elvis Presley records were the find of the day.I was so overjoyed.I now have a whole bunch of valuable records in my 45 r.p.m. collection.I also went to am Amvets store and I found some more great stuff,including more clothes.I had a terrific day.It was awesome.
I found out early this morning on the news that the Buffalo Sabres playoff series against the New York Islanders starts on Thursday.The Sabres will be hosting the Islanders in Buffalo as part of the home ice advantage that they have due to the fact that the won the President's Trophy this season for having the best record in the league.Plus,this is also a first in the history of the team.The Sabres have never won that trophy until now.Still,it is a great thing for the Sabres to have.I am really proud of them.They have overcome a lot of terrible obstacles to get where they are.I hope that they can eliminate the Islanders.
Before I went thrift shop hopping today,I did manage to pay the guy for the car that I am buying.The car is now officially mine.Before I put it on the road,my mechanic has to put some much needed minor repair on it.I am not in a hurry.He can take his time.
Tomorrow is a work day.I am hoping that the work day goes smoothly.
That was my day today.FJ

Happy Easter,Everybody
Tonight,I am feeling okay.It was a wonderful Easter today.We had a nice family dinner here at my mother's house today.My sister and her family came over to eat and it was pretty good.My nephews and I watched the final regular season Buffalo Sabres game with them.The Sabres lsot 4-3 in Philadelphia to the Flyers but I was not very disappointed.This game was actually a type that you'd call a "meaningless game."The Buffalo Sabres are President's Trophy winners and they are going to have home ice advantage throughout the playoffs.This means that they will start playing at home for the first two games of every series throughout their playoff run.I have also learned that the Buffalo Sabres will be playing against the New York Islanders in the first round.The Islanders will be coming to Buffalo to play the Sabres in the first round.Officially,the NHL playoffs start on Wednesday.But I am not sure when the Sabres are going to start their playoff run.I am going to keep checking the Sabres website over the next few days to see when they start in their playoff run.I am hoping for the Sabres to eliminate the Islanders.
After the dinner,we had some nice talks with hardly any negative happening with the exception of my sister meddling in my personal stuff by asking what I was doing in my room upstairs all the time I was up there.I felt that she had no right asking a question like that.I always dislike it when you invite relatives over for dinner and they start meddling in your personal life. Just because you invite them over doesn't mean that it's an invitation to be meddlesome.The best thing is to mind your own business and don't ask no personal questions,especially those that meddle in your personal stuff.But then again,you can't always expect people,including relatives,to do just that.There are always going to be meddlesome relatives no matter what.Thank goodness that holidays,like Easter,come only once a year.
Right now,I am now relaxing at home.The weather is COLD tonight.I am hoping that the cold weather ends soon.It's supposed to be Spring but it doesn't feel like it.Again,I am hoping that it ends soon.I am sick of the cold weather.
Last night,I went to entertain the crowd and it was yet another success.I had another blast entertaining the crowd.The crowd really enjoyed the songs that I sang last night and that gave me a great feeling.I really enjoy what I do and this always motivates me.I look forward to next week even more.
Tomorrow morning,I will be meeting with the guy who is selling his car to me.I am hoping that the meeting goes well.I am really going to appreciate this new used car.It will make my job a little easier.
That was my day and my night last night.FJ

Saturday, April 07, 2007

Tonight,I am feeling good,hopeful & optimistic.Today was a pretty good day.I ran some last minute errands for my mother because tomorrow is the holiday and my mother wanted to make sure that everything is going right.She wanted everything to be superb and fitting if not perfect.I ran the errands and I even did a few things for myself alongside the errands.The cold weather did little to dull my spirits today as I did what I had to do.The only drawback was the the stores were really busy and full of people all doing last minute shopping because most of the stores will be closed tomorrow.This is always the same every year.No matter what holiday it is.The stores are always full with last minute shoppers and the store traffic ranges from treacherous to severe.It is always "Excuse Me,I Would Like To Get By." whenever a holiday always falls anytime.It doesn't matter what holiday it is.There will always be some last minute shoppers trying to get some last minute stuff before the holiday comes around.It was pretty stressful but I did not let it get to me.I just went with the flow and I got out.The best thing out of it was that I got my errands finished and that was better than nothing.
Tonight,the Buffalo Sabres are officially the President's Cup winners.They defeated the Washington Capitals by a score of 2-0.Ryan Miller finally got a shutout after struggling all season to try and accomplish one.He has finally did it.He has his shutout.Tomorrow night,the Sabres are playing the Philadelphia Flyers in Philadelphia and they will going up against former teammate Martin Biron.This will be an interesting game.I am hoping that the Sabres will win tomorrow night over the Flyers.
Tonight,I will be singing up a storm for the crowd.I am hoping that the night goes well.I enjoy what I do.
That was my day today and my hoped for night tonight.FJ

Friday, April 06, 2007

Tonight,I am feeling okay.I had a pretty good day off today.I used my day off to help my mother out.I had really nothing else to do today so I decided to help her out today.She had a lot to do.It was great to help her out.I also managed to get a few personal things done for myself.Not a bad day.
Right now,I am at home relaxing and taking it easy.I had a very busy day and it was very rewarding.I got out today.I helped somebody in my family.I even managed to get a few things done for myself and that made me feel good.I had a wonderful day off today and it was a pleasure to get out and do a lot.Yes it was.I had a blast.It was rewarding and it was also a great way to loosen up and use my energy.
Today,I did not say angry things to myself too much.I did not do an awful lot of that today.I guess the idea of reducing my coffee consumption to 2 cups instead of having 3 cups worked.I also found that I have a lot of energy that I am not using and that could be a contributor as to why I am saying a lot of angry things to myself as of late.I felt that maybe I was consuming too much coffee,which has a lot of caffeine,and that was contributing to why I was saying angry things to myself pretending that there were people there.I still did so but not as much.I am going to give this a try for a while and see how it goes in the long run.If it continues to work,I will keep it up.
Tomorrow is the weekend.I can hardly wait for that.I am going to be singing up a storm tomorrow night and I am hoping that the night goes well.Tomorrow night,the Buffalo Sabres are going against the Washington Capitals in Washington.I am hoping for another Buffalo Sabres win.Why?Because the Sabres need one more win to become the winners of the President's Cup for the best record in the NHL.Again,I am hoping for a Buffalo Sabres win tomorrow night.
Thatw as my day and my hoped for night tomorow.FJ

Thursday, April 05, 2007

Tonight,I am having mixed emotions.Why?Because I had a really hard day today on the job.
When I arrived at the pick up point to pick up the laundry,I saw that the laundry room was another mess.It was terrible.There was laundry all over the place.I spent nearly 15 minutes picking up the laundry off the and bagging it.This really took a lot of my time away.After bagging it,I left for the work place and when I arrived,I sorted out the laundry.I then started a couple of loads and simply waited for them to get done.While waiting,I visited some people at the social club next door and talked with the a bit.After that,I went back to the basement and concentrated on my job.
Despite the frustrating start to the day,the rest of the day went by pretty smoothly and I read from my book while waiting for loads of laundry to get done.I even eat my lunch down in the basement alone so I can be there when the loads get finished.Since I have been doing this,I have not lost my temper nor have I gotten mad when something goes wrong or when somebody tries to get on my nerves.Still,I am taking my anger management and control one day at a time.If I can get through a day without getting angry and/or upset,which includes losing my temper,then that is good.There is still the next day and the day after that and so and so on and so on.
The really great thing to happen tonight is that the Buffalo Sabres are victorious again.They defeated the Boston Bruins by a score of 4-2.That really made my night.The Sabres next games are over the weekend.They will be playing that Washington Capitals on Saturday night and the Philadelphia Flyers on Sunday night.I am hoping for two more back to back wins.That would be totally neat.
Tomorrow is Good Friday.I have the day off and I will be helping my mother out tomorrow.I just have to do a couple of personal things before that.Saturday night,I am going to do my usual entertainment.I am hoping that the night goes well.
That was my day today.FJ

Wednesday, April 04, 2007

Tonight,I am feeling pretty good.It was a wonderful day for me today.I accomplished everything that I set out to do.That gives me a feeling of accomplishment and it also makes me feel good.
Today was simply a pick up day for me today.The best thing about it was that there was no mess to clean up.I simply picked up the bag of laundry and dropped it off at the work zone.No trouble at all.
I also had a great meeting with my sexual abuse support counselor.It went terrifically well.It was great to finally get a lot of steam lifted off my shoulders and my brain.I went home feeling great.I also had a wonderful meeting with my support group at the church tonight and that went wonderful as well.It was wonderful to hear stories from the other men about their week and and it was wonderful for me to talk and be heard alongside being listened to at the same time.The weather going down was decent but coming home was a chore.There was non-stop heavy snow fall on the way home.I did make it back to my hometown in one piece and it was only snowing lightly when I reached there.Again,it was a wonderful day for me.I got everything that I set out to do accomplished and that makes me feel good.
Tomorrow is a work day.I am hoping that the work day goes by smoothly.Tomorrow night,the Buffalo Sabres are hosting the Boston Bruins in Buffalo.I am hoping that Sabres can defeat the Bruins.
Friday is a holiday.So,I will have the day off from work the whole day.
That was my day and my night tomight.FJ

Tuesday, April 03, 2007

Tonight,I am feeling okay.It was a pretty good day.Work went by pretty smoothly.Nothing really negative to write home about.I did my job and the rest took care of itself.I had a pretty smooth day.
I also ran a few errands for my mom today.I had to go to the bank and get some money for her and I also had to pay a bill to the bank.I also had to mail a bill out to a finance company.It was just a typical day.It went pretty smoothly and I had a pretty good day.
After dinner,I went out to get some gas because I wanted to make sure my tank was full because it is supposed to get cold tonight.I decided to do some window shopping today at a few shopping malls in my area.It was great to get out and look at a few things.I also walked around the malls for a while to get some exercise.I even talked with a few people.Nothing too special,just a few things about the Buffalo Sabres.But still,I had a pretty good time looking around the malls and walking around it to get some exercise.I even looked around at Wal-Mart and that too was fun.I even talked with a few people there as well.Again,a pretty good time was had.When I get money next time,I am going to start buying some dress shirts to go along with some suits that I have.I have been combing second hand stores for some dress shirts that are my size but have had no luck nor finding the style that I was looking for.Overall,a nice time was had.I got to get out and I even got to talk with some people.
The best thing to happen tonight was that the Buffalo Sabres are now officially Northeast Division champions.They defeated the Pittsburgh Penguins tonight by a score of 4-1 in Pittsburgh.Their next game is a home game on Thursday night when they host the Boston Bruins.Though the Sabres are diviosn champions officially thanks to tonights game,I still hope that the Sabres can pull off another victory over Boston.The Sabres still have a chance of capturing the President's Cup,which is awarded to the team who finishes first in the league when the regular season ends.
Tomorrow is simply a pick up day.I also have an appointment with my sexual abuse support counselor tomorrow afternoon and I also have my support group at the church tomorrow night.I am hoping that both of these go well.
That was my day today.FJ

Monday, April 02, 2007

Tonight,I am feeling okay.I had a very good day today.The weather was decent.It was a sunny day with only a few clouds.I had a very good time today.I went thrift shop hopping like I planned.I went to a couple of them in another area of Western New York.
I found some really nice clothes today.I also found some more hard to find record albums and several oldie 45's.It's hard to believe that I found some really nice clothes that actually fit me real good.I have been to some in the last several weeks over the span of Monday's that I have been going and most of what I found did not fit too good or even not at all.I have been fortunate to have found some in many of the thrift shops that I have been going to.It's great.I also manage to add a few more hard to find record albums to my ever growing collection of vinyl records and even several singles.It's fun to thrift shop hop.I am going to do it again next Monday.I really love it.It's fun.I always have a good time and I have been fortunate to find what I am looking for.
Tomorrow is another work day.I am hoping that the work day goes by pretty smoothly.The work days have been going well for me,so far.But I always hope for things to go smoothly because you never know what might happen because each and every new day has it's anxieties and anticipations.Again,I hope that the work day goes by smoothly.
That was my today and my hoped for day tomorrow.FJ

Sunday, April 01, 2007

Tonight,I am feeling pretty good.I had a very good day today.I ran an errand for my mother today and I also did something for myself.I even took a ride around town and I enjoyed it.I even had my window rolled down and my music blaring.It was a very nice day.I had a good Sunday and it was a beautiful day.
Last night,I went out to sing and I had a blast.I tried out a couple of new songs and I reaquainted myself with a couple of songs that I had not done in a while.I had a great night and the people enjoyed what I did as well.In fact,even a young lady I have known for quite a while complimented me by telling me that I am awesome.That was great.Those words really made my night last night and it motivates me to feel good about what I do even more.I can hardly wait until next week to do the same thing again.I am going to be practicing some new songs for Saturday night.Compliments like that motivate me even more to eagerly await next Saturday night to entertain the crowd.I really enjoy being an entertainer and entertaining the crowd.I enjoy singing and I enjoy it when other people enjoy it.It was a wonderful night.Again,I can hardly wait to do it again next week.
The only disappointment last night was that the Buffalo Sabres lost to the Montreal Canadians by a score of 4-3.Their next game is Tuesday night against the Pittsburgh Penguins in Pittsburgh.I am hoping that the Sabres can beat the Penguins and finally clinch the Northeast Division on Tuesday night.
Tomorrow,I am hoping to go out thrift shop hopping.I am also hoping to find some nice stuff tomorrow.
That was day and my night last night.FJ

Saturday, March 31, 2007

Tonight,I am feeling a little bit better than I have had in recent day.I am also feeling very hopeful and optimistic.Today was a nice day weather wise and I did manage to get a couple of errands out of the way.I feel pretty good.I am just glad that the weekend is finally here.I am always glad for the weekends.Not only is it because I eagerly await it after a work week,it is because I get to do what I enjoy doing and that is entertaining people.I always look forward to entertaining the crowd every Saturday night with my singing.They always enjoy me and I enjoy the fact that they do.It's always a pleasure to entertain and sing to make others happy.It always gives me a measure of satisfaction.Still,I always hope for things to go well even though I rarely if ever have an off night.I always hope because you never know what might happen.I still enjoy what I do.
Tonight,the Buffalo Sabres are playing against the Montreal Canadians in Montreal.Right now,the Sabres are leading 1-0 in the opening period after Daniel Briere scored a few seconds ago.I am hoping that they can defeat the Montreal Canadians tonight.If they do,they will become the Northeast Division champions.It will be their first division championship in a little over a decade.The last time they won the Northeast Division was when Ted Nolan was the head coach.Again,I am hoping for a Buffalo Sabres victory tonight.It will be awesome to have them as the Northeast Division champions.The playoffs are not too far away.They have already clinched a playoff berth and that is awesome in itself.
The Canadians have just scored.The game is tied 1-1.
That was my day and my hoped for night tonight.FJ

Friday, March 30, 2007

Tonight,I am again feeling okay.I had a pretty smooth day on the job.Nothing really negative to write home about happened today.It was a pretty good day and I got a lot done.It was really great.I had a pretty easy day and that gave me a little satisfaction.
Despite having a good day,I still said some angry things to myself.I have been having difficulty with this as of late and it has been really getting me down.It started today within the area that I work.I work in the basement of the organization that I work and it started there today.When I got home,it continued.I did not know why I was doing this.I had a pretty good day and the work day went by smoothly but I still wound up saying very angry things to myself pretending that there are people there in front of me.After I ate dinner,I went for a walk and the walk made me feel better.I felt renewed and not so tensed up.But it did happen again when I got home only not as bad as it was when I was at home.I relaxed for a while and took it easy.But I still have this main problem with saying angry things to myself and it is making me even more miserable because it seems that it's unstoppable.I want to STOP doing this.Again,if anybody has any advice,please share it.Thanks.
The Buffalo Sabres were victorious yet again.They defeated the New York Islanders by a score of 6-4 tonight.Tomorrow night,they are going against the Montreal Canadians in Montreal.I hope that the Sabres can win a third consecutive game.They only need two points to clinch the Northeast Division.I hope that they can do it.
Tomorrow night is my night to entertain the crowd.I am hoping that it goes well.
That was my day.FJ

Thursday, March 29, 2007

Tonight,I am feeling okay.It was a pretty smooth day today and everything worked out the way it should.My day on the job was a pretty easy one.Despite a setback in the morning due to the previous day's workers not finishing his job,I had a pretty smooth day.I just managed to get the whole thing done that I needed to do and it was pretty smooth.There were no messes to clean up at the pick-up site and that made it a little easier.Again,a very smooth day on the job.
Earlier this afternoon,I did have a spell where I once again said angry statements to myself while at home.It just seemed unstoppable.I could not quit even after I had dinner.I had a very smooth day today on the job,but somehow I just had a chip on my shoulder for something and/or somebody and I really did not know what it iwas or even who it was.It's something that I could not understand and I still do not understand this.I have searched for answers and I am hitting dead ends.I do not know what the problem could be.This has been a problem for quite some time and I do not know whait it is or what is bringing it on.
Since it was becoming too much,I said a prayer tonight and asked for forgiveness for this.I am trying to get a grip on my anger.I do not want it having a grip on me.It has had a grip on me for a long time and I do not want it to have a grip on me any more.
After saying that prayer,I simply went for a long walk.I had to get out of the house for a while.I thought that it would do me a world of good.The walk did me a lot of good.I felt better afterwards and it was refreshing.When I got home,I was in a better mood and I did not feel so tensed up.I guess that I will walk more often or maybe I should get my bicycle fixed and start riding it again.Again,the walk made me feel better and that gave me an excellent feeling.
Tomorrow is another work day.I am hoping that the day goes smoothly.Tomorrow night is another Buffalo Sabres hockey game where they are hosting the New York Islanders in Buffalo.I am hoping that the Sabres can win another game.
That was my day.FJ

Wednesday, March 28, 2007

Tonight,I am feeling really good.I had a wonderful meeting tonight.I had a ball talking with the guys and hearing them share their stuff as well.It was terrific.It was great relating to a bunch of men on a normal level playing field rather than talking and not getting anything in return.I have had my share of that and I do not want any more of it.Again,I had a wonderful meeting tonight and it was great to talk with the guys and share my stuff and also listening to the other guys share their stuff.I am looking forward to the next one and I am hoping that it goes as well as this one did tonight.
Today,I talked to the guy who was selling the car and I gave the car a little run and it is a good car.My mechanic even thinks that it is a good car.That is wonderful.I am going to be driving a regular car again after driving a compact 4X4 for quite a while.It is also a four door and it will make my job a little easier when it comes to picking up the laundry and dropping it off.It will have a back seat and a trunk.That way,I can simply put the laundry bags in the back seat and there are no more hassles.Again,I am glad that everything worked out the way it did.
Today was simply a pick up day and that went smoothly without any hassles.There was no mess to pick up off the floor and that was good.I really hate picking up a mess in that room.I just hate to pick up after people who can pick up after themselves in the first place.Again,nothing like that today and that was great.
The Buffalo Sabres were victorious tonight.They defeated the New Jersey Devils by a score of 4-3.Their next game is Friday night when they host the New York Islanders in Buffalo.I am hoping that the Sabres can get a second consecutive victory and add more points to their record. That was day today and night.FJ

Tuesday, March 27, 2007

Tonight,I am feeling okay.I had a very good day today.The work day went by smoothly.It was wonderful to be back at work again making my money.Again,the work day went by smoothly and I had a very good day.
Tomorrow is simply a pick-up day for me.After that,the rest of the day is free.I also have an appointment to look at that car that a friend of my mechanic is selling.I am hoping that the car is as good as he says it is.I have been looking to get back into a regular car again.Again,I am hoping that this car is as good as my mechanic's friend says it is.
Tomorrow night is also my next meeting with my support group at the church.I am hoping that the meeting goes well.I really enjoy going to these meetings and they have been really helping me.I am getting an awful lot out of these.The men in my group listen to every word I say and they give me good advice as to how I can handle some of the issues that I have been trying to get resolved.Again,they are a swell bunch of guys who always listen and never judge.That is a great thing to be a part of.I am looking forward to tomorrow night and again,I am hoping that the meeting goes well.
I am still working on that problem of saying angry things to myself pretending that there are people there that I venting at.I am hoping that I can nip this problem in the butt soon because this is not a good thing.I want to STOP this thing once and for all but I do not know how to go about doing that.If anybody out there has some advice on how I can go about doing this,please share.I am desperate.Again,any advice is appreciated.
The Buffalo Sabres are hosting the New Jersey Devils tomorrow night in Buffalo.I am hoping that Sabres can win this game after that disappointing loss to the Maple Leafs in Toronto last Saturday night.
That was my day and my hoped for night tomorrow night.FJ

Monday, March 26, 2007

Tonight,I am feeling better.I felt a bit uplifted today after a good nights sleep.I also got some news today from my mechanic regarding a car for sale.The car belongs to a fellow customer of his.According to the customer,the car is in very good shape and and runs good.I am going to be looking at it on Wednesday and I hope that it's as good as he said it is.
Today,despite having a very bad thundershower,I went thrift shop hopping.I found some really nice stuff.I even found some clothing that fits me pretty good.It was a very good day.We had some sunny weather and then some rainy weather.It was a roller coaster ride today regarding the weather but I did not let it dampen my spirit today.I simply went thrift shop hopping and I had fun.After shopping,I had a light lunch at a chinese restaurant,which was an egg roll.After that,I went home.I had no problem getting home.I simply came back the way that I went only in the opposite direction.Again,I had a wonderful day and that was great.I am going to do it again next Monday.I just love doing this on my day off.It's better than just staying home and doing nothing.Plus,I just can't stay in my city and go shopping.I have to go out and check out other thrift shops in other areas.Again,I really enjoy this and it gives me some satisfaction when I do.Plus,it's also great to get out of my boring hometown for a few hours.Once again,a wonderful day.
The Buffalo Sabres next game is Wednesday night when they host the New Jersey Devils in Buffalo.After that disappointing loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday night,a win would be great to make me forget about that loss.
Tomorrow is a work day.I hope that it goes by smoothly.
That was my day.FJ

Sunday, March 25, 2007

Tonight,I am feeling mixed emotions.I am feeling depressed at the moment.It is just an occasional spell of the blues that I get when I least expect it.But I took a couple of St.John's Wort capsules and I am hoping that I feel better.Again,this is just an occasional spell of depression.I am not a chronically depressed person.There are times that I feel great and there are times that I feel not so great.But I did take a couple of herbal capsules and I am hoping that the spell passes soon.I just hate being depressed.But I know that it is a natural human emotion and since it's not chronic,I don't have to be dependant on anti-depressants.I have heard so much in the news about those types of drugs and what I have heard in the news regarding them is not so good.
Last night,I went out to entertain and that went pretty good.I managed to try out one new song while reaquainting myself with a few old ones.It was a very good night for me.I had a blast entertaining the crowd with my singing and that was awesome.I always have a very good night entertaining and I enjoy what I do.I also enjoy it when other people enjoy what I do.This actually motivates me to do it every week even more.Again,I love what I do and I enjoy it every step of the way.
Today,there was nothing much to do.I just ran an errand and that was it.It was a pretty boring day today.There wasn't anything to do around my home town.Then again,there never is anything to do where I live anyway.
Tomorrow is my day off.I am going to do some more thrift shop hopping.I am hoping to some more nice clothes for myself.I can hardly wait for that.I enjoy going thrift shop hopping on my day's off.It's fun.
That was my day today and my night last night.FJ

Saturday, March 24, 2007

Tonight,I am feeling hopeful and optimistic.It was a semi decent day today for me.I got to spend a few hours home alone.I rarely ever have time to myself anymore.So,when my mother was going shopping with my sister and my niece,I smiled because I got to spend much of the day at home by myself while my mom and my sister and niece went out and about.I watched a few classic cartoons on DVD while I was doing a computer scan to see if there were any viruses on my database.Though I did one last night,I did another one because while I was opening up e-mail files in my Yahoo e-mail box,the top of the internet page showed black in some areas and I signed out and closed off the internet and started over.After I was done with my personal e-mail work,I deleted some and emptied the trash before signing out.I did a thorough virus scan to see if my computer had any viruses and after about an hour and a half,there were none.I was relieved that there were no viruses or even spyware on the computer.After that,I took it easy for the rest of the day.
I only had to run one errand for my mother today.I had to get a couple of extras for dinner and some more soap because I was almost out of it.After eating,I checked my messages and had only a few.Right now,I am relaxing and getting ready to entertain the crowd tonight.I am hoping that everything goes well.Though I rarely,if ever,have an off night,I still always hope for things to go well.
Tonight,the Buffalo Sabres are having a rematch with the Toronto Maple Leafs in Toronto.Right now,the Sabres are division leaders and are still hoping to clinch a playoff berth.Toronto,on the other hand,is below the top 8 for playoff contention.I hope that the Sabres can defeat the Leafs a second consecutive time tonight.A second consecutive win would be totally sweet.
That was my day today and my hoped for night.FJ

Friday, March 23, 2007

Tonight,I am feeling okay.I had a pretty good day today.The work day went by pretty smoothly.I did my job and that went by fast.I also did some reading of The Anger Wprkbook today.This,unlike The Anger Trap,is more of a spiritual book rather than a secular.It shares scriptures from the Holy Bible and it also offers some ideas on how I can keep my emotions under control.Today,nothing really negative happened to write about and that was good.Again,it was a pretty smooth work day and that was also pretty good.
I am still having the problem of saying angry things to myself pretending that there are people there and it is still crushing me.I still would like to STOP doing that because it is bringing me down.I just do not know what I am going to do.If there is a way that I can stop this habit,I would like some advice.Thanks in advance.Though I have not done this in front of other people,I still would like to STOP this.As I have stated previously,I could wind up unintentionally hurting myself or others and that would not be good.I do not want to do that.I want people to approach me and not be afraid to do so.I would also like for them to talk to me and even like having me around.If I don't stop this,the opposite just might happen.That is something that I don't want to happen.
On a positive side,I had a good day and I got through another day without losing my temper.Not only that,the Buffalo Sabres defeated the Toronto Maple Leafs tonight by a score of 5-4.It did look bad for Buffalo for most of the game when the Leafs took a 4-1 lead and held on to it for most of the game.Buffalo would rally to come from behind by scoring 4 consecutive goals to defeat the Leafs.The Sabres and Leafs are having a rematch tomorrow night in Toronto.I hope that the Sabres can pull another win over the Leafs tomorrow night and I also hope that they do not make the same mistakes that they made tonight like costly turnovers and stupid penalties.The Sabres barely escaped this one tonight and that was great.I hope that that they can pull it off again and this time without any more costly mistakes.
Tomorrow night is my night to entertain the crowds.I am hoping that the night goes well.
That was my day.FJ

Tonight,I am feeling okay.It was a very good day at work for me.The work day went by smoothly and I got a lot done.The work day was a pretty good one today.
I started reading a new book by Les Carter and Frank Minirth called The Anger Workbook.I am going to start doing the work in the workbook tomorrow and jot down some of the issues that have contributed to why I am having a tough time controlling my anger.So far,I have not lost my temper in quite a while since the last time I did and it got me into trouble.But I do have one problem.I am constantly always saying angry things to myself pretending that there are people there in front of me when there is nobody there.I don't do this in front of other people but when I am alone.I work alone in a basement as part of my job with the rehabilitation agency that I work for.It has been a problem with me for quite a while and I would like to stop this habit because I could wind up hurting somebody else unintentionally or even hurt myself where people would not want me around.Though I have been making progress,according to my counselors,my supervisor and other people that I know,I would like to nip this other problem in the butt.It has really been crushing me.I want to STOP saying/shouting angry things to myself because as I have stated above,I do not want to accidently hurt myself or others.Again,it's been really crushing me and I feel that I am never going to be free of this.I want to be free.I want to control my emotions,including anger.I don't want my emotions controlling me.I feel as if I am walking on a bridge that is gonna crash down if I do not walk carefully enough to prevent it from falling.
On a positive note,I am still living and still trying to enjoy life the best way I know how.Despite my problems,I am still hanging in there and trying to keep myself under control one day at a time.But this problem that I have is really bringing me down and I,at times,feel miserable whenever it happens.I just want to be free and live without having my emotions ensnaring me.
Again,the work day went well and that was good.
But I need any advice on how I can contain this problem and keep it contained.Any advice would be helpful.Thanks so much.FJ

Tonight,I am feeling pretty good.I had a very wonderful day today.It was simply awesome and I feel a little bit better today.
Today was simply a pick-up day at work for me.I picked up a couple bags of laundry and they were all bagged and ready for me when I arrived to pick them up.After I dropped them off and sorted the laundry out,I turned in some bottles at a local supermarket and got some extra cash that I really needed.I did my personal computer work and had a light lunch.
I also had a wonderful meeting with my sexual abuse support counselor this afternoon.I am glad that this went well.I also had a wonderful group meeting tonight and I am also glad that it went well.It was wonderful to talk and let all that emotional baggage go as you do so.We also had three new men join our group and that was even more wonderful.It makes our little group look a whole lot bigger.It was terrific to have some new guys in the group.We all let ourselves go in conversation and it was great to let it all out.It was a wonderful meeting and I am looking forward to the next meeting next Wednesday night.
Tonight,the Buffalo Sabres were victorious.The defeated the Washington Capitals tonight by a score of 5-2.Their next game is Friday night when they host the Toronto Maple Leafs in Buffalo.I hope that the Sabres can make it two in a row on Friday night.
Tomorow is another work day.I am hoping that the day goes by smoothly.
That was my day.FJ

Tonight,I am feeling pretty good.I had a very smooth work day today and that was great.I even had a nice talk with one of the job coaches today on the job and it was short,but pleasant.I have really nothing negative to talk about regarding today on the job.So,I will leave it at that.
I am at home right now.The night is COLD but tonight will be the last blast of arctic weather because it will be warmer tomorrow.It is going to be in the upper 40's and there will be rain tomorrow night to melt the snow and ice.I hope that the warm weather will stay awhile because I have had it with the freezing cold.I know that it is Winter but the COLD wintry weather does get tiresome after a while.After taking out the trash,I am going to bathe and get ready for bed.
Tomorrow is simply a pick-up day.I only have to pick up the laundry and drop it off at the work site and go home.I also have a meeting with my sexual abuse support counselor tomorrow afternoon and i am hoping that it goes well.I also have my group meeting at the church tomorrow night and likewise,I am also hoping that it goes well.Tomorrow is special for one other reason,it will be my 7th anniversary of giving up smoking cigarettes.I am glad that I no longer smoke and not having to be dependant on an ash tray whenever I least expect it.But again,I have gotten through 7 years and I am taking not smoking as a one day at a time thing and not thinking of "never doing it again".But I am glad that I have gotten this far and I am ready to go at it again for another year.I still feel that I have accomplished something by this and that gives me a great feeling.Tomorrow night,the Buffalo Sabres are hosting the Washington Capitals at home.I am hoping for a Sabres victory tomorrow night.
That was my day.FJ

Tonight,I am feeling good.I had a wonderful day today.It was truly something.I went thrift shop hopping today as planned and I found some really great stuff.Aside fron finding some nice clothes that fit,I found some more great records to add to my record collection.I did find one that I have been looking for,which made me feel great.It was a nice record album by The Mystic Moods Orchestra.I even listened to it today when I got home as I was sorting out the stuff that I bought.I can now get rid of the really scratched copy that I have been holding onto for a long time.I am glad to have found this album.Again,I had a really great day out.It was great to get out of the city for a while and go somewhere else.I am still hoping to take that trip that I have been holding off on for a long time.I am hoping to take it this year sometime in the near future because I am tired of putting it off so much.Again,I am hoping to make the trip this year and I hope that nothing stands in my way of finally taking it.New York state is nice but I want to go elsewhere for a change.I did leave town for a few days back in 2004 and that was a wonderful experience.It was the first time that I went away since going to summer camp when I was 13.
Again,today was a wonderful day.I got out for a while and that was great.
Tomorrow is another work day.I am hoping that the day goes by smoothly.
That was my day.FJ

Tonight,I am feeling okay.There was not too much to do today because the weather was not too pleasing.But I did get out for a while and I managed to get some stuff done.First,I ran an errand for my mom.Second,I bought a couple slices of pizza and I even managed to visit a shopping mall in my home town and walked around a bit.I simply browsed the stores to see if they had anything nice in stock.They did,but the prices were expensive.I did not have any money with me today anyway.I just went in to look and I walked around the mall for a bit.I left and I went home.After dinner,I relaxed,catched up on my e-mail and even had a talk with a friend of mine from New Jersey.He's doing good.I am glad that he is.
Last night,I went out to do my usual entertaining the crowd.What a night!The place I entertain at was having a St.Patrick's Day party and there was also a raffle.It was also a birthday for one of the semi-regulars and we all sang Birthday by The Beatles off The White Album.I even managed to sing a couple of new songs.It was a very exciting night.I did not leave until a little after 3:00 a.m. in the morning.While on the way home last night,I stopped to get some gas so I would be able to start my vehicle up the next day after a bitterly cold night.Again,last night was great and today was pretty good.I even had a friend who lives in my hometown with me along with his girlfriend.We all had a blast.I did not wake up today until 11:45 a.m.Next week,I am hoping that everything returns to normal.
The only disappointment today was that the Buffalo Sabres lost this afternoon by a score of 4-3 in overtime to the Atlanta Thrashers.But I am happy that the Sabres played a great game and did not try to let the Thrashers walk all over them.The Sabres host the Washingtom Capitals on Wednesday night in Buffalo.I am hoping for a Buffalo Sabres win.
Tomorrow is a day off.I am hoping to do some more thrift shop hopping tomorrow.I am hoping to find some nice things to wear.
That was day and my night last night.FJ

Saturday, March 17, 2007

Tonight,I am feeling hopeful and optimistic.I am going out tonight to entertain the crowd and I am hoping that it will go well.Though I rarely have an off night,I still always hope for things to go well.You never know what might happen.I will be trying out a few new songs tonight and I am hoping that they go over well enough.I always practice and after that,I hope for the best.Tonight,I wil be having a couple of friends along with me as I am doing that.Again,I am hoping that all goes well.
Today,I ran a few errands.That actually worked out pretty well.I managed to find what I was looking for.After the snowfall last night,the weather was a bit cold but it was not very cold.Some of the snow that fell last night was actually melting little by little.Right now,the weather has cooled down somewhat and the snow has stopped melting.Tomorrow,I am hoping that a little more will melt.Before that,we are supposed to get a little bit more snow tonight.Thank goodness that the first day of Spring is almost here.I will be happy for that.Aside from Winter being over,I will be celebrating 7 happy years of not smoking.I gave up smoking cigarettes on the first day of Spring in 2000.If I can still stay smoke free until Wednesday,it will be a full happy 7 years.I don't really miss them any more.
Again,I am hoping that the night goes well.Tomorrow,the Buffalo Sabres are playing an afternoon game against the Atlanta Thrashers.I am hoping that the Sabres can get a third consecutive victory.
That was my day and my hoped for night.FJ

Friday, March 16, 2007

Tonight,I am feeling okay.It was a very good day for me.The work day went by smoothly and that was good.Again,it was a very good day.
After I got home from work,I turned on my computer and I did a virus scan on my computer while helping my mother out by taking her to do some last minute grocery shopping.It was a wonderful time out.The only drawback was that it's snowing again.It started snowing around 4:45 pm today and it is still snowing.According to the National Weather Service,there will not be too much accumulation and we are supposed to get back to warmer temperatures on Monday.I am hoping to do some more thrift shop hopping on Monday.I am still hoping to find some nice clothes that will fit.When I got home,I checked my computer and there were no viruses or spyware on it.YAY!I did my personal work and that was good.
Tonight,the Buffalo Sabres won again.They defeated the Tampa Bay Lightning by a score of 3-2.Their next game is Sunday afternoon against the Atlanta Thrashers.I am hoping for a third consecutive win.
Tomorrow night is my night to sing for the crowd.I am hoping that the night goes well.
That was my day.FJ

Thursday, March 15, 2007

Tonight,I am feeling okay.Despite a major setback this morning when I arrived at work,I had a pretty smooth work day.The setback was a worker from the previous day left laundry in the washers and dryers overnight.It was frustrating because I was hoping to start the load that I had when I arrived there but I had to finish what the other guy did not finish.I checked the dryers and the blankets in it were still pretty wet.I cleaned the lint trap and started the dryers.After about 40 minutes,they were dry and I started the loads that were left in the washers.I had to put them through twice because they did not get dry the first time around mainly because they sat wet overnight in the washer.But I managed to have a pretty smooth workday and I informed my supervisor about what was left behind in the washers and dryers overnight and she informed me that she would have a talk with the previous day's employee and see what can be agreed on.Truthfully,I really don't like it when somebody does not finish a job that they started and it creates stress and anger for me because I have a job to do and I am committed to do it because it's how I make my pay and it pleases those within my employment because they feel that I am a hard worker and a valued employee.I do not mean to sound full of myself but that is what they tell me in their own words and encouraging words keep me going.I did not let my anger get the better of me and I simply let it go.I did my job and that made feel good.
Tonight,the Buffalo Sabres defeated the Florida Panthers by a score of 5-3.Tomorrow night,the Sabres are playing against the Tampa Bay Lightning.I hope that the Sabres can win a second consecutive game tomorrow night.
Tomorrow is another work day. I am hoping that the work day goes smoothly.Then,it's the weekend and I am looking forward to that.I will be singing up a storm for the crowd on Saturday night.I hope that the night goes well.
That was my day.FJ

Wednesday, March 14, 2007

Tonight,I am feeling good.It was a pretty nice evening for me.I went to my weekly meeting at the church and it was wonderful.It was great to finally let all the emotional baggage that I had been carrying throughout the week off of me.It was a relief.I feel really great.It was wonderful to have a group of men there listening to what I had to say.I have really never had that before.Again,it was wonderful this evening.
Today was a frustrtaing day.I was fortunate that I only had to pick up the laundry today and not have to do anything else.The laundry room was an unholy mess.There were blankets,sheets and comforters everywhere around.It took me nearly 20 minutes to pick up the laundry off of the floor and bag it all.I know that the people are trying to learn to live freely without drugs and alcohol but they are old enough to pick up after themselves.The staff at the center are trying their best to have the people staying there do the picking up but it seems that that they are not doing enough to ensure that it is done.After I dropped off the laundry and sorted it out,I left and went home to relax and do my personal stuff on my computer.I even had lunch at a nice restaurant and picked up my income tax refund check at the office where I had my return prepared.My first refund check in years.WOW!It made me feel good all over.This and the meeting tonight made me forget about the frustrations that I had today at work.Again,though the day was frustrating,I forgot all about it with the good things that I had today.My check and the wonderful meeting that I had with my support group at the church.
Tomorrow is another work day.I am hoping that the day goes by smoothly.After today,I am gonna need a smooth work day.Tomorrow night,the Sabres are playing against the Florida Panthers in Florida.I am hoping for another Buffalo Sabres win.After four consecutive losses,a win would make me feel really glad.
That was my day and night.FJ

Tuesday, March 13, 2007

Tonight,I am feeling okay.I had a pretty good work day.It went by pretty smoothly.While I was waiting for loads of laundry to get done,I read my book The Anger Trap by Les Carter and it is fascinating.I have been having problems with anger for quite a while and I have been reading books on anger and how I can keep it under control.I am only doing this because late last year,I was always getting into trouble because I kept getting angry way too easily with other people.I almost lost my job one day because of it and that is why I sought anger management counseling for a while because I did not want to lose my job.Now that I am done with that,I am still reading books on the subject because I want to continue learning new things on how I can keep my emotions,including anger,under control.The next book that I am going to be checking out is called The Anger Workbook,which is also by Les Carter.I think that it will be interesting to read that and use it as a learning tool regarding how I can continue to learn keeping my emotions under control.
Though I have been making progress,as my supervisor and counselors have been telling me,I am still working on my problems one day at a time.Each and every new day brings new challenges and anxieties.Each and every day is new and yesterday is past.Again,though I have been complimented on my progress,I am still taking it one day at a time.It does make me feel good when I can get through the day without getting angry or anything negative happening.But again,each and every day brings all things new.
Tomorrow is simply a pick up day.I am just picking up a load of laundry and I can take it easy for the rest of the day.Tomorrow night is my men's group meeting at the church and I am hoping that it goes good.
I also had a talk with a friend last night and it was a wonderful conversation that I had.I am hoping to talk with him again.
The Buffalo Sabres lost in a shootout tonight by a score of 5-4.Their next game is against the Florida Panthers in Florida.After this disappointing losing streak,a win would be super-duper.
That was my day.FJ

Monday, March 12, 2007

Tonight,I am feeling pretty good.I managed to have a very eventful day today.I managed to finally get some shopping done.Of course,I did not find any nice clothes that would fit me but I still had a very good day.I went thrift shop hopping and I found a lot more record albums to add to my record collection.I even managed to find a few CD's and even a promotional DVD.WOW!Though I did not find any nice clothes,I still found a lot.I had a wonderful day and it made me feel good to finally get out of the city that I live in for a while.After a pretty frustrating weekend,it was wonderful to finally get some activity done.I even had some repair work done to get the Check Engine light turned off.I even had my reverse lights fixed and an oil change.I can now take it easy the rest of the week without worrying about my vehicle.
Last night,I went out to sing and it was a wonderful night.I had a ball despite the fact that there was not too many people out last night.But again,I had a wonderful night.
Tomorrow is a work day.I am hoping that the work day goes smoothly.You never know what will happen.
That was my day and night last night.FJ

Sunday, March 11, 2007

Tonight,I check in with mixed emotions.I had a really frustrating day today.The first phase of the day started when I tried to log on to my e-mail over on Yahoo but I kept getting a "That Page Can Not Be Displayed" message whenever I tried to access it.I tried numerous times throughout the day and still,the same thing.I also learned that I was not the only Yahoo customer experiencing the same problems.There were other customers venting their frustrations over this problem over on Yahoo questions.It seemed that a worm got into the Yahoo database and Yahoo only shut down e-mail access because they did not want the worm to spread into their customers e-mails.Apparently,a new worm was created somehow and using old weapons to spread it such as the phrase "New Graphic Site" were making their way into other users e-mail boxes.So,to be on the safe side,Yahoo temporarily closed off all access to e-mail until the worm could be immobilized and destroyed before it could be spread to computers all over the world.Again,it was frustrating.But Yahoo cares for their customers and they do not want anything to happen to their customers e-mail boxes nor their personal computer databases.I laud Yahoo for their continuing efforts to keep their customers safe from any harmful things that could ruin everybody's computer databases all over the world.I did manage to log on to my other e-mail boxes and there were no problems.
Last night,I did not get the chance to do any singing because the place I sing at were having dart tournaments all night until closing.Not only that,the Buffalo Sabres lost thier third consecutive home game last night to the new Jersey Devils by a score of 3-2.
Aside from the frustrations,a little good thing happened today.I managed to find a 5 dollar bill on the ground and when I got to my computer,I registered the bill at Where's George and I spent it today on a couple slices of pizza.I also managed to buy a couple of movies today and that was great.I bought the DVD's National Lampoon's Vacation double film set,which consists of the first Vacation film and the sequel European Vacation,and Beavis And Butthead Do America.I also had to buy something for my mom,which she needed.
Tonight,I am going out again to sing.I hope that the night goes well.The next Buffalo Sabres game is Tuesday night when they travel to Pittsburgh to play the Penguins.I am hoping that the Sabres can start a new winning streak Tuesday night.
Not only that,last night,on the way home,my check engine light came on.Before I do anything,I am hoping that my mechanic can fit me inb so he can correct the problem.
That was my day and my hoped for night tonight.I am hoping that the new week will be better.FJ

Saturday, March 10, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.The day for me was not too bad.The rainy weather we were supposed to have was reduced to being a light rain shower.It was enough to make it warmer but the sidewalks were still a little slippery.Still,the weather was warmer and that was good.
Today,I helped my mother with her shopping.It was okay.Though I was hoping to so something for myself,I helped my mother out and the day and the experience was okay.After we got home,I took it easy for a while and had a decent meal.I even had a talk with a friend of mine tonight and he's doing good.
Tonight,I am going to be entertaining the crowd.I am hoping that the night goes well.Though I rarely,if ever,have an off night,I still hope for things to go well.I am hoping to try out a few new songs tonight and I hope that I do them well.I love what I do.
Right now,the New Jersey Devils are leading the Buffalo Sabres 3-2 after two periods.I am still hoping that the Sabres will be victorious tonight.After two disappointing home losses,a win would be totally neat.
That was my day and my hoped for night.FJ

Friday, March 09, 2007

Tonight,I check in with mixed emotions.It was a mixed bag of stuff today.
The work day went by as smoothly as it was expected.I simply did my job and went home.After I got home,my mom told me that a music store called and told me that my special order came in and I could pick it up anytime.I simply went to pick it up after I turned on my computer and after it was fully on,I did a virus scan to start with,so I could see if there were any viruses or spyware on it while I was out.Before I did go to pick up my order,my mom threw one of those "spur of the moment" things on me about taking her grocery shopping tomorrow when I had plans to do more shopping for myself tomorrow.I simply had to make changes in my schedule and agreed to help her.I am simply going to do it on Monday when I will have a day off the whole day with no appointments and nothing else to do.I really do not like these "spur of the moment" things that come up.I know that these things can not be helped at any time under any circumstances.But if my mom needs me to help her with something,the least she can do is talk about it with me ahead of time so I can make changes to my schedule when necessary.I sometimes feel that nobody within my family really cares about how I feel.
The only really good thing to happen today was that there were no viruses or spyware on my computer.I picked up my order at the music store,which is "Weird Al" Yankovic: The Ultimate Video Collection on DVD.I am glad to have this in my library.I am still awaiting my copy of the movie UHF on DVD.I am hoping that it comes soon.
I am also disappointed to see that the Buffalo Sabres lost to the Minnesota Wild tonight by a score of 5-1.Tomorrow night,they are hosting the New Jersey Devils at home.I hope that they can beat the Devils tomorrow night.
Tomorrow night is my night to sing for the crowd.I am hoping that the night goes well for me.
That was my day.FJ

Thursday, March 08, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling pretty good.Today was a work day and it went by pretty smoothly.I had a pretty decent day on the job.It went by pretty well.I simply did my job and that was it.I even kept myself busy by reading a book about how to handle my problems with anger and I even read from my bible.It is good to have a goal to set and hope to be accomplished.I have been complimented on my progress and that alone encourages me to keep it up.
Right now,the weather is COLD.Though not as much as it has been lately.I am in the house and anticipating the next day.I am simply taking it easy tonight.This weekend,we're supposed to get warmer weather.I hope that we do because you never know when the gulf stream changes and the same old thing happens.So far,according to the National Weather Service,there has been no change except for the rain possibility.But so far,so good.I am hoping that we can say a fond farewell to this bitterly COLD winter we had this year and have a wonderful Spring.
Tomorrow is yet another work day.I am hoping that it goes by smoothly.Tomorrow night is another Buffalo Sabres game.They are hosting the Minnesota Wild.I am hoping that they can beat them.Than after that,it's the weekend.I can hardly wait for that.I will be entertaining the crowd yet again and I am hoping that the night goes good.
That was my day.FJ

Wednesday, March 07, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling really good.It was a wonderful day today.I had a lot to do and it kept me busy.I did my laundry pick-up today and I went home.I went to meet with my sexual abuse support counselor today and that meeting went great.It was a pretty good day.
Tonight,I went to my support group meeting at the church and that also went great.It was another wonderful meeting.The men in my group are really a swell bunch.They listen to every word I say and they always thank me for sharing my stories.It's great to feel accepted and being made a part of a group,especially when it's a group of men.I am feeling like I am a part of the world of men little by little.I feel like I am accomplishing something here and that makes me feel great.Yes it does.I am looking forward to the next meeting.I am hoping that the next meeting is as good as the last.Though they always are,I still always hope for them to be wonderful.
The only disappointing thing to happen was that the Buffalo Sabres lost to the Carolina Hurricanes tonight by a score of 3-2.But the Sabres played a great game and put a great effort into it.Their next game is Friday night hosting the Minnesota Wild in Buffalo.I hope that they can win that game.After tonight's loss,a win would be totally sweet.
Tomorrow is another work day.I am hoping that it goes smoothly.
That was my day and night

Tuesday, March 06, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.Today was another work day for me and that went by smoothly.I simply did my job and the day went by pretty fast.The only drawback was that the weather was bitterly COLD today.The winds were high and they were incredible.It was pretty sunny but it did little to help relieve us of the bitter wind chills.The wind chil at the moment is -9.We have not had it this cold in quite a while.WOW!The temperatures are really bone chilling.I am just glad to be at home.Tonight,we are still having COLD weather and I am hoping that it ends soon.
Tomorrow is going to be simply a pick up day.I just have to pick up a bag or two of laundry and drop it off at the work place.After that,I go home to get ready for my afternoon appointment with my sexual abuse support counselor and then I have my Wednesday night group meeting at the church.I am hoping that both meetings go well.I can hardly wait for both of them.
Tomorrow night,the Buffalo Sabres are hosting the Colorado Avalanche in Buffalo.I am hoping for another Sabres victory.After the last two victories,another victory would be sweet.Yes it would.
That was my day.FJ

Monday, March 05, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.I had a pretty decent day today.It was not too eventful but I did get a lot accomplished today.It was a day off for me today and I did enjoy it.
The first thing that I got done was that I filed my income tax return.I finally managed to get it done after a little over a month and that made me feel good.I am going to be getting a nice sized refund this year.It is also the first income tax return that I filed in a long time.I was actually happy to get that done.The second thing that I did was that I dropped a record album off at a friend's house.He called to thank me for giving that to him.The third thing that I did was that I had my last meeting with my anger management counselor.I am now going back to regular medication management and that is great.The last two things that I had to do was run a couple of errands for my mother.I got a lot done today and that gives me a feeling of accomplishment.
Right now,I am at home.The weather is extremely COLD with winds blowing up to 35 miles per hour.The wind chill is in the minus single digits and it's bitterly COLD.I am glad that I did not have to do anything after what I had to do.I just stayed home and took it easy.
Tomorrow is another work day.I am hoping that it goes by smoothly.
The Buffalo Sabres are playing again this Wednesday night when they host the Carolina Hurricanes in Buffalo.I am hoping for another Buffalo Sabres win.
That was my day today.FJ

Sunday, March 04, 2007

Tonight,I am checking feeling pretty good.It was a very eventful day today.I managed to go out and get quite a bit done today.I had to run a couple of errands today for myself and that went as well as expected.I had to pick up a few personal things for myself and I also managed to run into a couple of old friends at Wal-Mart,where I was doing my shopping.The day was pretty great.I got a lot accomplished and that was terrific.It was a very good day.I got out and I ran into people that I have not seen in a while.What more can a guy ask for?
Last night was yet another super night.I had a blast entertaining the crowd last night.Like last week,the night started out late but with a different circumstance.There was a special dart tournament going on and there was music playing on the jukebox repeatedly.There was a lot of people there and that was great.The more the merrier.It was such a wonderful night and I got a lot of compliments for the songs that I did,which really made the night worthwhile and FUN.
Tonight,I managed to call a friend tonight and he is doing good.He just got back home tonight and he and his girlfriend are well,which is good.I am glad that he and her are doing great and that they are okay.I even managed to talk with a friend of mine from New Jersey and he is doing great.
The Buffalo Sabres won last night.They defeated the Toronto Maple Leafs by a score of 3-1.While I am overjoyed that the Sabres are winning back to back games,the only disappointing thing is that Ryan Miller could not get a shutout.It seems that Ryan Miller can not get a break while he is in net.Though he played a great game and he did a great job stopping quite a few shots,he just can not get a shutout.But again,the Sabres won and that also made the night for me.
Tomorrow is a day off for me.I have an appointment with my anger management counselor and it will also be my last appointment with him.After that,I will be going back to regular medication management at the hospital.I am hoping that the session goes well.
That was my day and my night last night.FJ

Saturday, March 03, 2007

Tonight,I am checking feeling pretty good and optimistic.I am looking forward to tonight.I am going to be doing my usual entertaining the crowd tonight.I am hoping that all goes well.I rarely have an off night,but I always hope for things to go well.I was practicing two songs that I am hoping to do tonight and I am hoping that I will be able to do them well.I always have a balst entertaining the crowd and singing up a storm.I do enjoy what I do.It makes me feel good to make the crowd feel good.Yes it does.
Today was a pretty eventful day.I went to a thrift shop to go clothes shopping and I found some pretty good things.They were mostly sleepwear for winter and I also managed to find another T-Shirt that fit as well.Next Saturday,I am going to another one and I am hoping to find some more stuff that will fit.Not only that,I also managed to find some really hard to find record albums and a few old 8-Tracks.It was a pretty exciting day and I enjoyed myself.Next Saturday,I am going to another one and I am hoping to find some nice stuff that will fit me.It wil be great to have some nice clothes whenever I need them.
Right now,the Buffalo Sabres are leading the Toronto Maple Leafs 2-0.I am hoping that the Sabres can make it two in a row.They whomped the Montreal Canadians last night in Buffalo and I am hoping for yet another win.That would be totally sweet.A win by the Sabres tonight would make me really happy.Right now,Darius Zubrius has been penalized for hooking and I am hoping that the Sabres can kill off this penalty successfully and that Ryan Miller can still continue to keep the Maple Leafs scoreless.It's about time that Ryan Miller got a shutout this season.He really deserves one.At this moment,there is a scuffle going on between a Leafs and Sabres player but the referees are breaking it up.The Sabres are now back at full strength.Again,I am hoping for another Buffalo Sabres win.
That was my day and my hoped for night tonight.FJ

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.It was a pretty good day today at work.The day went by smoothly and I done what I had to get done.It was another typical day and it went by as smoothly as expected.
This afternoon after work,I simply cashed my paycheck and ran a small errand for my mom.I also managed to get my hair cut.While I was out,I decided to do a thorough scan on my computer for viruses and/or spyware and there was a virus on it.It was called the "Downloader" virus and according to my anti-virus program and the site where the anti virus program originated,it was a high risk type of virus of the "Trojan Horse" variety and the program did resolve it.But I still had to get rid of it.After turning off my system recovery and restarting it,I managed to remove the virus from my database and deleted it from my files.After I did my e-mail work,I did yet another scan on my computer and there were no viruses or spyware in my database.That was a relief.I hate it when my computer gets infected with a virus or even spyware.But again,I am gald to have this anti-virus software on my computer.It's my insurance that I will know when there is something in my computer that should not be there.
The best thing about tonight is that the Buffalo Sabres were victorious yet again.They defeated the Montreal Canadians by a score of 8-5.It was a wild game.There were plenty of goals scored and it was like a shootout.But again,the Sabres came away with a victory tonight.
Tomorrow,I am hoping to make it out to another thrift shop in hopes of buying some new clothes.I am hoping that I will find something that fits.I am in need of some new clothes.I hope to find some.Tomorrow night,I will be entertaining the crowd once again.I am hoping that the night goes good.Though I rarely have a bad night,I always still hope that the night goes good.
That was my day.FJ

Thursday, March 01, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling pretty good.I had a very good past couple of days.Today was a work day and it went by pretty smoothly.I spent much of the day doing what had to be done and it went by pretty well.It was a pretty smooth day.Weather wise,it was a mixed bag of precipitation.It started lightly snowing then it turned to rain,which was a little bit freezing.But still,I got through the day and it was a pretty good day.
Yesterday,I made it out to the thrift shop but could not find really anything that fit me,with the exception of a T-Shirt.But I managed to find some oldie 45's.That way,I did not leave empty handed.It was a pretty exciting day yesterday.Last night,I went to my support group meeting at the church and it was yet another wonderful meeting.I am really getting an awful lot out of these meetings and they are working out.It is great to feel accepted by a group of men and sharing what's on your mind without being judged or ignored.It's great that these men are listening to me when I am talking and it is rewarding when you can talk and be heard and not having to worry about harsh judgements or even worse;rejection.But again,I am glad to have found out about this group and I am also glad to be attending these meetings.I am looking forward to attending the next meeting.
Tomorrow is another work day.I am hoping that it goes by smoothly.Not only that,the Buffalo Sabres are hosting the Montreal Canadians in Buffalo tomorrow night.Then after that,the weekend.I will be entertaining the crowd as usual.The Buffalo Sabres are having a rematch against the Toronto Maple Leafs in Toronto on Saturday night.I am hoping for back to back wins against these two teams.
That was my day today and my day yesterday.FJ

Tuesday, February 27, 2007

Tonight,I am checking in feeling pretty good.I had a very good work day.The day went by pretty smoothly.I simply went through the day doing my job and it made me feel good.I still had to go through yet another day of coughing but I am feeling hopeful that I will feel better soon.I just started taking the medication and it takes time for it to work.Again,I am feeling hopeful.
Tomorrow is simply a pick-up day.I just have to pick up a load or two and drop it off at the work site.I am also hoping that I will be able to make it to the thrift shop so I can shop for new clothes.You never know when you're going to need new nice clothes.I am hoping to find something that will fit.Tomorrow night is a meeting night.I am hoping that the meeting goes well.They have been going well but I still hope for every meeting to go well.
The best thing to happen tonight was that the Buffalo Sabres kicked the energy out of the Toronto Maple Leafs tonight by a score of 6-1.It was a great game.Their next game is this Friday night hosting the Montreal Canadians in Buffalo.I am hoping for another Sabres victory.After they kicked the Maple Leafs out of Toronto,I am hoping that they can do the same thing to the Canadians.
The Sabres made some trades today.Martin Biron went to the Flyers for a second round draft pick next season.Jiri Novotny and the Sabres first round draft selection next season went to the Capitals.The Sabres aquired defensemen Timo Helbing and center Darius Zubrus from the Capitols.The Sabres aquired a back up goaltender from the Columbus Blue Jackets named Ty Conklin in exchange for the Sabres fifth round draft selection next season.A lot of activity during the trade day during the last minutes of the day.Tonight,it has been working because they won tonight.WHAT A GAME!
That was my day.FJ

Monday, February 26, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.Today was a day off from work and it was a pretty decent day.I had a doctor's appointment today and I got a prescription for my irritated throat and for my blood pressure.I am feeling a little bit better than yesterday.I am hoping that I continue to improve in my physical health.My irritated throat has been really getting the better of me and I am hoping that it can finally be gotten rid of.I hate having a dry scratchy throat where I am coughing a lot because of it.But again,I am hoping to be rid of it soon.
I was hoping to go to another thrift shop today but due to a bad snow storm,I put the trip on hold until Wednesday,which I am hoping is better weather because I hate it when an unexpected snow storm comes when I plan to do something.I know that it's winter and we have to expect these things.But this is over strecting the season a little.Again,I am hoping that it gets better for Wednesday.I would like to have some new clothes because you never know when you're going to need them.But I did get one thing accoplished today.I did mange to drop off some old clothes that did not fit me anymore to a thrift shop that I normally buy at,which made me feel good.I also managed to get a few errands for my mother done.
Tomorrow is another work day.I am hoping that the day goes by smoothly.There have been some pretty good to fairly decent days but I am always hoping for things to go by smoothly each and every work day.That is the only thing that I can do.Again,I hope that the work day goes smoothly for me tomorrow.
That was my day today.FJ

Sunday, February 25, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.The day was a not to eventful one.I ran a couple of errands and that was it.But I did not have an awful lot to do.In my hometown,there is really nothing to do,especially when it is winter and the snow is falling with winds blowing it all around and the weather being cold.But I always manage to keep myself entertained.
Tonight,I had a couple of pretty good conversations with a couple of friends.They are both doing great.The first was a friend who lives in my hometown who is visiting his future in-laws.The second was a friend from New Jersey who I met nearly three years ago in PA.They were great conversations and I had a ball talking to them.Yes I did.It was not too bad of an evening.I am now at home relaxing.
Last night,I had another successful night entertaining the crowd.I did my George Harrison tribute and it was well received.I love doing tributes to my favorite dead artists and it is always a gas to do it for a very appreciative crowd.I always look forward to doing it every week.It gets better and better.
The only disappointment was that the Buffalo Sabres lost to the Ottawa Senators last night by a score of 6-5.I have to give the team some kudos because they did play a great game and yes,it was rough with a lot of fighting going on.But again,the Sabres played a great game.Their next game is Tuesday night against the Toronto Maple Leafs in Toronto.I am hoping for a Sabres win.
Tomorrow morning is a doctor's appointment.I have a throat infection that will not go away.I am hoping that the doctor can do something about it.
That was my day and my night last night.FJ

Saturday, February 24, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling pretty good.I am feeling much better than last night.I do not have that recurring headache that I had last night that just kept recurring.I am looking forward to tonight.I am going to be singing up a storm tonight.As I have previously reported,I will be doing a George Harrison tribute tonight because it is his birthday and I always do a tribute to Him and John Lennon when their birthdays come around.I really enjoy doing this every year when their birthdays come around.Then again,I always pay tribute to the both of them every time I sing one of their songs.It is always my pleasure to entertain the crowd and I look forward to that every week.I hope that everything goes great tonight.Though I rarely have an off night,I still hope for everything to go great because you never know what might happen.
At this moment,the Buffalo Sabres are playing against the Ottawa Senators in Ottawa and they are leading the game 1-0 in the first period.I am hoping that the Sabres can make it two consecutive wins over the Senators.After what happened on Thursday night,I am hoping that the Sabres can get their revenge on the Senators.A win would be really sweet.I am hoping for a victory.Thursday night's victory in a shootout was great and another win tonight would be totally neat.
Today was a pretty decent day.The sun shined today and it felt a little warmer today.We are supposed to be getting warmer next week.I did not do too much today.I just ran an errand and that was it.
That was my day.FJ

Friday, February 23, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.The work day went by pretty smoothly and I managed to get done what I had to get done.It was not too bad of a day and I did get a lot accomplished.Right now,I am trying to get rid of a headache that has been recurring.Last night I had one and tonight,I got it again.I am hoping that it goes away soon.I did take something for it and I am hoping that it goes away soon.
Last nights hockey game is still the talk of the town.The big brawl that happened last night is still being talked about all over Western New York.The Sabres are asking the league to thoroughly examine the tapes of the game because the Sabres are trying to point out that some of the Ottawa Senators players started the scuffle.One of them intentionally bumped into Chris Drury and he's out with a concusion for a while.Each and every time the Senators come to town to play the Sabres,they are always starting something.Tomorrow night is a rematch in Ottawa.I hope that the Sabres can beat them again.Yes I do.That was baloney what the Senators did to Chris Drury and keeping him out for the remainder of the season.I hope that Chris Drury gets over his concussion real soon.It would be terrible if he had to sit out of the playoffs.
I am just glad that the weekend is finally here.I will be singing up a storm tomorrow night.I will be doing a tribute to George Harrison tomorrow night because it is his birthday tomorrow.I hope that it goes well.
Again,I hope that the Buffalo Sabres can defeat the Ottawa Senators in Ottawa.Another victory can show the Senators that you don't mess with the Sabres and get away with it.Once again,I hope that they can win another game over Ottawa.
That was my day.FJ

Thursday, February 22, 2007

Tonight,I check in with mixed emotions.After a pretty smooth work day,I had to have a negative verbal scuffle with an unreasonable person.It was a misunderstanding over snack foods that were left around the social club when a person said that I could help myself.I did and what happens,this guy comes off the street after having a cigarette and gets apprehensive about it.Apparently,the food was meant for something else but when I tried to tell him calmly that somebody offered it to me,he still remained apprehensive.After three tries,I gave up and told the staff about it.It worked out pretty good.Fortunately for me,I had to go home because my work day was through.I did not let it get to me because I felt that the coordinator will do his job and everything will turn out for the better.Again,though minor,I did not let it get to me.My day was over and it was pretty smooth up to that point.
I also had to help my mother out today after I got home from work.After that,I did some work around the house and I also had to help my niece out.It was not too bad of a night.
The only really good thing to happen tonight was a Buffalo Sabres victory.They defeated the Ottawa Senators in a shootout by a score of 6-5.There was a really big brawl tonight at the game between several Senators and Sabres players in which even the goaltenders got in a scuffle.The big brawl lasted 15 minutes.There was also a shouting match between Sabres coach Lindy Ruff and Senators coach Bryan Murray behind the benches.What a night it was for the Buffalo Sabres and even the fans who were at the game.I just caught the footage on the news and it was intense.The only noteable thing is that it marked the debut of a hometown boy named Pat Kaleta.Plus,the best thing was Drew Stafford scoring the game winner in the shootout.Still,what a night it was for the Sabres and the fans.This game is truly one of those "unforgettable experiences" in the game.Ice Hockey can be a rough sport but it is always FUN and EXCITING to watch.
Tomorrow is another work day.After that,it's the weekend and I will again be entertaining the crowd as I usually do.I can hardly wait for that.
That was my day and night.FJ

Wednesday, February 21, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling good.I had a wonderful day and night.Today,after dropping off the laundry at work,I went and did a little shopping at a thrift store.I found some really nice clothes that fit me pretty good.I did not even have to try them on.I just went over to a ruler they had and they were my size.The vast majority of them did not fit me but I found a few that did,which was great.This coming Monday,I might go out to another thrift store and see if there is anything more that do.Not only that,I also managed to add a few more record albums and singles to my ever growing record collection,which was also great.
Plus,I had a great session with my sexual abuse support counselor this afternoon.She gave me a little bit more good advice on how I can effectively handle my emotional problems and not be afraid to write what I am feeling down whenever an old feeling of anger comes around and all of a sudden,I am wound up in it.She is showing me how to handle the rage of emotions properly and tactfully so I do not get wound up in it.That made feel good.
Tonight,I went to my support group at the church and that went terrific.I made up for lost time from the cancellation last week and talked about everything that I wanted to get off my chest and that made me feel good.I shared what my sexual abuse support counselor advised me to do and the men simply nodded to indicate that they were listening,which was great.Again,I am glad to have found this group and I am also glad that I am attending the meetings.It feels great to finally feel accepted and have other men listen to you,which is better than ignoring you.Ignoring others is the worst form of emascualtion.
Tomorrow night,the Buffalo Sabres are hosting the Ottawa Senators.I am hoping for another win by them.
That was my day and night.FJ

Tonight,I check in feeling good.It was a pretty good day today and I had a very smooth work day.The day went by pretty well and that was great.I even managed to make it to a store to try on some clothes.The only disappointment is that they did not fit.But then again,what can you expect at times from a second hand store.Sometimes you will find something that fits and sometimes you don't.But it is fun wanting to try something on before you buy it.
I even talked to a friend of mine tonight and he's doing good.He and his girlfriend were watching the Buffalo Sabres hosting the Philadelphia Flyers in Buffalo.I had the game on the radio because I do not have the luxury of cable TV at the moment.But that can change later on.Right now,cable TV is expensive and even satellite,though cheaper by comparison,is also expensive.But when I can afford it,I would like to get it.But now,I will just have to settle on the old radio.
Speaking of the Sabres game tonight,they clobbered the Philadelphia Flyers by a score of 6-3.It was non-stop Sabres scoring the whole game that made it.It was like that they scored 2 goals a period.It was AWESOME!Yes it was.The Buffalo Sabres host the Ottawa Senators on Thursday night.I am hoping that they can close their home stand with a victory over the Senators.After that,the Sabres travel to Ottawa for a re-match on Saturday night.I am hoping that the Sabres can get two consecutive wins over the Senators.They did defeat them in Buffalo on the 7th of this month by a score of 3-2.Again,I am hoping that the Sabres can do it again.
Tomorrow morning is a pick-up.Tomorrow afternoon is my appointment with my sexual abuse support counselor.Tomorrow night is my support group meeting at the church tomorrow night.I am hooping that all goes well throughout the day.
That was my day.FJ

Monday, February 19, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.It was a pretty quiet day and it also was a holiday.Nothing really to do on a holiday except stay at home and take it easy.I did manage to run a few errands today.I also managed to help out a relative who was quite appreciative in me helping her.I went home and I took it easy for the rest of the night.
Tomorrow is a work day.I am hoping that the work day goes smoothly.They have been going better since I have made some changes to the way I do things during the day and that is making me feel better.I have been keeping my emotions under control and I have been complimented on my progress by my supervisor and my counselors.The compliments have made me feel good.But still,I am taking this one day at a time.If I go through one day without getting angry and/or enraged,that is good.There is always another day and that day has it's challenges.Not only that,I can not think of "never getting angry again" because I will get angry at times and when it happens and how I express it,I'll just have to cross that bridge when I come to it.
Tomorrow night,the Buffalo Sabres are hosting the Philadelphia Flyers and I am hoping for a Buffalo Sabres victory.A victory would be really great.
That was my day.FJ

Sunday, February 18, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling good.I have a very eventful day.I had to run errands for my mom and I also helped out a friend tonight.That made feel good.He also thanked me for helping me,which really made feel great inside.It is great to help a friend out and have him show his appreciation to you for helping him.It also makes a man feel really good.I really like that.I am going to strive to help out people more often when asked.
Last night,I went out and had a ball.I sang the three new songs that I was planning and the crowd really enjoyed them.They said that it was wonderful what I did and they showed their appreciation in more ways than one.I really enjoy what I do.I also enjoy it when others enjoy what I do.It makes me feel good inside.That is why I do it every week because it makes me feel good to make them feel good.
The Buffalo Sabres lost in a shootout to the Boston Bruins last night by a score of 4-3.But the Sabres put a great effort in the game and for that I am proud.The Sabres host the Philadelphia Flyers on Tuesday night.I am hoping that they can emerge victorious after that disappointing loss.A win would be awesome.
That was my day and my night last night.FJ

Saturday, February 17, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.I had a pretty decent day today in my neck of the woods.I took it easy for most of the day.I did run a small errand for my mom today and I also had to help my niece out earlier tonight.Again,it was pretty decent day today and I got at least a little bit done.It was still an accomplishment and it made me feel good.I am at home at the moment relaxing until I go out to entertain the crowd tonight.I hope that it goes well.Again,though I rarely have an off night,I still hope for things to go well.I am hoping to try out a few new songs tonight and I hope that it works out.
Right now,the Sabres are playing the Bruins tonight.The Bruins are leading 3-1 at the moment but I am still hoping for a Sabres win tonight.I hope that they can win.Right now,the Bruins have been penalized for a delay of game.The Sabres are going to be on the power play for the next two minutes.I hope that they can tie the score.It is in the second period at the moment.Again,I hope that the Sabres can get another victory tonight.Another victory would be totally sweet.
That was my day and my hoped for night.FJ

Friday, February 16, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.The work day went by as smoothly as expected and it was wonderful.I just did my job and the day went by pretty well.I had a good day and that was pretty good.
The weather is still COLD and the wind is blowing.I am at home relaxing as the wind blows the snow all over the place.According to the National Weather Service,we have to endure two more days of extreme COLD before it starts warming up starting next week.On Monday,it will be in the upper 20's before going in the 30's on Tuesday.There is nothing to do when the weather is COLD and there is no place to go in the area where I live.But I am not complaining.It is just the way of the season and I am just going with the flow.That is all I can do.But I am remaing hopeful that things will get better weatherwise and I also hope that the jet stream does not change and we get it COLD again.But again,that is the way of the season and I am just going with it.
Tomorrow night is the night that I go out to entertain the crowds and I am hoping for a wonderful night.The Boston Bruins are coming to town to play the Buffalo Sabres and I am hoping for another Sabres win.Regarding my entertaining the crowds every Saturday night,I rarely have an off night but I still hope for things to go good.You never know.
That was my day.FJ

Thursday, February 15, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling a little bit better than yesterday.Yesterday I was depressed due to the fact that the weather was COLD and that the meeting that I was supposed to go to was cancelled.Again,I understand why they had to cancel and I respect their reason for doing so,mainly due to the weather.But it was still depressing.I was looking forward to the meeting.But again,I understand the reasons why and I respect them.There is always next Wednesday night and I am going to that meeting.I hope that the meeting goes great.
Today was yet another work day and it was a full day.It went by as smoothly as expected and that was good.I got a lot done and that made me feel good.Yes it did.It was a pretty good day.The weather was cold but not as cold as it was yesterday.Tonight,it is pretty COLD and the wind is lightly blowing.I can not wait until next week when it starts to warm up starting Tuesday.Until then,we have to deal with and endure more frigid winter conditions and some more bitterly COLD temperatures.Boy,I can not wait for it to get warmer.I know that it's winter and this type of weather is to be expected during this time of the year.But again,I still can not wait for it to get warmer.
Tonight,I am feeling better because the Buffalo Sabres were victorious yet again.The defeated the Edmonton Oilers in overtime by a score of 2-1.Thanks once again to Daniel Briere for the game winner in overtime.
Tomorrow is Friday.It is another work day and then,the weekend will be upon us.I can hardly wait to entertain the crowds again Saturday night.
That was my day.FJ

Wednesday, February 14, 2007

Tonight,I check in with mixed emotions.The reason being is that the meeting that I was supposed to go to was cancelled due to the snow storm that we are having.Don't get me wrong,I do respect the reasons why the meeting was cancelled and I understand that the weather is really treacherous at the moment with all the snowfall and bitter wind chills and travel would be dangerous in this type of weather.I was disappointed but it was for a good reason.It also saved me from making a phone call and it also saved me a trip and some gas.The only good thing is that there will be one next Wednesday night and I will be looking forward to that.It was disappointing,yes.But still,it is better to be safe than sorry.
Right now,the weather is COLD.The snow is falling and the wind chills are in the minus teens.But the snow is supposed to taper off by tomorrow early morning.I hope so.We are going to get another snow fall in the area Thursday night into Friday morning.We are supposed to get a break on Saturday but it will start again Saturday night into Sunday morning that will progress on into Sunday evening.The cycle of winter.Then again,we have not had it that bad in this neck of the woods this year,so far.By comparison to the rest of the state of New York,specifically the Southern Tier and Ski Country's,we have a light dusting by comparison.It has not been this bad in 30 years since the infamous Blizzard Of '77.But still,this snowfall pales in comparison and though the weather has been COLD,we still have a light dusting by comparison to the rest of New York state.Still,it's winter and we have to expect this.
Tomorrow is another work day.It will be a full day.Tomorrow night,the Buffalo Sabres are playing the Edmonton Oilers when they come to Buffalo.I hope that the Sabres can beat the Oilers tomorrow night.
That was my day.FJ

Tuesday, February 13, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.The work day went by as smoothly as expected and that was good.I concentrated on my job and the day went by pretty smoothly.It makes me feel a bit better.Tomorrow is just a pick up day.I am just going to pick up and go home.
Tonight,the snow is falling and it is COLD.The heavy snow warning that was issued was originally supposed to expire at 5:00p.m. tomorrow but that has been changed to 2:00p.m. tomorrow.I am still hoping to go to the meeting tomorrow night at the church and I am hoping that the snow is not too heavy for my half-hour drive to get there.I am geting a lot out of these meetings and I am enjoying them.The men in the group are a swell bunch and they are actually making me feel right at home with them,which is terrific.Again,I am planning to be there.I am going to get an awful lot out of the meeting as I have been.
The Buffalo Sabres are playing again on Thursday night when the Edmonton Oilers come to town.I am hoping for another Buffalo Sabres win.
That was my day.FJ

Monday, February 12, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling pretty good.The weather is still COLD but I am hanging in there.We will have a Hevay Snow Warning in effect for my area from 5:00 p.m.Tuesday to 5:00p.m. Wednesday.But again,it's winter and we have to expect these things to happen.According to the National Weather Service,there will be heavy snowfall during the afternoon,evening and overnight and will taper off by mid afternoon on Wednesday.I hope that it does not get too heavy because I am still planning to go to my group on Wednesday night to get a lot out of what I am getting out of it at the moment.These group metings have been helping me a lot and they have been very awarding.Again,I am hoping that it does not get too heavy.I am still planning to go to the group meeting.
Today,I just took it easy for most of the day.I only ran a couple of errands for two of my members and that was it.Tomorrow is another work day.I am hoping that the work day goes as smoothly as expected.
The next time the Sabres play is Thursday night when the Edmonton Oilers come to town.I hope that the Sabres can beat the Oilers.They have been doing great since February began and I hope that they can continue to do great.
That was my day and night.FJ

Sunday, February 11, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling okay.I am at home right now relaxing.The weather is still COLD with bitter wind chills in the minus single digits with no end in sight for the foreseeable future.February is definitely the coldest month in the winter and the weather right now shows it.
Last night,I went out to entertain the crowd and the night was yet another huge success for me.The crowd enjoyed my song selections and they did show their appreciation in more ways than one.That made me feel good.It was a wonderful night.I enjoyed myself and the crowd enjoyed me.Not only that,the Buffalo Sabres won in a shootout last night over the Calgary Flames by a score of 3-2.Ales Kotalik was the hero last night who won it for Buffalo in the shootout.It was a great night with the crowd enjoying me and the Buffalo Sabres won.It was a wonderful night.I had a ball and that made me feel good.
Today,I had to run an errand for my mom to get something for dinner tonight.That went well as planned.The weather was cold but not as cold as it is tonight.But still,I got something done and that made me feel good.
I did have a talk with a friend from New Jersey and he is doing good.I had a nice talk with him and that made my night a little bit better.Again,I am right now relaxing and taking it easy.
Tomorrow is a day off for me.I am going to take it easy tomorrow and enjoy my day off.I am also going to get ready for Tuesday,which is a work day for me.
That was my day and my night last night.FJ

Saturday, February 10, 2007

Tonight,I check in feeling a little bit better than the past couple of days.I have been feeling just okay the last couple of days/nights and now tonight,I can say that I am feeling a bit better.Tonight is my night to entertain the crowds again.I am looking forward to that with a lot of enthusiasm and anticipation.I am hoping that the night goes great.Again,I rarely if ever have an off night,I still hope for things to go good.You never know what might happen.Plus,after what happened to me on Thursday,I can now forget that and be where there are people who do indeed appreciate me and what I do.If the night's a success,I can say YES within myself and smile brightly.Why?Because my night was a success and those who like to put me down for my talent and show off how jealous they are,they actually know where they can go and what they can do to themselves.That is why I will be smiling.
Another reason why I am feeling better is this;I have now added a few more friends to my friends list over on My Space and they are entertainers themselves.It's great to meet other people who have something in common with you.I am feeling a bit better and that is great.
Tonight,the Buffalo Sabres are playing the Calgary Flames in Buffalo.I hope that the Sabres can win another one tonight.It was wonderful finally seeing them defeat the Ottawa Senators on Wednesday night.Now tonight,I hope that they can beat Calgary.Another win would be SUPER.Yes it would.
That was my day and again,I am hoping that the night goes well.FJ
