I've always tried to push myself to work as hard as possible in everything. I know I am not the smartest (shut up....) Sometimes it takes me a little while to get things, but I do pride myself on getting what I want done, regardless of my short comings.... Life definitly hasn't come easy, but I can manage... Even if I need a pick me up sometimes....
Those pick me ups... Something to light a fire under you... What can I say? It works....
Which leads me to this theory, you may agree or not, but I believe the people you surround yourself with can define how successfull you are.
A running partner, work out buddy.... They push you, you push them, and together, you get over the hump and acheive the goal. Get the idea?
Well, I look at myself.... Always content to do things at my pace, sure I get what I need, but followed a plan which involved waiting for the right timing...
Vicki, she gets what she wants when she wants it, motivated, doesn't take no for an answer....
when people say you can't she's saying you can....
well.. Fast forward to now, and looking back on things, I am doing a lot of things now I didn't think were possible. Out of my parents house a few years before I thought, independant, taking responsibility for things, about to start a new job and ready to start a new chapter in my life with vicki...
I can't thank her enough for her influance, Its good to be in a place that I didn't think I would be in for a while, and I will continue to reach for my goals .... And I hope I can take what I've learned and push the people I care about to achieve their best....

I don't wanna grow up :(
Feels just like yesterday I was starting highschool.....
This gets old fast, but I'm having one of those "were did the time go?" moments.... Okay, I am 27 years old, I think its about time I get over the whole "growing up" thing.... cause its here, and its not going anywhere.
Tough decisions to make, things to do, and of course being accountable.... yikes!
growing up sucks indeed.... but it must happen eventually, and you cannot keep putting it off like homework....
This time next year, I should be well seasoned into the new job I am starting in a couple of weeks, and plans for my wedding should be well under way and just about ready....
Next year In my own eyes, I become officially a grown up, never mind graduating school, or entering the workforce, for me, this is the ultimate sign of growing up.... getting married.
Then you think about how things willl be..... Having a wife, starting a family, growing old with Vicki..... new exciting things to come in life.
You know.....I guess nothing really changes, you still make mistakes, and have some great times... you just keep adding to things and apply what you learned along the way.....
and before you know it.... these mistakes leave you with lessons to make you a better person and your teaching your kids about the things you've learned in life..... hoping that they too can learn from the mistakes they will make down the road
all of a sudden growing up doesn't look so bad after all...

okay let's get up to speed.
Wow, its been a month since the last post....
sorry about that, I am having issues on my laptop, and I am using my Fiancees to do this post.... once i can figure out things from the blackberry, things should get back to normal so to speak. Okay so a lot has happened in the last month.
The last post was in anticpation of the TFC home opener and how exciting things would be... well that game was a shitstorm and well...its been up and down since then with the manager quitting, and a potentially big injury to our star dero....
okay so this means things are bad eh? not quite, a new manager playing attacking football, a legend stepping in and what do you know? top of the east we are! Return match vs the Yellow Football team happens tomorrow, 2 wins under the new manager and the return of Dero to the team....things could be that good!!!!!
Okay enough about football.... for now, a new month is here and things are looking up on all fronts, this time next month, life should be a lot smoother going forward
all i gotta say is sometimes having a fire lit under your ass can do wonders,
