Yeah I know it’s been about 4 days. I just haven’t been able to write lately due to a few things. First and foremost my depression is back and it’s not good. I’m feeling the weight, anxiety and stress in extreme levels. What does this do? Many things. It exacerbates the symptoms of my Parkinson’s greatly. I get insomnia fairly …

Welcome back! I’m kind of back!?! Ugggg. Back on my normal medication regimen. Got it all worked out yesterday. Still recovering though. I don’t know why things got messed up. Requested a discussion with my doctor about it to try and prevent things like this from happening. In my daze of the past few days I forgot to mention we’ve …

Not to be selfish, of which this is… but having a very kind and supportive friend pass unexpectedly brought be down a lot. Then the printer broke.

Yeah I had to delay the blog a day… again. I haven’t been feeling well. Physically or in spirits, but we’ll get to that. I’ve found myself short on patience lately. I’m starting to feel like all the good has gone away and I’m back to the same old life of fear. I did get some clothing and assistance for …

I come to you this evening with mixed feelings. I’m excited about all the projects I’m working on but I’m extremely saddened by the lose of a good friend… Today suddenly I found out that Ralph Niese has passed away.

Hello my friends! Welcome back! So I figured we’d start out this blog with the good and end with what’s not so great?!? Sound good? Cool! Let’s go… So first and foremost the 3D printer has been just amazing. It’s kept my mind and body busy. It’s brought attention to my painting and other artwork. It’s given me avenues to …

I guess yesterday got away from me… I swear I made my daily post and next thing you know I’m off to bed, decided to check Facebook, noticed I didn’t copy the post over?

Well well well, here we are again. I think yesterday I said that I was diagnosed at 41 which is incorrect. I was diagnosed at 40… dang Parkinson’s.

Singing “It’s 2AM, 30 F-N degrees in here and I hate life” as I get up this morning cold, hurting knowing the propane went out because the little space heater that could just can’t.

Ok, I think we skipped yesterday. It was a bit of a blur. The last week as been. Somethings been wrong.
