Birthday Blowout 2016: Of Things To Come






Dear Friends,


Today is August 2nd. It is now 18 days away from my 38th birthday. After yesterday's blog, I will elaborate on my absence on here. I will go into details in the series I will call The Lost Blogs. I think I was writing blogs during my absence but either they were deleted or half finished. Basically, The Lost Blogs will be short two part entries that will fill in the blanks. Since I do actually have people that read my ramblings and life stories, it will be a treat to share things again. I honestly don't have a lot to hide.

My life as it is now is basically a day to day series of tasks and reptition. As much as I hate repition, I am use to constanly repeating myself. It is hard most days to just something once and move on. I feel like a broken record. I miss the excitement of working in Detroit during baseball and football seasons. These days, I fight depression to get out of bed. If I am not fighting depression, I have a bad right knee that is really aggrivating my life. I am falling apart. No more being able to walk or run like I use to. Now I feel like my knee was hit by a baseball bat and shocked by a live wire. Pain and deperession doesn't mix.


The only good thing about this sabbatical is that I will try not to be a broken record. I will try to have more random thoughts and not bitch and moan about things. Since 2013, I have been on a different path and also trying to grow older and wiser. Also I have to try to live life because the mundane of things now is driving me bonkers. I can't do a lot of things I like anymore because of my lack of income. I still reminisce about the fun I had working in Detroit. However, I am fighting to even go back to Detroit and visit people. I fight a daily struggle to be comfortable outsid of my zone. Thank you for reading my life in words.





Your Friend,


Eugene Chandler III
