End
of Relationship: 1986 in San Bernardino, California Marriage
finally ended.
I
would like to publicly apologize to Alice and Christopher for
being such a big Ahole toward the end of our relationship. I
do not blame Alice for leaving, as emotionally I pushed her away
and than she left. Be careful what you wish for, because you just
might get it. If
I were allowed to do all it over again, I would have chosen a
different path. But until they invent a time machine, I will have
to live with all the consequences of that unforgettable day.
I
hope she has found it in her heart to forgive me and I have always
hoped that she went on to fulfill the life that she rightly deserved.
Maybe someday we all can meet at the Santa Monica Pier and have lunch
on the Beach?
Missed
the changing of the seasons and the fall colors, so, I came back
to Black Oak to stay with my brother Glen. He
lives only 6 blocks from Calumet High School. (We used to walk
to school using a short cut across Burr street.) The
school looks about the same as when I went there. Except, across
the street there used to be a Zayre shopping center, and now there
is a Mansards and a PayLow grocery store.
Will
be posting some pictures soon of the school and surrounding area.
Just
posted a picture of me and my ex from 1975. Boy did I screw up
that relationship. Did not know how good I had it back then!
Does anybody out there have a time machine? I would really like
to go back and try again. This time I will not be such an 'A'hole.
Hopefully,
Alice and Chris will forgive me someday and we can reestablish
communication?
I
have a problem remembering names, than and now. I remember people
from my High School days, but I have a hard time linking the person
to the name. I need to buy the yearbook so I can match the faces
with the names.
Currently
working in the Los Angeles area in the IT field.
On
my bucket list, is to travel to Europe and wander around for 4
months. I better get on it before it is too late. I have always
been a procrastinator.
Missed
the High School reunions, but hope to attend one in the future.
TOOOOO
cold to stay the winter in Gary,In. See you all again in
the spring!!! Back
in college, taking some more computer classes. Very exciting
to learn new things.
Back for another visit with my relatives. Instead of driving,
decided to fly this time. A great ticket price if you are willing to
fly on Halloween...spooooooky. Row 13 no less!
Getting a late start this year. Hopefully, the weather will not be that
bad. Although I do enjoy the rain. Probably will stay till Thanksgiving?
Missed out on the European trip again this year. One of my tasks will be to bury some of my Dad's ashes on Normandy Beach, as he was there during 'D' day.
Better do it before it is too late. Maybe I can find someone to
go with. It is always more fun when you share your experiences with
others.
Rented
a car for the weekend; $9.99 per day special! Thought it would be a
good idea to visit Grant Park,IL again and remember way back when. Bad
idea!!! Stirred up the past and became depressed.
Than, I
drove to the cemetery to visit my father. Brought him a dessert bun
from a mexican bakery. The same ones he used to bring home when we were
kids.
Will be going to the cemetery in Chesterton tomorrow to visit my mother and grandparents. All in all a very sad weekend.
In order to change to a happier mood, I will need something to look forward to. Will be going to Frank and Lucy's house for Thanksgiving. Hopefully that will turn the tide.
