On Labor Day, after I did some extensive googling to figure out how to be able to boot up to my Windows XP disc so I could repair my home pc hard drive...I finally found the solution and was able to do it.  I fixed my hard drive and found I had NOT lost anything at all, which was a big relief for me.  I had dreaded for weeks I lost all my music (complete and expanded scores) and some pictures I wasn't able to back up.  I just need to get a terabyte drive in a couple of months and do a back up of my music, so if brief power outage screws up my home pc again I can have a back up of the music.

Five days ago my cat gave birth to one kitten, which died 1 day later.  But then 2 days after that she gave birth to 3 kittens.  She is a Savannah, and I bought breeding rights, so it looks like I will actually have some extra cash for the family this Christmas holiday as well as have some money to add to our down payment savings to get a house.

the police raided a house on our street with guns drawn.  my kids were out playing and they watched it go down from 50 feet away. they surrounded this place, took the door out with a battering ram, sent a viscous dog inside to flush the guy out, then threw down on him and surrounded him with about 8 guns in his face.  I have no idea what they wanted him for. but this is a nice residential neighborhood with kids playing on manicured lawns.. its not the inner city.  I'm a little upset the police had no respect for the neighborhood. the good news is..    nobody got shot. :-\
Yah, most criminals surrender when they have special police divisions there.

I my good news is that I've completely gotten over what I contributed to the stress thread, which is fantastic.

I found 20 dollars at the college campus. I took it to the security office to turn it in and they told me just to keep it.  It's like God wants me to buy a new ps3 game!  ;D

Hey y'all! Just wanted to let y'all know that I survived and I am home minus one leg. I am not going to say much as I am highly drugged a and tired. Just typing on the computer is very hard. Thank you all for your prayers and to those that called. I'll be back when I can think better.
MY 3 hour surgery turned out to take 10 hours. It was a lot more damage then then thought. But. God was with me am so here I am.
God bless!

Grats man, glad you pulled through.  Did they amputate a whole leg?

I just signed the lease for my martial art school's NEW location! I am going from 1726 sq. ft to 2800 sq. ft!  I'll have TWO training floors and can expand my school's programs. I am saving over $1, 500 in rent alone...and for a BIGGER SPACE!

and....

I am adding a Lightsaber Combat Academy class! Students will be learning my saber system as well as be promoted under me....

Life is good  ;D

Getting moved to a new location at work, and I might get more hours as a result, which means a larger paycheck :) I might also get weekends off too ;D
