I Think My Parents Would Be Proud

Of the progress I’ve made.  I think my life is finally where it should be after what I went through as a kid. Better late then never!

Some Books I’d Love to Have With Me If I Were Stranded on A Desert Island

1: The Bible-As a Christian, that’s a no brainer!

2: Anything by James Patterson-Got to have some action and mystery!

3: 2 or 3 books from the Game of Thrones series: They’re long, have to have something to kill time.

4: A few from Janet Evanovich’s Stephanie Plum series: mystery and humor. Stephanie’s always getting into some sort of trouble while bringing the bad guys in.

5: Any of my history books, I’d go crazy without them!

What’s your list?

Thanks And Praise To You Lord

That those polyps taken out of me during that colonoscopy came back clean!  I guess that shows that you have more for me to do, just please show me what it is!

If ever there was a book that sounded like it was written about me It was this one

 

One Fat Summer by Robert Lipsyte. Change my name for Bobby Marks’ and it does a good job echoing what I went through when I was a kid. The bullying because of my weight, the criticism from some of my own family, having few friends: sounds all too familiar. The only difference was that I still have not been able to lose weight even after over 40 years. I knew that there was probably going to be a lot of blowback in my mind when I read this, and I was right. I never want to read this book again, It’s the closest I’ve come to having a nervous breakdown!
