So what
Mood:  chillin'
Sigh,

My mean ex gave me a birthday card the other day. Her name may as well be Janis instead of Tamela. She is 2 faced. It's odd how she imagines herself nice but yet writes bad things about me and my sf on her blog. She will always be regarded as if she's saying the bad things to our faces. Her and her greasy guy are strange on their blog culture.

Trust my ass
Mood:  energetic
Arrgh, I heard by word of mouth, that my mean bitchy ex wife is trash talking me and my girlfriend again. If she gets to read this, I want her to know I don't trust her as far as I could throw her. She's a self centered legend in her own mind, along with her greasy pony tailed boyfriend for now. I haven't trusted her since she started emailing, talking and gifting to him years ago. In fact in my distrust I "googled" his and her name and found she had gifted him.
One day all her angst and cockeyed self assurance might make her grinchy heart explode. Her time will come. I think she seethes inside knowing I'm far happier without her.
Keep patting yourself on the back deary, maybe one day you'll smack that blackness out of your soul.

Darkness, same as ever
Mood:  a-ok
I guess I'm not surprised that my ex can always top her last bitter action with new, darker bitter actions. What must course through her veins?

Now where did I put that picture disk I copied before my divorce?

I've moved on for now

Hi there,

I saw that a few of my friends were still reading this blog. I've contacted them and told them where to find me.

We knew things were going to get ugly and we prepped. Things are ok.

Thanks to all my supporters and benefactors.

I will be back on this blog occasionally. It was primarily created to be viewed by some particular people. I laced it with keywords and metatags for that reason.

c'ya,
TBB......

Hi there, sorry, I've been away

Hello friends,

Glad to be back. I've had no rants or complaints as of late. I wish work was busier. I could do with the overtime. I did go to a birthday party for my nephew this past weekend. I took my girls. We had a great time. Now more than ever since my divorce we are having the best relationship dads and daughters can share. Not a glimmer of sourness. I love to do things for them.

Below is a picture of Amy enjoying some pool time.

Next is a cake and ice cream pic of my 2 teens (on the right) and 2 of my nieces.

The baronette is doing well despite working and mothering very hard.

Time to publish on my Benrik site...BYE BYE.

A Renaissance Tale

Now Playing: I wouldn't want to be like you...Alan Parsons






The Baron and the Baroness once seemed happy together. They owned and managed a demesne and the castle on it.
They went through some tough times. They achieved many goals. They raised 3 wonderful children. She was a wonderful caregiver and he saw to most of their outdoor activities while she stayed home.
He imbibed in substances and she was opinionated and controlling. These things eventually wore them down. Over time she became disenchanted and he sought out his substances for escape. She eventually consorted with a rogue as an escape herself. She sent the rogue gifts and the Baron found out. The faith of the marriage was lost and the Baron never trusted the Baroness again. The Baroness had already lost faith because she sought promises from the Baron he didn’t keep.
Eventually the Baroness left the Baron. She told the Baron she wanted to remain friends and the Baron agreed. The Baroness acted sincere but in her heart she had a hidden agenda to end up with the rogue as a mate. She thought she would put on an act, feigning to have interest in others, putting time between the revelation to the Baron that she would bring him to be with her.
The rogue was a scoundrel. He spent his time complaining about others. Most vile though, he published crude things about the Baron. These terrible acts created problems which could never be fixed.
When the Baroness revealed her plans to the Baron, the Baron told her he would not remain her friend, and read her like a book knowing that she would do as he expected.
Having her friendship spurned, the Baroness became hateful. The Baroness exercised her wrath by corrupting their children against their father. The Baron had kept the demesne and the castle as he was more able to manage their upkeep for the sake of the children.. The Baroness insulted and spoke down about the people the Baron befriended after having left from the Baroness. The Baroness now sought to pry the castle from the Baron even though she could not have it. In her dark heart the Baroness always waged a bitter battle against those whom had offended her. Her hatred burned like coal.
The Baron had seen this eventuality too. He strengthened his walls. He put stores in his keep for a long battle. He made plans to not lose and to show the Baroness how successful and happy he was now that she was gone.
The Baron in the meantime had met the Baronette, a more petite attractive form of a Baroness. She too had problems from a relationship. They each had their own demesne and castles but one day are considering consolidating their assets.
The Baroness still attempts to chip away at the Baron’s resolve, but in vain.

Next, enter the sappers. The Baron has created many false hidden entrances to ensnare these sappers….More to come.

A Sunday Adventure
Mood:  happy


It's been a great Sunday. In Kentucky we have a fantastic wilderness called the Red River Gorge. It has the largest concentration of natural arches in the eastern United States.
There is an outcropping called Ravens' Rock.

Someone tried to develop a lodge on top of Ravens'Rock back in the 30's. A sharp incline of an asphalt road rise up to the top. The rock is not officially in the adjoining Daniel Boone National Forest. No guides tell you how to get up to it. My brother and I relied on the internet for instructions.

We had problems at first. We went up several false trails then eventually cut through a field of weeds head high. We found the road and made our way up. We were very tired when we made it to the top. The view was fanstastic.

We started out at the bridge on the lower left in the picture above. Using a GPS receiver we saved our coordinates then looked for a natural arch called Ravens Windows but never found it.
We made our way down. We were worn out. We took a drive through the gorge but it was then late in the day. Go to....

and check out the Red River Gorge and it's trails. I've been going there for over 30 years and never fail to be amazed by new things. Here is a picture of haystack rock.

I'll be going back more this summer. I plan on taking more pics.

take care, TBB......

Run!, the doc is learning to drive.

Oh no folks. Our social misfit character the doc, is learning to drive. He's only in is mid forties.
Below is his first vehicle of choice.

















It's my belief that Matty is getting tired of picking him up every night. Watch out everybody.

Beautiful Girl

I had a great time tonight. I got to go see and hear my beautiful daughter sing tonight. She will go far. She has a great voice. What a treat.

The doc rode along with her and I to the presentation. He was tolerable, two faced as he is. We talked a some. While we were there he yawned quite a bit. He was in a hurry to get home.

Things have been good elsewise. I've been regularly busy at work. The Baronette is well and I love her very much. I'm looking forward to our joint family Washington DC vacation this summer.

That's it for now. I'll write again soon.

Hello Readers,

It's been a great weekend. All my daughters are back with me. My oldest did a makeup job on my youngest.

The Baronette (Jodi) came over. We've all had a real nice time. I live in Louisville Ky. The Ky Derby was yesterday. My oldest will be out picking up trash in the infield with her friend. It's a charity thing for her friend's softball team.

Now, the dark stuff. I've resolved to avoid talking to my ex and her boyfriend as much as I can. I've concluded both of them are nothing but third rate trouble. My ex has made my teenagers be anxious by giving them play by play reports of the disagreements we've had. Before we got divorced we went to classes on divorce and children. We were told not to involve our children in our problems. The ex says "it's ok, they're big enough to understand." I hear big stories from the ex about the kids anxieties but curiously these seem to lighten when the kids come over to my place.

Her boyfriend (the non famous doc) broke our gentleman's agreement not to say bad things about each other. He said some crass things on his blog. I'm pushing him back into the category of jerk. Having made this decision days ago has got me feeling better already.

As I write this, the Baronette and my youngest are here with me. The best of all things.

To all my readers, including the lurkers, take care,

TBB
