The New Year is upon me

I've really been getting out of the habit of writing anything ...especially online. I'm considering taking up some sort of resolution about writing; perhaps three times a week or something just to get my feet wet again.

I'm so fucking glad Christmas is over with. The New Year is really going to mean a New Year for me, and I think I'm going through a little bit of depression about what it's all going to mean. Ironic that my last post here was about "having a plan" and things have changed so radically and promise to change even more in the coming months.

I've moved since the last post. A move for the better although a little more in rent. I have a car in pieces that I'm just starting to realize isn't going to get the level of completion I was hoping for. I could write about ten different posts about that, but the skinny of it is that even though my welcome may have simply worn off ...I no longer have the resources available where I have it to do what needs to be done anyway. I can tarp off Mom's garage and do it there as easily as I could out there. The next few months is going to be dedicated to just putting it all back together and simply making it drive-able again. I'm thinking that I'll just get it back to the metroplex again and either start driving it again or just parking it at my Mom's.

One of the complications from the move was that I've torn up the rotator cuff in my right shoulder. It's given me problems for many years, but now it's bad enough that I'm in near constant pain on top of being dizzy all the time. I've done nearly three months of therapy with minimal success and the only option left over is surgery (and it's going to have to hurt a lot worse than it is before I'll consider that).

I just have so many things that I want to write about and I'm not really willing to take many of them on at this particular moment. Tomorrow is a new year and maybe I'll start then; right now I'm thinking about going to find a 2-liter bottle of coke to mix with the bottle of rum I bought for a very seldom done drinking binge.
