Deactivated Facebook

Sheesh! I just noticed I haven't posted in here since May! What's up with that?? Idk.. I think I'm going to start posting here way more often.

So, as the title says, I have deactivated my facebook today. I wish I could delete it all together, but the powers that be at FB doesn't seem to let folks do such things. At least I couldn't find anything definitive. Well, maybe I did, but I need my laptop to do it. I've packed my laptop away last night while clearing off my workstation. So, all I have to work with is my phone.

The reason(s) why I deactivated my facebook is that it is a huge time waster. I literally, before, would spend hours on there. Any little notification, I check my phone. Just to see it's some nonsensical thing. WTF?!  I grew up in the 80's & 90's. We didn't carry a palm sized computer with us everywhere we went! It was much more peaceful back then.

Am I having withdrawls from the last couple hours of not being on there? Yes & no. Yes, because it checking FB becomes an addictive habit like smoking. Which I seriously need to work on as well. That's another story. No, because it's so much more quiter since I've been off FB.

Other social media isn't as much as an issue as FB is/was. Well, maybe youtube. However, with youtube I'm a creator on there. I also am a consumer of other people's content. Instagram isn't an issue at all. I'm barely on there. Yes, I'm aware that FB owns IG, but IG will stay on my phone. Twitter is in no way an issue. I don't even go on there. Tumblr is where I look for porn. That could be an issue, and another story.

Anyways, just an over due update about what's happening with me.

Just Increased My Monthly Cashflow By $500!!

Just increased my monthly cashflow by $500!

I payed off a loan that I've been paying on for almost three (3) years. With the "extra" $500 I now have, I'll use that to pay off more debt. Further increasing my cashflow with every debt payed off. After everything is payed off, I'm expecting at least $2300 increase in my monthly cashflow. That will be invested and saved. 

Start with the lowest amount. Then work your way up to the highest amount.

She is most definitely my angel. I love her oh so much!!

Not Allowed to Vlog at Work

This morning the big boss of the terminal wanted to talk to me. I went in his office, and he told me to have a seat. I did then he asked me about vlogs and blogs. He said the main dispatch guy saw something on his phone. He then asked if I blog while at work. I of course denied it, but the way he looked at me he didn't believe me.

He then goes in this thing about wasting company time and it can be an insurance issue. What do they think vlogging is?? The way they make it sound is I'm setting up a mobile TV stage with lots of cameras, lighting, green screens, audio equipment, etc.

How's it "wasting company time"? I did it WHILE working...multi tasking if you will.

How's it an insurance issue?? I never showed anything or anybody's face. I don't get it...

I know how all this got started...

One day during training the guy that trained me asked me about my camera. I told him that I document my life on YouTube and handed him a card. Him being a "Duddly DoRight" kiss ass told the main dispatch guy. The dispatch guy told me I can't do it...I told him ok. I thought I was done with particular situation. This morning proved that wrong.

I swear dude...this new company is full of snitches. Everybody is watching everybody all the time. Then run to the boss if they "don't like" what you're doing. I don't care what anybody does. I'm there to work and make money...which is about the same I was making with Knight.

After my talk with the big boss, and all the asshole-ism... I've been thinking of my future with this new company.  Perhaps after I pay down my debt significantly I'll move on to something else.

I'll let you know...

Playing Catch Up With Money Sucks!

The former loan guy and former employer are to blame. This whole year has been nothing but money drama.

Loan guy had my money tied up for the house we lost. While the former employer didn't give me much work, then yelled at me for not working. The house selling place said they'll return my deposits(after they sell it)...we'll see.

*Credit cards are maxed out.

*Bank account WAS overdrawn for over a month(back in the black as of today).

*Credit Report is jacked up again.

*Had to get an excessively high interest loan.

*Cliffee (Pick up truck) & Lucille need repairs.

*Christina needs some maternity clothes.

*Other things.

I'm doing my absolute best in all things I do, but it doesn't seem good enough. I feel like a failure. Idk...

I am widdling my debt down though. This was my first full check since July. I just need to keep my sleeves rolled up and put in the work. #Broke #Depressed

Usually this thing doesn't work with photos. Giving it another chance

Simplifying This Site

Looking at my often neglected website/blog, I think it looks a bit cluttered and unorganized. I like the color scheme it has, so that will remain. I will have to painstakingly go through every post and organize keywords, putting them in related groups. I'm also gonna be adding a lot more content.

Since I no longer drive a truck long haul anymore, I have plenty of time for this adventure. I also need to go through all my youtube videos and put them in appropriate playlists. This means my twitter will be kinda spammy looking.


Just a heads up...

House Buying is Tough

House buying is an "Olympic Decathlon" for the mind & finances!

It's definitely not for the weak!!

If you think you're tough, buy a house! You will be filleted & fried repeatedly. You will learn very quickly how much you're worth to the financial district. Believe me, you're not the gangster pimp you think you are. Once your "portfolio" starts getting combed through very finely, you'll quickly realize you're a broke ass POS that should've been handling things better. It makes you kick yourself for slacking off. However, it shows you where you've been messing up at. If you're smart, you'll fix it & build it.

You have to run your life like a business...which I was never taught until now.

Old dogs *DO* learn new tricks!

Are you a tough gangster pimp? Prove it tough guy!! Buy a house!!

It's April Again...

April is a very hard month for me, especially the thirteenth. My first and only child was aborted on that day, back in 2005. His name is Nathaniel Tristan, a name given to him from his mother. His mother was from the Philippines, and basically used me to come to the States. There were lots of talk of how much she loved me. Which in the end was false. I being naive, fell for the scam. I truly deeply loved her, and in some ways still do. The past eleven years has been a tough one. Last year I tried to kill myself via alcohol poisoning. Obviously it didn't work. 

My message to guys that think they have to go overseas to get a bride...you don't!! There are lots of good women here in the States. If you still think you need to go somewhere else, be very careful.

Burning Bridges...

Throughout my life I've burned many bridges. Why? That is what I've been seriously contemplating lately. It seems that when things are going good, I sabotage myself. I flip and get angry. I tell everyone to fuck off and say some of the most hateful things. I even "delete" my "friends" on social media. It's like I want to be left alone completely...not wanting anyone or anything in my life. I regret it almost immediately after I have my "tantrum". Flipping on people has been a somewhat reoccurring thing throughout my life. The only thing I can really assume is the reason for these outbursts is the almost constant beatings I received during my childhood by a step dad.

Three Oaks

Earlier this year (2015), I was able to go to my hometown of Avon Park, Florida. I parked the semi at the yard in Lakeland, and hitched a ride to a car rental place. Hertz was the one that gave me a car, a Chevy Spark. It was a really small car, but served its purpose while I was in Florida. The first day of having the car I didn't go anywhere except to grab a bite to eat somewhere, as it took all day to get a ride and to find a car rental place to rent me a car.
