not so good so far so what

A pastor on wfil a christian radio station out of philadelphia i listen to most nights on my blackberry had a pastor on last night that stated the question i get asked by people the most is why do bad things happen to good people.He said thats not a valed question because nobodys good but God.The question should be why do good things happen to bad people.The answer is Gods mercy and grace his unmerited favor for us that we dont deserve.I never thought about it that way ive asked the question why do bad things happen to good people a lot never the other way around.This message gave me a different view ive been thinking about a lot what are your opinions on this id like to hear.

Getting closer

My journey towards my career started last August when my worker Lee sent an application to vesid. I have been through vesid several times but the other times they would send me to supported employment I would get a employment specialist and start working. This is the first time I requested vocational training. It took several months to get an intake appointment. At the appointment I had to fill out so much paper work about my past I wanted to quit then. A few months later I got to meet with My vesid counselor Tom. Tom made me take vocational tests that told what career would be good for me. Computers was on the list and I've always enjoyed working on the computer. Now I had to take a t.a.b.e.s test a test of basic adult education. http://www.tabetest.com I studied for the test on this website. I was never good in math and I've been out of school for 20 years but I scored a 8.6 grade level in math and 9.6 grade level in reading. I thought I wouldn't be able to get in the program but they told me it was good enough and people out of school so long usually score a lot lower. Now I'm in the program and school starts September 20th now I just have to get usued to being back in school stay tuned

American disability act

The Americans With disabilities act was signed into law on July 26 1990 twenty years ago tomorrow. It was signed by president George. H.w bush. The Ada is a wide ranging civil rights law that prohibits under certain circumstances discrimination based on disabilities. It is similiar to the 1964 civil rights act which made discrimination based on race, religion, sex, national origin illegal. More than 100 groups worked together to ensure its passage. If you want helpful information about the act and to even watch the video of the signing go to http://www.Ada.gov

Procedures that lead to responsibility and change

What do you want
Go from negative to positive
What's the specific picture
What would they have that they don't have now
What would the person be doing in that picture
What would the person be in that picture


What are you doing to get it
Look at action thinking feeling
Focus on persons behavior not the problem


Is it working
Are you getting what you want
Is it working well enough


What choices do you have in front of you
Get them all out
Provide thinking choices as well as action

Of your choices which might work better than now make a plan to try one step than check back to see of its working

Problem solving

Successful problem solvers have five basic beliefs about themselves and life that problem makers don't have
1. What happens to me in life is caused by what I decide
2. I expect good things to happen when I make good decisions
3. I have far more choices in life than it seems
4. Every choice and decision has a consequence
5. No problem in life is so big that I can't deal with it in some way to some degree using I.D.E.A.L
Identify the problem
Describe the possibilities
Evaluate your alternates
Act out a plan
Learn from your actions

Do something

This is an awesome story and website. Miles McPherson was drafted by the rams in 1982 then cut then played four years for the chargers. All this time he was living a destructive life doing cocaine chasing women then one night on the team plane the gospel was shared with him. Now he's a pastor and wrote the book do something. This book tells people if every Christian would volunteer 1 hour a week greater things than what Jesus did could be accomplished.Just by the numbers of the people loving people.This isn't putting down the power of Jesus Jesus himself said this.

A phone in any other name

Now I consider myself at least an average intelligent Guy.I do have lapses in judgement and at times I'm a impulsive Guy.You can ask Mr mondello the other contributer to this blog about my impulsiveness.In September I did a stupid thing I'm paying for and will pay for for a long time.I let a friend add a cellphone to my line.I took 800 dollars up front in cash money.I'm not good with money so I spent the money quickly on clothes and a video camera.My friend and I both have blackberry storms and with the blackberrys you have to have unlimited data plans.Plus we are on 1400 friends and family plan which is way to much but the plan below we went over in minutes.Now I'm stuck with this plan for at least 2 years.If I take him off I will have to pay a big cancellation fee.I'm not gonna so this again I hope but I don't always learn my lesson.Now on a some what related topic because I was a retard for doing this deal.I came across a website that wants people to sign a petition to stop the use of the word retard.sign at. http://www.r-word.org

Orgain

I'm trying to lose weight like millions of other people all over the world.My brother who is a health nut who eats whole wheat pasta turkey meatballs and grass fed beef told me about a organic meal replacement drink called orgain.Orgain comes in chocolate and vanilla the chocolate is pretty good.Orgain has 255 calories 32 carbs and 16 grams of protein.Orgain has 24 vitamins and minerals free of anything artificial and is the equivalent of eating 10 servings of fruits and vegetables.Orgain is pretty exspensive a case of 12 will cost you 22 bucks.That's almost 90 bucks a month but as my brother points out I spend more than that a month eating out and buying junk food.Its at least worth giving it a try.

Lawyers suck

My moms husband told her to leave the house in late October.She started living at my brothers house and retained a lawyer the next day.That day the lawyer made my mom pay five thousand dollars as a retainer.He told my moms the divorce would be final at the end of febuary.The lawyer also gave my moms at big packet of papers that needed to be filled out.My moms husband had a court day for the harassment charge yesterday and the lawyer told my mom as soon as he heard from the court heed call her.she called him twice already and still has found out nothing.I understand lawyers are very busy and have a lot of clients,but I think lawyers should be more responsive to their clients.

Hannas storm

Tony cornheiser a popular personality on espn made remarks on his show pardon the interuption about sports center anchor Hanna storm.He made remarks about storms pervocative dressing on sports center.Cornheiser was suspended for two weeks by espn executive.espn said in a statement those kind of hurtful remarks won't be tolerated.There was a report that espn executives told storm before this incident to tone down her wardrobe.Cornheiser called storm and apologized and told her everything was true that he did make those statements.Women are judged in society much more on their looks than men.Woman aren't always judged on achievement.Some woman use their attractive power to get ahead.I guess life is hard and beauty is God given gift if you have it use it.But not at the expense of other people.

See you in 30

Last night one of my Facebook friends wrote a update that made me think.He wrote surgery tomorrow if I don't wake up ill see most of you in about 30 years.This made me think about many things I don't know the persons belief system of he even believes in a after life or he was just kidding around.Why did he pick 30 years?Most people I know on Facebook are in their 30s.They would be in their 60s in thirty years.Age of 60s is fairly young for this day and age. Did he mean the whole world would end in 30 years?What would I be doing the night before surgery?I doubt I'd be on Facebook.I'd probably be a nervous wreck planning my funeral.Or debating if I should have the surgery.I guess you can tell if you've read my blog I'm negative and see the glass half empty.Maybe this will change but I doubt it.

The man

New York is broke as a joke.Governor Patterson is trying to milk the money out of small business owner like my brother tabes.They use intimidating tactics as well as counting on people don't know their rights.IRS comes into a bar on the night of the college football national championship game.This night is one of the busiest nights of the year for the bar business.Its common sense that a busy night is gonna bring in high revenue and he dosent do business that good every night.So they tell him he isn't charging enough sales tax.Tabes didn't know he has a right to ask them to come BAck another night.They figure we are the mighty IRS we can do what we want.He didn't even want to fight it at first for fear they'd screw him more .That's probably what most people fear.He's fighting it and I hope he wins.

My moms said to me yesterday she never thought shed be a widow and divorced in life by two different men.I never thought I'd be in counseling I don't think anyone gets in life what they want.When your a teen and in your twenties your invincible.When you turn thirty your atitude dramatically changes.I wonder if that's why in love a lot of people think age does make a difference.I don't feel it does but I can see why it could.That leads to another I never thought or I don't ever think ill be married but I'd like to be.

Soap opera part trey

My moms husband was charged with harassment and has to to back to court Thursday.I'm not surprised he pleaded guilty he has always taken responsibility for his actions I have to give him that.Plus there's evidence against him.I don't think this is completely over either tho .He is a vindicative guy who if he likes you he will do a lot to help you, but if you screw him he will screw you ten times harder.He already laid that foundation by threatening to call the IRS.I hope my mom finally realizes he don't love her any more.on valentines day they exchanged presents and went to lunch.I feel he's playing her for a fool and trying to make out better in the divorce.He even said he loves her but he loved his boyfriend to.My counselor told me with a protective order my mom can get in as much trouble for contacting him as he could.I hope my mom dosent learn the hard way.

Soap opera continues

The day before all the drama unfolded was fat Tuesday the day before lent began. My mom decided to make lasagna and have my grandmother over and my brothers and I for dinner. My grandmother brought over audio tapes of my brothers and I from the 1970s when we were very young children.We were singing and talking on the tapes.We were all laughing our heads off over the tapes having a great time. We even heard my dads voice on the tapes which was weird because I forgot what his voice sounded like.Then the next day all hell broke lose with my moms husband.My moms husband did end up in jail its funny how life has such up and down swings.That's one of my biggest fears in life that when everythings going good everything them will go just as wrong.

Dallas derailed

Collin cowherd called Wade philips the marshmello on dallas cowboys sideline.he critized wade for saying the vikings know how to run up the score.I have been a big cowboys fan all my life and i dont think the vikings ran up the score.The cowboys had a lot of hype going into the vikings game most e.s.p.n. commentators thought the cowboys were gonna win big.It was said romo finally became of age and the cowboys defense would beat favre.Obviously this didnt happen romo had no time to throw the ball and they couldnt run the ball.The defense didnt stop anyone.Wade philips sure isnt his pop bum philips and wade will probably get fired.Its ironic that rex ryans father legend buddy ryan maybe did pass down his coaching genes to his son.Its way to early to judge rex even if they do lose to the colts.On a brighter note for the cowboys Chris burman on n.f.l. blitz said this cowboy team reminded him of the 91 cowboy team,meaning they may be a couple years away from superbowl champions.Lets hope so cowboy fans.
