Good Afternoon, FS Warriors! I wish I could say that yesterday evening was uneventful, but it wasn't. Been dealing with a psycho neighbor that lives across the way from me. He is a real nutcase; spent 4 years in the state penn because he was out of control and took some woman hostage. The man does not have the capability for reason, and how could he? He doesn't shut his own mouth long enough to hear the other side of the story. I put some dirt in my drainage ditch and leveled it out. Technically, the ditch is in the village's right of way, so I don't own it. But I still have to mow it and maintain it. So, apparently his fury was in retaiiation for the board making some citizens move some homemade signs out of the Village's right of way. This is so petty and insignificant. You would think! He came over and stood outside my fence and yelled obsenities at me for over 30 mintues, calling me the "N" word, a Spic, a lazy F*** (because he knows I paid someone to mow my yard ????) and idiot (at least 50 times). I just told him, "Man, the punishment doesn't fit the crime; what the hell is the matter with you? If you have a grievance, call the police or take it to the board." Geez. Unfortunately, he is within his second amendment rights until he infringes upon mine. So today, while I am at work, he comes over with a little tractor, picks up the dirt and deposits it on the hillside. Then he comes out there and takes the dirt and gives it to another neighbor. I told my wife to just call the sheriff's dept.; I'm at work and I just want it on the record this guy is being a jerk. It has nothing to do with him; plus I only put enough dirt in there to keep my tractor from rolling over when I mow it. The Deputy told my wife, "Well, your husband didn't ask the board if he could put the dirt there, and the half-wit didn't get permission to move it." So, I'll propose to the board that we pay for an engineering study, build an actual drainage ditch with drainage tile and landscape over it, instead of what I did for free. So, I was pretty spun up when I went to bed. I wanted to reach out and touch somebody. Unfortunately, our laws are designed to protect the offender. If I go out there and slam dunk him, I'm going to jail. The president of the board doesn't have grit to take control of a board meeting when he goes on a rampage. I would have had him thrown out for violating the rules of order and after 2 or 3 times of that, he would have been barred from stepping foot on the grounds during a board meeting. OK, I'm done. Pissed, but done!

Here it is about 2:30 and I've only eaten around 300 calories thus far. Been doing pretty good the last couple of days. Just trying to keep the portion sizes smaller and stay away from high calorie useless carbs. It seems to be working good, but every now and then, I experience what it must feel like for a diabetic (or hypoglycemic?) to feel a sugar low. Makes me have to eat something whether I want to or not. Sometimes, just a coffee with a little non dairy creamer is just enough.

Anyway, thanks for listening to my rantings. I have worship practice tonight. I try to turn these things over to the Lord these days, and not let it interfere with my sleep. Been pretty tough lately; I want to solve it myself, even though I know the outcome wouldn't go so well. Have a great evening. Toodles!
