Week away from work!

Every now and then I’m in a position to take a few days off at work because of something going on in my family, distant and close family.   I’ve got a Sister that I have been helping these past few months with anything and everything that involves my oldest daughter.  Allyson, I’m sure you might not know who but she is my oldest daughter and has Cerebral Palsey.

Cerebral Palsey is an umbrella term encompassing a group of non-progressive, non-contagious motor conditions that cause physical disability in human development, chiefly in the various areas of body movement.

As you can see she is always smiling and happy, I’ve never complained about her to anyone.  I never really knew what people went through when they have a special needs kid to have to raise until recently.  Everything I’ve done this week is to help my sister, who is taking a week long vacation and who takes care of Allyson for me.  I must say when she offered to this, I didn’t know how she was going to do this but it has been a real blessing in my life because of all that is happening in my personal life.

This week was a Handful!

I’m not saying it has been all bad but it has been a really busy week.    I didn’t know what to blog about on my Friday post but I thought it would be good to tell you some stuff about me so you can understand where I sometimes come from when I blog about topics!

  1. My Hometown is Hopkinsville, KY.   This will always be where my heart is.   Nothing else has ever been anywhere closest to my heart than that little city!

  2. I’m a University Of Kentucky (Affiliate Link) Fan, I’ve got Hats and Umbrellas that say UK all over it!  I don’t watch all the time but when I do, I don’t stop watching for the game.

  3. I am in a Club call Starfleet Command, and I am always helping them with their website and other such things.  I simply love this group because everyone is so nice and we all like Science Fiction.

  4. I simply love to watch Japan Animation.   This is simply best part of how to draw animation.   Some of my favorite shows and movies  are Naruto Shippunden(Affiliate Link), Howls Moving Castle, Ponyo(Affiliate Link), and anything that has a lot of action in it.

  5. I’ve got High Blood pressure.  My Blood Pressure isn’t extreme but it is higher than the doctor would like.   He always says I should get more exercise but I really don’t have time for it or like it!

  6. I’m a little Over weight, again that goes back to my blood pressure problem.   They seem to be hand in hand, the doctors is constantly telling me to start exercising.

  7. I’ve got Dyslexia, it was much harder in high school with this problem than it is today.  I’ve worked hard to keep under control and I can now read and write much more proficiently than I could when I was young.

  8. Number 8 is of course about my CP Daughter!

I’ve done this to let you into my life.   If you would like to see more pictures of my 3 adorable kids, please leave comments below.   I’ve had fun doing this post and I hope it helped you to see a part of me that a lot of people never really get to see all the time .   I’d love to hear your comments and questions, please feel free to contact me either through the comments or through email(paul at this domain).   I hope you have a great Friday and remember to pass it on to others where you can!
