It was supposed to be mostly sunny today. That's still what the forecast says. But it has been overcast since before doubt. The color of despair. Our high was 41F, with a windchill of 38F. The meteorologists hereabouts are dropping the ball

Dear Beast and Spooky

[junkietroll]

It's been one of the best Christmas weeks for me and my partner Mary Esther. My son, Isaac, who I hadn't seen since he was five years old, came to Massachusetts with his family; his wife Chika and my two grandchildren Sena and Hugo. They are all taller than me except for Chika. Japanese; they live in Hawaii and my son is a stone mason, not an apprentice. You can see them on my Facebook page.
I'm glad you're moving back to this area; I hope it goes well. Do the best you can with your teeth. I needed braces but never got them; my parents could only afford to get them for my sister; "boys don't need straight teeth." Then I became a heroin addict for over 30 years and that finished them off (my teeth).
I don't do any drugs or drink anymore and my whole life has changed. I gradually got to know my son over the phone; we talked for many times and long times. My daughter Jasmine doesn't really like me but 1 out of 2 ain't bad.
Life is better than I deserve. I'm a home owner now and I was homeless and in and out of prison in my younger years. All drug arrests; many of them; the police hated me where I grew up and where I moved too because I was a pot dealer when it wasn't legal. So it goes. I don't regret my life; I write about it and get paid for it. I was a Substance Use Disorder counselor at a place called Cambridge Cares About AIDS. In my office I had my Certification on the wall plus my CORI on the wall so the people I counseled took me seriously. Some got clean, some didn't, some died. Life is like that.
I love your writing and I'm looking forward to Bradbury Weather. I bought the Limited package from Bill. Peace!
