October 26, 2012 @ 11:29pm, my brother Mark passed into the arms of Jesus. Officially, Hospice called it @ 12:20am on October 27. But I was there. I witnessed his last breath. 2 days ago was harder than I anticipated every day since Mark died. Not just because of that 1st anniversary of Marks promotion to heaven, but also because on the 2nd anniversary of October 26 of 2011, I closed on the purchase of my wifes dream house, worked 6 days a week for 5 months, and then we moved into it; spent finished it 5 months later (updates included 43 new windows, siding, gutting kitchen and baths, completely re-wired electrical with now 2-panels, completely re-plumbed, new plaster ceilings, every wood surface stripped and refinished (floors, trim, bookcases, buffets, 2 sets of kitchen cabinets and granite counter-tops, arches, etc. and added finished basement with egress and 1 bedroom, 1 full bath lock-off apartment; 2 new 40 gallon H2O tanks; water softener system installed) just a month before Mark died it was finally down to a few paintbrushes full if stuff to trim out; and I was evicted and served divorce papers 7 weeks after Mark died; she now owns her dream house paid for with my cash (no debt) and owns it at a fraction of my costs because she was so strategic and tactical in her conspiracy of over 4 years to defraud and divorce me and take everything she could steal from me legally when the judge awarded her 50% of Fair Market Value rather than a 90/10 equity split she should have gotten with only putting 8.25% of her own cash into as my now Ex-wife. Then, to cap it off, on this D-Day of Anniversaries, she denied me my time with Sophia this past Saturday because it inconvenienced her as her mother. And things like that have only gotten worse since Saturday. One word for the educated: Charlatan. Google it if you dont know it. I know the face that will come up with it. But Knowing Mark is in heaven is a GREAT thing (I think people say stupid things like that to mourners just because it helps them deflect heavy emotions and makes THEMSELVES feel better, not the recipient or mourner; people who know Jesus already know that we go to a better place called heaven when we die, so just be present in the moment and weep and be sad with us; mourners dont need quick fixes and platitudes. We need outlets and strong shoulders with GOD hugs. Yes, GOD/GOOD, whatever you want too call it. Its all GOD if it is Good); but the highlight of this October 26, 2013 was taking pictures and meeting new people Ill probably never see again @ the first Halloween party, then standing between a new potential friend and her stalker that night @ a another public costume party where everyone who was wearing masks KNEW they were fake as opposed to those wolves in sheeps clothing who dont know they are wolves because they look and smell like sheep (even with a daily bath; they clean up real well for Sundays and spotlight venues within their church jobs); so that was a good-deed thing; Acting as a biblical Peace-maker later as two women were about to kill each other only cost me 2 hours of my time and $62 for a round of drinks (not for me, Silly! I still dont drink. I bought for the would-be jail-birds and their friends, Goofy!!); Nobody went to jail on my watch, and I quite possibly made some new friends who are far from Jesus who kept saying to me, we want you to party with us a lot more in the future on our boats and at our condos. Well, isnt that just Special?? Id say PRICELESS, since I had to pay a high Price to even be in such an environment to be there and do anything. Dont cry for me. Its not easy being me, I know, but someone has to do it; so it might as well be the one God created on purpose for a purpose and by HIS design and has been training like an Iron Man for it. Duh, that would be Me! God is faithful. So am I; well, at least... so far. ;)
