FRUIT STICKER

Change. We all fear it. Even I. I love seeing and experiencing new things, but in my comfort zone I like it the same. As we get older we appreciate things more (hopefully) and with that we tend to feel safer with things we are familiar with. Don’t feel bad it is natural and in my opinion, which means nothing, normal. A a quick side note on the things I write. My opinion is mine and I share it in hopes of making others think about what THEIR opinion is. Never let people you don’t know influence your opinion because I assure you they are not thinking you. Okay now back to change. You might have some in your sofa.

I saw a news clip a few years ago that stayed with me for some reason. I think it was just so random, but it made me think which is my favorite type of stimulation. The news crew was talking to shoppers coming out of a grocery store asking this question. “Would you rather have stickers on your fruit and veggies or a laser imprint??” My first thought was NO. I don’t want no mind control crap going into my fruit and vegetables that I never eat. The man isn’t going to sneak that one by me. I’m way too smart for them.

Now I’m older and buy apples, tomatoes, and other stuff multiple times a week. I make the world’s best salsa by the way. Legit. Now I don’t care if I’m being watched by the man from my Envy apples. Did you know the more little white spots on an apple the sweeter it is? At least that is what the sign at Trader Joe’s said. I love that grocery store. Off topic again. If you chop up fresh fruit and veggies the stickers suck. I forget to take them off sometimes, you gotta dig them off with a finger nail, then you gotta stick them somewhere, and to be perfectly clear, I hate those bastards so much. Laser everything. No more eff’in stickers.

This includes people. We can meet someone that is outside our normal and think whew what a piece of work he/she is, but once we are around them more we start to see benefits of a new different friend. By different I mean someone with new crazy ideas, stories, experiences, dreams, perspectives, and love. Try to remember that change slash new isn’t always bad, but an opportunity to that might make things easier and more fun. I’ve found no matter where someone comes from, no matter what they look like, who they sleep with, how they got to me, I can make them smile. I’m pretty amazing like that.

The world is pretty eff’in awesome and full of many different fruits and vegetables. I believe it would be a real shame to not at least try all of them at least once.

Be kind to each other and do random acts of kindness expecting nothing in return.

Apple Cinnamon Roll

What up?? I have so many things to write about causing them to be all mixed together in my head. Maybe that is why I’m crazy. Or maybe it is still the simple fact that I live for chaos. The right kind of chaos of course. I follow politics pretty closely, but decided a few years ago I wouldn’t harp on it in my blog. The main reason is I need a break from all that BS and my overall goal is not to make you think like me. I already have that covered. Your TV won’t tell you that though. You have to agree with this side or you’re a ____. No you have to believe us or you’re a ____. Be yourself. Think for yourself. Most importantly learn for yourself. Don’t just accept what some a-hole on TV tells you. They have an AGENDA!

The thing is their agenda doesn’t matter in the real world. At least it should not. People screaming they will leave the country if this person gets elected or that person are eff’ing idiots and unfortunately never actually leave. All that talk is pointless BS that doesn’t make the world better. Learn to read the language of actions and in doing so you’ll be able to see people for who they really are. Now take inventory on your actions. Actions you are doing that will not make the world better should be stopped.. Sitting down on a road stopping people from going to work is not making the world better. Lucky for you I have an example. Why?? Because I love to make the world better.

Yesterday I made apple cinnamon rolls from scratch. I made homemade caramel to pour over them before and after baking. My first attempt at these ended up on the floor. It was about 11 PM and I was adding flour to the yeast mix and BLAM. I get a powerful spasm in my back and stomach which causes me to throw the bowl. Both of them. One with the eggs, butter, yeast, and the other a large bowl of flour. One big spasm and it was on me. The floor. My counter. It covered my trash can and the rug I have by the door. Now at 11:15 PM, I had a ginormous mess to clean and no cinnamon roll dough. It wasn’t Trumps or Bidens fault. Remember that.

Stupid mess. It took forever to clean. The ingredients mix together better when they are room temp, but I only set out enough to make the dough once. I did not plan ahead in case I had a “Timmy” moment and threw the bowl of almost dough against my wall. I had to clean myself, my wheelchair, the walls, the cupboards, you name it. At this point you may ask why was I baking these stupid cinnamon rolls anyway? Great question. Answer is: I just wanted to do something kind. I planned to take them into the rehab hospital for the PT and OT’s that work there. No special occasion, no birthday, nothing except I wanted to make some people smile while eating 10,000 calories per bite.

When is the last time you did something to give others a smile?? Take cookies in for co-workers?? Mow your neighbors lawn?? Go down and play checkers with the people in the nursing home?? Nope not you. You’re too busy arguing politics online with some moron you’ve never met in person. By the way that is the biggest waste of energy and time ever. When you are on your deathbed will you think “Damn, I wish I spent more time online arguing with people I didn’t know??”

No you won’t. I say stop it. Just stop being a creator of negative. Here is a piece of FknBucky advice or wisdom. Liberal, Conservative, Gay, Straight, Non-binary, Black, White, Trans, Lesbian, Fag, Midget, Disabled, fat, stupid, Man, Woman, Birthing person, or any of the other labels you choose to hide behind. Not me. I am a human. That is it. As for all that other crap. I DON’T EFF’ING CARE. I don’t judge you on those labels so why tell me?? Just shut up and make some awesome cinnamon rolls.

I wake up everyday and decide to have a positive attitude. Doesn’t always work, but I try. I remind myself to at least one act of kindness everyday for no reward. I just want other people to feel special and loved in this crazy world. If more people spent their time doing random acts of kindness the world would change overnight. Go watch a sunset. Just put your phone down and watch natures show. Wake up early and watch the sunrise. Listen to a storm. No facebook, Instagram, and no phone. Put the phone down and have tea party with your daughter. Take your nephews indoor skydiving. Let a little girl hold your service dog while you eat lunch. Pay for a strangers meal without telling them. Give someone a hug (not the creepy kind). Give someone a compliment. Be a friend to someone that needs one.

It isn’t the governments job to make the world better. It is YOURS!

I don’t share these things to make people say “you’re so nice Bucky”. Truth is I don’t care about all that. I simply want to inspire others to do similar things.

Round 2 Un-flippin-believable.

I think I have to stop writing. The world is just not working for me. I can’t make this stuff up and honestly who would want to. This day has been going awesome. I got a ton of work done this AM, had a fantastic Yoga session with Moonbeam (greatest yoga/life coach ever), and ate healthy all day cause FknBucky needs to lose some FknWeight. Yesterday I took a pretty hard fall which happens but not that often. It sucked and I had to let go of the anger immediately or I would be pissed off all day. Wow that is strong Bucky. Yep, not easy, but very necessary to live a happy life.

I have no idea why as my spasms are usually much more manageable in the afternoon, but today like a rogue wave in the Bering Sea my legs decided Ef You Bucky and went for it again. Luckily I went over backwards this time so I could use the back of my head on the concrete floor to soften my fall. Yeah that will and did leave a mark. I can only assume it happened again so I can write it up for you to read. I just don’t understand sometimes why everything has to go to level 10 with me. It is always that way and I just accept it, but damn some days it just plain sucks.

Luckily the screen on my IPAD PRO got smashed this time. Having nice things is weird to me so thankfully it is now cracked and broken. Not just the screen protector, but deep down the screen is dust. Keeping my awesome lucky streak alive I called around to see about getting my IPAD repaired and it will be at least $650. $650 I didn’t need to spend 15 minutes ago. Thanks leg spasms. You’re the best at making sure I never get ahead. This sucks a lot, but hey this is FknBucky and we make sure shit is really jacked up when we screw up. The screen and parts needed are indefinitely back ordered, my warranty time with Apple Care is past, and my only option is to buy a new IPAD. To replace this one with the same features is going to cost me $1,500 that again I didn’t have to spend 20 minutes ago. If I try to give myself the “let it go” speech right now there is a good chance I’ll beat myself to death with my broken IPad.

That isn’t true. I am literally allowing the anger and frustration melt away thru this keyboard right now. I haven’t fallen in a while so to have it happen two days in a row is baffling, but I can’t change it. Crying about it and feeling sorry for myself isn’t going to make it all better or allow me to go back in time and stop it from happening. I remind myself that it is only money. The bump on the back of my head could have been worse as a lot of people hit their heads and don’t wake up. I am refusing to let this ruin my day. I did plan to meet a friend at the dog bar, but I backed out of that plan simply because I need to shower and I’m not ready for the carnage that goes on there.

Whatever it is in your life I promise you can overcome it. No matter how badly you want to stay mad at that person you need to just let it go. That anger is robbing you of precious time not the person you are mad at. I am not going to let my leg spasms take control of my emotions and let them waste my time. There is no difference in what I should do today from yesterday. Letting it go immediately yesterday was the right thing to do and it is the right thing to do now. But it is two days in a row Bucky. Yep it sure was and that sucks. Giving more energy and time to the “fall” will not change a thing.

If letting go was easy I wouldn’t need to write a blog about it. I will get a new screen or IPad finding the money somewhere. Who really needs two kidneys? I mean really I’m just being greedy having a spare around. I’m sure after all the drinking and drugs I did in my past I can get $30-40 bucks for the left one. The right one and I go way back, we actually dated the same girl back in the day. There is a history there. Here is the end all deal. I will figure it out. I always do and today will be no different.

So let my fall be your teacher. Letting go is a skill and one that you have to practice or it doesn’t work.

I am going to tie myself down tomorrow as enough is enough. For the record I had a great blog idea before this happened. Guess it will have to wait for tomorrow.

Be kind to others.
