Alright friends, here’s the straight truth… I’ve been out of work for the past six months recovering from major surgery. The bills didn’t stop rolling in while I was out of action—and now they’re starting to catch up like wolves on the trail. So I’m doing what I can with what

Alright friends, here’s the straight truth… I’ve been out of work for the past six months recovering from major surgery. The bills didn’t stop rolling in while I was out of action—and now they’re starting to catch up like wolves on the trail. So I’m doing what I can with what

Let’s see who’s real. I’ve been out of work for 6 months recovering from surgery. The bills? They didn’t wait. So I’m offering my best weapon—my photography. For just $5, you can download one of my images as wallpaper for your phone, tablet, or PC. It’s not charity. It’s value

Quick reminder, friends… A few days ago, I asked for a little help: $5 for a downloadable image from my gallery—real photography, not AI fluff. Nature, wildlife, landscapes… the kind of stuff I’ve built my name on. So far, just three people have stepped up. $42 raised. And

Welp... back to work at last... and is a lot tougher after six months off than I thought it would be.

Day 1: The Return of the Crippled Jedi So… today was my triumphant return to work after six months off for Achilles tendon surgery. Let me tell you, if I had any lingering faith in humanity, it died somewhere between hour four of relentless physical misery and the moment I

Day 2 – The Reckoning Woke up feeling like I got thrown down a flight of stairs, dragged back up, and kicked back down again… twice. Every joint, every muscle, every tendon is screaming in protest. I’m pretty sure my Achilles tendon just texted its lawyer. And yet… here I

Day 2 – Aftermath: Welcome Back to the Meat Grinder If Day 1 was a wake-up call, Day 2 was a full-blown mugging. Every step I took today felt like a bad life decision. Every movement was a reminder that healing and hell have way too much in common. I went in sore... and came

Recent shenanigans of the deer population in my backyard... Note... the momma deer has been coming around for months... I guess she felt it was safe to distribute her offspring in my yard... Note, I live in the middle of a city, not in a rural area... also note that I'm an avid

Day 3 – The Meat Grinder Calleth I woke up this morning to the sound of my alarm clock and the faint whisper of the meat grinder calling my name. Not in a friendly, “Come have a pint” way… more in a “We’re not done chewing on you yet” way. The aches from Day 1 have settled in

Day 3 – Damage Report Status: Alive… technically. Upper body: Feels like I’ve been used to break in a new baseball bat. Lower body: Knees are auditioning for a breakfast cereal commercial—snap, crackle, pop. Feet: Somewhere between “tenderized” and “feral cat toy.” Back: Filed

So here I am… crawling into Day 4 of the great “back to work” saga, wondering what fresh hell the meat grinder has in store for me today. Let’s break it down: Scent? Oh, that’s easy. I’m radiating a fine blend of industrial sweat, leftover Tiger Balm™, and something vaguely

Day 4 – Aftermath Report: Heat, Hurt, and Holding On Today’s high was 91°F… which means the detailing bay was hotter than a devil’s armpit inside a blast furnace. The air felt like soup. My skin stuck to everything. I was sweating so much I could’ve been detailed myself.

Day 5… The honeymoon phase is over—if it ever existed. My muscles have unionized, my joints have filed formal complaints, and my back is negotiating with my knees to just quit entirely. The howl of the industrial car vacuum and pressure washer isn’t background noise

I don’t talk about this much, but it’s time to be blunt. Injuries aside, I’ve got two incurable illnesses riding shotgun with me for the rest of my life — Type 2 diabetes and Pernicious Anaemia. They won’t take me tomorrow, but they’ll get me eventually. Maybe a piece at a time,
