New Blog replacing Determination

 In life there is always change, and that being said Determination will be replaced by this new blog. I may bring some of the post from that blog to here.

The last two plus years have been an adventure to say the least. I want to share my journey. It is my hope I can help people that are stuck in a nightmare and they think they will not escape. My journey has taken me to the alter a few times. because sometimes that is where you have to leave your problems.

I will be talking about this more later, but for now take care, see you soon

The Last Laugh

Image
It was the grand finale no one wanted. For over a century, Brightworld Amusement Park had been the crown jewel of summer. Generations had grown up beneath its ferris wheel, and entire romances were born in the glow of the Tilt-A-Whirl’s flashing lights. But in the last decade, something changed. Every year, the lines got longer — not because of the rides, but because of the complaints. The cotton candy was “too sugary.” The roller coaster was “too scary.” The carousel horses were “too unrealistic.” Even the fireworks were “too loud,” though no one could agree on whether that was a good or bad thing. Management tried everything. Softer fireworks. Adjustable-speed roller coasters. A “non-spinning” Tilt-A-Whirl that didn’t whirl at all. Still, the complaints poured in, faster than tickets could be sold. Finally, one gray September morning, the owner, Mr. Lawson, unlocked the front gate for the last time. The rides were silent, their bright colors dulled by dust. A handful of curious local...

June 30th: A Historic Day For Cleveland Sports

Image
June 30, 2025, will go down as one of the most unforgettable days in Cleveland sports history. It wasn’t about a game-winning shot or a dramatic comeback—it was about the future. On this one day, two major announcements changed the trajectory of Cleveland sports for generations to come. The WNBA Returns to Cleveland After more than two decades away, professional women’s basketball is coming back to Cleveland. The WNBA officially announced the return of a franchise to the city, reigniting a passion that’s been simmering since the days of the Cleveland Rockers. The return of the WNBA marks not only a revival of elite women’s basketball in Northeast Ohio but also a powerful symbol of the city’s growing commitment to equity in sports. Cleveland is no longer just a passionate sports town—it’s becoming a model for inclusive, community-rooted athletics. Fans are already buzzing with excitement to welcome world-class talent to the court once again. A New Era for the Cleveland Browns: Dome Stad...

Reflections on Retirement: Five Months In

Image
On January 1st, I retired from work. Now, halfway through my fifth month, I find myself wondering if I made the right decision. My original plan was to pick up a part-time job—something low-paying so it wouldn’t impact my Social Security benefits. But life had other plans. Shortly after retiring, my mother fell ill. It took me three long, stressful months to get her placed in a nursing home. I didn’t have Power of Attorney, so I had to involve Adult Protective Services (APS). The process was messy and emotionally draining. My anxiety was through the roof. (I’ll share more about that in another blog post.) These days, I spend more time reading the Bible and getting involved in church activities, which helps keep me grounded. Still, being home alone can stir up anxiety and stress, especially when your mind drifts to all the problems waiting to be solved. Thankfully, I’ve found a few escapes. I make good use of my Cedar Point and Kalahari season passes, often enjoying them with family. I’...
