A few of my comic friends have been wondering what has been happening lately and I am going to write it all here.
Last year, my son’s mother came back into my son’s life. I contacted her and found that she has been living in a car with a guy and digging through trash, recycling etc to stay alive. She was strung out on drugs, heroin and other things. I spent a lot of time helping her out, to help get her feet back up. Went with her to her court dates and did everything I could so that my son can have his mother in his life.
At the end of last year I got to the point in my own sickness where I was debilitated a better part of 5 months I couldn’t do anything. I probably would not be alive if it were not for the extraordinary Doctors who did above and beyond to make sure that I would continue to exist . <3 you guys. I am sorry if I cannot tell you more about it but it was life threatening and I am not looking for any sympathy for it. It was my fault I got sick, no it had nothing to do with taking any drugs – I’ve been clean my entire life; heck I don’t even drink.
To add insult to injury while I was getting fixed up my car was stolen, by a 17 year old Hispanic kid who totaled it. I went to the court appearance for him and he got 9 months for it in a juvenile camp. That doesn’t mean I am getting help to get my car back, just means justice was served – for him. I now have to save up everything I can to get a new car. April 1st thanks to my Aunt who lent me the money I was able to buy a new car, got it for $1900. Of course there turned out to be some issues with it, have to replace the tires and fix some cam shaft thing, no idea bout cars.
Recently, my son’s mother who in my opinion was doing incredibly better; I found indeed wasn’t. She had taken all my savings without me knowing it and went and used again. Yesterday she was picked up and taken to jail where she will be doing a few years. My son is devastated, I’m extremely hurt and disappointed. It wasn’t until this morning that I found out that she’s been using for a very long time. Her current boyfriend told me everything when I called him to tell him she was in jail.
I was blind. I wanted to see the best in her for my son’s sake. When she was here helping him, doing things to help with the household I felt confident everything was ok. I just needed it. I needed the friend in my life like that and I was blind. I didn’t want to believe money disappeared the way it did. I wanted to believe it went to buying things for the home. I was completely oblivious to it all.
Today. I found out the truth. I need to now find work again, to cover the bills to be paid. If you know of anyone that needs any web based work done, sites designed/cleaned up; worked on. Custom coding. Anything, please contact me.
For the next couple of days or so I am going to be working on updating ComicPress to be compatible with the latest WordPress. I know people have been wanting that.

Today also I wonder who the heck up there hates me so much. My son’s ROBLOX account was hacked and he lost everything. Thanks to the customer service team with ROBLOX he got his account back but people had already taken everything script wise that he created and equipment and such. He’s talking about suicide – I have no idea what to do or who to call for help for him.
