Busy Man I am, But I figgured it is time for a post

Hey Y'all!
Or at least whoever still checks by here since I have given a lack of attention to this blog. A once busy man, I have become even more busy with hours that permit me to get little sleep, so something has to suffer and unfortunatly it has been here.

This thing with the bar has really taken off. I spend alot of my time there helping out. Right now untill somethings get settled down in other areas that involve me with the bar and we get a good view on things I am considered part time as needed. That should be over at the end of the month. Our clubs clubhouse is comming along nicely, but I have not put in as much time there as I should have. I am trying to spend more time with my dad and "fit" him into my schedule, which I feel guilty about. Me and C don't talk on the phone as much as we use to durring the week, But she came down this weekend and spent time with me and it was wonderfull. She went above and beyond what I could expect of her too. She stayed up over 24 hours the first night down just so she could be with me and the next night she made it as far as she could untill she had to go to our motel room and crash.

Ya know life can take a man down many winding roads. Since some of the recent events in my life I find this to be true. There are two people in my life that I have found myself neglecting that I love very much. Currently the way things are going I don't know if I can revrse it or find a way to overcome it. The first person is my dad. when I come in late at night and I see him lying in bed old and frail (he keeps a light on to see by at night) My heart is some times over whelmed. I know he is not going to be around forever and I don't make the most of the time I do have with him. But I gotta have a life too.

The other person is Mama. She has felt it and expressed it that I am not as close to her as I use to be, but is ever so loyal to stand by me and want the best for me. I don't know what it is about people, but some folks I get real attached to and she is one of them. I try to keep up, but I am just not able to be around and under her wing like I use to. But ya know my heart wells up inside me when I think of her and my heart is fond, but still it is not enough to bridge the gap that I have placed between us by my current pursuits. I wish I knew how to overcome it, but I can't find a way without doing the things I need to in life right now.

I am not riding the bike as much as I could or should, but that has been a personal choice. I am still active in the club as much as possible and my loyalty is there to the club. There are alot of things going on in the MC comunity around here, but then again that is nothing new. There is always someting going on.

To all my friends and family and to a fellow named Grey Biker who was the first blogger I came across before I knew what a blog was, And to my other blog buddies, Know you are all still in my thoughts even if I may seem absent from time to time.

Back for a moment and gone in a flash again!

Hey Y'all!
I know I haven't been around in a week. I have been super duper busy with one thing or another and have spent some time out of town with C too.

I promised I would tell you what has been going on that will result in some employment for me.
O.K. Here's the skinny. If you read here you know that usually I go to my club brothers bar on wednesday nights. If you also remeber I was bouncing part time at a bar way out in the sticks. Well the bar out in the sticks a few months ago went belly up and closed. The owner got married and soon after that he wanted to sell the place. My club brother who ownes the bar I go to on wednesday nights has bought the bar out in the sticks. It has been a long drawn out drama involving bankruptcy court, judges and lawyers and banks. It got right down to the wire within hours of him getting the place but he got it. Now he has got all his licencing done and we have done alot of remodling to the bar. We are hoping to open on friday. There is still some more hoops to jump thru and alot of hard work to be done.

I am not quite shure exactly what I will be doing there or how many days I will be working or what my pay will be or anything. My club brother will take care of me though and I know this place is going to take off. When we open up is when we will discuss all that stuff. For right now we are focusing on getting the place open and ready.

I have been also doing some work on our new clubhouse that we just got recently. I was there tonight painting and moving stuff around. It is hot at both places and I get a sweat bath all day at the bar and then another one at the clubhouse.

I did get a few days out of town with C that I must say were quite enjoyable. Just relaxing and hanging out and enjoying each others company. I couldn't be with her on the day of the fourth, but circumstances worked out that we could be together for awhile before then. It's tough for me and her sometimes because of the long distance geographicaly between us. I came home and spent time with my club family on the fourth so I could be around to take care of all these things I have going on. I wish she lived here or all the things I got going on from my club, to my dad, to my "job" were up there. I know C reads here and I just want to say to her before God and the Internet, "Hang in there with me baby and I'll hang in there with you too. It may not always be easy but it's worth it"

As much as I have going on, I don't know when I will have time to post again. Y'all don't give up on me either.

Take Care!
