Well, I don’t think you can call it a race issue for sure. Police brutality is definitely a problem. My brother when he was 20 picked up the neighbor’s trash after her garbage can was knocked over. She called the cops on him. A state trooper showed up. Nothing illegal about picking up your neighbor’s trash, but I watch the jerk body slam my brother and arrest him. However, after taking him to the police station he was let go, because he didn’t commit a crime. Perfect example of police abusing their power. I could name other examples of a white exterminator who an officer made crawl on his stomach and beg for his life before shooting him or another white guy named toby that had the same thing happen to him that happened to George Floyd. Black people have more confrontations with police than any other ethnicity so they suffer the brunt of police brutality because they are then more likely to encounter a bad cop. The last time police brutality was brought to the lime light was in 2016, and three of the officers involved in Gray’s death were black. I also think the BLM is very hypocritical. 97% of All black murders are by other black people and only 1% is by police including justified and unjustified killings. I think the media wants to make it seem to be about race, but to me the real issue is that there are some cops who get a power trip and abuse their position, but who knows.

The craziest thing to me is that with all these protests that have taken place since the lock down started according to the media the protestors should basically all be infected since they didn’t follow social distancing and cloth masks are worthless for blocking the Coronavirus. They should then be spreading it and the death toll should be outrageous, but I doubt all that is going to happen. What do you think of defunding the police?

Yeah, 2020 has been crazy. Yeah, it was a nice visit. The older they get though the more bratty they become. I really wish my siblings would have been better parents and chose better partners. Ryan is going to end up dead from drugs. Dylan may very well kill someone. Vanessa is going to have so extreme depression and other disorders. Kenzie and Sadie are helpless and bratty. Sammy is going to be a spoiled brat, and Amyiah is the best off, but she still seems a bit arrogant. Smh, I’m glad I don’t have kids :P. Its just too crazy today. Yeah, same here. We are now in the green and after this it’ll be normal. However, they are talking about closing in the fall again which I find really annoying, but that is then. So I don’t focus on it, because who knows in August Aliens might invade xD haha.

Yeah, that would be a bummer if he had to stay quarantined for an extra two weeks. I’m glad she enjoyed it. I’m sure she is looking forward to getting to hug you and the rest of her family again. I’m surprised there has been no mention in the news about Hilary Clinton’s trial or that congress is investigating Obama. Just the riots and that Minneapolis is going to dissolve their police department. I find it ironic that this whole think started over a dirty cop killing an unarmed black man, but last week seven black people were killed by rioters. Then all the police that are getting ambushed and killed as though all of them are dirty cops. Anyways, my nieces were down this weekend. I had a good time, but I’m also always glad when they leave haha. They can be a bit much. Especially Mackenzie, she just whines so much about everything. Did you get to hang out with Chris?

Well, I hope he is back by now :P. Well, I’m sure she was thrilled to get to see you guys ^~^. Yeah we ended up hanging out over last weekend. I hope some of your plans will work out. Tomorrow more places will be open, but with these stupid riots smh. I agree that the police officers that killed George Floyd should go to jail, but you mean to tell me the last time a police officer killed someone illegally was back in 2016. Its just crazy to me how bad stuff always happens during election years, but that is my conspiracy theorist side xD haha. I got moved to 4, 10 hour days and my first four day weekend is next week. I sorta want to go somewhere but just found out yesterday :P. Anyways, how are you doing?

Yeah, kids get sick so easily and pass it on :P. That sounds nice. Getting to hang out with someone goes a long way for me during this lock down. I’m glad things are going well ^~^. So did you guys get to meet up? What did you do during the weekend? How did the drive by visit with your grandmother go? I get that. I never pay attention either unless its a day off haha. I guess if I want to go back to school now is my chance xD haha. Congratulations on finishing so well Nicole. You are awesome ^~^. My weekend went well. My nieces came down. Sunday night my buddy Tim texted me to go fishing around 8:30. He told me a general area where he and his brothers were at, but never gave me a specific area. So I drove around for about 20 minutes and left rather annoyed. But I should have just turned him down. My normal bed time is about 9pm since I typically wake up between 4am-5am. I’m also not very good company when I am tired. When I left to go home my brake light came on. So Today I rotated my tires and checked my brakes. The pads need changed so I’m going to use my mom’s car tomorrow and hopefully get my into the shop to have them changed. Tomorrow it’ll be back to the daily grind. My life seems so boring now haha. Before it was off to this place and back to that place. Now I’m stationary and solitary. I think I’ll keep this job until at least the fall, but after that I need to find a job that’ll let me move as I please. This same old same old makes my life seem so bland xD haha, but I try to stay positive, because I’d rather have a bland life than a bad one :P. Anyways, I am messaging you right before I go to bed. So I hope you have a good night and sweet dreams Nicole ^~^. I’ll talk to you later.

Yeah, driving school bus for a bunch of kids helps instill good hygiene unless you want to be sick from them all the time xD haha. That’s good that she is still able to keep busy and stuff. Yes, all the big retail stores are making a bunch of money smh. How did your visit with Chris go? Yeah, it amazes me how expensive a piece of glass is. Fortunately, it was just my screen protector that cracked, and it isn’t a bad break. I’m sure your grandmother will be glad to see you guys ^~^. I don’t know what I’ll do this weekend. I have monday off thanks to Memorial day. I am thunking about seeing if one of my brother’s want to take my canoe out onto the river and fish or do something, but I suppose that will depend on if I’m feeling lazy or active tomorrow xD haha. I am doing a bit more work, but things are still slow. Did you see how colleges are dropping entrance exams haha? Some are even dropping SATs and ACT scores xD haha.

Much to my surprise they are not going to have me get tested. I have a feeing though that they aren’t going to have me do any work for a few days. They didn’t give me any jobs today. Even if I did contract it, there isn’t much concern for people under 40. Unless they have major health issues which I don’t believe I do so I should be fine :P. Thanks for your concern though Nicole it is sweet of you to care ^~^. Bummer, I feel bad for your mom. It would be hard having plans to go back to work only to have them smashed. I think that the politicians have all continued to get paychecks while forcing other to go without is what angers me the most about all of this. I think every politician and judge should have at least half of their pay cut since they are forcing so many to go without work. I’ve never watched breaking bad. I’ve seen clips and part of shows, but never watched it all the way through :P. You should go hang out with friends. The next plan I have is to get a motorcycle license. Hopefully, come August I’ll have enough paid time off to go on a mini vacation and visit my friend Joe in Florida. I dropped my phone today and now the screen protector is cracked. Fortunately, I am pretty sure it was only the screen protector that cracked :P. I’m so bored lol. I just keep telling myself at least I’m getting paid xD haha.

Yeah, same. I don’t like humidity. I miss Cali. Its weird, but I miss the southwest :P. Not so much LA, but traveling around and the dry weather. Although, the summers were brutal being up in the 100’s haha. So, last week one of the people I transported had the Coronavirus. I was really hoping to get a paid two weeks off from work, but they cleared me to keep working smh xD haha. I’m kind of disappointed, but it is better than being fired, because when they called me back to the garage to let me know I thought were firing me for something xD haha. That’s good your mom gets to go back to work. I was going crazy without income before getting this job :P.

My weekend has been much the same. Although, I am glad warmer weather seems to have finally made its way here haha. It is crazy to think last weekend it snowed here and today it is in the 80ties. That’s good I’m glad you got to see your friend ^~^. I found out my buddy G and his wife are expecting a baby ^~^. I guess she got pregnant right before the quarantine xD haha. I am hoping to start the 4, 10 hour shifts a week. I’ll have to work until about 5:30. Which means I won’t be home until about 6:30 thanks to the commute, but having am extra day off would be worth it. I read an article today advocating that once the vaccine is made it should be mandatory for every one, but especially all school age children. I have to admit I am very confused by that xD haha. If all the people who are high risk get the vaccine then people who aren’t shouldn’t need it right? If I remember right kids in school age are like almost completely fine even if they get it. You’d think they’d be advocating every one 65+ has to get it, because they are most at risk to die from it. Idk I don’t understand why school children rather than the elderly, but it was an interesting read. I like being alone, but this is starting to become too much :P. Pa was suppose to start reopening the 8th, but I can’t tell any difference from before or after. It still seems like everything is closed. What about there? Is CT opening soon?

My weekend went well. I saw my mom and otherwise it was uneventful :P. By the time you read this you will have already taken that exam and passed so Congratulations Nicole ^~^. My week has been pretty boring. Then today happened and I’m ready to go home haha. So I wake up at 4:30 everything is going great. I make my lunch etc. about 20minutes before I have to leave I gather up my stuff and realize I can’t find my work phone. My work phone is super important. I clock in, get my jobs, and directions all on my work phone. I literally cannot work with out it. I spend 40 minutes searching for the stupid thing and give up. Hop in my car stressed, because ai didn’t find my phone and will be lucky to get to work at 6:30. I get to work hit the brakes and my bag falls over. Poof, my work phone falls out of the back zipped area... I checked my lap top bag about 4 times Smh. First pick up goes smoothly, my second pick up I’m delayed about 20 minutes so when I get to the center I’m kind of stressed, but trying to take my time. I open the door and a supervisor says hi. I get distracted and start pushing in the wheel chair, but do it the “improper” way 🤦‍♂️
He corrects me, and I probably got written up. I’m ready to go to bed haha.
The most frustrating part is normally I put my work phone in the same spot, but for some reason I must have put it in the back pocket not paying attention :P. Any plans for the weekend haha?

No worries haha. I hope you enjoyed your weekend and had a good mother’s day ^~^. I think it is weird how when I get tired I get depressed and angry and then when I wake up I feel a million times better :P.

Yeah, I am looking for my own place just to get away from my sister haha, and because I can’t stand the hour or longe commute. It might not be so bad but there are so many red lights on certain stretches of the road and to take any other way adds about 20-3 minutes smh. Good, I am glad you are enjoying you last few projects ^~^. They’ll help keep you busy. The state is suppose to start opening around the 8th. I’m so excited to get paid on Friday. I downloaded this coin app. Basically, you share your location to “mine” the tile in the app. You get a certain amount of coins and then you can trade it in. I figured all I do is drive around all day. I can let it collect automatically and get so free stuff. What they don’t tell you is that you have to pay to get any decent “coins” and to get any rewards you have to get 300k-500k but without the subscription you only get fractions of coins like .6 smh. It was a nice idea but I’m not paying for it haha. Even with the subscription you’d only make about 2000 coins a day smh. I hope we never close down again. I think we should be in charge of our health. The Gov can advise, but it should be up to us whether we follow or not. It isn’t as though I’m going to force my way into someone’s house who wants to isolate themselves during a pandemic smh.

Especially, if you have a bunch of big final projects due lol. Haha, I understand completely. I am so sick of my family. I don’t know what I’ll do next. I don’t really want to rent another place, because right now I am only paying bills. So, I’m saving between $600-$1,000 dollars on rent. My mom is living with her husband and I just take care of the house, but I’m sick of living with my younger sister. I really have a hard time putting up with her. She helps herself to my food without asking and finished off my cookies the other day, and then she plays stupid as though she can fool anyone smh. I just can’t stand her. I like this job and even once ot gets busy again I’ll still like it, but I am already thinking about moving, because I don’t want to live within 2 hours of my family :P. I’m glad you are keeping busy. I’m sure you’ll Ace those essays Miss. Smarty Pants ^~^. You can do it since you are awesome ^~^!

Of course it looks good on you I do ‘t know what wouldn’t :P. Yeah, I know what you mean. School always seems to be worse than just about anything the closer you get to finishing a semester haha. That’s good. At least you are getting some quality family time ^~^. I go to work and get paid to watch movies and play video games haha. Today I watched pirates of the Caribbean. Yesterday I had about an hours worth of things to do, and I stopped at my dad’s afterwards to say hi. I really enjoy getting paid to do the same things I was doing while quarantined haha. My car hit 200,000 this morning. I find it amazing that it still runs so well. I was looking at used motorcycles today. I’m really looking forward to getting one :P. However, I think I should save up money and use it to invest in stocks, but who knows. I am still working 5, 8 hour days. I am looking forward to the 4 ten’s but I think it will be a while before I get moved to that. Which is fine, because they might start making Saturdays mandatory for a short time, because they want to stop paying overtime. I don’t understand that, because it isn’t like they have lost any money during this. All of their participants are on medicare and medicaid so the money cones no matter what. Fortunately, it will most likely be the 4, 10 shifts that have to rotate saturdays, but who knows :P. Anyways, you’re awesome Nicole ^~^. I hope you are having a wonderful week :).

I got a lonovo gaming laptop. Guess they are starting to make laptops with out cd rom drivers. I’m sure it looks hot on you ;P. I know its a nice unexpected perk ^~^. Haha, that’s funny. I haven’t played catch in a long time. I’m sure school will go by faster than you think :). My brother is Moving out so I’m going to set up my weight bench over the weekend. I’ll have to clean up the room, and probably set up my laptop down there as well. I could just leave it in my room, but it is nice moving around and at least tricking my brain into thinking I’m doing something

You’re welcome *hugs* Yeah, I think some of the NE states are planning on staying closed until June 0.0 My laptop is suppose to be delivered today and my younger brother is moving out. I’ll turn the basement back into my workout area. Cool, what color? Blue? That would be pretty xD haha. I don’y worry about dyeing my hair :P Although, I could dye my beard. I’m starting to get grays. I got paid today, and I get free mcdonalds since I am considered essential medical personnel xD haha. I finally start driving on my own next week. It’ll be nice. I’ll be watching a lot of tv on my phone since there is so little to do at work. Do you play catch with your sister?

Wow, I am glad I work. I would go crazy if PA stayed closed that long and I was stuck at home. Bummer, I wish you did. You’re great ^~^. I think anyone who pays taxes should get one. You need a car. I love the freedom of driving. I think my mom is more annoyed with the whole set up than I am haha. I don’t have much going on. I’m doing my drive alongs this week. I can see myself getting fat if I’m not careful. I’d eat just out if boredom waiting for my next run. I really like the job benefits. Apparently every 3 weeks I will get a 4 day week end. I’ll do mini trips to help offset my wanderlust. I am looking forward to the DMV opening up so I can get my motorcycle license. It’ll save me a lot of money in gas for my commute. I don’t even know what to say when talking to people, because there is literally nothing new going on xD lol.

I know right haha, they send all the daily tasks to the cell phone. Its pretty useless for anything else though. I almost wish I had Monday off so I could go to the protest in Harrisburg about opening up Pa May 1st. I don’t know what good the stimulus money will do without any businesses to stimulate :P. Any plans to meet up will have to wait until after the quarantine ends. That’s something else about this job. I’m glad I’ll have three day weekends to go places. I agree. There are lots of attractive girls, but if you don’t click over more than just physical attraction the relationship won’t last very long. I read an article from abc saying that NYC has added 10,000 deaths to their Coronavirus count based off assumption rather than knowing that the Coronavirus was actually the cause. That actually scares me, because they can make it look way worse if you just say well it was probably the Coronavirus so lets just inflate our numbers making it look worse. Smh, I really think all big corporate news media needs to be closed. Fox, CNN, ABC, MSNBC. I don’t trust any of them. Historically the more power a person has the more corrupt they become seeking more power. I don’t know though. A lot of people seem content to let the government do what it thinks is for the best despite losing freedoms. *shrugs* My life is basically back to normal now that I’m working again, because I never went anywhere anyways haha. Would you go protest in Hartford if they set up a rally? Oh and here is the link I was talking about. https://abcnews.go.com/Health/coronavirus-updates-us-navy-battles-growing-outbreak-hospital/story?id=70134122&fbclid=IwAR1HHQgc0M0y_JjCbEznPmFGLmy_3EA6bKHqswtIiacvTm-CfUG_Sw6gCsg
