Self confidence is priceless! Here lately, I feel as if I can handle anything. Used to be that pressure drove me crazy, now I kind of welcome it.
I mean, I’ve got this government test coming up, my brother wants lyrics and details on the cakes, there’s the blogs, the novels, exercise, Bible study…and it’s all flowing in harmony. Or maybe I’m just at peace?
Anyhow, wanted to make sure we’re eye to eye on everything, touching all bases.
The SOC thing sounds like a big deal. Hopefully they are receptive. I want this thing to do well for all of us. The email you sent them was well done and worded. You’re a pro!
And yes, you are sticking up for my mom, but it’s okay. That’s what mother’s do. She’ll be alright. Eventually she’ll come around. I don’t know why she can express excitement to you about me and show me nothing. When I mentioned that I have a 4.0 GPA, she didn’t flinch.
I’m going to wait a few days to see if you want me to send the paper to your house or to the store before I get on it.
Umm, if I forgot anything….oh, oh yeah! Okay, I know you are swamped, but I need you to look up a few things for me. First and most importantly, I need to know what the law (Federal and State) are on making money as an inmate. If there is some red tape, let’s try to avoid it. Don’t worry, I trust you, and I definitely don’t trust them, so let’s take all precaution.
Of less importance, I need to know how many calories a 30 year old male 6 feet four inches burns when jobbing in place for an hour? If WebMD or someplace has a chart, I would sure appreciate it. I’m trying to factor how many calories I need to eat daily to maintain a healthy weight and balance. By knowing exactly how much I burn, I can factor it as close as possible. Thanks.
I’m sending you a few blogs to keep you beyond busy. Don’t you love me?
This letter is jammed full of good wishes, warm weather, smiles, hugs, creativity, aspirations and love!
P.S. The dictionary and thesaurus have made such a difference! Thank you so much!

Tried to go to sleep without writing, was going to put it off until tomorrow, but here I am. Couldn’t sleep. Too much surging through my mind, figured, why not get some of it on paper, then seek rest?
Been a long chilly day. I woke up tired, dragged through Mass, lunch, studied several hours, skipped the workout, proof read more of the novel, did my daily Bible readings, prayed, but still felt incomplete and I express my gratitude and excitement over the book!!
I got your letter and was thrilled! If I don’t seem myself, it is because I’m not. I feel really crappy, like nauseous. Maybe something I ate. And I hate being sick, feels so helpless.
I felt so bad I didn’t even feel like wrestling to get to commissary. A few people paid me, I’ll just try tomorrow when I’m up to par.
Really, I can’t wait to see the book. In my eyes that’s quite an accomplishment and every time I look at it, I’ll know that I have the support and knowledge and talent to accomplish the unthinkable, the unimaginable. Thanks to you…just watch what we become!
Good to know that the books don’t cost you! (a credit was used to buy the books) I do worry about money spent on me. I can’t help it.
All of this is happening so fast, it’s mind blowing, really. Seems like I’m constantly being wowed, playing catch up, but in a good way.
Don’t blame yourself about the paper. Really, those stores know better. You’d think that they would inform the consumer that the facility might not accept certain supplies. I am somewhat disturbed that the shipping was $10.95 coming but $21.20 going back. Not that these are trustworthy people. Regardless, I’m going to pay to sent it back to you. No biggie. I’m just thankful for all you do. Right now, my blessing are spilling over the rim.
Don’t mind my “loose leaf antics.” I’ll make it work and work well. I love college ruled paper! I’ll just build a little board to hold the paper in place. Ingenuity.
Hey you do so much already, my small requests are exactly that—small requests. When and if you find the time, then great. I’m always grateful and thank you for the pictures. Yes, it is good that we’ve been busy with business. There will always be time to chat.
You’ll be happy to know that I’ve committed myself to complete and copy this novel. I feel really good about it. Every day, every page, I’m more impressed. Only hope I can finish it as strong as it began.
College is cutting severely into my time, but soon that too will be over for a few weeks and I can dedicate larger blocks of time to writing.
Well, better tuck it in. Tomorrow is another long day.
