a day in a life

layla our new puppy
hello my cyber-world friends and family......well it still seems like this little part of my world has had an effect on some of you and you still enjoy reading me from time to time...well it was what kept me going in those darkest and brightest of times.....in some ways i am exactly the same person i was before the big c-entered and then was ripped from my body.....but in other ways i have changed a little........I cannot put my finger on it exactly yet and will spend the next few blogs and months trying to figure out exactly how I have changed...so if you have any ideas or observations on why i am different i am up for the listening......here is a list of things i still do like i always do.....1. still feel i give people respect (even if they do not deserve it) because after all they are clueless to that fact....2. still like a good laugh now and then...3. music and my mets are still apart of my life...4. when i look up at the sky at night i am still as amazed as when i was a little man....5. my close friends are closer than ever...5. i still pull the ball in softball....... 6.oh yeah I still play softball....well i will think of more as the summer goes on........here are some of the ways i have changed...1..food is more of a burden than a joy......2. well having a neo-bladder is ..different...3....after 2 beers i am full...4.seems like i am tired more than before....5.....let's be honest the people i say i give respect to and don't deserve it ..... well they are getting on my nerves more and more.......6. when i laugh....well it is hard to describe..it is not totally back yet where i can say where it was before....and that i am working on......expect more from me in the next few weeks

Hi Tom!
Good Blog, but I have to say,
a few ways I have changed since I met you over 10 years ago:

1. The Cheffo Family set an example of strength and love, and family bonds, and positive attitudes that makes me appreciate and love my family more every day.

2. I realized by your example, whatever is wrong in your own little world, you don't take it out on a waitress, or a bellman, or any person you pass on the street. All people and animals deserve a smile and kind word.

3. That peace, love, and music CAN change the world.

4. There is more to life than shoes.
