I Need Some Good JuJu Here Guys...
Well, Shit...
It's been a rough few months for the Gonzo clan and I could use some good Mojo... I found out a few days ago that my mother has a baseball sized growth on her right kidney. The Doc said he's seen this before and it's likely not Cancer, (I don't know what the hell it would be, a cyst perhaps). Apparently, the treatment for this involves injecting a small radioactive rod into the growth and killing the infected tissue. Unfortunately, this will likely kill the kidney as well. This usually wouldn't worry me much because my mother was always a very strong woman. However, since her retirement about 8 years ago her health has steadily gone down hill. My mom's a great person, she worked as a CNA for over 30 years while moving every 1-3 years for my dad so he could further is millitary career. Lifting Senior Citizens in and out of bathtubs and off of toilets for that long has taken it's toll on her. They both retired at a fairly young age and have been able to enjoy it until recently. At this point you pray for small victories. All of this crap coupled with my job worries, worries for my son and all the other bullshit I deal with daily wears a guy out. One thing I'll say is that Lumpy has been awesome with all of this. She's been a great help and very supportive. She absolutely loves my parents and is always there for them. Another bright spot is that I'm being considered for a promotion. Funny how things like this go, I'm either worried about getting canned or I'm excited for a new opportunity. WTF? I was going to take an extended break from this place but I am in need of the stress relief that CP provides so I'll be in and out. (gimme my $$$ back Sofaking) I try not to share too many personal issues on here but with all of the support you guys have given me, it's only fair I keep you updated. |
I almost started the prayer thread but I figured that enough people would know who it was for. I believe in the power of prayers, and good thoughts so I'm glad you did this.
You've got mine, but you already know that. I am glad to hear that the work thing has already turned around. |
I am mustering up all the positive mojo I can and telepathically projecting it your your way.
Can you point me in the right direction for MVP city? |

Thoughts and prayers from the House-O-Dobbs, Gonzo, Lumpy & kid! (and mom!)

Good luck to your mom and on your possible promotion.

Check your PM's. Thx. |
My prayers to the Gonzo family. With your mom, the fact that its not cancer is a good sign. I hope she pulls through it and is stronger because of it. The job situation I think a lot of people are going through that so you can take solace in the "misery loves company" aspect. Its shitty right now but I am sure you will pull through it and hopefully get the raise. Good luck to you bro.

Gonzo, I wish you and yours all the best.
Gifts have been offered to Asclepius. |

Between all these challenges and being named MVP, it seems like kind of a wash for you so far this year. Good luck, though.
|
I will reach back into my JuJu reserves and send your way Gonzo. Hope everything works out OK for you and your family.
|
As alway's positive thoughts are being sent your way. You are good peeps in my book and I'm a firm believer in Karma. Best of luck my camo wearing brother.
You can some of my MOJO, but wife has a firm grip on my JUJU's. Sorry. |
Gonzo,
I know I get where it seems like things are piling up, and it rarely fails that when I think I'm getting close to my breaking point....something good happens. Lose a contract and wonder what I'm going to do...family health issues...yada yada yada....and then you'll catch a break...an unexpected contract that is better than what you lost, a promotion....and sometimes, even with the bad things like sickness, it gives you time to focus on what is important and let those people know you appreciate them. hang in there, be a rock for your family....and come to CP and make up insults to call strangers to vent your frustrations. It works. |
You got my prayers Gonzo. You deserve good things happening to you.
Good luck and keep us updated. |
Prayers headed your way Gonzo.
|
Prayers are easy and very effective.
Watch. See? Best wishes for you and your family. All is going to turn out well. |
Thanks Guys...
This is why I just can't stay away from this place for very long. I personally think that when spring gets here, everything will start falling into place. I used to think that "Seasonal Effective Disorder" or whatever it's called was bullshit. Now? Not so much. |

Gonzo...best of luck to you, man. I know this is cliche' but things do happen for a reason and things always turn around. It helps to have friends and family support you when things are at your worst and I hope the Planet can help you. I, for one, will pray for you.

Thanks all. I'm in a pretty good mood today. Lumpy bought me the best valentines day gift evah!
She got me a brand new PSE Stinger bow, a dozen Easton carbon arrows, a new release, field tips, an arrow rest and a new Block target. She shoots bows so she knew what the hell she was doing. I just got done putting it together and it shoots twice as fast as my old bow. Today is a good day. Posted via deadly Device |
Grrr, missed this one. Hang in there bud! Things Will get better.

Thanks for all the nice words gang...
I need a little more good Mojo. Today is a big day. My mom goes in for her MRI to find out WTF the deal is. Also, I interview today for the promotion, I have been on needles for two days. Reason being, The department I currently work in is folding in two weeks, (I was notified of this yesterday). Therefore, I either get a promotion or I'm out of a job. Please send me the good Juju. Thanks |

It was a Security banking position in Lincoln. Not my cup of tea. And to top all this shit off, they just called me to reschedule. Noon tomorrow. Phone interview. Shit. |
Dude....I ****ing hate phone interviews. It's hard to act like it's an interview when you're staring at a blank wall and you have a 3 year old knocking on the office door.

Well... No use sitting here not doing anything. I'm going home. **** It! I'm out. May as well use some of that vacation time they owe me. |

Good luck on your phone interview. |
