October 9th of 1967 - November 13th of 2005

It is a typical Sunday here but I will get to that in just a moment. For now though, I need to take a deep breath while I reflect on the One and the Only: Latino Heat - Eddie Guerrero 🌹

Today would have been (uncle) Eddie's 55th birthday if I am not mistaken. Eddie was taken from us at the YOUNG age of just 38 - a baby and though he is not here with us, physically right now - he is still here in our hearts. In all of us who loved him - cheering him on each night.

I was never lucky enough to meet Eddie before he gained his wings, I did however get to pal around with: I want to say Chavo could have been Hector - I swear those boys all look a like but there is ONE thing that is extremely different about Eddie. It was the way that he could perform inside the ring. Yes, he was a great wrestler in his own sense but he was even a better actor. He wasn't one of those that you loved to hate. He was one of those that you loved to loved. With all his lying, cheating and stealing he was a show stopper.

There is no one like Eddie. There will never be anyone like Eddie. 
Today the Wrestling World Fans will all at some point stop in their minds - Wishing him a Happy Birthday. Wish he was still here with us - calling out to the Heavens - Latino Heat while shaking their shoulders, smiling and imagining just the shenanigans he is putting all the Angel through (right now).


 

                                                               Eddie Guerrero: YOU are the CELEBRATION!



In different news: It is Sunday and I am sure that everyone who lives in the United States will agree to that statement unless you partied a little to much last night - having no idea what today is and don't really care but that is none of my business.

My house is running like this ...

Shailah is off at a gender reveal for Jamal - though I keep offering to help her move to a different State from here - the one farthest away, she isn't going and sends her love.

Lucee' is in the bedroom watching tv while Sebastian is in the living room doing the same.

Shurree' & Saphiere are on a long journey to Tacoma to visit Shurree's - X who isn't doing well, at the hospital - it was his birthday yesterday.

Sharrah & Andre are more then likely sleeping. Don't ask about that one.

Saisha & D-Man are in Montana probably just laying around being lazy but I can't say for sure.

Mighty One is picking up after Corey and thinking to himself that he just come home cuz his Mom misses him way to much.

Rusty more then not is sitting down with the "boob tube" blasting some type of old black and white movie that he thinks he likes but in reality, he doesn't and neither does anyone else.

Oakley is with Gigi and Poppa today - picking pumpkins out of his Aunt's yard that she grew for him.

Me? I am here writing this blog - wishing all my kids were home but obviously they aren't and that is the reason I am able to sit here. I have lit a Banana Nut Candle, making me start my next journey of the day ... I shall bake some copycat Panera Blueberry Muffins while I attempt to finish drinking this Super Coffee Mocha Latte which I pray doesn't kill me from tasting like to much bad sugar but I suppose that if it does, I will leave you with this ...

Can I just blame it on that?

                                        Day 153. Is that even believable?       I can answer that in just two letters. No.  Even more unbelievable is that there are only 213 more days left until we start to "ring" in a new year. I mean like, what? How even?      How even? There is a question that I am unable to answer.  Beings that 1/2 of the 2024 year is already over: have I done anything I took the time to write on paper during the end of the 2023 glitter fest happening around me? I can answer that in two letters too. No.      Maybe it has something to do with the fact that all the seasons seem off this year? Can I blame it on that? Seriously, here it is June and the sky is looking like a dream today. The air is chilly, it is gloomy out. Trees are bending much like a lazy weekend would have them doing. A faint smell of burning ...

Sending a Letter to Heaven

                                          Hello Grandma, are you there?      Not to long ago, I came across an article that convinced me to "write a letter" to the person who "took my heart away" when they gained their wings.      As I read it - it told me that the grieving process is much harder for some then it is for others. I believe my "story" goes into the column of (the MOST hard) as it has been. Over twenty years have escaped now since you have left me. My life never being the same from that day on.       I have so many things to ask you and so much to tell you. I truly believe in Angels though and that makes me believe that you know what has been happening in my life.      It is a Saturday afternoon. The rain is gently falling outside. Another beautiful Spring day here in Washington. I have been spending a lot ...

Any cake BUT chocolate.

  My Grandmother's birthday has got to be one of the hardest days to get through since I lost her in 2001. I wrote this awhile back but with September 11th being tomorrow, I thought this might be the right time to share it. I had planned on taking Shurree' out to see Skye today. She has been asking me for a long time, to get pictures of her three kids together. I try so hard to avoid it. Nothing to do with the child. Just not something I am able to handle. Still. It was Mom's day though so I thought I would brave it out. At least attempt too. I wanted to go by my old residence as well. Bike Capital of The Northwest. Wendy's. My first job. The Redmond House. The one I will always call home. Drive up the Old Windy past Adrian's. Maybe stop by my schools? The High School. Home of The Mustangs. My lip had already started to quiver as I knew the memories would overtake me. I was sure I was going to lose it the second I came past Moen's on 171st but ... it didn't ...
