A walk on the wil.... errrrr wheelchair ride!





I am recording my travels in my hometown in hopes of showing how the sidewalks are not wheelchair friendly. I have three or four more trips to document. This video includes a short inside look at the FBC Sanctuary Remodel.

Damn the Mind

Damn the Mind 8-27-2017 Damn the mind and it wanting to take you into the dark recesses of its inner core. You know the place, where it screams out that no one loves you, what you think is not important. If it was important, the person you just sent that text to would answer and not wait until it is late evening, they would not tell you that the link of a video you made was not important enough to look at because they were not in the mood. In other words my mind is telling me that they do not think that I am important enough for their attention??!?!?!?!? When they finally ask if you are okay, your answer is, “I’m fine,” because you do not want to unload the inner turmoil rolling around in your mind!

In which he responded that I would need to have quit smoking and be on Dialysis for 2 years and that because of the location of the growth being on the backside of my kidney amongst all the veins and arteries, there is a chance that I could bleed out during surgery... Deep thoughts... A day or so later, with this in my mind, I we

Ask for help. You're worth it! Free lifeline  1.800.273.8255 OR text CONNECT to 741741 RecklesslyAlive.com Your brain is lying to you.  YOUR LIFE MATTERS!!! Choose to LIVE! Tuesday 8-22-2017 So last week, I asked the question, “What do you do when your mind goes to the dark places?” Valid question to which, I got many great answers but not one person took the time to say, “Hey Skip, where does your mind go in those times?” You see many times, we hide those times by putting up a façade of everything is a okay, I am a pillar of strength!!! But would anyone have thought that Robin Williams, the funny man, who made people laugh daily with his jokes, would have done what he did? NO, he was successful, loved by many, had a great family as well as respected by many. One of the greatest comedians of all time Jerry Lewis said of Williams. That he (Robin) was the Jerry Lewis of our day! But sadly, Robin dealt with his own demons…. We all deal with our demons, som
