Oil Change and Road Trips

20140714-000553-353670.jpg

Today, I have to go get an oil change for my car. Over the next few weeks, I will be making several trips and I need my car in top shape, besides, it’s kind of past time to get my oil changed. This week, I will be heading to visit a friend in Louisiana. We always have fun together and I haven’t been in a while. She’s been having some emotional and health difficulties, and I really need to go visit. I will probably be down there from Wednesday until Sunday.

Then I will have a week at home, before I take my niece to Six Flags. As soon as I get back from Atlanta, I will be heading to Dallas for a few days. Then it will just be one more week until school starts back.

I’d hoped I’d be someplace different for this next school year, but it looks as if I will be back at the same place. I haven’t heard anything from any of the schools I applied to teach at next year.

Just for fun, here is another pic of the guy above working on a car.

I think I’d trust him to work on my car, especially if I could just sit and watch. My tires do need to be checked too.

I began my life in the South and for five years lived as a closeted teacher, but am now making a new life for myself as an oral historian in New England. I think my life will work out the way it was always meant to be. That doesn't mean there won't be ups and downs; that's all part of life. It means I just have to be patient. I feel like October 7, 2015 is my new birthday. It's a beginning filled with great hope. It's a second chance to live my life…not anyone else's. My profile picture is "David and Me," 2001 painting by artist Steve Walker. It happens to be one of my favorite modern gay art pieces. View all posts by Joe
