I have had a very unproductive weekend and I am extremely embarrassed about it to say the least.  It is very difficult to motivate myself and my inability to have any success what so ever has weighed down my enthusiasm for just about everything.  I have an appointment Tuesday for the Low Income Health Insurance Plan or Assistance or whatever it is called exactly.  I hope that it goes well because I really need to see a doctor about a few things.  My period of "great ideas" or "great thinking" while not completely over seems to have ground to a slow crawl if anything.  I had hoped my facebook posts would be available to help me remember ideas I had but they seem to be all gone.  I have not had the stomach to check on it the past few days.  I hope I was wrong and it is still there.
I hesitate to say anything to anyone because I just seem to upset them.  I wish I was more acceptable to people the way I am but after four decades of not fitting in I doubt it is going to change anytime soon.  This blog however is supposed to reflect my ideas regarding saving the planet and any solutions I or anyone reading it may come up with to hash out and perhaps bring to others that may have the knowledge, influence or cash to implement them.
I have to admit I am WAY more conscious about my own use of resources and I have stepped up my recycling efforts and clean up efforts of the complex where I am staying.  I picked up a large bag of trash today in the back parking lot.  I also have been checking the trash for cans and bottles I can recycle and moving articles thrown in the trash that can be recycled to the proper bin and things like clothes that I find I bring to the clothing donation box down the street.

This is the first post of my new blog.  It appears, for some unknown reason, Facebook decided to erase all my posts and my "ban Facebook" group.  I guess they did not appreciate the humor in it.  Mark Zuckerberg never did strike me as someone it would be fun to "share ideas" with.  Since he tends to steal them and claim them as his own, according to the movie at least.
I was happy to see the story about retired Cardinal Mahoney of Los Angeles being  wrist slapped by the Arch Bishop of the area.  It gave me an opportunity to post comments both at the +Los Angeles Times   website and  +Gary Robbins San Diego Union Tribune.  I also attempted to post comments/contact +Bill Maher and +The Rachel Maddow Show about the question of how the catholic church can still enjoy tax free status in any city, state or the country of the United States of America.
I have been trying to work on book ideas and apply for nursing jobs outside of San Diego.  Palm Springs and San Francisco are the most likely candidates right now.  Wish me luck anyone.  I was able to register at a second food bank so that as my ever dwindling funds run out I at least can get some groceries to share once a month at two places now.
