Outraged & Sickened to My Very Core

I AM OUTRAGED!! And I’m also sick to my very core at the news from Albuquerque NM. The mother of a 3 year old child found buried in the sand at a local playground last Friday admitted to killing her son. She said she suffocated him once, changed her mind and preformed CPR to bring him back to life, then suffocated him again. This makes me weep.

Murder is wrong in all instances, but how can someone kill an innocent child, especially their own child. This makes me so outraged! And really PISSED OFF I have no compassion for these people. The death penalty would be to good for this woman (she is no mother), she should be sentenced to a maximum security prison where she can sit and rot away for the next 50 to 60 years well thinking of the innocent life she so carelessly took.

Where were the adults who had some responsibility for this child? The woman was kicked out of her mothers home on May 7, 2009 because of the way she treated the child was kicked out of a friend’s home a couple of days later because of how she was treating her child. Why did these people not call NM Child Protective Services and have the child put in a safer environment???

You know we have no law regarding a persons general duty to help in the United States but we should have a laws regarding a persons duty to help in the cases of children who may be in danger. These adults kicked the woman out with little or no regard to what was going to happen to the child. They knew the child was in danger because they kicked out the woman because of the way she was treating the child, but yet they had little regard for the child as evidenced by their failure to take any action to protect the child in any way. They should also be held accountable for this child’s death and charged under the child negligence statutes of NM law. I just hope the Prosecutors have enough gravitas to do it.

Tuesday was Tuesday.

It was a little crazy Tuesday, I was so hungry by mid morning that I ate my lunch for my normal midmorning snack and then ate my snack for lunch later, hence the change in position on the list.

Around 3:00 pm my Misun (wife) called and said my 6 month old son who has been running a fever the last couple of days was getting worse and that she had called the doctor’s office. Then about 4:30 pm she called and said the doctor wanted her to bring Big “R” (our 6 mo. son) into the office so that they could look at him so she picked me up from work early and we went to the doctors office where we learned the Big R had a bad ear infection and the doctor prescribed some antibiotics for it.

We also learned something else well at the doctors office, that our 2 ½ year old son David MunYung knows how to pray. Well in the examining room waiting for the doctor we heard David saying, “Heavenly Father please help Joseph (aka Big R). I love Jesus Christ he is my brother” and when we turned around David was kneeling down with his arms folded and head bowed.

Well after the doctor's office, it was off to the pharmacy for the 1 ½ hour wait for the prescription to get filled. Does anybody know why this process takes so long? Is it just a standard so that they make you wait in hopes that you will wonder and buy more crap from the store that you do not need? I think the later. As I have had to wait more than an hour recently when trying to fill a prescription at midnight for my son David, and no one else was even in the store.

Well by the time we got out of the store and home I was staving and Misun was tired so as you can see we did not have a great dinner it was kind of quick hot dog fridge find dinner.

Well her it is:

Breakfast
6 oz. Low fat Yogurt
½ cup Low fat Granola

Lunch
2 cups Spaghetti & Meatballs
2 cups Dinner Salad ( Lettuce, Tomato, Cucumber)
2 oz Light Raspberry Vinaigrette Salad Dressing

I did not do any extra exercise Tuesday, but I did walk a littl more than normal when we took Big R to the doctor, and I did not watch any television. But he traffic on the way to work was light that day.

A Quick Introduction

This Blog is my side of things - a journal of my story, my thoughts, my actions. Speaking simply it is a fat man’s journey.

A friend called this morning, he mentioned he was needing to lose some weight and felt it would help him if he was accountable to someone. He asked if I was interested in doing some sort of reporting to each other, on a weekly basis, of what we are doing and how our attempts to lose weight are going. I told him it sounded good to me and we agreed to report to each other by email every week. Well, after a little more thought on the subject this blog was born and I’m going to report through this blog on my daily journey. Yes, it will have other things that’s of interest to me as well, but it will contain my daily journey to lose weight. Both its failures and successes.

Who knows, maybe this blog may also answer so many people’s questions I know they want to ask, but are either to polite or afraid to ask. I wonder if people will stop staring at me and go about their business. Just a thought.
