well how bout that?! its been over a year since i posted on here last! maybe i just feel like there isnt any point to telling anybody about my life? i feel like its really boring? seems like all i do is go to work. come home, change, go work out, come home shower, eat, sleep repeat....at least during the week days. my weekends lately have consisted of me sittin on my ass playin video games wishing for warmer weather. work is slow....again.... it always happens this time of year though.
there ARE some oppertunities comming up in my life that i am thinking seriously hard to think about. ECI the company i work for is trying to get a contract with a coal mine in canada...of course me bein the yes man volenteered for the first three month stint...i dont know why. i think i get it from mom (the cant say no) thing. i am just hopin the goddards are willing to work with that, if they arent then i guess i dont go. there is one more thing in my life i have been contemplating for a while and now that i have talked to april about it i feel i can go ahead and tell every one else maybe get an opinion? been thinking VERY hard about joining the armed services. most likely just the reserves. you may not know but i am very patriotic and i feel like i would feel better about my self if i at least tryed to join(even if i get rejected) i mean its the least i can do for this beautiful country we live in where we have rights and freedoms.

Family
Hello everybody! longtime no talk!
Ive been pretty damn busy lately with working in colorado on a multi billion dollar project, i might have some pics up here on this one.... maybe...... depending on if mom saved them on her desktop or her lap top..... hmmmm..... anyway, first of all i would like to say congrats sara and jeromy! i am so freakin happy for you guys! You deserve this baby! i have never seen ANYBODY want anything so bad in my life, and the miricles that had to happen to have her here, its just wow. And that means alot that i said miricles cause i dont even really belive in miricles weird eh? but constance is nothing short of one, and once again congrats and if you guys need anything let me know. Second of all thank everyone that has been supporting me in this whole Trial situation that i have been going through with my son. I know i have made alot of mistakes in this area of my life, and i know how much i have hurt people,...aka....mom and dad.... but the good thing about being human is you can recignize mistakes and try to correct them right? I have been in and out of court for almost a year now, and it has been very very very very stressfull, to be totally honest i bawl on a daily basis over everything that is happening right now, and this IS the hardest time i have had in my life to date..... I especially have to thank my mother and father for all of their support! there is no way in hell i could do this without them! they have been my shoulder to cry on, they have been my crutch when i felt like falling to the ground and giving up. so MOM, DAD, thank you both very very much, i would also like to thank sara for her moral support on this whole situation. Speaking of this whole subject, it has came to my knowelge that someone is not very happy with my mother, and to be honest with you cough cough CADE, from what i have herd about this phone call with my mother, you feel like she has spent way more energy on my son than she has on her other grandchildren, truth is she has. i really dont know if your justified in being mad about it though. When was the last time you made an effort to showup, and be a part of your inlaws? How many times do they call you and my sister and invite you guys to do things? how many oppertunitys do you have to bring your son around my family and enjoy the love that we have to offer? Okay thats what i thought. if you cant tell i am NOT very fucking happy with you right now. and belive me if you didnt feel awkward being around me before i said anything. just wait untill now. Now i belive you owe my mother and apologie. And melisa dont get me wrong i love you TO DEATH and i alwase will sister, but i think you should look back on how your husband has had an affect on how you treat your family and your prioritys in life. We would love to have you and lock and even kade over to visit once in a blue moon. but i do love you and i hope you dont have hatred towards my comments to your husband. but the truth hurts. okay. im done being a "hater" for the day. cant wait to see you all during the holidays, i HOPE you all make an effort to be at moms for christmas, i know it would mean the world to her to see all her kids home for christmas.

hey everybody,
well its 11:30 at night, and i cant sleep, just got a phone call saying that we are getting evicted from our apartment, i asked why, and our land lords said just beacause, i mean our house is clean, we pay our rent, so i dont really know what the hell is going on there but i guess i am going to be homeless in a couple of weeks. I hear that sara and jeromy cant go to the cabin, thats a bummer, then i herd melisa wasnt comming up, another bummer, i was really looking forward to seein the whole family, but i guess stuff comes up in everyones busy lives. I am a little pissed off right now tho, im not going to lie, i hate being woke up by my phone in the middle of the night, especially to bad news, but i can never go back to sleep after some one wakes me up in the middle of the night. I dont know why but i have been having troubles sleepin lately, and i have NEVER had a problem with that. i guess the stress gets a little much sometimes. I dont really feel stressed but i guess it takes a toll on my body. well i think im going to go lay in bed and stare at the celing untill i fall asleep, cause i gotta be up at 4:30 to go to work, and i cant stand sittin here knowing i have to be up in five hours. later

A much needed vacation!
Hey there everybody, its been a while since ive wrote a new blog but Sara just told me i should do another one, i think she is pretty supprised that i even do blogs!
Well today starts my Vacation, much MUCH needed vacation! Where am i going for my vacation u ask? Reno Nevada, to BLOW SHIT UP.
Let me inform u about my part time job. I work for lantis pyro out of Salt lake. I do large sized fireworks shows for fourth of july, new years, and any other occasion that needs some fire works. i have worked there for about a year now and i LOVE it! It is the biggest adrenelane rush u could get. It is ALOT of work but it is worth it. We shoot shells up to eight inches, and that is Huge!
I went to Reno for new years and shot the fireworks show for the silver legacy, me and my best freind Red were on the highest rooftop in northern nevada, the second highest in ALL of nevada, it was a blast.... litterally. The show we did was over twenty minets of bliss, The whole building was Shaking and booming. The main pyro technictian was on the lower level rooftop of the legacy, U know the one with the big ass dome! He was doing a show on that level so his fireworks were blowing right in my face it was a feeling that not alot of people have or will ever experence.
So this year we are doing the fourth of july show for The Nugget, we will be doing a show on three different locations, two rooftops and a train yard. Im not Sure where i will be while we are shooting this year, but i am super super excited just thinking about how fun it will be. Yes it will be alot of work, but it is still a vacation to me.
This vacation is really important to me. I need to leave this place called castle country. I see the same people everyday, do the same things everyday, and see the same shit....everyday. So when i get a chance to leave here, see new stuff, meet new people, and do new things i will jump on the chance. If u lived down here, u would understand where i am comming with this.
Well ladies and gentlemen, it is time for me to prepare to go. I must pack, pay bills now that will be due while im gone, go to the mecca for merchendise....wal-mart, and last but not least. JUST GET THE HELL OUTTA HERE! untill next time...... adios amigos

This vacation is really important to me. I need to leave this place called castle country. I see the same people everyday, do the same things everyday, and see the same shit....everyday. So when i get a chance to leave here, see new stuff, meet new people, and do new things i will jump on the chance. If u lived down here, u would understand where i am comming with this.
Well ladies and gentlemen, it is time for me to prepare to go. I must pack, pay bills now that will be due while im gone, go to the mecca for merchendise....wal-mart, and last but not least. JUST GET THE HELL OUTTA HERE! untill next time...... adios amigos

longest week ever!
So anyway, i am here to tell u about my long ass week i had. It has been a long week for a number of reasons, number one, work, number two drama, and number three is definately my lack of sleep.
First let me tell u about my job, i am an electricians apprentice that works for a company called ECI, or Electrical contractors incorperated. Let me tell u about Eci. We mainly do electrical work, hence my job title is "Electricans apprentice", but eci also does other contractor work such as , seamless raingutter, steel buildings, framing, chainlink fence, and pipe insulation.
Lately i have been working on a steel building, the biggest one we have ever done. Its really not bad doing this building, i mean its a good job and all, but i am required to be at work at five thirty every single morning. This wouldnt be such a bad thing except i have a hard time going to bed early, i have never went to bed early and never had to get up that early my whole life. I have been doing this for about two months now and i thought i was getting used to it. I can definately feel it wearing on me now.
The location of this building is in the BOTTOM of nine mile canyon in utah, it takes at least an hour and half to get there after i leave the shop, and this is why i have to wake up early. Just waking up early isnt the thing that is kicking my ass, it is alot of other factors such as, the heat, strenuous labor, and stress. We are building above five running gas compressors for bill barrett corp. and working above those compressors the temporature is alwase at LEAST 160 degrees. You will drink at least a gallon of water, and not take a piss all day long. The strenuous labor isnt too bad by itself eather. I mean it still doesnt hold a candle to doing concrete. When u add this factor in with the heat it definately makes a difference tho.
The stress is unreal, I have five other guys working with me every day, and their life is litterally in my hands, as well as my life is in theirs, this is where trust comes into play. You have an obligatoin not to do anything stupid so these other guys can go home and see their familys.
The next factor that makes this week so damn long is the drama. If u dont know, i have an ex-wife, along with a beautiful son jake. My ex has been seeing this kid with a history of domestic violence, and this wed. he decided he was going to smack my ex wife around. wich is all fine with me, except my son. its pretty irritating that he would have the nerve to do that, and make death threats to her and my son and stuff. He is pretty lucky i dont know what he looks like where he lives or even his name, but thats beyond the point here. When my ex is in trouble, she knows that i am the person to call, to make it all better, or just to listen. Well she called me and of course i went over. Now add this to the stress of me working at this job i told u about k?
The last thing that makes this week so long is the fact i cant fall asleep before midnight anymore. The fact that i have to wake up early.... well it kicks my ass.
Right now i am feelings pretty draind from all this weeks happenings, put in over 70hrs and still manage to come home to a totally empty house and be alone. anyway, i am gettin pretty damn tired so i am going to go to bed... alone.....and wake up .....alone..... so i can get ready to start another exciting week, in the life of Trenton wilson.
