Do I Miss Cleveland?

In early 2010 I moved to South Florida. I basically packed up everything that could fit in a van and headed south.  Usually every time I would make a move I would go backwards. (When I moved to NYC, I went backwards…when I moved back to Cleveland, I went backwards.)

But I was determined when I moved to Florida NOT TO GO BACKWARDS!

I was sick of  having nothing.  I would not accept it anymore. I would not be dragged down anymore. I would surround myself with positive people who empower me to be my best.

We’ll here in Florida I did just that. I got rid of the thorns that were dragging my ass down. I had to do a lot of ignoring, take a lot of abuse and put up with loud mouths spewing negativity.

The first 6 months of living down here were hard but I worked my ass off…in a mobile home with my ex-mother-in-law. There was no space for me to set up my computer and work unless it was on a hot porch. (Believe me the porch was hot…so hot my computer would overheat. )

When I moved here I got a job within a week. I was promised all kinds of benefits and riches by the owner of the company when I started. He even offered to “buy” my old business. (That was a joke. Another Story for another day. Yes, there is animosity, I wasted a year and half with this company. However I met some of the most amazing people in the world whom I am still very close friends with.)

Anyway, while working a job that couldn’t even pay rent at my apartment, I built website after website trying to earn more income.

After not being appreciated by my boss and not being compensated for my skill, I left. I will never work for that dude again. I’m going forward. I won’t even mention or link to their website.

Now I’m here in South Florida, West Palm Beach, building my empire. I work harder than I ever did, but I’m determined to never go backwards in life.

Oh…so where was I?

Yes, do I miss Cleveland?

First of all I do miss my Family. My mom, dad and brother are in Cleveland. I miss them a lot. I miss my other family up there. (Even the ones that get on my damn nerves about stuff and tell me that I’m chasing rainbows. )

The standard of living in Cleveland was amazingly cheap.

To the ones that said I’m chasing rainbows???

Taste this rainbow…

West Palm Beach Chiropractors

The result of improper tire maintenance. This ...

Image via Wikipedia

In late August of 2011, I was changing a flat tire. I strained my back pretty bad I thought. A week or two later I took my oldest son golfing and later that day, my back and the front of my leg had shooting pain. The pain was so intense that I missed an entire week of work.

I had enough and I went to JFK Emergency in Boynton Beach. They didn’t even have room for me. They had me sit on a gurney in the hall way. A doctor spoke to me for 15 seconds, then after 10 minutes, they gave me narcotics and sent me on my way. The bill… $1650!!! For what? They didn’t treat me. That is not medicine. That is bullshit!

A week after being high on pain pills, I decided to look for a chiropractor in the West Palm Beach area.  I really never been to a chiropractor in my life. My vision of chiropractor was a big guy that throws you around the room and cracks your back. I was pretty reluctant to go to a chiropractor in West Palm Beach.

Then a co-worker of mine told me about a chiropractor in Palm Beach Gardens…. his name…Dr. Thaw. Pretty cool name for a chiro that would help my frozen back. (I’m sure he gets that joke all the time.)

Anyway, I traveled to Palm Beach Gardens and went to see Dr. Thaw. I must say that he is a spectacular individual. This man treated me for my pain by correcting the problem and working with me instead of what the Emergency Room did.

After about 3 weeks of treatment. I was able to walk normally again. I was able to pick up my infant son.

I owe Dr. Thaw a big thank you and that is exactly what I’m doing by writing this to the masses.

If you are looking for chiropractors in West Palm Beach, I suggest you look up Dr. Thaw at PGA Chiropractic

I’m not in Cleveland anymore.

I haven’t really wrote a personal post in a while. Most of you know that I have been a lifelong Clevelander. About a month ago, my family and I moved to South Florida. I liquidated everything and only packed what could fit in a minivan.

I’m in South Florida because my last September, my father-in-law passed, he was killed by a drunk driver. We came down here to help my mother-in-law adjust. They were married for 41 years so there is a big adjustment period.

So I’m here in South Florida trying to adjust too.

The bugs are huge. They have these bugs called Palmetto Bugs…I Googled them and it turns out they are American Cockroaches. I guess the fancy name “Palmetto Bug” is just to soften the blow. To me…they are enormous cockroaches.  AND THEY FLY LIKE RESCUE HELICOPTERS.

The other thing that I’m trying to get used to is the heat and humidity. My hands got tiny blisters within a week of arriving here. I Googled these blisters and it is a from of Eczema brought out from people that aren’t used to the sun. It’s called dihydrosis.  In my entire life I have never had eczema. It must be that my skin has to get acclimated to the rays of sun here.

I do miss my friends, and all other things Cleveland. I especially miss the cheaper living. Gas is a few dimes more down here in South Florida.

If you want to enjoy the nightlife in South Florida, you better have a few more dollars out here than in Cleveland. I bought 3 drinks at a bar in West Palm Beach and the price was 30 dollars. (About 100% more than the price in Cleveland.)

Back to the gas prices…I don’t why they would be higher here, the Gulf of Mexico is not that far away and it’s where they pump all that black gold.

There are some things here in South Florida that are cheaper. FRUITS. Fruit is so cheap here because so many people have fruit trees in their yards. Plus, Florida is the citrus capitol of the United States.

Now that I traded an occasional tornado for an occasional hurricane, how do I feel about hurricanes? I know that if there is a hurricane warning down here…I’ll be the first to start driving to Cleveland.

…..to be continued.

West Palm Beach Realtor

Palm Beach Realtor

After my arrival in West Palm Beach, Florida, I was invited to a BBQ. It was kind of a welcoming of sorts. Brats, steak, and turkey burgers were sizzling on the grill.

At the BBQ I met a very cool and down-to-earth guy named Craig. He is a Palm Beach Realtor. I thought this guy was going to pressure me into buying a house since I was new the the West Palm Beach area. (Right now I’m renting. In a few months, I might be able to purchase a home in West Palm Beach soon.) This wasn’t the case. After some delicious BBQ and some beers, Craig told me everything that the West Palm Beach area had to offer. He gave me the low-down on the Schools in West Palm Beach as well as the crime rate in West Palm Beach.  He seemed like more of an ambassador to the area of Palm Beach than a Realtor in Palm Beach.

I’m not in the market right now to buy a home, but if you need a list of Palm Beach Area Homes for Sale ….Talk to Craig.

West Palm Beach SEO Firm

West Palm Beach SEO Firm

It’s sad that I’m leaving Cleveland next week. I’ll surely miss it. I’m moving to Florida. I know that as soon as I leave, the Cavs will win the NBA championship.

While I’m in Florida, I would love to land a job with a West Palm Beach SEO firm or a West Palm Beach internet marketing company. Why? Internet marketing and search engine optimization have been hobbies of mine as some of you know.

You already know that I’m addicted to social media. The Daily Bragger is everywhere.

I have done some SEO and internet marketing work in the past for friends and paid clients. Now it’s time to move from the winters of Cleveland and head to sunny West Palm Beach, Florida.

I’m excited to move to the West Palm Beach area and further my career in social media optimization, search engine optimization or internet marketing while in Palm Beach, Florida.

So hopefully things will work out for my family and I. Maybe I can use my social media marketing, SEO and internet marketing experience to establish a career in West Palm Beach. Wish me luck.

Cleveland Ohio – Slowest Drive-Thru Fast Food Restaurants

I’m going to continually update this post every time a fast food place makes me waste gas waiting in line at their drive-thru.

Here’s a partial list. Again, I’ll update this info when one of these places makes me mad.

Burger King – West 110th and Lorain.

-This place is super slow. Don’t even try to order something fast like coffee because you’re going to wait a long time. Also, I saw a shot gun blast in the window of their first window. And they never use that first window.

McDonalds – West 117th near Detroit Road.

-They always have two windows going (one for taking your money, and the other for receiving your food). In the morning they are fast, but in the afternoon when the teenagers come to work, forgetaboutit! You’ll waste 15 bucks in gas just waiting for a kid to get an order of fries right. Not to mention, they’ll screw up on your happy meal and make your 4 year old angry.

Burger King – Brookpark near Tiedman Rd.

-They need some new headphones or something on their speaker system. If you ask for “ham” they ask, “You wanna talk to the MAN?” WTF…lol Slow motion and I think they hire individuals with excessive ear wax.

This list will be updated as soon as I order my son’s next happy meal.
