PENNY:Our Wild Daughter Of Dollar Bill

So we are now living in Charlotte NC after a wild roller coaster of a year in 2013. I am hard at work on my first book A LIFETIME IS TOO LONG TO SLEEP and arranging my newer k.lloyd songs for releases on both Altco and Rusty Knuckles.Penny is the offspring of our departed Dollar Bill.Dollar passed away Thanksgiving of 2013 and he is dearly missed by Simerly and myself.Penny was kind of removed in Dollars last days because she attacked him as his health deteriorated.Dollar had 2 very large cancerous tumors and we could only try and keep him comfortable in his final days.One tumor was much too close to his heart to even consider surgery.I can't speak,write or explain the joy that Dollar Bill brought to my life and the reality of how much unconditional love he brought to my life.I spent much of 2013 in a frenzy.I had been misdiagnosed and was being improperly medicated.Towards the end of the year I ended up hospitalized in Charlotte twice.I am still recovering from a complete mental breakdown and as I build my way back to some sense of normal I am putting the many ideas I had into action.

   You see I want to help Pitbulls now as much as they have helped me.Not trying to jump on a trend or "look cool" in any way.I firmly see what an amazing breed of dog this is and can so relate to their misunderstood nature.I being diagnosed bi-polar( amongst other things) understand how it feels to have no one seem to understand.Regardless this is not about me.I am starting a non-profit organization to first help Pitbulls in some way.Secondly to help musicians who are addicted to drugs and/ or Alcohol and want to get help.Given this is probably not the best way or place to start but I am following my heart and not waiting to get the word out. The heart with wings is a symbol I associate with myself and feel that it represents the fact that even the toughest and hardest hearts have the ability to fly and do good things if they are nurtured.We are going to release a t-shirt with this graphic and plan to use all the proceeds to building a website and getting the basics done and up to get this organization going.Not sure what exactly it will entail in the beginning but me and Simerly are hoping to have somewhere that we can start rescuing at least a hand full of Pitts and keeping them Untill they can be re adopted.The show Pitbulls And Parolees shows me that my idea is one that's been proven to work.I know that from my own experience that working with one of these wonderful dogs can change your life and being in ways you never thought possible.I hope that I can do justice to Dollar Bills honor with this attempt to make a little difference.Recovery has taught me that helping for just the sake of helping brings about a happiness and wholesomeness that I never in my existence have felt or Experienced.As for these photos,well how can you not find a dog that watches T.V. Cute? Penny brings much joy to my life but man she's a wild one still at almost 10 years old.

  So in conclusion we hope that you find it in your hearts to help out or just show support to this organization.Its yet to be fully built so please stay tuned and we hope you find joy in our story as it develops if nothing else.We hope to have many Disciples Of Chaos by this same time next year.
