Mind kinda sucks. Lost my Dad in Dec, I'm getting a divorce, and I'm working.

 But, I'm alive and kicking and they sell beer on Sunday in Guntown.

Lost my dad in October of 2013.  Next to my divorce, it was the SECOND most difficult thing I've ever endured.
I'm a far better divorced person than I ever was a married person.  He drove me batshit crazy.

It's 10:30 and I've already cut the grass and done the weed eating.  It's going to take more than beer...



That's me and dad shooting in April of 2007.  On the right is a photo of Lewis Falls at Yellowstone.  He wanted to go to Yellowstone but got ill too quickly to go.  This is where we scattered part of his ashes.

Day by day.  Like eating an elephant--one bite at a time.
Keep looking forward, but remember the direction you came from.  Sometimes remembering the past means you don't repeat a mistake.

As soon as we get my best bro's (since 1979) 26' cabin cruiser running, we're gonna party up and down the Tenn-Tom. My cousin wants me to fly to Orlando on his dime and stay as long as I want.  Probably try to get to CWE this year or CWW next year. Probably hit the coast and hang out with some Colabros.

Try to apply that to every aspect of my life, work, dating, etc... it really is the only way to go. Far easier said than done however.

ETA: I do still have my dad and I thank God for that. He and my mom do their best to keep me sane
