this is my day at work today...
I'd like to post a few excerpts from PM's I saved over the years .. just a little pre-Thanksgiving Day remembrance .. as I browsed thru these, I believe something must have gotten in my eye ..
Debbie / my4jewels .. "Inspite of our differences, we are a pretty tight knit group, kinda like a family, and we care about one another." ..
"Time does seem to move faster as we get older, at least I think so. Funny that I should inspire you. Last night, my thoughts were also of summer coming to a close, and I found myself having a total meltdown, wondering if this was my last summer. If I allow myself to entertain those thoughts for more than a nanosecond, they take me over. My eyes are still puffy from crying. I gave myself 20 minutes to have a pity party, and then said, "That's it"! Today I am much better emotionally. Yep, it's all about perspective. "
old hippy .. "Sometimes, I would just like to walk out my front door, with my guitar and a spare pair of undies, and start hitch hiking somewhere far away. Just keep going for days with no place in mind. Facing the fear- knowing that no one or nothing could ever do more than just kill me, and that nothing could ever hurt more than the hell I had already lived through, then could come back home and be ok for a year or so. I am trying to "come out" again via this Thread." ..
my old Friend Randall .. txtumbleweed .. "If I don't get my miracle I don't think I have much longer, Maybe a few months maybe a few weeks just never been down this trail before so I don't know what to expect. I've been enjoying my new grand daughter and I've been able to baby sit her a few hours everyday this week. Cherish it while I can"
a shout out to williegntx who met his first love in Anaheim, CA in 1960 ..
And to all that have come and gone over the years, thanks .. and thanks to all that are here now ..
Love the videos Dave.....and love that you've found a satisfying hobby to play with. We all need to have happy distractions that we enjoy in our lives..
Thanks. I appreciate it. Let me know what I owe you. I'll send you my address when you have it cause I don't want you sending it to the wrong place. You have my address in Hampton right?@MattB101 I take it you are going to have your mixing supplies with you right. I'm putting in an vapocolypse order from my buddy in Germany and I thought I might pick you up a 10ml bottle of the best strawberry you have ever had. Even my wife likes it cause it tastes like the strawberries out of her mom's garden. You only need about 2.25%.
Doree and I running around packing and taking care of last minute stuff as we hadn't planned on leaving for another three weeks. Taking everything cept the kitchen sink as we will be gone almost two months.

One long ago Thanksgiving I was preparing thanksgiving dinner for 30 in a very small apartment kitchen. About an hour before the guests were to arrive I had an "I Love Lucy" moment. Turned the hot water handle on the kitchen sink to wash up a few dishes quick and the handle blew off. Hot water shooting up nearly to the ceiling. So much straight hot water was running down under the sink we couldn't get to the water cutoff. We had to call the maintenance folks to turn off water to the building long enough for us to shut off the one under the sink. Then clean up the mess and go on with thanksgiving. With no dishwasher dinner dishes for 30 was an interesting prospect that night.In the bathroom sink, or , it there's a lot, in the bath tub...don't ask me how i know.....
