Howdy, LUV!

Mine would have been a “B” year, I guess, if Dad hadn’t died. That was the big downer.

I’m right there with ya on being ready to be rid of the idiots in charge in DC.

Hi Luv! Sorry I’m late but I was “forced” to watch the Penguins-Blackhawks hockey game with my son. :)

I got a “B” for my year, and why not? I’m pretty content; coasting, actually. I’m satisfied with my life and don’t have a whole lot more to accomplish. At least I see no need to risk health and sanity over work and stuff.

He is at peace now. That’s the one thing that makes his loss bearable. He was sick for a while.
But life goes on and I have many wonderful memories and a LOT of emails I’m saving that keep him “alive”. :-)

Congratulations, belatedly, on your beautiful baby girl! Children are such a blessing. No matter what else, you were given a gift of joy this past year.

Hey Teenie, Conor honored your Michael tonight, and rightfully so.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Same here. But he’s still with me and always will be.
And there’s still plenty to be thankful for so life is good.

LOL! I’m getting my “thang” back. Just been a while since I spent every night at the Canteen and I was rusty.

“Maturity is the acceptance of an ever-lengthening list of limitations” - henkster

With maturity, I’m now grateful that God didn’t curse me with too many brains. If He had, I would have been snapped up out of law school by some big firm, where I would have worked 10 hour days seven days per week, and wound up a burned out divorced alcoholic on anti-depressants at age 34. Instead, I didn’t chase money, have a nice home, enduring marriage, grown sons with every prospect of being successful in their own right, and I am respected in my profession and my community. Yes, I have every reason to be content with that.
