    Do you miss anything from your work days?

    I miss the adrenaline rush and some of the people I served with.

    Tough dinner conversation with adult live-in daughter

    26, employed full time, no special needs. Time for little sissy lou to spread her wings and leave the nest! Good grief.

    My beloved weed whacker did me dirty (not for the squeamish )

    Just a flesh wound. With the squeamish title I thought I would get to see some muscle and tendons and perhaps bone.

    The 59 1/2 body tune up.

    Guess I'll count myself lucky or blessed then. 61, still lift weights like I did at 40, nothing replaced, haven't been to a doctor in four years. Wife 60, hard as a rock, lifts, runs and isnt falling apart. I'm never gonna give up the fight.

    I Had to Put My Dog Down Yesterday

    Awe man, that's hard. So sorry for the loss. Been through that twice, so hard. Praying fond memories replace the pain soon.
