Times are tough for a lot of folks


Recommended Posts

Just an observation and of personal experience. There is a whole lotta people in this country and the world who are hurting this year and I'm no exception. It blows my mind to look at my own fb page and see all the happy photos, motorcycles, guitars etc., you might think I'm loaded and very well off. Well I am well off, I have my health(sometimes when I'm not insane) my daughters are doing well in school and I have lots of great friends but that doesn't mean I'm not struggling. I got very behind on my mortgage, crashed my truck last year, my girlfriend's car had no heat all winter and when I did have work it was outside in a unusually cold New England winter. Gotta tighten the belt even more but I'll always look to the bright side, at least I have a job. My new work truck broke yesterday and I'm back to only having a motorcycle and we might get more snow this week, ugh. My Dad passed last November from a fast acting cancer and the ex-wife is still a ******* fruit loop. All this stress has made me stronger and I never went back to analogs. --Just thought I'd share, I'm sure many of you are experiencing tough times also. Don't give up, it gets better. ---Peace

My deepest condolences on your father's passing, Mike. That's really rough on top of all the other stuff you're dealing with. My mother just passed a little over two weeks ago now and I know what you mean about the stress. I figure if the stress I'm under now doesn't make me go back to the analogs -- I'm good. :)

Hang in there, it really does get better. Each day is a new chance for good things to come around.

The ledge days were last fall when I lost my dad, But that's not why I was on the ledge, ....hard to explain, he was 70 and we knew it was comming. He quit smoking at age 25ish before I was born and the cancer originated elsewhere. I'm good now and feel better than great most all of the time. Thanks for all ur support. I'm gonna have one hell of a rockin summer cuz I deserve it. The band is still together, same guys as last year. Still not quite ready for that cross country tour, lol
