Mike Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 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 Tam, Bebop and Joshuab3687 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bebop Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Hey mike, it's always better just to let it out there. Hope it helps take the edge off. To better days ahead! *raises plastic cup *. Mike and Love2VapeDaily 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rixter Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 It's hard to know what good days should feel like if you don't have a few crappy one to compare 'em to. Chin up. Mike and Love2VapeDaily 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tam Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 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. Mike and Joshuab3687 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted March 24, 2014 Author Share Posted March 24, 2014 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
