...More to come eventually (soon)

Thanks for sticking around or clicking in from Pinterest.  Things are super busy right now and there is a lot of work to be done which will take me away from this blog for a day or more.  What I can currently say is that there is still a lot of emotional work related to my dad's passing that I am in the middle of, there are also counseling sessions happening that are very helpful, and my wife and I have recently separated.  Life looks really shitty on the outside but, surprisingly, I am feeling fairly well on the inside; one might even say a bit serene.  I am at more peace than I have been in, in quite a long time.  Stay tuned or follow me on Pinterest for a glimpse into the things that massage my nerve endings.

Happy Birthday Dad...

...because I can't ever tell you face to face anymore.  I love you deeply and miss you dearly. 

Chi misses you a lot.  He's always asking for "papa" when he sees my phone, so he can listen to your voice on the voicemail you left, that I saved, from my last birthday.  Thank you for leaving that message.  He knows that you are in his heart and all around.
