Springtime In Dunbridge (for all the lovers in the house)

I just finished the first mowing of the season. It is with this great ritual, the changing from snow plow to mower deck that I am reminded just how fortunate I am. Because I was again mowing the grass here at The Truckstop I must have made it through another winter. Winter seems to be the real test of will and wits alike here in the great Midwest. Couple this with the fact that this week marks the third year that I have not been gainfully employed. I would have never guessed in a million years that my life's script would have played out this way. Even though things remain frustrating on the employment front I have much to be thankful for. I could not have made it through this far without the love and support from friends and family. It is though the love and support from people like you, and you, and you, and you, and you and you and you and you oh and you too and you as well, and in the back yeah you, and you and you, and you and you, you and you and you and you and you. I love you all.

God Only Knows

For those of you that are not aware, in 1966 The Beach Boys released their seminal album Pet Sounds. And as I sit here in the twilight of my 37th Thanksgiving and given my current job/economic situation it would be easy for me to sit here and say that I really don't have much to be thankful for. Well nothing could be further from the truth. I continue to be blessed with the best group of family and friends. The love and support that I have been shown over the last two plus years is nothing short of incredible. I would like to thank all of you for the the free meals, love, support, free roof labor, free rounds of golf, free movies, free electrical work, love , support, The Dryer Fairy, free comedy club tickets, stolen three-ring binders, parking validation, hearing me bitch, free lawn mower rental, free Tiger tickets, understanding, love, support and everything else. God only knows what I'd be with out you.
