Lately I've had very little time to work on our car.

My son is what I live for. And I get home so late, if I spend ANY time in the garage I miss out on ANY time with him. He'd be asleep when I get in.


That's one of the signs.


2nd...Driving down the road, having SubWay for the 2nd night in a row, because it'll be 7:00 or later by the time we get home (my wife and I work together-no we didn't meet at work).


Boy this sucks!! I need this weekend bad.

Death is a "given" and unavoidable; death with regret is my idea of Hell.

You have a very nice perspective ...
Those are profound words ...

My kids are grown and gone creating their own lives ... I do have regrets about spending time with them. But I did the best I could with the tools I had at the time. Hind sight is 20/20, you know. And I was too damn young to be having kids ... out first one was born when I was 20 ...

On the bright side ...

Here I am at 46, good health and making a decent living. I can now enjoy the things I couldn't when I was 26 ...
