Damn near in tears, a couple of times....

It occurred to me that this is completely new. I've never had anyone close to me die that wasn't suppose to. Plenty of Grandparents, aunts and uncles after long battles with cancer and other disease but a couple of days ago a friend and coach on my son's little league team went to sleep and didnt wake up. His son and mine played together for 3 years. That boy was smiling and joking through today's service. I couldnt help but think what his future holds or when reality will sink in. Greg was a great guy, always hosting parties, boating, hunting, poker, all kids of lively, fun shit. No hint of health problems....

Watching all the slides put to music at the service with him and his kids and his wife had my choked up. Dont know when the last time that happened either!

I catch myself wondering wtf i'm doing ruining my life with nothing but work and bills. I aint going apeshit crazy or anything, it's just uncharted territory. Plus a bit of a rant/ramble.

sorry about your friend Spanky. the way i see it all i can do is make sure the life insurance is paid up so if the worst from my perspective happens my wife will have a home for her and the girls, and a little chunck of change to get by on for a bit until she can figure out her next move.

sorry spanky. sometimes we need something like this to slap us back into reality and make us realize what is important. make it a learning experience and get more involved with family and friends. just goes to show you never know when it could all end. sorry for the loss but if possible make something positive come from it.

Yea, thanks fellas. The guy had an overflowing funeral home. That makes me feel a little better, knowing his wife and kids have tons of support. Just never fucking know when your time is up. Pisses me off to see assholes live to old age yet the good ones get taken....
