someday you'll understand just how much I do.

I

I

mean how do you tell people you met someone you've already known your whole life?

You can't.

There's no point in even trying.

Yes

he will.

Yes

I do.

I

don't say it much here any more because I know a lot more people than I want to think about will see it and I don't like it when people of faith call attention to themselves.but here are the facts:

I give thanks everyday, everyday, for a roof over my head, clothes on my back, and food in my belly.

Anything and everything above this?

Blessings.

I rarely ask for anything for myself when I pray, generally when I pray its a bout lifting up others and their needs, not mine. If I do ask for something? It's usually health and peace of mind, that's it.

When I get down about things?

That's the best time to forget about yourself and your troubles and lift others up.

I

just wish people understood this is not of our doing.

If they could find a way to accept that?

Then maybe it wouldn't be so difficult for some of them.

I mean I had somebody look at me yesterday with that deer in the headlights look, like:

"How in the world is this possible? How is this happening"

Well?

I just told them.

:-)

Yep

Richie Valens

"It will be a gas kitten. Will you come?"

asking Donna to his first gig with a band :-).

I plan on using that a lot lol.

Every time I ask you somewhere :-).

"It will be a gas kitten. Will you come?"

Pull

your hair and ravish you huh?

Damn girl, boy has been tryin for years.

Love you Virgie.

Love you

Be awesome today.

And

yes, I did wake up with something for you this morning lol.

You've been derelict in your duties far to long lil one.

Memorable Moments Christmas 2016

Lunch with Nich, mom and Al at the Mellow Mushroom.

Sitting with mom during the Christmas Eve communion service at Hilldale UMC and visiting with Alan afterwards.

Watching "A Christmas Story" with mom and Al Christmas Eve.

Breakfast Christmas Morning with Christian, Halie and the boys. 

Dinner with mom and Al Christmas Day.

Watching the Steelers vs Ravens with Al Christmas Day.

Getting to see Fawn, Jason, Rusty and Alyssa for a lil while.

Philly beating the Giants and handing Dallas the NFC East Division title :-).

Visiting with Ricky and Karen and getting some much needed encouragement, not to mention a nice lil surprise :-).

Watching movies and having dinners with Christian and his clan.

A nice lil note from  my buddy David Lash that was very much appreciated and very unexpected.

It's not all about the gifts and Santa and all the other bull shit we make it about.

It's just not.

Any

particular reason that last ass cheeks pic had a New Years Eve vibe to it?

Or was it

I

can tell what certain people say/think:

 "Oh he got to big for his britches."

I'm over here like:

"Naw...

Not really...

 Finally? 

They're about the right size for once :-).

Love ya Lucy.

People

who constantly bring up your past and wish you were how you were years ago are toxic and should and will be dealt with accordingly.

Lucy?

How many times you ever seen me knocked down that I didn't ever get back up :-)?

13-2.

Bye first round of the playoffs.

Homefield advantage throughout the playoffs.

Sundays game against Philly is meaningless.

Win two games at home during the playoffs?

Superbowl bound baby!

You did get the yoga pants right?

Know

what?

Even after everything you put me through?

I still might let you lick my nutsack.

Maybe.

Not sure yet.

Haven't made up my mind.

Leaning toward no to be honest.

I'll let you know something when I make up my mind.

Bahahahahahahahahahaha.

Defiant and sarcastic till the very end sweetheart.

Love you Lucy.

You

know?

People can choose to be badass about things.

People can choose to play the victim about things.

Know what you can't do?

Play the victim and be badass at the same time.

Just doesn't work like that.

Love

you Lucy.

Are

all yall on crack or something?

Oh, I'm so scared, whatever could be happening :-)?
 

Mark 11:23 Indeed.

I always felt like somebody was gonna find me in the backwoods of KY as well sweetheart :-)

Woman Logic

part number? 

I have no idea, you tell me these days :-).

Our love is so one-sided.

 (He loves me so much).

I'm scared he's gonna leave.

See why we love y'all?

Nite Bambi, love you.

Sacked out

from 3:45 till 9?

Went to the Dr this AM.

Got two shots and a Zpac.

Haven't tried the Zpac in years, so I'll guess we will see.

Feelin better.

Actually made a grilled cheese and ate it.

Down to 185 lbs.

Better come get me while there is still some of me left sweetheart :-).

BP was 130/90.

Bout where it has been for four years now.

I bet you if I could get one issue resolved in my life?

Those numbers would both drop.

But still, to be 52 and be within 10 lbs of my BMI and not be taking any BP medicine?

I'll take it.

Love you.

Relax

Think of all the reasons it will work and none of the reasons it won't somebody always seems to be telling me :-).

We didn't put this together Virgie.

Thats the reason its going to work.

The

Ranata Suzuki | Living With Pain quote was spot on.

Works both ways too.

Love you.

Oh?

And yesterday?

I said ass cheeks not lingerie.

Can't you get anything right?

Bahahahahahahahahahahaha

Morning

Knucklehead.

Know what will make you feel unsexy as hell?

Eye boogers and snot.

Betcha can't wait to kiss me now can ya?

Love you Virgie.

I

wish you understood just how bad I feel.

I get so sick of getting sick.

I

told you a long time ago but it seems you forgot.

You're going to have to beg.

A lot.

Bahahahahahahahahahaha

And

if you're worried about passion not lasting?

You're more than free to look for some somewhere else :-).

Love you Virgie.

Any

particular reason someone asked me to try out a video walkie-talkie on the phone and my buddy already had Christmas with his family there numbnuts?

Inquiring minds wanna know :-).

You

do realize I'm out of just about out of everything right?

I mean you understand this?

Cause it aint no big secret.

Know

how you know you're above someone?

They always keep trying to knock you down.

Just

because you forgive somebody?

Doesn't mean you have to be around them.

It

just seems like with all the bullshit I deal with?

Some ass cheeks here or there would be nice.

You know?

Make a boys day every once in a while why dontcha?

Love ya Bambi.

"Throw

it all at me

I can shrug it off"

Really

really fed up with some bullshit.

Morning

Knucklehead.

Love you.

Lil under the weather last PM and today but seem to be getting better.

Yes, you should be proud of me.

I have come a long way.

Few would have made it.

But I know its not me.

So that makes it easier.

At least from time to time :-).

I can see a picture unfolding.

I told you several times a good while back, as long as I can see wheels turning?

I'm good.

When there were lulls in the action I could see is when I would flip.

I'm not about recognition.

I'm really not.

I read a long time ago, "Recognition tends to find it's rightful owner."

I thought, "Well that certainly is true."

Haven't ever worried about it much since.

But today?

This morning?

Yes.

There certainly was a lil expectation about being recognized for yesterday.

So one, you're welcome, and two, thank you.

Now?

Would you please do something about those ever-lovin ass cheeks?

Someone

was awfully nice on IG earlier today :-).

You goin soft on me girl?

Bahahahahahahahahaha

It's

all just so fuckin surreal...

Know what makes more sense?

Keep on doing what we've been doing to this point.

Why wouldn't we?

I mean it makes more sense to keep doing what got ya here than to just stop all the sudden doesn't it?

Why don't people look at it that way Lucy?

I think we both know why.

Love you.

Morning

At the end of the day sweetheart?

I just want my girl.

Revelation 3 14-22

One 

of 

the 

commentaries 

I 

read 

on 

this 

passage 

said 

something 

to 

the 

effect 

of:

 "Don't let material wealth or intellectual pride come between you and  God."

Sounds like good advice to me :-).

I figure:

A) I'll go down.

To late to change that now, no need to worry about it any more.

B) I'll be the happiest guy in the world

or

The preferred option

C) I'll go down and be the happiest guy in the world.

Bahahahahahahahaha

And you said you crack yourself up :-).

Not as much as I crack myself up sweetheart.

Bahahahahahahahaha

BTW?

Thanks for the spoiler alert :-).

I figured as much.

You know, you being all hardcore and me loving it so much and stuff :-).

Apparently?

You've never experienced a fat kid eating cake :-).

Bahahahahahahaha.

Revelation 3:21

Revelation 3:21

Actually?

Verses 14-22.

But I really like verse 21.

Either

literally :-)

or figuratively :-).

Bet I know which you would prefer :-).

Dave always liked Beth Hart.

Tal Wilkenfeld is a beast on bass.

More like

24/7/365 :-).

Bro Joe's

sermon this past Sunday may be my favorite I've ever heard him preach.

Basically, if you don't continue to seek God after having received blessings?

Then they weren't from God.

Worth remembering Lucy :-).

Love you.

Yeah

she is.

Morning

Sunshine.

I swear it was around four years ago at this time I made a lil trip down south looking for somebody.

But what do I know?

Love you Bambi.

Be awesome today sweetheart.

Remind

me to tell you the story of the $163.

Love you.

Nite.

Morning Sunshine.

Love you.

Morning

Knucklehead :-).

Just had to show you I could sweetheart.

Now, can we get down to business?

I mean, "I just looooove good business" if you catch my drift :-).

Love you.

"Oh

you mean you don't blah blah blah anymore?" 

(Fill in your own blank.)

When I know 

that they know, 

and I know they know I know they already know.

Fuckin makes me wanna vomit.

20 fuckin months of this insanity.

I'm not going to say anymore.

Cause if I do it's just going to piss you off and I don't want and neither of us need that right now.

Count your fucking blessings.

Cause I'm a loose it all just to show you I will kinda guy.

Seriously

if you want the world to know what I go through for you?

You ought to let them know just how badly it excites you.

Seems fair to me.

Gotta get.

ttyl.

Go Cowboys!

You

know?

I wish there was a direct correlation between just how badly you want the world to know what I go through for you/us/the dream and how wet your panties get when you see it happening.

Cause it seems like everyone knows about one of the above mentioned items, yet it feels like I'm the only one that knows about the other?

Gimme a break Bambi.

Love you sweetheart :-).

Tell

me about it.

Morning

Sweetheart.

Love you.

Promise

:-).

Sittin

here lookin at bike parts.

And in

the, 

"You wonder why you kill me department?"

I told you two fucking years ago how spent I was...

Yet I'm the one that doesn't understand?

OkieDokey.

Makes all the sense in the world to me.

Well?

I'd sure like to know.

Rumi

"When you’re anxious or worried, be patient. The key of patience opens the door of happiness."

Maybe?

I understand but convinced myself I didn't so that I could keep what lil bit of sanity I have left?

Cut me some slack Lucy.

Yall had years sweetheart.

Love you Dollbaby.

Whatever

I'm not understanding?

I'm sorry.

Love you.

Nite.

Woman Logic part blah blah blah...

You kill me :-).

Seriously :-).

You really do.

Ya kill a boy multiple times over.

Then you worry about him.

Why not?

Just not kill the boy to begin with?

Then?

You wouldn't have to worry about him.

I know I know...

That logic is way to fucked up to comprehend etc...

Relax.

I'm bout as good as I'm ever gonna be here for a lil bit.

Love you Bambi.

Now?

About those ass cheeks?

Bahahahahahahahahaha

You

do know Dallas can clinch the division with a win against the NY Football Giants Sunday Night in  NY?

You do know that right :-)?

Hey, clinching the division is always nice.

Clinching the division on the road?

 In NY?

Against the Giants?

Avenging your only loss of the season?

On their turf?

If you're an NFL player or fan of a team in that situation?

It's the kinda thing you dream about.

Morning

Sunshine.

Reminded me of somebody.

Can't really remember who, but somebody.

Bahahahahahahahaha.

Be awesome today.

Love you.

Love you.

How

many people do you know that could tell you why Russia and China only have one aircraft carrier each?

Just wondering Lucy.

BTW?

My hunch was correct on this one.

Dave Matthews Band is generous as fuck, y’all

"Over the course of the Bama Works Fund’s 17 years, it’s raised more than $40 million for causes primarily focused in Charlottesville as well national and global charities. It has given out over 1,200 grants to such worthwhile causes as Charlottesville’s SPCA, a bevy of parks, the American Cancer Society, and Meals on Wheels."

You're

just the baddest mamajama I ever met.

Period.

How

could I ever forget?

Love you Lucy.

Damn

The "wheated" members of Buffalo Traces' Antique Collection.

Hey,

a W is a W is a W.

I got a saying lol.
I got plenty of sayings lol.

"I don't care if they win by one point in OT on a bad call.
Round 'em up, get 'em on the buses and get headed back home thinking bout next week."

I was worried about this game.
Everybody would be like "Minnesota?"
Yeah, Minnesota, on the road after having won 10 in a row, including a hard fought emotional win over division foe Washington on Thanksgiving Day.

Bound to have a let down sooner or later and this was it.
They played real sloppy with way to many turnovers and penalties.

Now however the pressure is really on the NY football Giants.
Dallas has a two game lead with four games left.
A NY loss to Pittsburgh this weekend would make it an almost insurmountable three game lead in the division.

How bout them Cowboys Lucy?
:-).
