I thought that a bit of levity might go a long way

Levity goes along way in my life. Somewhere I lost it and know I have found it again. Life is good, even when it is not.

I have also forgotten the things I learned at work. One minute you are here, the next you are gone. Sometimes it is something that you do and sometimes it is something that you have no control over. Either way, the next moment may be your last. So find the enjoyment in the moment that you are at now, no matter how bad it is. There may not be another.

Yenko, thanks for that perspective. I think that it's easy for each of us to forget to be thankful for what we have.

I used to work with a guy who 20 years ago worked in the Oil industry and one day a steam valve vented and he got blown off a 150' oil platform. Now he can move one arm a couple of inches and uses a stylus to type with.

That's right, sometimes things happen that you have no control over. That's another tough one to reconcile.

Certain careers you deal with it so much it is easy to accept. Thanks for stopping by Dan. I will catch up on your thread sometime, it was a long day today. I don't even have the energy for levity right now. Maybe later.

hey I see ya found my thread! I agree with what you said up above, this year with my health issues, I try to remind myself of that, often.

yes us midwesterners have some spunk, esp this one lol!! To bad you live so far away, could have made you come dressed up for work and hang out with me at the football game, now wouldnt that have made the OW squirm LOL!

heheheh I was lol about you driving by the om and him seeing you, I bet he really squirms everytime he does see a county car, that would be priceles to see lol!

hope you are doing better today, it would be a beautiful day for softball here, but we didnt put a team in the big tourny in hutch, didnt want to play all the big teams using it as a warm up for worlds lol!

Yeah yesterday was kind of bad. Today not much better.

At work we went to a shot's fired call. Another deputy put me in a position that I could have been shot. Turned out to be nothing, but you never know.

When I get back I have a letter from my W's L. It has a tentative distribution of our assets. It also says that "even though W has signed the papers to start the divorce, we will not file those until we have done our best to resolve all issues between the two of you."

Been finding out other stuff about the W. She sure is blazing a trail of chaos around here and burning bridges. Just got to keep her from dragging me into the chaos. Maybe more on that later.

o bad you live so far away, could have made you come dressed up for work and hang out with me at the football game, now wouldnt that have made the OW squirm LOL!

I am sure it would. I am 6'4" and about 210 lbs. A couple guys were talking about it at work today that when I want to I can look really intimidating.

Did go by OM house again today and he was outside. But, I was doing about 90 mph so could not see the reaction. Blew by my MIL on the way to that call. Called her later and she said it woke her up when I went by. She is a great woman.

Our softball season is over for the year. It would be nice to play a little more before the weather turns bad. I will just have to wait until next year.

Got to love the WAS. I tried to call D11 this morning and nobody was home. So I sent the W a text.

M: can you have D11 call before I get off also need to talk with
you for a minute
W: she's at aunt C, what do you need now?
W: oh let me guess. something came up and u cant keep her
tomorrow
M: can you bring her clothes tomorrow get them from you at court
thanks
W: Thought you were working on the house all week?
M: got some things to do in the morning then the pre trial
(for SD16's rape case)
W: you must be busy tonight is she has to call you before you get
off work. I think I have the right to know who she is if she
is gonna be a part of my daughter's life
M: am busy tonight, already explained myself about me dating

Sometimes she is such a joy to deal with. I will have to wait until tomorrow and she if she goes nuclear about some other things.

As far as me, the letter from the L did hurt some. Now that it is not just talk and put down in black and white. I try and work through it as fast as I can and go back to enjoying life. Still have the ups and downs sometimes, but it is easier to control now.

Overall here is how I feel

hey i was gonna let you know, I didnt let her ruin our nite btw, it was actually probably more uncomfortable for her than me, and i didnt have to do anything, the masses there did it for me lol! the fun was knowing she was there, before she knew we were there, watching her when she saw us, H hadnt seen her yet, and one of my school "sons" got hurt, and he walked right up to me and held me, til they got him to the sidelines where I could go check on him(his parents dont even watch him)she was LIVID. then my D and the cheerleaders where loading the tshirt gun, when she was so busy staring at H and not watching, D shot the tshirt and it almost took her head off. OMG I have a great D!!
