The 411...

Hey Y’all!

Hoping all is well in your neck of the woods!!!

I am doing phenomenal or maybe I should say FUNnomenal?!?

I guess somewhere along the way during the last 4 years I had forgotten what life felt like when the good outweighed the bad. I must say – It has been an excellent breath of fresh air getting back to that place. *taking a deep breath….. AHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhh.

No amount of fun will ever make up for the horror my (and David’s) life became four years ago. With that said, David and I never let his cancer define us. It never – not once sucked the fun completely out of life. We just didn’t allow it. I’ve reached a point in my life - through my healing I suppose - that I no longer have to “fight for fun.” It just comes naturally. Effortlessly.

It wasn’t that long ago that when I caught myself having fun I felt guilty. No more of that either. The hell with it! Life is too f*cking short. Have fun and make the best of what you got. And that I proudly do. It is like my “life coach” in heaven is repeatedly shouting that in my ear (minus the F word of course).

So weather it is going NASCAR racing with my dad, dancing foolishly with co-workers on dining room tables, or a simple fire-pit with great tunes in the backyard --- I’m having fun. And it’s nice. Very nice.

The trick is --- finding someone to share my fun with me. But concentrating on that is tiring and I’ve decided to just let nature take its course. I surely don’t want to force someone on myself. That isn’t fair to anyone. They say patience is a virtue. So --- I’m gonna TRY and give it a shot (key word, TRY)!

Side note for my single shela friends on the prowl: If a guy you totally are uninterested in getting to know approaches you, remember this phrase. They will run faster than the hot fudge on a scoop of ice cream. (With the most serious face you can come up with – say) “So, tell me, do you have swimmers because I’m looking to breed.” Honest to goodness, it works every time. Used it on some ass clown last weekend. The very same ass clown that I witnessed taking off his wedding ring just before his “big approach.” Now that is classic!

Anyway, in closing --- The movie 50/50 --- GO SEE IT! I pray you never can relate to it the way I can. Just as much as I pray I never relate to it the way David could. Bottom line --- it is a must see. I went alone to the 8:15 showing Sunday night because I was hoping to sit without any close by “neighbors”. I got my wish. And for that I am eternally grateful. Good stuff!

Leaving you with a good tune --- (here) --- cause It’s fun and that’s how I like to roll these days… ;) Now where is the closest dining room table? Next time I’m charging admission to the Amy show. LOL

Good night Y’all.

Much love,
