    Can easily relate. Some folks are S.O.B.'s.
    Don't let the past hold you back though. Live your full life.
    I know. sometimes easier said then done. Worthy goal though.

    Today is the first day without rain for three days. Birds are flocking to the wife's feeder. Some at the feeder, some feeding on seeds knocked out of the feeder on the ground. One of the barn cats was stalking the birds on the ground. A couple of blue jays attacked him and ran him all the way across the yard and under a shed. One would dive and peck him while the other would circle around for another dive. They really kept him running! Had to grin.

    I looked into those beautiful blue eyes that belong to my wife and best friend of 29-1/2 years. I married up for sure.
    Best, Thomas.

    My wife and I ate dinner out tonight. We got a booth by the window and our toddler got to see all his favorite things drive by. He saw a bunch of school buses and even a train. I don't know why his favorite things are school buses, but he loses it when he sees one, even though he sees them every day.

    My side porch faces a busy city intersection, and the little ones all get excited at the sight of the huge loud yellow bus with all the flashing lights and a sign that waves to them. That will all change in a few years when the find out where it takes them.

    Well, actually last few days. I can read the monitor without glasses, was coming back home a couple nites ago, wife driving, and I could read the street signs. Drove to McKinney to visit with some friends from Seattle. This morning it's getting the tile guys to replace ~ 400 sq. ft. of tile - to make her happy. Cracked slab & broken sewer pipe got fixed last year, roof replaced, sodded half the front yard after the bad drought last few years. Should have planted tap root trees instead of live oaks - they suck all the top water off. Won't be getting any new guns soon.
    Whatever!

    After an all night soaker. I open the garage door to get the kids to the bus stop and I get the smell of worms. Reminds me of when I was a kid going camping and fishing. It is the best smell ever.

    When I sit down to look at my rifles in the safe.....
    I can very consistently shoot one inch groups at 100 yards.
    When I sit on the bench at the shooting range.....
    I always wish I was sitting down looking at my rifles in the safe.

    Took the boy (can't call him that much longer, he's 14 and about 4 inches shorter than I am) out mushroom hunting yesterday. He was off school today home with mom and she said it was all he could talk about, all the stuff we saw. And we didn't even find one mushroom...

    Yep. Had that happen a few times while hunting. Didn't see a thing.

    Mushrooms are fast!

    the boy didn't destroy the house so that was a plus.

    The fact I woke up this morning makes me smile.
    The fact I made it out of bed makes me smile.
    The fact that we can say "President Trump" really makes me smile!
