Things Just Happen

Category: Life As I Know It | Posted: Mon Sep 05, 2016 4:27 am

So much has happened since I last posted in July. For starters, my youngest son moved to Canada after marrying his on line sweetheart. That is a story in itself, but I want to focus more on the fact that my wife and I are empty-nesters now. It's hard to believe that all three of my children are married and out of the house. It's pretty depressing to me because I love having my kids around. At least the other two are still in the same state as I am.

The second thing that happened is that a good friend died unexpectedly last week. He was 67 years old, but in good health. It is believed that he died from heat exhaustion. It was so sad because he didn't have any family that I am aware of. I've been dealing with everything and it's opened my eyes a lot about how to deal with the death of someone. I can honestly say that I haven't spent a lot of time thinking about that.

Between those two events I am emotionally drained. I'm praying that things can go back to normal soon.

Sorry to hear about your friend's sudden passing EG. That's very sad.

Thanks Frank. It's been hard because he was a really good friend.
