A letter from Mar 20, 2023

Peaceful right?

Dear FutureMe, HAPPY BIRTHDAY AGAIN, glad to see another year. Please tell me you are now spending it with "You know who"...... you have been through enough and need just to let go. She's not getting any better. One day you will have a wife, we don't know when or where but hopefully you will be in a different city, different state and will have found the right one to spend and share your life with. Hopefully, she is full of adventure, life sensibility, and common sense. DONT give up! Keep pushing, the kids need you and I need you.

Dear Future Me,

It’s the day after your 47th birthday, and what a blast it’s been!...
