Today being my 63rd birthday, I started the day with my usual birthday hopefulness. Hoping I'll get at least one thing I wanted, a good meal out of the usual, and no major malfunctions. So far so good, insomuch as the latter is concerned. Dinner and the rest being worked on at the moment. Even my 2nd youngest son smiled at me last night with a kind word. I'm still waiting to get tossed under the bus. With guns stacked all over the man cave, I'm hoping for at least one 5-gun rack. And a display case for my smaller collectible rifle stuff would be beneficial as well. I'll have to wait and see till this evening. Then again when my middle son gets home from work at 11:30PM. Tomorrow I wanna rearrange the man cave one more time to get things righter.
All that aside, If I'd have been told I'd be partially disabled from age 50 on, I'd have said ya got rocks in yer head! I worked harder than I could stand for so long...just to wind up like this? It's been ny on to 15 years since I could lay down to sleep in a bed. Dang, I miss that. Besides with my wife. I wish they'd have mentioned 35+ years ago that walkin' around & workin' on rebar reinforced concrete was bad for anything connected to your spine. Then this county havin' Echeck to mess with me even more.
But, still in all, the family seems to be takin' my birthday more serious this year. I wonder if it's because my daughter's back from SoCal? And I wish I could change this city's mind about shooting air guns in my back yard. That would've been nice. I just wanna hunt and fish again until it's time to go face whatever reward awaits me. But for now, It's birthday time again and all the precious memories that always seem to put a lump in our throats, a tear in our eye, and a smile on our face. May we all be truly blessed for family to share days like these in our lives. Alone we are nothing...save for hurtful, spiteful and lonely. So, in light of that, I am thankful. Now if I could just walk move and stand normal again...
