Good morning crew,

It looks like the entire weekend is going to be cloudy and rainy in my area, so probably no big Memorial Day adventures, unless the wife has something up her sleeve.

To be perfectly honest I'm looking forward to a nice, quiet relaxing weekend...which probably means I won't have an hour to myself.

I'll let you know if there are any adventures next week!

Laugh it up,

Joe

As I Mature...

I've learned that you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is stalk them and hope they panic and give in.

I've learned that no matter how much I care, some people just aren't worth it.

I've learned that it takes years to build up trust, and it only takes suspicion, not proof, to destroy it.

I've learned that you can keep vomiting, long after you think you're finished.

I've learned that we are responsible for what we do, unless we are celebrities.

I've learned that regardless of how hot and steamy a relationship is at first, the passion fades, and there had better be a lot of money to take its place!

I've learned that 99% of the time when something isn't working in your house, one of your kids did it.

I've learned that the people you care most about in life are taken from you too soon, and all the less important ones just never go away.

"Are you all right?" my seatmate on the plane asked, after noticing tears roll down my cheeks.

"I'm flying my husband's ashes home for burial," I explained, "and it just struck me that this will be our last trip together."

"I know how you feel," she said. "I had my horse for 20 years and just put him to sleep last week."
