never thought I would see the day when the words beautiful and Regent Park were used in the same sentence.
The area has gentrified quite a bit over the years. The neighborhood is still rebuilding, but a ton of development has been done. City lessons aren’t always the best, but if they’re in a nice pool it doesn’t hurt.
would give everything I own for that hour with my oldest son again.... revel in it.
Despite the gripe and moan and early rise, getting to just hang with my boys is the best part of Sunday mornings

I griped and moaned too...then I got my ass handed to me and I realized life will never ever be THAT good and we will never be whole again.

Onward, through the fog....

Yesterday, nearly the end of November, January, I said January, we took a walk to the other end of town to visit the old cemetery. Lived here for decades and never visited. City was founded in 1855 and this is where the original inhabitants ended up. Joseph Heywood's grave is there, the sole townsman who died defending the bank when Frank and Jesse James raided. I need to find out where the dead outlaws were disposed of one of these days. People died fast and young. It's shocking to see. War, disease, work.20240127_135924.jpg20240127_140217.jpg20240127_135736.jpg20240127_140023.jpg

Can't imagine your pain. I hope you find peace
It's been almost 13 years...or...an eternity. It wavers. One day it seems he was here just yesterday. Other days it feels like that day is an eternity of pain away. I try not to drag the cloud with me but it doesn't really work. It rewired me bigtime in so many ways. You can run but you cannot hide.

I'll find peace when I die. Not looking for it before then. But...it is what it is and we ride the ride. Not much else ya can do...

Hug em folks. Take that extra second where you would have let go before...and let it flow through you.
