it is getting tough here

Mrs K just got diagnosed with COPD this week, I have not played or sang any music in 2 months. Mrs cannot even walk 50 feet right now. I am scared. I would love the rum, and have had a few. I guess this is one of those crisis points. Im fighting,,talking to psyche, trying to sing in my "quieter" mind moments, none of it seems to fit anymore. at end of day,,Im still scared.

For sure, there are things for COPD that help immensely,I have it and use spiriva, my wife also has it both long term smokers... it is spendy but get it through Canada a whole lot cheaper...

Only other thing I can say at this time is "Go To A Meeting" talk to people they will help,you can make it ...

It’s hard. My daughter’s (now ex) boyfriend relapsed. Meth. He had some issues and just fell back into it. Stay strong, you can do this.

There are many places where you can talk and get help, love and support. It is a tough time indeed but you'll get through it.

we met with the auctioneer to sell Mrs K Dads' home. Signed the contract,, it is Ron Ramsey Auctioneer.. yes THAT poitical Rom Ramsey from Tn, he went to high school with Mrs K. And while he and I walked through Mrs K's Dads home again,, I kept saying,,,how does it feel to work for a Democrat? Honestly,, he was very cool about it and we verbally jabbed, laughed and never fought. I know he is getting paid to do this,,but he gave Mrs K a very,,,actually, beyond very reasonable rate to help her. 10% on all,,he advertises, he sells, he cleans that home,,and he told me, I'll even take your jabs and not raise the percentage....Sometimes,life make you smile
