I can't do the cool wave thing like u can cuz I'm lazy. So I'll just say hi instead. I don't have all those fancy pics u do.Hi Josh!
WOW!......Just WOW. I feel for ya, man. I couldn't even begin to imagine how hard that is for you. I know that I'd lose my mind too. I know that words can't really help with that kind of tragedy, but....Sorry.Buck up. I was handed a Black Plastic box 10 years ago containing my Wife. It don't get worse than that. I forgot, 17 months later our only child was killed in a car wreck. I lost my mind, have not bothered to try to find it. I can't explain, there are no words. Someday if I'm good, I may see them again.![]()
Thanks. I cried my 1/2 a gallon. Should be good for a few days. It don't stop, it don't get better. Leaves you just numb. Nothing matters. My will too live is for the most part gone. My body's desire to exist keeps me movin' on. It's freaky. A brand new car is just a machine. A beautiful Motorcycle is just a tool to get somewhere. It's all different, I think maybe I am here to help my friends here.WOW!......Just WOW. I feel for ya, man. I couldn't even begin to imagine how hard that is for you. I know that I'd lose my mind too. I know that words can't really help with that kind of tragedy, but....Sorry.

(I'm continuing my study into the effects of Beer on old Bikers) The coffee pot is loaded though! Got down to a science. Push button on coffee maker, stand there and watch. Requires no skills, little effort, and is somewhat entertaining.Good morning!!

No shit...I'm always chasing slumber!!!Grasp the sweetness of slumber, for it visits but once a day.![]()
I'm so sorry perhaps I missed something? Did something happen to Liz?Liz sleeps.
Yesterday - and the immediate present - have been filled with sorrow, as Liz and I are made for each other - her strengths are my weaknesses, and vice versa.
So, the alarm is set for an early awakening, so that she can finish getting ready. We know at this point that she'll be gone for a minimum of two weeks - longer, if changes happen.
I will miss her so.
Our dogs will be with me, and I will visit
here often to take the sting out of Liz's
absence. The dogs
will miss her, too
I remember a recent
post from one of our
'Corner Patrol' about
crying during a great
film, whether it was
action or romance.
I'm crying, now. Liz
has my heart and
soul, and I love her
very, very much.
As I wrote earlier,
we'll be able to talk
via phone. For now,
that will have to
suffice.
In closing - in my
fifty-three years
alive - I've never
loved, nor have I
ever been loved like
this. I know, I know... what a sap.

Hope everything is normal in the results Pete!!!Good afternoon everyone. Just got back from the VA. Went to talk to doc about a appointment for a biopsy the 21 of Oct.
We need you here to be the best you are, all the strength passion, & knowledge you have are cherished by many. I need you here, I am too weak to do this all by myself. Apart we are weak, together we are strong. From the ashes we can build another day.Well, Liz and I are off. There are other fora here for people like us. @Whiskey, you've been very kind, and helpful.
People like Liz and I relied on drugs and alcohol to gain a semblance of coping skills - for years. Liz has been sober for almost thirteen years.
I've been clean from drugs for over seven years; alcohol, for over six years. My type 1 diabetes went through hell, with the alcohol use
- and that was insane, to live life that way.
It's also insane to post in a forum with the coping skills of an immature child; traits, that people like Liz and I completely relate to, as we spent the majority of our youth - and, adult lives - stunting thd growth of our coping skills with our alcohol and drug abuse.
So, we cling to each other with our emotions wide open, like young children - due to our misspent youth.
For years, we were able to function outwardly, like everyone else; until the skeins of our lives had begun to unravel, revealing our diseases.
Addiction (for me, because alcohol was a self-prescribed pain reliever that my body, with type 1 diabetes, didn't like. Not even the taste); and, Liz - who eschewed drugs because she didn't like the feelings that drugs gave her body and mind (paranoia, disconnectivity of bodily
coordination); so, alcohol was her boat floater.
This is why we love each other the way that we do, because her strengths take up for my weaknesses; and, my strengths take up for her weaknesses.
This is why posting here, in Whiskey's Corner, may not be such a good idea for people of our ken - since many others here may not be where we're at, nor have the compassion, or understanding.
I'm sorry to have wasted my precious words, emotions, and feelings here. Not to mention this thread's space within VU. The people of this particular forum apparently deserve better.
We won't trouble you any further. @LOveWerks, and @Liz Wonder.
