The last 5 days have been a haze. The week before that was the worst week of my adult life that didn't include the death of my father or father in law. Things are getting better, but I foresee an extended effort to get things back to normal. I don't want to go into detail here and now, but I've received a number of emails asking if everything was ok, so I thought I'd let you know I was still alive.
It will probably be a week or so until I can string together anything resembling a baseball post. I've received a number of packages over the last few days and I hope to give the senders their proper due soon.
Take your time. Brush yourself off. Keep hanging in there.
ReplyDeleteIt does not matter how many times life knocks you down. It only matters that you get back up each and every time. Hang in there, we will be here when you return. (and offering a few words of prayer that things turn around soon and life's troubles leave you stronger for having endured)
ReplyDeleteTake your time...life first...
ReplyDeleteYou're in my prayers...
Fight one more round. When your arms are so tired that you can hardly lift your hands to come on guard, fight one more round.
ReplyDeleteWhen your nose is bleeding and your eyes are black and you are so tired that you wish your opponent would crack you one on the jaw and put you to sleep, fight one more round— remembering that the man who always fights one more round is never whipped.
