    It has been some time since I stayed on here long enough to make a what I would call long post. It is hit and miss, I find myslef with plenty of time to visit, but to be honest it is hard. It is like going to the families house after a long stay away, everything here is the same, but I have changed.

    Today it has been two months, and the moving on process it slowly coming about. I am happy to say I have my depression under control, with the outreach of friends the time has gone by fast, and has been uplifting.
    The girls are doing super, time has flew by for them also. The questions they ask, are answered straight away. We hide nothing here and if you all were to talk to them the would be up front honest.

    The sad news is my ride, I have not spent the time on it like I should. It is tough and trying to make a decision on what to do is tougher. It is almost like I am waiting for the "go ahead" before I start. This too I know will pass, just need to jump on the so called band wagon order the stuff and get on the phone for some help.

    Since I spoke of good news, I can say as of right now, I am no longer in any sort of dept. (if you can be out of it.) I bought our home outright, cars are paid for, colledge education for the girls is set and I am in a position that I will never have to work again. DO NOT get me wrong, I would trade it all in a heartbeat for her back, and I do not like the way it has gone about being done. But this is the path I was put on, my cross is heavy, but I am being carried.

    I get calls, text's, and cards asking how I am doing. The time is no longer an hour by hour process, not even day by day anymore. It is a few days at a time, I get pissed at times especially at Michele and for putting my in this spot. And believe you me I let her know about it. I also get upest at the Lord for what has happened, I straight up let Him know how I feel. But with all of this the "peace" is still here and in my heart.

    I just want to let you all know that I think of you all often and speak highly of you all and TW. I am doing good, and I pray that soon I will be back in the swing of things as before, but will be a little different.
    If any of you are planning a road trip through this area let me know. Steak and taters are on me.

    Best to you ALL,
    Bill

    glad to hear you are slowly, but surely, getting you and your girls' lives back on the right road. i understand how you can question the Lord's actions and be angry. but keep up the faith, as the old saying goes, "God has a plan for us all, and everything that happens is done for a reason". that saying can get repetitive but keep staying strong. keep us updated!

    God bless you and your family!

    Good to hear an update, Bill. I love when you talk about telling God exactly how you feel, because even though He knows every thought we have, He still wants open communication in any situation. Stay strong!

    Its good to hear your doing good for yourself Bill, just wish the Lord didnt hand it to you in this way. I was never much of a spiritual fella, but since you came to TW with your situation, I have taken another look on life. You are truly an inspiration to me, and I thank you sir. May God bless you in your road to recovery.

    Bill, Thanks for continuing to share with us, your honesty is appreciated. Glad to hear you are getting managing well and the girls are also doing well. I hope you will be able to start working on the truck more and join us on the forum more often again soon. Still sending thoughts your way.
    I'd love me some steak and taters!

    You always have my number buddy. I'm there for you anytime you need me.

    I think with the steps you have taken, it is now time for me to take the step to change my avatar pic and sig. Michele's influence on my life will continue on forever.

    God bless you and your family my friend.
