Broke Down 69...The Adventure Continues

Everyone has the way they will deal with things.
Nothing wrong with accepting some help. From friends or family and even professionals. Sometimes, that third party who is disconnected from the people involved can be worth the effort. Its all about perspective

Right now, a few days away from the office may be a good thing. Use the time to your advantage.

 

Very well said. I'm one to "step away from the box" myself. Not just OUT of the box, but away.

 

Many blessings, bro. You'll be with us in thought and prayers, for sure. Speaking for most if not all of us, I'm sure.

Here at the house tonight, the wife and I are watching a show. On comes a commercial for an updated product.
Brita, the water filter pitcher company has a new pitcher called stream.

This would be the "Brita stream"

First thing I said was sounds like a strippers name.

Think about it, now in your best annoucer voice say

And now Britaaaaaaaa Streeeemmmmm

 

Sounds like a bidet, to me.... LoL~!

 

Just thinking 'boutcha today, man. Thoughts and prayers.

Actually you can talk about it...........you just did.

 

This is an awkward time for your friends and acquaintances. They ARE well meaning, and they DON'T know what to say. They know how badly you are hurting, and they want to do something to alleviate your suffering.
People are just not comfortable being in the presence of tremendous grief. So where a simple "condolences," or "I'm sorry," will actually do better, they grope around for something to say.

This is something that we all have to do, at one time or another. It brings the following to my mind:
You gotta walk that lonesome valley,
You gotta walk it by yourself,
Nobody here can walk it for you,
You gotta walk it by yourself.

OK, from what I've seen in your posts, I believe you are right. It is probably exactly what you need right now.

I fully understand what you are saying. I would bet that you would never open up in person, or on the telephone, like you have here. I believe that this is good for you. You know you are among people who care here.
Something that I've done many times over the years, is to sit down and put down my problems in writing. It helps to have someone in particular that you are going to send it to. But you don't send it.
I've written probably hundreds of letters and emails to my kids, that never leave the computer. It just helps to direct it to someone. At least for me.
