  1. Since the wife had our son, she is excited to get back into walking and exercise. Me too. We both can't wait to get back to our "before pregnancy" weight. One of the many nice things about the new house is its about 1/4 mile from the Ohio and Erie canal tow path. My oldest son and I have logged hundreds of miles on it. It'll be real nice to just hop on the bike and ride to it instead of packing the bikes up to go there.

     

    I too am a firm believer in therapy and professional counseling. My wife lost a sister to non Hodgkin's lymphoma in 2004. She started seeing a counselor then that we still talk to today. I believe that this woman has made it possible for me to see things in so many different ways. I'm a better husband and boss because of it.

     

    Getting a "pod" is exactly what I'm going to do. Some of the small things were packing up and putting in my two brothers basements then all the bigger furniture will go I the pod to be stored till we need it. It's a little expensive, but only packing and unpacking once makes it worth every penny.

  2. My thoughts are with you And your family Cliff. We've never met but in the 3 years I've been a member of this community, your posts and comments have always been of great inspiration. you are like the OFC mayor. I believe that you really do care about everyone on these forums. And for that, I send my prayers to you and your family.

     

    GODSPEED Cliff!

  3. You want to talk stress...I can think of more than a few here that wish they had your problems....just wait till your wife finds another and walks out and you lose the job you've had for over 30 years and a child has to all of a sudden battle a serious illness that is threatening their life....and of course I hope none of the above happens to you.

     

    Many here have experienced and are experiencing worse than me and certainly your issues.

     

    Pass the bottle!

     

    Indeed I'd take 10 times what I have over some of the problems that fellow community members face. Some of the strongest people that I've ever heard of are members of this community. I truly don't know how those people cope. But they do. And that is inspirational in its self.

     

    I am truly appreciative of everyone's comments. Thank you everyone. I may not contribute much to these forums, but hardly a day goes by that I don't check them. I'm a proud American, but a part of my heart is Canadian thanks to all of you.

     

    May OFC live forever!

  4. Here I sit, thanks to a good gin buzz, contemplating. What have I gotten myself into?!?

    My wife gave birth to a healthy boy on 2/10 and we are in the midst of packing up our little house to move. We have to be out by 3/6 and we won't close on the new house till 3/20. SO in the mean time, I hav to put everything in storage and live with my mother in law. Don't get me wrong, I love my mother in law, but I want to love her in the future. My wife is sure she will be butting heads with her.

    In the mean time, Back in September, I started my own little machine shop in my garage. Just a lathe and a drill press and some small machines. Nothing big BUT my 1 1/2 month "break" is not making my customers happy. I could set my stuff up in my brother or dads garage but why? I'll be back at it when I get moved in on April 1st. It's a side job. My day job pays the bills so I don't really need it. It's just extra.

    Then there's my teenager........ This fine young man can't talk without attitude. So when we ask him to give us a hand with packing, it's like we asked him to smash his xbox for us.

    ........ I'm doing the best I can to take it one day at a time but every once in a while I just want to lose my mind........

    I haven't even gotten out on the ice yet!!!!!!!!

     

    Take a deep breath and think forward to when it's over.....

     

    How do you guys legally deal with stress?
