Heaven and the Saints preserve us. It would be like inviting vikings to a cookout.

That’s a bet I’d make.

You’d both lose.
Sorry

The more I complain the more I find things to complain about.

The more grateful I am the more I have to be grateful for.

It’s really not rocket science.

The more rockets I build, the better rocket scientist I become.

This describes my mother…for crying out loud, she complained about a Santa Claus parade blocking her access to a road…even though she didn’t have anywhere to go.

If I’m driving down the road and doing nothing but looking in my rear view mirror I’m going to crash into a fucking tree.

Or run someone over.

Or start driving backwards?

But you might see some kid pop a sick wheelie on his BMX in the rear view… y’know, before you crash into that tree or run someone over

I went into Home Depot the other day and went to the tools section. There were tons of fancy, expensive tools everywhere. I looked for a bit then bought the most expensive tool I could find. I took my new treasure home and took it out of the box. I was so excited to use it. Then it dawned on me that I didn’t have the slightest idea of how to turn it on, much less use it.

All the tools in the world don’t mean shit unless someone shows you how to use them.

Love this Derek…

Reminds me of a share from the other night…

This guy was talking about the day his daughter brought his new born grandson over to visit for the first time. The baby had fallen asleep on the drive over and was asleep in the car seat, needed to be woke to feed. So the mother gently woke the baby, the baby cried, she unbuckled it, carefully picked it up, then gently carried it somewhere safe to feed it. The whole while this man watched in awe at the time he had about 3 years clean and it was an “Ah-ha” moment for him… “That’s what we do for each other” he said…" we don’t wake the addict up and fucking leave him there to figure shit out on his own… we don’t throw a Big Book at him and expect him to understand it… we walk with him…" Was an awesome share.

(Was a CA meeting they use Big Book)

Had a birthday party for Liam today and invited some friends who are normies. I told her that it was byob because obviously I wasn’t going to have any.

She responded with “who the fuck drinks at a 2 year olds birthday party?!”

I used to all time.

Haha… yes my daughter is now 19 years old. I drank at every single birthday party she had up until 16 years old.

My son is 7. We serve alcohol at his parties. Most of the parents decline. So I guess I was “that guy”

Yup, sounds about right, I would have been bleezing 100%. Your friend would have seemed weird and scary to me.

Happy bday Liam! :balloon:
