Really weird dreams last night. Dreamt about a former business associate giving me a dire warning. And 3 ghosts each showing me different moments of my life. The last one was the scariest...my future. I had given all my assets away being overly charitable to undeserving wretches and forgiving people who owed me money. It was a wake up call. From now on I'm gonna pinch my pennies, horde wealth, and pursue my accounts without mercy.

Merry Christmas.

Just found out the neighbor on the next hill moved. New neighbor shooting guns this afternoon. No big deal. Very common out here in the sticks. What is unusual is the huge explosions. 2 of them. 1st one scared the snot out of us. It was tannerite.

FYI: if you have never had food poisoning, 100% do not recommend. Use it as an excuse to get out of work, but never actually get it. Worst three days of my life, and I watched the playoff game.

Hey! I hope all of you have had a great Christmas and that you will continue to have a wonderful Holiday season. I unfortunately haven’t been quite as fortunate this year, we lost my big brother to a brain tumor on the 23rd. He put up a fierce fight before he left us though, we’ve spent the last 3 weeks at the UT Medical Center NeuroCritical Care Unit in Knoxville and at Holston Valley Hospital in Kingsport where he received wonderful care at both and we are so appreciative of that. It was a shocking diagnosis to us all, as just a month ago he was basically fine so he and us thought. It’s been a hard lick to take around here and I’ll miss him greatly. I haven’t had time for much of anything lately I have however been wondering how everyone in the VN PF was doing. I’ll try and get caught up with the current events in here as soon as get things settled around here. I hope everyone has a great new year.

GO VOLS!!!

Condolences for the loss of your big brother. Prayers of comforting for your whole family Joey. I've lost a big brother to addiction and a father to cancer. I don't pretend to know your grief but I can relate.

Please reach out if you need. It's ok to cry, be angry, be sad, and even be happy. No one can tell you how, or how long, to grieve. It is very important you do it in a healthful way and do it as long as needed.

Take extra good care of yourself and your loved ones, my friend.

Thanks my friend, I really appreciate that! I lost Mom 3 and half years ago to leukemia and heart failure and now my older brother to an unbelievably aggressive cancerous brain tumor that we didn’t even know he had until 3 weeks ago, so it’s been really rough. He was my big brother and always had my back when I needed him to, he was 3 years older than me and my protector when we were kids and he’s been my helper with Dad and his dementia as adults and it will be difficult here without him. He was a good one and had a work ethic second to none, the world lost a great guy and devoted VOL fan and he’ll be missed. A lot of things are going to have to be adjusted here in his absence. That is life though and I’ll figure it out as I go. I will be fine eventually, but really appreciate the encouragement. Be well!
