Curating Your Butt4 (to Nashville)


 So you can consider yourself curated to Nashville. 
I've come across these bloggers from Nashville (there's a scene there, who knew?) in the past two weeks worthy of a mention:

First came @joey_strawn. Just some great stuff that is spot on, written in a style I find extremely pleasant to deal with. He is doing SO MUCH right- it's a pleasure to watch and read. Check out one of my favorite posts of his here.

The Bonnie to his interwebs Clyde is @lauraclick. Both are from Nashville, which makes me regret not getting to know the place better that one time I visited in the 90s.

New Life

  It's weird, sad and slightly freeing. I've been headed towards a completely different life for a lot longer than I even knew. It took me a while to catch up to realize it was happening.  Thankfully, I was cognizant enough to see it finally and mostly ready for it. It's amazing when you have the rug completely pulled out from underneath you. The adjustments are jarring.  I made mistakes, but like most I learned from them, adapted, and tried my best to do better. The reason you see that truck next to a storage place? That's the sum of my life right now.  Never take for granted that you will work hard for something or someone, and it will end up meaning very little. You are guaranteed nothing, owed nothing, promised nothing. Anything and everything can be taken away in a heartbeat.  I wrote this to my kids a while back: I tried to be the best father I could be based on what I knew when I knew it and how I could.
