Father's Day

I love my dad. I really do, despite the few (okay 58,000,905) issues I have had growing up. Now he's in his 70s and life is getting tough. I called him to wish him a happy Father's Day and this is what he said:
  • I can't see
  • I can't breathe
  • I don't even get enjoyment out of TV anymore
  • The world is going to hell
  • I hate life and hope to die soon
Sigh. Someone kick my ass if I ever become that negative, okay?

Our daughter got my husband a beer holster for Father's Day. He's planning all the places he can use it (meetings of the homebrew club, parties, etc.).

Oh, family. You are a neverending source of trauma amusement.

Yeah, he's no poster child for positive aging, for sure, lol! I am grateful that he's still around, regardless.

I wish he would feel bad for being mean but alas, he's pretty much been like this forever so I don't imagine that he'll change anytime soon. Maybe in the next life ...

BTW, love your new username!
