Attitude

Its been fun answering honestly whenever someone asks me “how are you?” I stopped by Garner’s world-famous Agri-Supply to get parts for the damaged trailer and that question was inevitably asked.

“Look at him,” one good ol’ boy shop worker called to the other. “The kind of week he’s had and he’s still smiling.”

After his buddy picked his jaw up off the floor, the first turned to me again.

“I can tell you gonna be okay,” he said. “If that don’t faze you, nothin’ will!”

True enough. Its been a wonderfully fun day. I spent the evening wrestling two gleeful, giggling kids.

The van? Its just a thing. The job? I’ll find another. The love of my family and friends? That’s what its all about.
