Good evening John! Beautiful torch, hell fire?

Thanks man! Kevin, this torch has been called everything in the world. I bought it as "Brainfreeze ", then when I questioned them about the coloration, they said they sent the wrong torch. I loved it more than the one I originally ordered, so here we are. I would agree to maybe hellfire on this one.

It’s very nice and looks very similar to mine. I don’t know what you originally ordered but I hope it was an upgrade!

Okay, my wife is staying with my daughter tonight and over the weekend. My boys are going on the bachelor golf excursion in northern Michigan. Once again a Kevin is home alone. Another toga party?

The white worms made it to my local distribution center. They should come tomorrow. Let's hope USPS does their job!

So yesterday was my day off.
I've got some restaurant things to get ready for mothers day but it was raining.
Anyhow, about a year ago, my wife noticed a medium dog running around the supermarket parking lot so she picked it up and brought it home.
We had it upstairs with my daughter for about a week.
It was hell.
The dog is a sweetheart but my two morkies are more like dottybacks.
Finally someone answered the lost poster for the dog and came and got him.
Needless to say my daughter was heartbroken and they exchanged numbers.
Flash forward to last week and the woman calls needing to re home the dog.
So my daughter has been looking for her own place to keep the dog.
Not so easy to do.
My wife and I decided to rent a b&b for her for 3 days so she could see what dog ownership was all about.
Yesterday was take back day, which was hours north of here off grid.
About a mile from the house the dog jumped up and started barking.
When we let him out, he ran off everywhere, totally excited.
We drove home quietly.
I haven't heard about the dog since, weird since for weeks it was uttered every other word.
I wasn't ready for my daughter to move out yet, well, really I am but this was a good lesson for her.
And me.
And that, John, @kingranch2003 is why I spent 5 hours in the car yesterday.

This is an emotional situation all around. Your daughter is involved, and as a father, I realize that always changes the game. The dog came in and added an extra layer of emotion to it, because they can steal our hearts too. I'm sure having her up there and out of the house was sobering for you all. It probably felt extremely REAL.
I'll share this with you Joel. I guess I'm sharing it with you all.
Tonight, my 8 year old had a little league game. There's another boy on his team and he's a bully. He throws water on the other kids, pushes em around, the whole 9 yards. My son, John is a loving, kind and smart kid. He'd rather be everyone's friend. Well tonight this child decided to hit John boy in the face with a baseball as hard as he could from about 10 feet away, and it hurt him. I was so mad I told my son that he had my permission to knock the other kid on his as$. I'm sure most people would have done the same thing. But I have to be better. I'm disappointed in myself. My son knows that he can defend himself, but I just overreacted here, and shouldn't have.

Stay with me Joel, it's relevant to your situation.
A little while later the kid that hit my son had struck out and was sulking, he had his head down and was probably crying. Until my son came and wrapped his arm around this bully kid that had just hit him and hurt him. I realized right then, this beautiful child is his own person and all I can do is try to steer him the right way. But with that comes the fact that even though l made a mistake tonight, I'd obviously taught him how to show grace and forgiveness in the past.
Your daughter had a rough go with this life experience and you felt it too, because she's your daughter. But you have taught her well, taught her to care. I'm sure she'll do everything right when she's faced with being on her own.
