Kim, the legislative discussion of this thread is very valuable info.
There’s the personal side that can be added too, maybe some will
share. That’s valuable too discussing the… End.
I’ve lived a good life, raised in a good family, got a degree (the
hard way taking more than four years), had good career jobs, lived
on the beach for years when the beach line from Clearwater Beach
down to St. Pete Beach and all the little beach communities
in between were fun. Made a good living, a little ill gotten booty too,
went to a going away party for Steve Lamb (The Smugglers Ghost)
before he went to do 27 months in prison), a beach bar, had boats
(what I miss most of Florida). Came up here and have done well too.
I have been blessed. Now it’s all memories, the good ones and a few
bad ones. Everyone has bad memories, hopefully all the good ones
dwarf the bad ones.
Now, because of my age and my diagnosis I can’t re-live any of it…
nobody can go back. You can reflect… it’s done.
Today is tomorrow. There will be a tomorrow where I will want
to be able to say…”Enough… it’s been a good run. Next.”
