This afternoon Ive been packing the truck for my next Fort Knox trip. Since its gonna rain tomorrow I figured Id need some extra towels in the truck, and I knew I had some in my truck tool box. Anyway, I pulled out a clean, folded hand towel and smelled it just to make sure it was clean. It was clean... and it smelled just like my mamas house used to smell. Mom passed away back in March, and I reckon I put this towel in my truck soon after she passed away. So now Im just sitting here on my truck tool box, thinking about my mom as I type this thread. Fellas, this 46 year old man sure misses his mama. But shes definitely in a better place now, and I wouldnt wish her back here for anything. Too much arthritis pain, and that damned cancer. I can only imagine the sights, sounds, and wonders she has experienced in the time shes been in Heaven. Im looking forward to that day myself sometime in the future. I thank God that Jesus died on that cross for me, my mama, and all of us. Yall wish me luck this weekend on Knox. Hope all of yall that can go tomorrow slay a giant.
Jesus... I hope you know Him personally like I do.
Si vis pacem, para bellum.

Whatever suits you just tickles me plum to death.
Can I refill your eggnog for you? Get you something to eat? Drive you out to the middle of nowhere and leave you for dead?

I actually just hung up the phone from talking with my mom before I saw this post. I always say a true southern man is always going to be a mamma's boy and that's meant as a compliment. I always tell my boys that no matter what happens in life to make sure they take care of their mamma.

I feel for you, man. Glad you had the years with her that you did.

My mama will be 70 next year. I had lunch with her and my aunt today and it was terrific. Im guilty of getting busy and not seeing my mama as much as I should, even though she lives just across the road. She said Remember when we used to have lunch together every Friday? I said That is starting again. That happening and your post are as clear a sign as Ive ever had: See my mama more. Thank you, Claims. My wife lost her mother in May. Shes told me several times: the holidays are going to be tough. God bless you and all who are still reeling from grief this season. Knock one out In Kentucky, brother.
