By the way….9/15

" by the way…" is always used as a stopgap, a hiccup when there is a mental p===lapse of thought. So by the way, I just can’t believe we are sitting here in front of a monitor reading stuff that amounts to a hill of beans. I could suggest that you read a good book rather than go on with this but then that would put you to sleep, same old same old.

The thought for the day... is time well spent. I just came home from a sad time, a funeral for a father with seven grown adults children and many grandchildren. They were a close family and still are. His passing left a hole in their number and their hearts as well. Their family is similar to ours, a very caring lot that leans on one another. We should all be as fortunate as they.

Half of our little town turned up for the church service showing the high respect he was held in. Put it simply he was a friend to all, moments with him were time well spent.

Bill was a man that you could turn to and come away with some type of an answer as well as a smile. So in the short term there are no light 'by the ways’. Many a time I’ve let things pass without comment but I learned from Bill Ross that it good to be open and by the way, this is too heavy and I’ll lighten up for tomorrow, promise?

Farewell Bill, see you soon.
