Dear Friends and Family . . .

I’ve been receiving email regarding my “heavy crap” that is going on. I’ll answer, but only vaguely.

Something happened last week that has put our current future plans in a state of chaos. The event that happened is not the fault of me, my wife or any of the kids. However, the blame lies solely on the shoulders of one person who is being taken to task for the actions. Hence the sudden profane outburst yesterday.

That’s all I can, or will, really say. However, our household is in a crisis and we’re understandably nervous, frightened and upset over what is going on.

Hopefully it will clear up quickly and won’t affect our plans.

But it may affect those plans and put us in a tailspin that will result in the delay of these plans for months, perhaps even a full year.

We’re not happy right now. In fact, we’re downright pissed off one minute and depressed the next.

My wife, however, is bearing the brunt of everything as this whole situation has caused me to crawl into an emotional ball and shiver for hours on end. She’s an amazing woman and, no matter what happens, I’m thankful for her presence in my life. Without her I don’t think I could accomplish anything.

There is one good thing that has happened this week. My lovely wife secured tickets to see The Wiggles this summer. Gertrude may have a heart attack when she discovers that these beings from the television are real.

For those of you who don’t know, The Wiggles are like The Monkees for the pre-school set. They are former educators who started a children’s musical group and, I must admit, do a damn fine job of writing music that’s singable and not annoying.

Essentially, we’ll be taking Gertrude to see the diaper-set Beatles.
