What a great post and tribute to your dad and the relationship you had with him...Also a nice little piece on who you are as you reveal many things here should a person choose to see.
I like how you've added in your notes to self to punctuate the lesson he taught you, or wisdom you gained. It's open and honest, self-honest, well presented and just feels so damned *nice.
I'm sorry your dad departed, mine has too as you know; it's the way of things though and his leaving creates a little room for you to be you, a reflection of him with a healthy smattering of you!
Thanks for writing it and I'm glad you took me up on my offer to write about someone else if the grandparent things wasn't a thing. Oh, just on that point...Yeah, lessons can also be learned, wisdom gained, from those whom we don't value or respect. Anyway, thank you.
Thank you @galenkp, I'm really touched by what you've said.
I sweating profusely knew you would see.
Thank you, I do. It is the natural order of life in this world, one that I accept.
I couldn't agree more with yet another section you've more or less quoted from my code book. One of these times, we have to compare books. 😉😊
My notebook is written in secret code. Well, not really, it's just that my writing is that bad it's illegible so...It'll need deciphering.
I'm willing to bet that it's all committed to memory and you don't even need to decipher it for that reason.
Mostly yes...But there's still pages to turn...That's part of the charm; one never know what may be on the next.
Of course still pages to turn. I've never written mine down because it evolves and changes. It's a living thing.

Who sang that song? I'm driving so can't googleise it. Used to like that song. ELO?
🤣 ELO seems to be the flavour this week. It's already popped up earlier.
