Further to my wallowing...

Today is Tam's VFTP 10 year mark. She doesn't take comments anymore, so no congrats sent, but there is some benchmark overlap to note...

8/28/05? That was my birfday 51! Katrina/Labor Day weekend too; moved my son up to Cherokee County Ga. then, what very surreal shit that was. Soon after, wifey and I bought a mountain place a little north of there. And soon after that we semi-retired there and while front-porch sittin' I started to dabble at the blog thing too, thanks largely to Xavier, Kevin, and Tam... she was my first commenter. She's the only one still bloggin' away...the others bailed and so did I in '09 after moving back to Fla (wifey couldn't take being so far from the grandbabies in Tampa); I had said what little I needed to and after son moved back too we started a new biz for him that needed much of my time.

So happy blogversary to Tam; all else aside, that girl can turn a phrase as well as anyone I've ever seen.. Not so much happy for me; this is birfday 61, ugh, and I thought I was old back then.
