Dear Dad, I miss you....

It's been almost a month to the day and I haven't blogged. I've had a few ideas for stories, but to tell you the truth I just have not been feeling very sexy this month, so the stories have not got from mind to computer. A combination of overwork, medications and the blahs. So, my apologies to you, dear readers, for failing to titillate. Luckily, the blogosphere is rampant with other writers eager to excite you!

If my computer gives me trouble, I shoot an email to my local Mac user group listserv and lots of suggestions come back in minutes of things to try, and one of them is usually dead on. But for life issues, I am not sure where to turn, so I've been seeking some professional help which hopefully will resolve these issues. But it takes time.

I sure miss my Dad who passed on ten years ago, he could always be relied on for sage advice in matters of life. Wish you were here today, Dad....

Hey babe. Hope you feel better after penning your thoughts down...

BTW, I love that profile pic.

I love my dad, too. And I'm lucky to still have him. He's kind and loving and always gives me good advice (that I used to ignore when I was a teen, of course). Now his opinions are gold.

BTW, I heard a social worker once say something like this: "Girls may need fathers more than mothers. Excluding abusive, addicted, or otherwise bad fathers, I've never run into a problem girl who was being raised by her dad as a single parent. Girls raised by their mothers as a single parent tend to get into much more of the worst kind of trouble."

You'll find frequent loving references to my dad (a jazz musician) in my posts.

Vahri, I just stopped in to see what you were doing. I hope you are well.

I understand fully about the devastating effect of the loss of a parent. They really can't be replaced. I hope you find other things to focus on and reduce the sting.
