Yep, it's that time of year again. This year has brought forth a few major changes in my life, some good and some not so much, but all are appreciated. I've been very lucky in life. Maybe not in terms of fame and fortune, but enough for me. I'm known by the people I care to be known by, I have enough money to pay the bills and still have the scratch to belly up to a bar for when I get the itch. I'm thankful for the relationships and friendships I've been fortunate to be a part of and the ones I continue to be in. I have a great support network in my life between my friends and family. I come from a "broken" home, but both of sets of parents never let me feel that way. I hope that I can do the same for my daughter.
I'm eternally thankful to the good Lord for allowing me to be born an American. I'm proud of my service and chance to step up for our country. Not excluding our foreign friends of course, but this is my country and I'm a bit biased. We've got it pretty good here despite what Facebook memes and cable news would like you to think. I feel grateful for everyday above the dirt .
We love to have fun and bust each other's balls at the shop, but honestly I'm happy to be a part of T.M. Hunt Custom Knives wherever it takes us. It's been a great learning experience. A lot of new friends have been made along the way. I can't imagine never being a part of this gig, I don't want to imagine that. Todd has seen me on some of my best days and some of my worst. I truly appreciate his friendship and mentoring, not just in knife making but also in life. We had a pretty memorable alcohol fueled conversation in the shop when I was still coming to terms with fatherhood before my daughter was born. I think of the points made that night often.
Well folks, enjoy your family time today. Hopefully you stocked up ahead of time on alcohol. Be thankful for what you have and remember it could always be worse. Thanks for reading and following along .
