    sanity is back

     



    Hi all, just thought i would drop a line and fill you in on the latest drama. They finally arrested the daughter after her 7 month run from justice. I tried to do a backflip but at age 46 my feet hardly left the ground, so I just did the wrigleys gum commercial heel kick instead. We still have no grandkids and she has forged the fathers signiature to give custody to someone else, and gotten away with it. Of coarse CPS couldnt care less and are refusing to work with us. Weve had 3 infant and child deaths in our area this year alone, thats in 2 months. I now see why its possible with the lack of care they put into thier jobs.

    Our grandkids now have ruined credit at ages 6 and 8. shes used thier social security numbers for several cell phones, several electric and cable bills, and several maxed out credit cards. the creditors dont care they just want thier money. Its funny how this world got this FXXXXD up. Crooked lawyers and loopholes, yah but what can you do? We have at this point thrown our hands up in defeat and just pray we dont read about them in the paper. We are done argueing with morons, salking, crying and wining and now life just goes on. Plus we have a super 13 year old son to raise and spoil still.

    The mustang is prepped and ready for summer and The fuel harley project is going strong now and consuming alot of my time, Ive had it in my garage for a few weeks now building a starter cart and a prop stand. tightening every bolt and aligning the rear wheel in the chassis right now. it should be ready in a few days to try and fire up. Other than that life goes back to normal and I will be checking in from time to time relaxing and passing time with the best hot rod group on the net ! her are a few pics of the bike, wife, kid, garage.

    It's really good to hear from you!

    A lot of us have been wondering how your situation is shaking out. Our grandkids kids are five and seventeen months, and I can only imagine where I would be if I were put in your shoes ..... most likely in a mental hospital with a bunch of psychiatrists trying to get me tuned in again.

    Raising daughters can definitely be a challenge, can't it? There were times when we would have sold ours CHEAP, but somehow (she's 30 now) she has developed into a fine lady as well as a great friend. We're very blessed in that regard and I wish the same for you.

    On a lighter note, THAT'S ONE SERIOUS LOOKIN' TWO WHEELER!

    Keep us advised,

    Jim

    Mooneye, great to have you back. Bitching bike. Try not to let the frustrations get you down. CPS are very different from state to state. Here not of that crap would be happening or at least continue to be happening. If you don't get any help at the local level take it higher, take ti to the top if you have to. They love to hear from their constituents especially the ones bitching about the lousy work of their employees. Only cost you the price of a stamp. I get constituent mail sent to me from our Governor's office form time to time. They want answers, good answers, not just a bunch of weasel wording.

    I can only hope that things get better for you. But the fact that you have stopped in here ia a good sign.

    A good friend will come and bail you out of jail....but a true friend will be sitting next to you saying..."Damn....that was fun!

    Glad to see that you have somewhat come to terms with what you can and can't fix in your Daughter's situation.
