Been awhile *might bored you readin it*
 

*I just thought I share this w/ one of the best forum ever*
I know it's been awhile since I posted. It's been crazy busy and very challenging for the past few months.
-Got into mortgage mess, I won't go thru the details but you have an idea of what's going on in real state market.
-Trying to save the house but it's just too much too handle and in the process, I almost lost what is really important, my wife of 19yrs and 3 kids (20,17&9) and part of it is my fault..i think i fall asleep everytime my parents lectured me on how to handle finances. gosh to be honest, I could handle multiple complex project @ work, last minute meetings, employees attitude and reviews, teenager crisis but can't balance my finances :o
-Fell off the train...been sober and smoke free for the past 11 yrs. and one day I decide to spend the weekend @ Tahoe w/ wifey, went to Cabo Wabo Cantina and get to hang out with Aaron Hagar and the band, on the stage and off the stage. 2 bottle of tequila later in the hotel room, one too many shots in Cantina and here's what happen:
Party on Garth!

-Health falling apart, went to emergency room 3 times due to my gall bladder and they will finally remove it next week *hellooo cheeseburger and fries :D :D :D

*lesson learned: always look on the bright side*

But the best part of it all is, I'm back to my senses, I survived (it could be worse), still got the family next to me and she got me these:

Gadl to hear from you. Best of luck and take care of the Box, best paint I have ever seen on a Box.

Sweet ride.

Unklekraker, always good to hear from you! Happy Father's Day. :)

Hey U-

Good to hear that you're back on track!

Happy Father's Day +1 :cheers:

BTW, I tried the Griots stuff just yesterday and it worked really well!! Enjoy!!

Happy Fathers Day too, guys! Yah, can't wait to get the Griots next week and start detailing the car while recovering :D :D :D

It's a big relief to get back on track...we bought the house as a way of securing the kids but then we realize that it's taking our weekends and family time away coz' I'm always broke :D

but yah, this made my marriage a lot stronger than it was before and made our family a lot closer together :)

Can't wait to start posting again...

Welcome back man,
Take care of yourself, the family and the box.

We are always here for you.

Welcome Back!!!!

Yo Gerry,what's up dude?

Glad to hear your doing all right. You look like the happiest guy ever in those pics.

Take care!
