    Bests:
    Still alive and kickin'... and IMO doing quite well for a gruppy old HVAC guy of 60...
    Business is still going along, did not have to dip into savings in a soft year...
    Dad lived with me for a couple of years... we got to have some quality time!!!
    The ONLY thing I owe on is a house!

    Worsts:
    Dad died last summer, and the estate was a bear to settle.
    The election... and like Fridge said... enough of that.

    Best;
    1. Waking up every morning healthy.(sore but healthy)
    2. Knowing I still have a job and can support my family.
    3. Knowing my wife loves me unconditionally.(If you knew me you would think something was wrong with her)
    4.Grandsons 1st b-day.(Just seeing his smile in the morning makes it all worth it)

    I don't have any worst. It has been a trying year but others have it much worse I don't have the right to complain.

    Best;
    1. Got very sick last day of a cruise in January- lost 35lbs- have kept the weight off- changed diet and feel much better as a result.
    2. Nothing has killed me yet.
    3. The year was slow, but I've paid the bills and out still owe no debts.
    4. My son got his pilot license, so I get to fly once in a while.
    5. Daughter was able to get grants for college- since she got married a year ago.
    6. Those who voted for Mr "O" are starting to feel his wrath.

    Worst;
    1. Daughter getting a divorce (And I really like the son in law ),- out 6k bucks for the wedding.
    2. Lost faith in Americans due to the presidential election outcome.
    3. Had to turn down a few jobs due to the heat, my age and being busy.
    4. Property taxes went up as well as health insurance.


    All in all- I'm glad to be around- life is not easy sometimes, but it's good to be around to accept the good with the bad.

    Best? Marrying my 3rd wife that I have known for 30+ years this year, My Grandson being born this year, ALL the time spent with family and friends.....

    The worst? Not really sure as we have all seemed to muddle through and call things a victory.... Sandy maybe? I was in it down in the Outter Banks of NC on Hatteras Island and those folks have lost so much and to see them/my friends take another punch kinda sucks.... but there back and kicking.

    Long story short,were all blessed to just be here, be thankful for that !

    I don't want easy. If easy I might be just another notch on her panties.... I want reliable and loyal, and doesn't look like that woman from operation repo...
