Alcohol Kills

 Stopped drinking on January 11, 2023

miss it from 5 to 7 pm

feel better every day

2 small slip ups in 30 days  (sip - ups)

will keep it going

life with wife is much better

Thanks be to ....God?  or  me?

The Committee - 38 Special

 

The Northcutt Dilemna

The column was leaning

no support for the post

The decking had crumbled

no joy for the host.


One neighbor was needed

Three more joined the fray

Everyone qualified

To save Northcutt’s day.


Tom had his tools

No opinon he shared

The others had plenty

Clear that they cared.


An engineer, an accountant,

A DIY’er came too

His Hard Hat was awesome

But Tom was all through.


A sawzall, a hammer

Eric’s jack and some screws

Raised spirits and porch

We had 38 Special NEWS.


The moral is clear

when you need a hand

call anyone on 38th street

The response will be grand!
