Right now it hurts but there is always a door that will open. You will move on from this. If you ever want to chat just send a direct message or conversation message or whatever they call it. Be well. Do not feel any remorse. You gave them a hell of a lot more than they ever gave you. They don't deserve you.
Sorry to hear that Jim. When times are tough I’ve learned to try to focus on turning the negative into a positive. Sudden change isn’t easy but it sounds like you have a plan.
I was speaking to my wife about heading out west soon... she's like it's winter... What do you think about going down to SW Florida to help with the clean up for the next few months.
If you are the type where helping those in need would give you a lift, the people of SW FL could use your help for sure. We signed up for “yard cleanup” 6 days after when we could get back and they told us we were #7,100 or so on the list.
Wow. 7100?!
The 4 days in a row I was out all day this past long weekend before going back to work for the first time since the hurricane, I would hear chainsaws all around the neighborhood from 7am till after I stopped around 4:30. It was strangely soothing, I guess knowing we weren’t alone in the recovery. Other people I’ve noticed aren’t cleaning up anything and just leaving trees fallen over in their yards.Wow. 7100?!
Yeah that definitely would give me a lift. I have a few friends in the general area and I like the idea of possibly spending the time helping out.
I have a chainsaw so I assume I can be somewhat useful
Oh man, condolences Jim. Excited for you for the new chapter, but I can empathize with how that feels emotionally. Remember it doesn't make you any less of a man, there's too many forces at work. Looking forward to a new you
No, had a grilled chicken sandwich and two beers by myself lol. Sat even at the counter
Awesome! That was like a Star Ledger Outdoor section fishing report!Tons of whales off of LBI this weekend, I've seen them a lot over the years but it's been absolutely bonkers the last week or so. Tons of bait out there (bunker pods) that they've been chasing up and down the coast. Dolphins all over as well. Wish I had a better camera and not just a phone.
It's amazing the insane amount of life off of the Jersey shore and it's healthier than ever. Bluefish in the surf as well as rainfish, peanut bunker, regular bunker, kingfish, spot, fluke in the surf and back bays and the stripers are showing up soon. I've seen more life out there fishing/surfing these last few years than I can remember, so awesome to see!
Hahah thanks, I know you're mostly a freshwater guy and just an overall outdoorsman/hunter so I really appreciate that. I forgot to mention clamming and blue crabs have been fantastic too! Offshore fishing has been great as well.

Five guys is my youngest son’s favorite fast food. I’m guessing the NYC location accounts for how expensive it was. Tip jars are common in today’s society. For counter service I think a dollar or two on a single order suffices.
Yeah, guess so. Is Five Guys a premium chain compared to McDonalds and Wendys? I mean i got same kind of meal at wendys for half the price on the corner of like 56th and 8 av, and this Five Guys was on 55th between 6th and 5th av, in my book should be in the sameish neighbourhood pricewise.
