'Again'? So many questions... When did first start to worry about me? Why did you stop worrying about me? What did I do to stop you worrying about me?

Brings to mind that old story about a retiring airline pilot on his last flight. He announced to the passengers "just sit back and relax, there is no since in both of us worrying about this flight".

I've read something along the lines of there is no point trying to be happy despite what all the feel-good youtubers and modern day gurus tell you. It is only in retrospect that one can say that was a good time of my life.

I just had't appreciated that you had a '10% rule..'. So cultured and controlled, but I have a stong feeling that the 10% creeps up to 110% when dealing with the local grocery shop honeys..

How's your reversing going? Still managing to go backwards without deviation?

I'm happy right now. I'm happy about being happy. I feel blessed for the gift of my and my family's happiness. Just let me finish my daughter's engine before I keel over. A couple more weeks should do it.

Yep, the grocery store honeys are exempt from the 10% rule -

Reversing? So far so good. I try not to park where I have to back out. Except when backing out of my garage onto the street - then I just lay on my horn and gun it - that reduces the exposure time -
