You ever feel like just taking off?

Just a self pity rant but you ever feel just like taking off and starting a new life somewhere else? New state, some simple job with minimal responsibility. Just spend your weekends fishing or bow hunting or something simple.
Just disappear and meet new people and make new friends or just be a loner and live off the land.

 

Yup - almost every day.
Its amazing how a jerk supervisor can make a great job crappy

 

Afflicted I don't think you are alone in your thoughts. Life can press down pretty hard on a person and sometimes we just want to move away from those stressed and focus on what makes us truly happy.

 

NOPE... I have friends, family and responsibilities here. Get a grip and do it one day at a time, one task at a time, one Amen or I'm sorry at a time..... and suddenly... you're in the right place.

 

Thanks. I truly have a blessed life but I've put people on higher platforms than I should have and sometimes I just feel like I shouldve been a little more self centered in my life but that's really not my nature.

After 18 years of marriage we have no kids so it's really my nephews and nieces that I enjoy.

If you saw my life you'd punch me in the face for *****ing but it's been hard earned and I really felt things would be different now.

You've got to live and learn.

 

Friends more on. Family members die and responsibilities are never ending.

I feel ya and I'll be there but misery loves company and so far your lousy company

 

Afflicted, then I believe you need to make a change. If you and your wife feel up to it, shake it up a bit and go live the life you want.

 

No way.. only Dubs is allowed to do stuff like that. Dude lives his life like a Where's Waldo book!

 

I have felt that way at times ... almost did .... PM sent, Bro...

 

Thanks for the thoughts. Actually I'm living the life I want through the Lord but it's the stuff that got me to truely bend my knee to him that sometimes my weak and prideful flesh just gets fed up with.
It's been a journey for me but I appreciate the help and thoughts. I'm sure I'll be back to my irritating, optimistic self in no time and preaching to you guys about how wonderful life is

 

I feel it on occasion Afflicted. I was looking at jobs in Ireland back in '07 when the opportunity at the resort started to surface. Wow, things could have been different!

 

Now that is the afflicted we all know and love :D

 

But until then, can you believe the price of gas!? And what about this heat? And don't get me going on the government etc etc.

I can't complain but I still do. Thanks for listening.

Maybe I'll feel better if I kill a hog Sunday. Take my frustrations out on a feral hog.

 

I here ya.
Twice I've put my home up for sale to move to Colorado.

 

Never.

 

Yes...

 

Pretty much everyday. Family makes that impossible for me, at the present time.

 

yes i feel that way some time but in time it gose away in a little time it will go away for you

 

Feel that way a lot. As soon as the wife graduates we are selling everything and moving to Colorado. Can't wait for that day.
