Hugs

I made a comment to one of my posts below after I started thinking back.

Angela Crout made me think of it. It was hugs. For all the drinkin and smokin that went down, the things that really stand out in my memory are the hugs. I've never been so hugged in my life as those years running around at SK .

People need to hug more I think. I hugged more as an insecure, confused teenaged boy than I do now as a relatively secure, focused post teenaged boy. (I'm still not a man yet! I just can't stop watching the cartoons hahaha)
And that is not easy. Teenaged boys are supposed to be avoiding contact but I remember hugging Quentin and Andrew almost as much as Nichole and Angela.

And Chris Collins was a big hugger too. He would throw down on the shoulder hugs without a blink.
Tami knows I miss all my friends, and she told me if I wanted to move back she would understand.
It was very sweet. She really is wonderfull. I would love for her to get to know everyone I know. You would all love her and she would love you guys. It would just happen. I know it.
But .... we are happy where we are. And excited.
The carpeting is done on the house. We have to grout the tile around the tub in the master bathroom and install the dishwasher but after that we are done and ready to move in.
Then I have to finish the outside. Mainly cleaning the gutters and painting the exterior.
And getting rid of all the construction trash lol.

Quentin said they have raised over 6k for Andrew. That is sooo awesome. I was worried with the way things are economically that they might have a hard time, but everyone loved Andrew.
I should have known better.

Well back to the grindy grind!
