I dunno

Trying to learn this song that I like alot.  It's hard. Alot of difficult chord sequences but it's a beautiful song.  I can hold a pick ok but sometimes lose my grip and it falls and I have to bend over and pick it up.
Cloudy overcast day today. Looks like rain. Rainy days and mondays always get me down, like the song. Depressing. When the weather's depressing I begin to think of depressing things. My mind wanders back to the days when I worked two jobs, just to make ends meet. We were living way above our means so I was working from 1 am in the morning untill 6 pm at nite to try and dig us out of a financial hole in the ground.
I couldn't do it alone, and 15 years of that made me turn to drugs and alcohol but those didn't help either and nearly took my life in one way or another.  I reached a point when I asked God to just take me cause I have had it with this thing called life.  It sucks and then we die anyway.
Today with the overcast sky, I almost feel like that again, but it will pass.  It always does. Just feelings of loneliness, thats all.  
My exwife shares her bed with someone else now, and I go to sleep alone, by myself, and since my ex got the house, I am sleeping in someone else's house for the first time in 24 years.
I have my dog....my best friend....it will all work out.
Hope you all have a good day!

You\'ll be OK Bob. The weather doesn\'t help, but the move set some triggers. Keep on playing that music - but make it upbeat because the slow stuff will make you cry.

The weather sure doesn\'t help when we already feel down. You\'ll find your one and only when it\'s time. I pray everyday for you that it will happen soon. Dogs are awesome to have around when we aren\'t feeling so hot, so just love on her! Love you Bob.

The \"ex\" got the house....now, we both know that shouldn\'t have happened but, you know what? She\'s trapped with that loser of a BF now.

You did what you did - we all have. This is now. \"Should\" is a word that doesn\'t belong in our vocabulary. You\'re FREE. It won\'t always be this bad, it will get better and you will have a place of your own, no matter if it is a small apartment somewhere. No one needs a palace, just more to clean. :o/ You\'re on the right path. Keep going.
