Its hard to believe its been six months today already since my dad past away!

I still can't believe it some times that he's gone, it certainly hasn't been easy.

Missing him heaps every day... I have a picture of him hanging on the wall in my 

lounge room, and talk to him every time I go past ... is that nutty???

This will take some getting used too, if I ever can..

Howdyeeeeee Milo, life is what you make it........   Billeeeeeee

No mate that's perfectly alright. You keep talking. You missing him will ease in time, but what's important is that you keep remembering him.

My dad passed some 8 years or more ago now. He was an old rogue, he led Mum a merry dance over the years. He was a product of the war years, he'd have a go at anything, never threw a thing away, and could fix anything with a "bit of fencing wire & electrical tape". He was no business man just an old softy, but he still chased his dreams.

For all his faults, he was my Dad.

I have a picture of him in my "Man Cave". He is standing in his workshop full to the rafters with his "good junk", he's wearing a pair of his old tracky pants, old striped shirt, holey slippers, hand on one hip and a coffee in his other hand. The look he gave me was to say "what are you taking that picture for, you want something to remember me by?" (and that's exactly what he said by the way). It's such an iconic picture of him I will treasure it till the day I die.

Maybe I don't speak to him every day now. But I do say G'day from time to time.

You keep talking to that picture. Remember his good points and forgive him his bad ones.

Thankyou for reminding me what my Dad meant to me.
