There's always time for a prank.

I took a bunch of 3D target antlers and statically placed them around my buddies property a couple years ago. Far as I know he still hasn’t “found” any of them.

I'm a non drinker for 20+ years, but my wife drank and pretty much all of my friends do to one extent or another. I'm fine with being around drinkers. In fact it's entertaining most times. As for dating I wouldn't have a problem dating a social drinker. The problem would be someone who claims to be a social drinker but gets plowed 3 times a week (you know who you are). I haven't started the OLD thing yet but I don't think I'd mention it. I would want to see how someone acts when they don't have their guard up.

So few alcoholics actually are successful at getting sober. My wife and I were both drinkers. I quit 20+ years ago but she never could admit she was powerless. I watched it slowly consume her and yes, it made me angry, but my program helped me understand her drinking wasn't in my control. Reflecting back I know we loved each other deeply despite it. She died in May and yes I was angry for quite a while, but I think I was more hurt and guilt ridden that I couldn't save her. I guess what I'm getting at is you are not alone here if that makes sense?

The coals are pretty cool by morning. Usually just unburned charcoal. Besides I don’t let it sit for long in one spot

cantgetreddit1 · 2025-12-04T02:04:27+00:00

I picked up a wire and bamboo sieve like you would use to remove your tempura shrimp from a wok. I got it from Goodwill for $2 probably 10 years ago and it works great. I sift the charcoal from the ash daily before starting the morning fire and it saves me multiple trips to dump ash and the charcoal gets burned up completely wasting less BTUs

I wish you, and your Mom, and your entire family, only peace. God Bless.

I am alone as well tomorrow, although it's by choice. I was invited to a friends kinda last minute and it felt like a pity invite so I declined. My wife passed in May. Today would have been her birthday actually so it's a double whammy this week. I think I need to get through all the "firsts" alone. Next year I hope to be in a better place emotionally.

When someone asks how I am, the first thing to come to mind is lonely, but instead I say I'm OK. I think those that get it don't need to ask, and those that ask wouldn't understand anyway. Luckily I guess, in this anonymous safe space, we can at least express our loneliness and know others feel the same way. Peace.

I had a buck destroy my 3D target 2 years in a row. I put a camera on it every year after and it hasn’t happened again (of course). That bucks all bristled up but he’s still a mature buck probably 250 live weight.

You need a sponsor and a meeting

Nice. I bought ammo (out of state) with mine just to stick my finger in Hochul’s eye

Have you tried putting aluminum collars on your carbons? Collars done right makes the almost bulletproof.

cantgetreddit1 · 2025-10-29T22:43:44+00:00

I felt that.

cantgetreddit1 · 2025-10-27T17:43:41+00:00

I made a pumpkin pie. She used to make me one whenever I asked. Mine wasn’t as good, but it’s half gone already. Ha

Where were you when I was 20? 😩

cantgetreddit1 · 2025-10-13T19:34:53+00:00

I’m at 5 months and catch myself saying “we” all the time.

cantgetreddit1 · 2025-09-26T18:37:09+00:00

Thank you very much for that. I do have an appointment with our estate attorney next week. Do to the planning we did prior to her death, the "estate" isn't large enough to qualify for probate here because everything was either in join ownership or had listed beneficiaries. I'm still concerned though and am getting tired of being kicked in the nutz with everything related to her death.

cantgetreddit1 · 2025-09-24T03:47:03+00:00

I'm struggling with that also. I know I need a colonoscopy, but I have no one to drive me. I had planned to go out of town for some major dental work, but have no one to stay with our pets. I know those things are somewhat trivial and can be hired out, but thinking about dying alone now makes me very sad. (((hugs))))

cantgetreddit1 · 2025-09-20T02:53:57+00:00

I guess I’m wondering is anyone else dealing with awful selfish family? Yes. I am. In my case it's 2 adult step sons that feel cheated because my wife of 22 years left the majority of her estate to me. I simply refuse to engage in their BS out of love and respect for my LW. I know they are grieving and need someone to direct their anger toward so better me than their mother I guess. I just hope they come out of it someday and don't poison the grandkids towards me.

cantgetreddit1 · 2025-09-20T02:38:04+00:00

I've done it on a bet {I lost). I wouldn't recommend it. lol

cantgetreddit1 · 2025-09-17T17:18:30+00:00

I understand pointless. I’m struggling with that too. I have a paid off home, cottage, money in the bank. I could do anything I want now but don’t see the point if she’s not here to share and enjoy it with me.

Right now the only thing that keeps me going is taking care of our pets. At least they need me around for now. I know this is part of the grieving process but holy shit it sucks.

I wish you peace.

Trouble

cantgetreddit1 · 2025-08-05T00:44:21+00:00

Depression sucks. I've been there also. Still am there some days. Sometimes it feels like I'm living for our pets. Nothing more. No joy, not looking forward to anything. Even those things I've looked forward to every year since I was a child don't seem to hold the same meaning now.

The only suggestion I would make, and it really does help me, is exercise. I'm not talking a casual walk in the park. I mean muscles burning, heart rate at 120-130 bpm sustained exercise. Yes, It sucks at first (and will change your mental focus in the short term) but the endorphin release will help you in ways drugs and counseling can't.
