my grandfather died last week
then my wife threw me out
we've got three kids together
after 8 years of marriage, she says "i don't want the responsibilities of being a wife anymore"
the marriage over. i spent a week devastated
it's been three weeks now..

i could write a song about it, so what?

i'll be too busy dusting myself off, and writing the next
KICK ASS chapter in my life.

y'all better stand back, because this crow's been down TOO LONG.

FUCK THE BLUES.

I'm about to ROCK.!!!!

Rough times can lead to solid footing - I'm sure you can pull it through. I'm also convinced that second wives are often a better deal (personal experience on this one).
Oh that just sucks...big time! Hang in there, it'll all turn out better for ya in the end. Be looking for you in PA. And, contrary to Jon, third time was the charm for me but hey, don't use me as an example :)
Third time! Now that's optimism! :)

Rock On brother!!!
I feel your pain brother. Last year I got laid off after 13 years with the company. I couldn't find work, and ended up losing the house to foreclosure and getting nothing out of it. Had to move to Virginia to find a job, so now, when I should be thinking about retiring, I am thinking about having to start all over again from scratch after losing everything I worked my entire life for.

But, while I was sitting around being unemployed, I learned how to make cigar box guitars, so at least something good came out of it.
Crow. I know it is hard to do, but keep your head up. I am in a BIG rut right now myself (won`t go into details). Keep yourself busy, and everything will be on the upswing before you know it. These cbgs are what have kept my head on straight. I thank God for it. Keep going and don`t give up.
