Yep, so I think I did a pretty good job at saving this ones life.

It's where I'm from.
On a three hour flight from Memphis
I was silently celebrating my first class upgrade.
Laughing at my jeans and my boots,
Beside those high dollar shoes and Armani suits.
When the gentleman next to me said the drinks up here are free…
So if you'd like, the first one can be on me!
He said I’m headin’ back from business inNew York and Rome
Tell me love, Where do you call home?
I said I'm from the front pew of a wooden white church.
The courthouse clock - it still don’t work.
Where a man's word means everything.
Where moms and dads were high school flings,
Gave their children grandmothers maiden name.
Yes, it may not sound like much,
But its where I'm from.
So we drank that round and then another,
There wasn't a topic in this world we did not cover.
He said “I headed out west when I was barely 19,
Just a kid chasing my dreams.”
I said “I'm flying out here to pick up my little brother
He's been fighting the cancer they discovered,
But he called last night and said ‘I think this is the end,
So come take me home to my family and my friends.
Where the quarterback dates the homecoming queen,
The truck's are Ford and the tractor's green,
And Amazing Grace is what we sing.
Where there's a county fair - every Fall.
And your friends are there no matter when you call”.’
And as we stood to claim the bags we checked,
He said “I'll pray for your brother and did I mention that
Italian suits haven't always been my style…
See I was quarterback of my high school team
We took state back in '63
And my wife, she's still my homecoming queen.

One whole month.
Wow.
Can't believe it has been a whole month since I've made a post.
I really need to get on here and upload my latest purchases and creations.
Not much news though really.
Mitchell & I had our engagement party -- got rained on too!
It didn't dampen the spirits, thank goodness, because whisky is never the same watered down!
Hooroo.
