It is kind of strange, really. I am normally plenty happy with my life, with slight bumps in time when I go into one of my funks. Music, and strangely, certain smells, can have a major impact on my psyche.
Today on the way to school, I turned on the new Kenny Chesney CD when I realized I had it, and still had not listened to it. Annie and I are usually fairly quiet on the way to school as we each get lost in our own thoughts as we prepare for the day. A song came on that put a lump in my throat. It is not completely accurate for my life, given that I have been blessed with Annie, but it sort of hit home. Well, it hit home if I am close to going into a funk.
I had my chances. I know. Sometimes the "normal" family arrangement would be nice, though.
Back to work...

Wife And Kids - Kenny Chesney
Everybody thinks I've got it all
Nobody really does, do they?
I've got more than I deserve, more than I ever dreamed
But there's always a price you pay
It's been an amazing road
I've been blessed, I know
But at the end of the day I go home alone
I still hope someday I'll have a wife and kids
Smiling faces running to the door when I walk in
Saying "Daddy's home, you were gone too long. What'd you bring me? Swing me. Let me show you what I did"
I still dream about that look on a woman's face
That says I love you through the good, the bad, the sunshine or the rain
Sometimes I wish I had someone to share my life with
Maybe I'll have a wife and kids
Maybe someday....
Maybe I could have a son
Play football in the backyard
Or take my daughter fishin', and when she turns 15 teach her how to drive a car
When I grow old and they've all left home
I want to lay beside my wife and talk about the old times, remember all the good times.
I still hope someday I'll have a wife and kids
Smiling faces running to the door when I walk in
Saying "Daddy's home, you were gone too long. What'd you bring me? Swing me. Let me show you what I did"
I still dream about that look on a woman's face
That says I love you through the good, the bad, the sunshine or the rain
Sometimes I wish I had someone to share my life with
Maybe I'll have a wife and kids
Maybe someday....
Sometimes I wish I had someone to share my life with
Maybe I'll have a wife and kids
Someday...
I'll have a wife and kids
Maybe someday...
I had my chances. I know. Sometimes the "normal" family arrangement would be nice, though.
