New days for Due nays

I don't really know what that title means.

I'm having a great time with this whole life thing. Callie and I went climbing at the City of Rocks last weekend and had an amazing time. Callie is amazing and I'm not sure what I ever did to have such a pretty girl like me, but I'd do it again.
A couple weeks before that we made a trip through the Darby Canyon ice caves. I'm rock climbing nearly every day, or at least "plastic" climbing.

I think that besides the constant ache of arthritis in my hands, I'm as healthy as I've ever been.

My family is great to me, and my friends' families treat me like their own. I can't believe the amazing gift that life is.

I think that my uncle Val must have had a life like mine. I have a few of the things that he left behind, and I hear good things about him on a regular basis.

If perchance my time passed away, I do want to make some final requests, though I pray that final days won't come for a long long time.
1. Bury me in a pine box. I know that funerals are supposed to be some big expensive cry fest, but if I go, just put me in the ground and celebrate how amazing a life I got to live. Have a party, and if you don't, I'll come haunt you.

2. My things are few, but let Sam and Devan and Summers pick through what they want and then I don't know, sell the rest on ebay or something.

3. Burton Cemetery - It just seems like a good place to rest.

4. Just be happy and live your lives. Things are not what make life great. Life is. Don't spend your lives buried in work you don't like, or play you don't like for that matter. Drink (unfiltered) from a mountain stream sometime. Take a risk that you never have before. Stop and help someone change a tire. Give away something you think you love. You'll find that you don't miss it at all.

I'll stop now for fear of becoming a motivational quotes calendar . . . but just know that my life is good. I'm happy. I hope you are too.
