just a little ketchup

Or catch up. :-)

Been a couple of weeks since I posted... I promised myself (and you) I would post more, and I'm sorry I have not. Been some 'personal issues' going on that have taken my attention... I will say that I have grown as a person, and as a spouse, because of it, and there's a new song coming soon... :-) Yes, Robert, it's a happy song! It's a love song and no one dies. ;-)

I've played the Farmers Market a few times, but skipped yesterday because of the heat! WHEW! Have been some GREAT crowds there and I've really enjoyed it! I'm still playing in Henderson on Saturday nights and was so VERY excited last week when Vanessa got to join me! Not only did I pass the bass off a couple of times so she and I could dance but I also got her on stage for three songs. And did the crowd ever love it! :-)

Here's a pic from last night...

The reason Vanessa has not been able to go is because she's been chasing HER dream! She's been working more and more hours in the EMS world. I know she's probably tired of hearing me say this, but I am very VERY proud of her selfless way of giving to those in need!

I started a Patreon page today for my songwriting and as a way of collecting funds for the next CD project... It's not live yet, though, as I'm still tweaking it. Vanessa is sleeping finally after working 48 hours straight, so I'm waiting to let her see it and help me make changes...

I did make the Patreon for the Car Wars PBEM live, if you'd like to check into that...

I won't be at the dance next week as I'll be at the Spry-Anderson Family Reunion in Paris, TN. Looking forward to defending the Rook Championship title with my partner Vanessa. :-) Yes, Rook is the family game and yes we play a tourney at the reunion each year. :-)

The next Saturday night I'll be performing in Union City at Discovery Park! I'm actually going to be there twice in August but that first Saturday night will be my first time there! Looking forward to meeting the people that come through there...

That's all for now! Take care of yourself and hug the ones you love! Tell them - nay - SHOW them you love them!
