Well… here we are. I’ve been wanting to start a weekly blog for over a year now, sooooo here it goes. I want to start out by giving you a few warnings. There will be A LOT of grammatical mistakes. It’s been awhile since I’ve written anything, back off. Also, If you don’t vibe with some of the humor please re-introduce yourself to some vital (to my life) late 80’s early 90’s classics. Including, but not limited to 1. What About Bob 2. The Burbs (Late 80’s) 3. Fletch 4. Fletch Lives 5. Dumb and Dumber 6. Beverly Hills Ninja…. I could go on but you get the point.

2021 was a bit of a roller coaster for the Fullmer Family. A lot of exciting things took shape, also Covid happened so there was that. By far the biggest thing that happened…. obviously… probably goes without saying…we got a cat. Actually 3. The 2 strays ended up moving on to greener pastures, Betty White is here to stay. I should clarify that the reason we got a cat was because we moved from my childhood home of 30 years out to the other side of town, leaving everything I knew and loved. The new home has been great. The kids are heaven, we have a little more space (including garage space) which brings me to the next big event…. The day I brought home Black Betty.

When we brought home Betty White I knew something was missing, and MJ said it best when He articulated “it doesn’t matter if you’re black or white.” Black Betty completed the family. For those who don’t know who Black Betty is she’s our 1970 Chevelle. And she’s beautiful. She’s got all the right curves in all the right places, knows exactly what she wants when she wants it (premium gas). She’s even kinda loud. Which honestly, I kinda like.

Going back to the move, Moving is the worst! Especially when you don’t have an oven for what felt like 10 years. A lot of ya asked “well if you didn’t want to move why did you”? And that’s a fair question. But let me explain because it was complicated to say the least. We loved our home. Kelsi almost grew to love it as much as I did. We put so much time, effort, money and love into it. That home held basically all of my childhood memories. That’s where all Dad’s memories were too. I was so nervous about leaving that. Also, leaving our amazing neighbors was so sad. Finally, at the end of the day, we felt like it was the right thing to do for OUR family. Even though I bawled like a baby when we left for the last time. Literally, I was bawling. I haven’t regretted it once. It was time to write our own chapter. Often times making the right choices can be extremely difficult. Actually, one thing Ive learned recently is that making the right choices can often be the MOST difficult. But, can also bring the most happiness as well.

There it is, my first blog post! I am feeling very accomplished right now. New Years resolutions baby! Let’s go! Speaking of New Years resolutions. Let’s chat about that next week. We have big goals. You should too. Let’s accomplish them together. Have a SMOOOOOTH week.

Love,

Cabe
