The Thickening 
Glad to find your blog, Dave – Amy’s fb post directed me to your co-dependency piece – well done!
Thanks for reading!
Rusty! Just came upon this….I’m smiling and proud to know ya. Way to go for “it”. Getting someone to laugh, tear up and think because of the way you write…that’s a gift. Best of everything to you and Love of Life.
Thanks for your words and support, Anne!
I finally found time to sit still for a few and read your blog. Excellent work and keep it up! Oh, and thank you for going to the Rockies during that time so ‘The love of your life ‘ could become one of my dearest friends!
Being young and shiftless had it’s advantages! You meet a lot of great people. I’m glad we all met in CO. Thanks for reading, Kris.
So when are you compiling this into a print publication? Fantastic work, Rusty! I love it.
I’ll start putting it all together when my assistant returns from vacation. Seriously though, thanks for reading. I have to write another SLAP! for you, Mike. Maybe for Halloween.
Wow Dave, your writing is amazing and inspiring. The man I know seems quite and modest. I am thrilled to have found this and will continue to read.
