How Jimmy Buffett Changed My Life

[Tiki Bar]

so total sappy story:: I've been a parrothead for quite a few years now. Two years ago, my dad was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. Pretty much every day I drove 50 miles each way after work to see him and have supper with him. Just before he died, I was having a really bad time. My husband came home from work, and said "I bought a cheap watch from the crazy man today". Here he had made me a stopwatch that he had bought, took out all the guts, and on the on the inside it just said now and in the bottom side where the clock would have been it said "breathe in, breathe out, move on" i just started to cry. There was not much else I could do. So yeah, JB has been a very infuluential part of my life. Sometimes all it takes is a song, a southern accent and some good words to really make a person look at life a little differently. (My hubby is also from the south) This November we are going to Key West. I think I will not want to leave the land of us. kathy from Mora, Mn

Gulp, sniffle, wiping tears from eyes. What a beautiful gesture from your husband.
