No Kiddin' but my thoughts were with you this morning.
When i took the box of cornflakes this morning i got the idea of making a guitar of it : "Crow Style !"
You're an inspiration.
You're right : ROCK the BLUES away !!!
wish you the best.

@ blind doughboy

no, you're right.
i'm reclaiming my time and my self.

i wrote and recorded one song yesterday
i'm writing another now

i have a muse now, but she lives in canada. you should really hear her sing..!

i'm focusing on myself, and reclaiming all the old friendships i had let wither in the last 8 years. i've had a really good few days, refinding all of my old buddies and girlfriends..

there's been a great outpouring of love/support for me here on the nation, and from other directions i never expected.

but..

don't be surprized if at some point this crow flies WAY north for a few weeks... :D

i got my own time. i got my own life. this is going to be good.

Very sorry to hear about your grandfather, and the situation with your kids (now that the wife has gone psycho) has got to be pretty devastating. Those are the two situations that are permanent, but I believe you can keep good memories of your grandfather, and keep the relationship you want.

As for the rest . . . screw the psycho wife. Just deal with her only when you have to for the kids' sake, but other than that write her out of your life. Stay busy, even when you want to be. The worst part about sadness/rejection of this nature lies in allowing your mind to center on it. Ask yourself, if she's making your life hell, why allow her any space in your brain. i don't buy all the second wife/third wife stuff . . . that should be the last thing on your mind now.

Just rebuild your life in the way you want it. I won't say it's an opportunity, or even anything you wanted, but her actions are allowing you to become whomever you wish.

Just don't listen to any of her shit. I've been divorced since 98 . . . and you couldn't pay me enough to do that crap again. Plenty of women out there, plenty of life out there . . . to hell with those who would try and stifle you, cause you grief, or drag you down.

Good luck, man

Wow, I'm sorry to hear about all that has happened in such a short time. I wish I had some words of encouragement but I've never been married or had kids LOL I've never had the guts LOL Just remember that you have friends ( even though some of us have never even met you ) and all anyone needs in this life is friendship, everything starts from there.
Be good Crow, and in the words of Jack Black " Smoke some tasty riffs that will melt your face off!!"

I went thru a divorce a few years back and was devastated. It took me about 2 years to dig out but now life is better than it ever was before! Stick with it and let's hear some new tunes from you!

alright, so i just wrote my third song in three days.
i have to make this clear.. i'm maintaining the rule:
none of these songs are written for nor about my current condition with the wife, nor the death in the family. it's a rule i'm sticking with because to write songs for that whole thing would be too much exposure on my personal life, and would seem a little soon. i haven't even BEGUN to deal with it yet. so i wont....
'
so, my third song in three days.
i've decided i'm working on material for a solo album.

during lunch today i'll be writing the music for the song. i should be recording in a private room during lunch and be on youtube before this afternoon.

yall may want to stand back.. :)
