There’s been so much bad luck Blowing in the gales of life, The sails of my happiness are Tattered and won’t hold the wind. Life has long been such a heavy load My little boat is listing And it needs to be rebalanced. I have stores of ballast, so My little craft won’t sink. My twisted fingers still can hold A needle to mend the spinnaker. The tiller isn’t broken and The rudder still steers true. I can see the distant shore And the tide is lifting me. Soon I will make landfall and be safe ljm

LANDFALL
There’s been so much bad luck Blowing in the gales of life, The sails of my happiness are Tattered and won’t hold the wind. Life has long been such a heavy load My little boat is listing And it needs to be rebalanced. I have stores of ballast, so My little craft won’t sink. My twisted fingers still can hold A needle to mend the spinnaker. The tiller isn’t broken and The rudder still steers true. I can see the distant shore And the tide is lifting me. Soon I will make landfall and be safe ljm
Finally gettting eccited about the move to Nevada. All the crap will at last be over.
