A new time of thinking

First and foremost, I have to give a huge shout out to Jen Marsh .  Without her constant belief and friendship I probably wouldn't be sitting here. She constantly reminds me of what a great person I am and builds me up on my down days.  She pushes me to be me and doesn't have an expectation of what our friendship will ever look like.  She helped me to self publish my fathers book, The Ruination of Dylan Forbes .  Without her guidance and friendship, I would be light years behind so thank you Jen for your support.
