To all my knapping Nuts!!
« on: January 24, 2011, 05:14:29 pm »
Hi guys wanted to take a moment  and let u all know I'm going through some tough times!!! I will get back to doing  what I enjoy most of all flint knapping!!!  I am happy to announce I have my kids still in my life.  I can't wait to get all this figured out and get to bopping some rock.  Thanks for all the support guys. Take care and be well!

Time, dedication, cuts, tons of broken rock, a wife, and perhaps a few girlfriends are some of what it takes in becoming a skilled flint knapper!!!

Just keep going and don't ever quit.  If you fall down just get back up.  Bill

Old proverb "Fall down seven times, get up eight."  Since you are a rock knocker, you gotta have an ornery streak of survival in there somewhere.  Don't be afraid to talk to your buddies about it, if they can't handle it then they weren't friends in the first place.

good luck sir
i do not know you but i am divorced with a son. and i wish you the best.
my best advice is never involve them. i just spend every second i have with the boy. keeping our bond strong.
my only goal being being the best father possible.
it has worked for me 9 years.
keep beating on the stones sir. sometimes every flake i take from the stone clears my mind a little more.
other things work too. i found throwing myself off waterfalls in a kayak works well to ;D

Lets keep this around so he knows we are still thinking about him.  A prayer every now and then won't hurt, either.  Bill
