day one~

So 14 plus years ago, a good friend asked me to come to softball game in Peabody.  Being single and
always looking for fun and meeting new people.  I drag one of my very best friends to come with me
cause I won't go alone.  I arrive at the park and am greeted my several people I know and a few new
faces... out in the outfield, I see him.. his smile came across the field and his laugh was loud.  I will call
him "George".  Come to find out his name is Charlie. 

At first introduction, I thought "how handsome is he".  After the game we all stood around having a few drinks and getting to know everyone, not Charlie this time he had 3 little ones with him 2 boys and a girl, they
were very cute and he seemed like a great Dad. 

I had to get "his story" kids didn't mean he was married did it? Damn, just my luck.  I began to ask other
members of the team.  I learned that he was a great guy, in a very unahppy marriage about to move out
and very dedicated to his kids.  Being a product of a divorce, my Dad moving away and not seein him much, this impressed me and I couldn't wait until the next game to see him again!
