I have raised three utterly wonderful human beings
I tried my best to make a rubbish marriage work for many years.
I found an amazing man who loves me and moved all the way from Canada to England to be with me, man I MUST be good.
I lost weight

I am a good friend
I am funny

    if there is anything closer to perfection, I haven't seen it
  • While I'm usually reluctant to engage in self-promotion, at its heart this may help some folks who have "self worth issues" (I know I have some) with putting some things in perspective. In that spirit, here goes:

    o I was and am a good son, never in serious trouble, and always respectful to my mother (dad passed when I was 3.)
    o I can be empathetic, sensitive and nurturing without forfeiting my membership to the Men's Club.
    o I've never taken illicit or illegal drugs. Any. Ever. Not so much as a tiny hit. A promise I made my mother as a kid (see #1 above.)
    o I can be objective and analytical even in the face of a personal crisis.
    o I take my spiritual faith very seriously while not judging or proselytizing others in the process.
    o I have a decent eye for aesthetics and composition, and at one time considered being a professional photographer.
    o I'm still respectful of women and my elders.
    o I have a dry (and sometimes morbid) sense of humor.
    o I've always had a decent grasp of language and how to use it to effectively communicate.
    o I make a concerted effort to radiate a positive attitude.
    o Once I make up my mind to do something, I approach it with near pit-bull like tenacity (hence, my current fitness efforts.)

    Well, that will do for now. This was mildly cathartic, thanks OP! :)

    Why am I effing fabulous? Well.........

    I am in my mid 50's, and rarely act like it.
    I learned to drive when I was 45 yrs old, in the midst of a sh!tty marriage.
    I left the sh!tty marriage, and my life is awesome.
    I sing with a 6-piece dance band and LOVE it.
    I raised two wonderful, intelligent, responsible daughters.
    I have a grandson that is the smartest, cutest, greatest, most awesome child in the universe.
    I have a great job, and I do it quite well, thank you very much.
    I love to laugh, have fun, drink beer, act silly, and ENJOY LIFE!

    EVERYONE on this site is FABULOUS, too!

    Thanks for allowing us to be a little narcissistic!

    I work hard and I work smart.
    I'm a good son, brother, husband and father.
    I've made my share of mistakes, but have tried to learn from them.
    I cook, do laundry, and housework because my wife is my partner not my maid.
    I am diligent and punctual.
    I know that I'm not perfect, just fabulous.
    and
    I've never set foot in a Starbucks!
