Best and worst years of your life?

My 20's were a blast...I don't know if they could have been any better. LOL. I met my wife when I was 25 and we got married when I was 29. We continued to have a great time. Things slowed down a bit when we had kids. All my friends got RV's and instead of going to party in Vegas, we would go camping for long weekends with all the kids. We had a group of about 10 RV's (including my parents) that went on pretty much every trip together. I reconnected with Grads & Mrs. Daytona in about 2008 after quite a few years and he got me on the Forums. My 40's have been great so far. I definitely have had a great time in 2012 & 2013 with all the people I have met through the forums.

I got off relatively easy. I had a section on my back removed along with 9 lymph nodes in my armpit. I had a tube sticking out of the side of my chest as well as a bag that I had to carry around for three weeks. I also had to do a topical chemo treatment (Fluorouracil) that essentially eats your skin for about a month.

I think about you all the time man....I hope you're doing okay.

This is probably the only time you can say that and not creep a guy out ;)

Within the course of a year I lost my business, one of my best friends, my dog, pretty much everything I owned and I was told I had cancer. It seemed like every time I asked "what else could possibly go wrong?" it got worse. My 40's are getting to be fun but only because I've embraced the fact that I'm not 20 anymore.

Wife and I met in my mid twenties and married late 20's as well. We did all the fun stuff with all the other single and married friends, but we were one of the only couples that continued to do the fun stuff(boating, dunes, camping, etc.) once we all started having children. Hell, I'd been doing it all along since I already had a boy from my previous marriage, he was always in the middle of all our parties and camping trips. Some epic and classic pictures with him being in the middle of it all, like him in control of the beer tap, or being tossed around in the lake by everyone...makes me laugh thinking of that stuff. :D
It was kinda sad that many of our friends more or less fell off the face of the earth when they had kids.

"Thank You Button" Clicked. :LMAOsmiley::LMAOsmiley: Now that is funny.

It looks like 44 is going to be great! ;)

I don't care about the house, the boat, the cars, anything. If I lost it all tomorrow as long as I had Chrissie I could go start over and rebuild somewhere else. I learned a long time ago not to get too attached to things...my wealth is in my wife....

I did exactly that in 2009-2010

The best comes in a few categories... I think... It's too hard to choose...

Mid 80's, living on my own in Chicago, my wallet was fat and I had just finished my first harley, living large and traveling the globe with my job...

Watching my son being born, as his head popped out and he was looking strait up at me... I lost it and cried like a baby, forever changed me...

Standing chest deep in the Big Piney river fishing for smallmouth and goggle eye with my father...

My kids first day of school and the field trips when they were little...

Best? thats a tough one
Worst 2014, 2015, 2017 LOL

Can you have a best and worst in the same year???
