Thanks TFF !!! - The Firearms Forum

goofy · 01-31-2012, 06:28 AM

I have not been around much the last couple of weeks due to ALOT of work.I got real busy and was putting in 14+ hours a day witch put me in the hospital with pneumonia

Guess i'm not as young as i think (turning 56 this month) I got out and went back to work trying to catch up.ANYWAY.

The reason I am writing this is to thank the members who have PM me asking if every thing is ok Joe (juker) was the first to ask( you are a good man thanks for the concern and asking).Then I have gotten calls and a pm from a member who had a question about a ithaca he was told to talk to me (Thanks joncutt87 for the good words)

I have only been a member for a year I have had many questions answered and I hope I have helped a few people.But I have made allot of good friends and feel like I am part of a family a good and strong family, One that cares about it's members.

So having said that I would like to take this time to thank ALL of my TFF friends and brothers for letting me be a member and putting up with stupid questions and showing concern.

THERE IS NO BETTER THEN TFF AND IT'S MEMBERS YOU SHOULD BE PROUD OF WHAT YOU HAVE. I KNOW I AM.

Thanks and God bless you
Mike

That pneumonia is a Bugger, glad to see that you have pulled through ! Although we've not met I still hate to hear of anyone seriously sick.

Also glad to see that you have all the support you need thanks to good friends. Keep taking good care so you can build up your strength from fighting that terrible illness. Good luck to you and welcome back.

goofy · 02-01-2012, 05:14 AM

Thanks all for kind words.Yea i'm slowing down not putting in to many hours.My wife makes sure of that(it's hard to work with her foot up my butt) she is making sure i'm not pushing to hard.I just had to realize that I can only get done what I can and the customers have to except that this is not a drive thru shop.I will get things done when they get done.I hate looking at work that I need to do but I can only do so much.
With no insurance the hospital showed me that all I make can be lost if i am stupid.
I am trying to get guns prepped for blueing and fix others and sell and man the phone.My partner has not been in due to the department changing him to days so I had to do it.
But not anymore I put in 8 to 9 hour's and thats it!
What gets done gets done what don't don't there is allways tomorrow.
Your comments prove what I said.
THIS IS THE BEST PLACE!! TFF IS THE BEST!!! AND THE PEOPLE HERE MAKE IT THAT WAY!!!
