Hi all,
Just popping in for a short.
Doing alot better,,there letting me drive now,,Schools in so taking Ashley back & Forth.
Hurricane pounded us with 8-10 inchs of rain but all in all we dodged a bullet.

Been playing on facebook alot. found an old buddy from 30+ years ago that I thought was Dead but he is kicking & of all things a Preacher now.
He's only 1-1/2--2 hours north of me so were gonna get together & run off a few rounds here pretty quick (I CAN'T WAIT!)

I'll check in tomorrow to see whats up but had alot of stuff going on today & Denest tomorrow so Nite all Be well & GOD Bless

LOL NO guys just trying to get everything back in order.

I'm Finaly off that "Walker" thing! (DAYUM THAT FEELS GOOD!!!!)

And doing better every day just been trying to help around the house now Alot, Mary's been so Good throuth this hole thing, She was so behind in work & with every thing around here I'm now doing all the Laundry,(tied a rope on the basket so I can drag it behind me) Some of the cooking, Dishs, Cat trays (YUCK) but now shes able to catch up with her stuff also.
And then this Hurricane, I was able to board up my place about 60% (Just in case-Got out the generators & got both them going) This week I been trying to trim some of the trees & get my Stuff

(Mary calls JUNK)

shifted & out to the swale so if another one threatens I'll be more prepaired.
I'm going to try to take the Family out for a cook-out @ the beach tomorrow (They don't know it yet I been getting supplys ready all day today)
I have not fired any of my guns in months but did talk Mary into letting me have my Beretta back & cleanded in & hopefully go to the range next week.

So far all the Doctors are happy with how I'm progressing so all in all life is getting back to normal. (FINALY)
Before this thing happened I hardly ever slept 2,3,4 hours a night. Now I find myself tired all the time I been taking naps during the day, something I Never did! But doc's say that very normal.

LOL I remember my birthday & some of the phone numbers-Addresses again

With any luck I'll be back to harass Jim Soon

Sorry Jim
