Just get you Guys caught up on whats been going on since I've been gone.

Still here basically in town with all the people. Had a building on one side of my property defiantly on my property, neighbor was saying it was his talked to a Lawyer. Lawyer advised us to sell him just that small section with the shed. By the time he paid Survey, Paper Work and all the Shed cost him more than it was worth. Then neighbors on other side tried the same. But they was trying to sell the place, buyers tried getting me to sell them 30 feet which I wouldn't. Later found they was wanting it for a pool.

Come Spring I had a place on my Thigh. Went to the Hospital. It was a infection, I had to be operated on, they found it was a Tick, laid me up all Spring. Then towards end of Summer I was having pain. Went to Hospital it was my Gall Bladder. Had to wait couple weeks to be operated on plus get me off Blood Thinners. Go in for Outpatient Surgery, 30 minutes Tops, well my Pastor and wife waited 3 hours then was told they had to talk to the Surgeon. He told them I had infection around my Liver and Stomach worst he had ever seen. They get me to my room, blood pressure kept bottoming out because of internal bleeding. They didn't know if they was going to save me. Surgeon stayed with me for 6 hours until I was stable, then was back up there at 5:30AM. That was Friday then they about lost me again Sunday. Guess Lord figured I had more work here.

Day before I had surgery I lost my Little Jack Russell, buddy of 15 years Got him a nice Little Head Stone, still miss him.

We got Rabbits and Chickens. Put in few Raised Beds for some Garden. Going to expand as far as Garden and Orchard this Spring.

Because of surgery because it was so bad and my age and how serious it was I can't do much of anything for at least next March preferably July Yea I can see that happening.

I was kept for two more years as a Deacon. Surprising considering my mistakes but I'm of this world of sin, I repented and asked the congregation to forgive me which they did.

I know not much but that is about all at least the bulk of it.

Very nice to see you back. Sorry about all your health troubles and the loss of your little dog. But it is true. What does not kill us makes us stronger - and more interesting and you were plenty interesting to begin with!

I'm happy to hear you're still kicking. With all that you've been through, maybe its time for a little fishing.

Add me to the long list of folks who are really happy to hear from you!!! You were terribly missed, bro.

With all the rough stuff you've been through, is proof that you must be like some of us: part cockroach...heh, you know how that goes. You can stomp its guts out, and yet it still manages to keep on going...lol

I am so sorry you have gone through so many heavy duty troubles. Here's a little something to brighten your day, it's a lil' thread in the Singletree forum, downstairs. I know you will enjoy it.

Smiles here, there and everywhere...
