Craig, hows the hand?

Phil, hows the grandson?

Paul, what's the diff between Festiva and Fiesta?

LOL

Okay, I'll go first.

I saw Jace last Sun. He seemed fine, for the most part, but he did get a headache, & threw up once. He seemed to recover quickly, though.

I, however, can't seem to look to the left, after twisting my back awhile ago.

Just goes to show ya - it's always something.

Ian & Jace came for dinner. The boy was really 'on' tonight!

He went & put on a pair of Sue's sandals & proceeded to trip all over the living room. He stopped once, & started to thump his feet pretty fast for a lil guy, like he was river dancing. Then he fell down.

Ian shaves his head, & Jace needs a haircut pretty badly.

Jace walked up to his dad, pointed at his bald head & said "All done." Then he pointed at his own head & said, "More!"

I about died.

He's got one hell of a sense of humor, that boy. For a somewhat physically challenged three year old who can hardly talk at all, he can really make you laugh, & he loves to be the center of attention. I really love having him around.

All the bandages are off.

Right hand is healed, but I'm not sure I have as much function as I used to. Could just be not playing for weeks. Hope so.

Left hand is healing up, but still very stiff. Hard to play like I used to. But it is not healed up all the way, so we'll see if I get full function back.

I pray that it heals up, Craig. I've all but lost my left hand, & I'd hate to see you go through that, too.

It's hell.

Do whatever it takes to heal, then do whatever it takes to get back in shape, my man.

We're pulling for you!

Thanks Phil! Much appreciated brother.

I think things in my life are about to get worse before they get better though!

But, I hope not.

What's that I hear all the time?

"God doesn't give you anything that you can't handle."

Sometimes that's a tough thing to remember.

Still pulling for ya, though.

I could handle gonorrhea too, but that doesn't mean I want it!

That's not an invite to a Stickmasters meeting is it?





Just kiddin' - Thanks for the encouragement!

Well, I think that whoever coined that particular phrase should have added the caveat: "Individual results may vary."

In my experience, god might not give me anything I can't handle, but the results are rarely the ones that I really want, or think I need.

It too often seems that his ideas of what I need & mine are worlds apart!

Well... arguing with God is better than not talking to Him at all!

What exactly did you do to burn your hands up?

Oil that had caught fire. Got spilled over both hands.

Fiestas were German Fords. Kind of finicky. The festivas are korean built mazdas and bullet proof.

Cooking oil, motor oil?
Wrestling in baby oil?
