I'll be gone for a few days
« on: July 20, 2005, 02:14:29 AM »
Sorry guys, I know this is off topic but wanted you to know I'll be gone for a few days. Going to have some revision surgery to my left hip. I had it replaced a while ago and there is a problem with an impinged tendon which is a bit painful and uncomfortable. Hopefully this will straighten it out. I have been working my butt off in this hot humid weather getting as much done as I can since I coulkd be laid up for 2-3 weeks when I return. I will be leaving for the hospital in an hour or so and should return by Sunday. I don't know when I can get back to the computer. I have it set up in the cellar because of the construction. No kitchen, nothing but a fridge, bathroom and a bedroom, camping out is easier!!! Hope to see and talk to you all soon....<><.... :grin:

Thanks to all!!! Well I made it home fine although it took about 3+ hours to get back from the hospital, all the tourists headed to the Cape for the weekend. My wife had to drive and when we got home we found out the cellar was partially flooded  since the gutters have been removed for the addition/renovation. All is pretty well back to normal now, will be on crutches for a week or so. I expected a 2-3" incision, I got a 12" incision!!! I'm so lucky!!! The operation went well and a lot of scar tissue and "garbage" was removed by the surgeon (he is a hunter by the way) the computer mouse died from the moisture I think (the computer is in the cellar because of the construction) but I had another and luckily I was able to get it working. Thanks for all the prayers and thoughts guys, I am sure they helped..And thanks Mitchell!!!  I'll be waiting for the mailman every day!!! It will be something to look forward to!! Something from you and H&R is sending me my replacement checkered TDC buttstock. Well, got to go, my hip and incision are telling me I have been sitting long enough, it's good to be back....<><.... :grin:

MSP, nice to see your back writing again.  Follow the doctors order's and don't rush the healing.  Hunting season is just around the corner.  Hope all goes well with the construction.
