    If it wasn't for bad luck you'd have no luck at all.
    Man that must have sucked one right after another, or maybe I should say one overlapping into another.
    Good to hear you're in better spirits now that you're getting out.

    Glad you're doing better Scotty.
    :yes:

    Downtime doesn't seem to be your thing.

    Less Overkill on the injuries and sickness for the rest of the year.

    Hey Scotty Overkill! Good to hear from you even though it wasn't all good news. Glad to see you're recovering and back to working.
    You know I'm only about 30 minutes away from you. If you'd like some help splitting wood or whatever, let me know.

    Wow, what a series of crap you went through!

    Here's to hoping that you're past that stage and back to 100% again.

    Well Scotty, it seems we all get kicked where it hurts most from time to time and it sounds like you got into a kicking match and lost this one. Dang, I surely hope it gets better fast.

    I sure hope you've been leaning on Joe through this?!

    Yeah, many of us are looking forward to spring and the GTG. I just hope I'll be in good shape for it. I remember last year when I was not in very good shape for the GTG. It could be worse this year as right now I'm waiting on the date for another surgery; this time on my neck. Yuck.

    But lets all look forward to spring again! It did put a smile on my face this morning watching all the deer. You remember where Barcroftb was climbing that tree last spring; several were right close to that tree. That seems to be a good place for us to see them and we love it.

    You ain't kidding. It was miserable......

    It's funny, because literally the day after I smashed my elbow, I bought elbow pads, and I wear the right one every single time I use the chipper from now on (blacksmith will attest to that).

    papadave it'd be kinda hard swinging around in the tree, let alone climbing the tree with an additional 200lbs on....but it's food for though! lmao!

    Scotty Overkill I bet you didn't ask anyone here for permission to do what you did. If you had, we all would have told you it was a bad idea. Next time, ask first:rofl: :lol::rofl: :lol::rofl: :lol::rofl: :lol::rofl: :lol::rofl: :lol::rofl: :lol:Glad you are on the mend.:handshake:
