Did you forget your retied. Not to work harder then when you were working.
As I recall you were busting your B's Well you know what I mean you cutting that fallen tree all cut up just a few weeks or so before you needed to go into the hospital..

So slow down a bit but don't stop your tinkering.

I've had a few friends that needed bypass surgery that were just in their mid 50's.

I know it's not ez at times being 30 yrs old an stuck in a old mans body but we still have to deal with.

So Randle we'll all be here waiting for you to jump back into may be 2nd gear of your tinkering.

What can I say but WOW! So many comments and so much concern Thanks Guys: I sure do appreciate hearing from each and every one of you. They say they fixed everything and I should be better then I have been in a long time. We’ll just have to see, but for a week out of surgery I guess I’m doing pretty good. I have had company here most of the evening, so it’s about nap time, I’ll catch everyone tomorrow and Thanks Again.

Thanks again for all the thoughts and prayers. Each day everythingis getting better. The worst thing nowis the shortness of breath when I move around, but they tell me in time that’llbe better they it was before. I guess the hardest thing though was to set inthe AC and watch the wife in the heat mowing and working on the yard. But Iknow if I even acted like I was starting to a mower, getting over this surgerywould have less side effects. LOL

I read a lot of posts, but don't say a lot, it's much easier to learn by reading everyone else's posts than by chiming in with my limited knowledge.

I am glad to hear surgery went ok and you're on the mend. Looking fwd to your resumption of activities. Don't make us wait longer by setting yourself back. ;-)

I guess I'm doing pretty good considering everything. Every day I feel a little better then the day before. I guess my hardest thing now is watching everyone else doing my work for me. But hay on the bright side the longer this down time, the more projects I come up with. The wife says she wants to make a few shows with me, so I will be dolling up her Mustang Convertible so she will have a car to take. We went down today to see the guy that did the upholstery work for the 70 and got him setup to freshen up her interior.

Just thought I'd check in and let everyone know I'm still around and kicking. Thanks to everyone that has PMed and called to check on me. The Dr. has eased my restrictions but still have a 20 lb weight limit, but I fill good and I'm getting there. I did play with the truck a little today and got it to shifting right (thanks 351Cleveland C4) then took it out for a short drive, so far everything seemed to run pretty good. g Catch you latter and I'll try not to be so long next time.
