That's the attitude to have !!

My neighbor lost his lower leg in a logging accident 16 years ago. Never missed a beat running his company and a year after the accident he was back elk hunting in the mountains. Prosthetics get better every year. Those who don't know him, don't know he's missing the limb and he's a great practical joker about it. All attitude. It's only a disability if you let it become one.

The bed of your truck looks perfect from here. Nice job you're getting done there.
