Morning Don, Charlie and Pat.

Hang in there Don... I know what'll snap this funk you're in. Buy another toy to rebuild.

Good to see you back, Don.

If it's any consolation, Don..........I also get the holiday blues, not like yours, but I hope for this time of year to get lost quickly........Not my favorite time of year by any measure.

I just wish I had some warning. This crap hit's me when I least expect it, and I just shut down. I know it's hard on Melody, but I don't have a choice. I just go to sleep for days, and don't want to talk with anybody. It's still bothering me today, but my back is killing me and I had to get up...

I'll go to the shop today, but most likely won't get much done, but I am up...

How did you pay for the item(s)?

If it was by credit card I would refuse payment.

It was by debit card, and they took the money over two weeks ago, so that won't work.

Morning Don, Sorry to hear what your going through. I take it Harley had another Diabetic episode, sounds like he is ok, praise the Lord. How the heck can they not deliver it to where you asked them. I'd call that guy and read him the riot act.
