Heck, Ive been in the trenches B4, the only part of this that I find trying, is playing referee between my 93 year old Mother and my wonderful wife. I will never figure out how women think, Ha Ha.

Ouch! That is a no win situation. It is good you are there for both of them.

You will never figure out how they think! They can't figure it out, so we're screwed.

That's not a referee position I'd want to play.

Hello FTE Dudes and Dudet's, just an update. We are now at the Red Cross shelter at the Chico fairgrounds, they have consolidated other shelters and now we are at a super shelter of sorts. Poor Chico, it's like a mini LA as they have been inundated with 59 thousand of us. Our insurance company's have been real good about speeding up paperwork so there is some lite at the end of the tunnel, to restart somewhere. Well Ill let ya all go, I just didn't want you think I disappeared without a trace. I'm a FTE'er, with or without a truck. Blessings and gratitude.

I was kind of wondering the same thing, its your home but also an opportunity for something or somewhere different too. All choices with different/ specific challenges.

The heartfelt compassion and love shown here brings tears to my eyes. My deepest feelings go out to you Jimmy and ' I'm so quazy'. Your positive attitude, faith and out look is highly commendable. Love you guys and all the brothers here.
