The Summer's Over

Hello People,
Hasn't been a great summer for me, got laid off and still no job. The boyfriend was in a really bad Tractor Trailer accident. A little old lady ran the stop light and he T-Boned her, she got hurt really bad but didn't die. Totally wrote off his International. Sold the 55 Merc PU, so I didn't have anything to bring to Arthur. My Mom has Gone In for knee replacement surgery, so I have been looking after my Dad(89 years young).
Looks like it's been pretty quiet around here.
Well I am back, so lets get our yah yahs out.
Also looking after my Stallion who fractured his knee,not fun.

Wow, falcon, that's a rough summer. Are you in 1 piece still? Hope things pick up for you.

BTW, this is the point where my wife rolls her eyes and says that it's still summer until Sep 21.

Thanks for the comment.
Yeah I'm hanging in, the knee is doing okay on both equine and human end of it. Still no job, which is probaly a good thing right now cause I'm still sort of babysitting everybody.

Wow, indeed.
My mom had knee replacement surgery. Very painful. I thought it was torture actually the way they force the joint to move so soon after surgery. Now her other knee is gone and she doesn't wan't to go through it again.
Well, look at the bright side, your health is good and you can help those around you that need your help.

Things will turn around, i'm sure.
