    I bet that Lil boat will fly. What's your plans for controls for it?

    Went to the farm yesterday to get another load of compost, the little tiller I bought to pulverize the compost was sitting there with its tines packed with weeds and the recoil is broke. Grandson says to me it gave out before I got the garden half tilled. I said no worries I will order a new recoil and we can fix it together.

    Woo, do not have all my lab tests back yet but every single one that I have got back is back to normal range. 1 big test result to get back Ferritin level, I know that it should test lower because I don't feel like crap. Not out of the woods but I dodged a major bullet, if a Dr tells you you need to make drastic changes do it. I will continue to eat clean and make certain that I get exercise every week. I am thankful that I can have a drink but that will be moderated, zero drinking during the week. Still have to go in every 6 months but it will be to check out my liver not a donated one.

    I am giddy, blessed really, fortunate. I can't begin to explain the relief. Had to remind my wife that I told her things would be fine. I still have some other issues but not having to worry about my liver rotting out is a relief.

    Being on this earth for mornings like this. Too often we chase what we think we need and forget about what we already have. [​IMG]

    I am heading out soon, driving down to my home town to go to Monticello liquor because one of my favorite AWA old time wrestling heels will be appearing. Mr Ken Paterra. I have a dear friend who is in a wheelchair because of degernerative issues who is also a huge fan, going to do a FaceTime call to encourage him.

    Kenny was great, he did the phone call it was awesome. I arranged for some time to chat one on one after the session. I wanted to talk to him about the jobbers that the stars pummeled every week on the studio show, he was not interested. I wanted to talk about the studio shows and interviews he was not interested. I tried to ask a few questions based on things he said during other interviews, the answers I got back were different than the information he stated before. Granted Ken is an old man now but he is a racist bigot, perhaps he has the same thoughts as the rest of us but the terms he used to describe was racist.

    Believe this will be the last travel sports event I'll ever attend with one of my kids. My youngests last travel season is coming to a close.

    Been taking my kids to practices and games for nearly 20 yrs and sports taught them so much. Bitter sweet.

    Juncos are back at the feeder, and the swans have come back to their fall staging area with a young one that is still a little gray. Love this time of year, deep lake so I have an ice ridge outside the bay the the swans and otter use that till we freeze up completely usually 2 weeks after other lakes so we get a lot of late visitors.

    My 8 month travel season started Monday night. It's a great group and looks to be a fun, yet long season.
