Do these shoes make my butt look fat?
I mean, I think with these pants, they just don't work.. dang it.. the color's all wrong.. it's already June and I'm so over camo...(tho the grey camo is nice... ).. but... my belt doesn't match... and it's just all wrong... and my wife is being grouchy, the kids are mean, the dog's not talking to me, and the cat is shedding......
Hey guys.. whuzzup? Just wanted to stir the pot a bit... haven't posted much... went back to work 6 weeks ago for the first time in 6 years! Thank you God! It was only a temporary part time job, (already ended
) I was doing hospice care with my sister.. basically just staying a few nights a week with an elderly terminal patient so he could spend his final weeks in his own home.
It was a LONG ways from my normal past lines of work, but it was a good way to break back into the work force slowly, getting used to being on my feet, used to working again. It worked out good, I made it thru it, made a few bucks, paid a few bills, you know the drill. Good part is, my newly working leg handled it pretty good.. made it thru with only a few pain pills, some 'old man arthritis pain rub" etc.. LOL.
It was very cool to be working again. A man needs to work, you know? After 6 years of pain, partial paralysis, stuck in bed crap.. I can't describe how good it felt to work.
So, I went to see my doc, and he's agree I"m ready to be released for full time work. I have to jump thru the processes, get a full physical to see how good my legs are etc.. but probably within a month or two.
Anyway, I'll be back in here adding my .5 cents in now and then.
Weight loss slowed down, only 10 pounds in 2 months.. but now that my legs are better I plan to start walking more.
Later guys,
Dale

Glad to see you back around here. I went over to your profile page and read some of your story. Dude, you walked right up to the edge of the cliff and looked over didn't you. I'm glad your inching your way back to safe ground. Hang in there. Once you start walking, I believe the rate of loss will pick up for you.
The free man owns himself. He can damage himself with either eating or drinking....... If he does he is certainly a damn fool, and he might possibly be a damned soul; but if he may not, he is not a free man any more than a dog.
