Hey folks - just checkin' in!
Hey there all my Tennessee Forum friends! How ya'll been? It's been a while since I have posted, but I've been busier than a cat covering up it's business the last 6 months! Here's the short scoop:
1) Retired from the city Dec. 31, 2009, after 30 years of service
2) Started a home repair business 1 week later
3) My 80 year old mother was hospitalized in March for over 2 months with severe blood infection that settled in her spine - she nearly died - she's still trying to recuperate but will never be independent again.
4) My 86 year old mother-in-law has had 4 major strokes in the last six weeks - currently in the hospital in bad shape.
As you can see, I've been stretched to the max and no end in sight for the immediate future. The wife and I work every day, then go take care of an elderly parent at night. But at least I'm able to do it - no way I could have before WLS! I feel great and my weight is holding between 170 - 176 lbs., and I've had no health issues since my surgery!
Hope to be able to get back here more often in the future.
Ya'll all take care.

Hey Bob! Tried to call you a couple of times but couldn't get through for some reason. Sent you a few emails - jokes and the like. You're right ol' buddy, we do need to do some catchin' up. I'm hoping to be able to get up your way in a few weeks for a weekend, when things settle down a bit with our both of our mothers. Hope everything is going well for you and Debbie. Tell her hello from us.
Give me a shout when ya get a few minutes (or hours, LOL). C'ya buddy!

Hi Bob from Bama
It is so good to see ya.... I was talking about you the other day.. Were your ears burning?
Squeeze some time into your busy schedule and come visit your Nashville friends. I am serious about that.. Ms. Barb is wonderful at setting up get together times and locations.. just let us know when it could be a possibility and she will make it happen. And for a low fee of 5 dollas we will let the other Bob tag along
Are you and Patricia still being able to do the motorcycle weekend rides?
