Doing alright for the most part.. Been a few things happening in my life.. My wife is on a cleanse because the VA wants to try to reset her body or some weird thing like that.. She is on week 3 and is hating life... She is super limited on what she can eat and in order to support her I gave up drinking for the entire time she has been on it.

This last weekend my daughters 6mo. old puppy got hit by a car and that ended up costing us a house payment so I've been really busy taking care of him. Besides the road rash all over his hind quarters he also has a broken *****, and a ruptured bladder. So Im sitting here with a dog whose stomach kind of looks like Frankenstein with all the staples in him.

I've been trying to take the car out but the weather has been just to shitty and cold. Other than that, not a whole lot else is happening.

Thanks Mark! Im dealing well with it.. Although I sure could use a drink. LOL

Actually part of the reason I stopped drinking, is because I was getting such bad acid re-flux every time I drank a beer or any liquor.. I figured WTH, it was worth a try. Besides this summer I drank so much dang beer camping and otherwise, I figure I could stand to stop and maybe lose some of the weight also.

Life seems to come at all of us fast these days, but I’m glad to hear you are hanging in there.

Watched the 1st 7 minutes or so with the wife and I've been there with her a couple times.. She was just laughing and said yep, seems about right.

Yep, she even has friends that work there and they have trouble.. Its very sad that its like that.

Its always a fight with them to get them to check out what she is in there for. I finally had her go to a regular doctor and they confirmed what was wrong. She brought that info to the VA and they said they dont believe it.. Took 2 more years for them to admit what she brought in was in fact an issue.. Its very frustrating.

I'm going thru with a VA lawyer so I'm hoping things go easier
 
Sold my West Coast Chopper project tonight. Such a long project it feels like a kid is gone. Sad but more money and space for the Demon
 
While I was playing with my images on the computer, my daughter decided to do her own artwork.

Acrylics hand painted on canvas 11” x 14”. Entirely her own work to capture the Fall season.

I am impressed...and very proud.
