Well, I have not been around for quite some time.... at least 6 months now. An email from Mark sparked me to check back in. I started a new job back in November, and it has kept me pretty busy. I have not driven the Crossfire hardly any in the past year. Hopefully I will correct that in the near future.

Anyway, what's been happening that I have missed out on?

I hope to become active once again, as I do miss the friendships I have made on this forum.

 

 

I was just talking to Steve about you yesterday. Even put you on my list of people to track down this week. I've missed you Bob. I had heard you were really sick. Hope you're doing well friend

 

And, who are you again? LOL..... I know the feeling...

 

And you let a job take precedence?

Priorities, priorities...

 

I just wanted to let everyone know that I amTHE Mark who Pm'd him!

Bob, I don't see your name on the Fall Dragon list - we had a B L A S T this spring and it took me about a day to figure out who was missing, hence the PM.

I have a new job too (but I think you knew that) and have moved to Cumming, GA.
Welcome back.

As others have jibbed, priorities man!


Your posts were missed,

Welcome back

 

Hey there, Bob. At the most recent Dragon, Molly was asking about the nicely modified black SRT roadster from our previous trip. I was thinking about sending a PM your way as well.

Hope all is well, don't be a stranger...

Thanks for all the replies guys. I will definitely be making plans for the fall Dragon. I look forward to catching up with everyone.

 

Hey John.... Yeah, I went through h3ll there for a while towards the end of last year. I was feeling really bad on a day that I was having to give a big presentation. I remember saying to myself going to the podium.... Lord, please don't let me pass out during my presentation. I made it through, and told a couple of my co-workers that they would have to tear down for me... I headed to the MedStop. I had a blood Glucose of 650. They asked me how I got there? I said I drove, and they said they could not believe I was able to drive, and I was lucky that I was not comatose. So, as you can probably guess, I was diagnosed with diabetes. I started on all kinds of medicine to get my glucose down. Then, a couple weeks later, I had to go to the hospital with severe abdominal pain. I ended up in the hospital for a week and had surgery to remove a very large stone. While I was in the hospital, I got pneumonia, and had sores all over my mouth, and on my tongue, and inside of my mouth. I think that was the worst part. I was on some serious meds for that. I was at a point that I could not even remember what it felt like to feel normal. It was the most miserable I had ever been in my life. Anyway, while I was in the hospital, my blood sugar stayed normal without taking insulin or anything else. I told my doctor that I was going to stay off the meds and monitor it closely just to see what happened after I got out of the hospital. My blood sugar has remained perfect since. The only thing we can figure is that the kidney stone had me all out of whack, and was what caused me to spike like that.

Ok, I know that was long winded, but all to say.... I do not have diabetes, and I am feeling great now.

 

Wow, Bob. That makes my five days in the hospital last August (three days of it on a stomach pump, no less) sound mild by comparison.


I guess once we get past 50, every day we have our health is a GOOD day.
