lol i take my ring off now for everything once it got caught on a metal tube and almost snapped my finger!

I never wore my ring or watch at work when working on computers. 220V will melt them real fast. Also never wore them when working around the house or on a car. Saw what happened to a guy when he got his ring across the posts of a solenoid, basically melted his gold ring around his finger. Too bad I wasn't as cautious when climbing that ladder.

Hey, I read the MRI report again. It's actually the tendon coming off the main muscle in the rotator cuff that's torn, not the muscle itself.

Hey, thanks, I'll be fine guys. Just a couple of torn tendons, nothing life threatening. We need to worry about Ric right now, he's the one that could use the prayers and good thoughts.

What did the Doc have to say Hank? Is the Ford tractor running today?

Hey, Henry just drove the tractor up and down the drive. It moves on it's own and the engine sounds good. Have to finish putting on a few more pieces then and it will be done. Then we check out the snow blower attachment.

Doc gave me a cortisone shot. Maybe I misunderstood or heard what I wanted to. Lynda thinks it's only a temporary fix. I called him back but he was gone. I'll try again on Monday to talk to him. Even if it is only temporary I need a break. I'm tired of hurting and tired of going to therapy. Maybe it will require surgery for a real fix, we'll see.

Man, I just read about Ric's day and then I read about you, Hank. Man it sucks getting older !!!

It sure beats the alternative though.

Now you have to figure out how to get a super-charger on the Ford. Make for fast work blowing snow that way.

I've had quite a few cortisone shots. They worked for some things, but not others.

Ms.....hell yes it's a pain getting old! This cold weather is real hard on us old guys too.

I hope it works, but remember you want to be good for next summer as you missed the Summer / Fall 2011.

I was fine till I turned 50 and then everything starts falling apart and it SUCKS.
