Get well. Shlt happens for everyone during their life. But we all bounce back for the positive. Just look at it as a test to your life.

Way to keep a positive outlook on life. It sounds like you stepped into a huge pile of it.

David,

Praying the lord give you some Sonshine! And I agree with Killy go wash your mouth out, a positive attitude goes a long way in taking a bad taste away [goldtooth]

Praying your travails are over and you are heading for better times. Heal quick and start spending time with that bow. You certainly are due.

I'm glad your feeling a bit better. I had the same thing happen to my freezer. Daughter unplugged it to use the shop vac on her car and forgot to plug it back in. What a horrid smell, and waste. Never did get the smell to go away. Stay positive like you are, it gets better. Bows are like dogs, totally devoted and will stay at the ready just for you when your ready. Change your handle to lucky. [Smile]

What a run of bad luck, you have a great attitude about it though. I totally sympathize with the back issues...been there, had the surgery, constant struggle.

Hope the future picks up, you've had enough bad luck you should be due for some good...

David,
Your story just cracked me up but felt the pain cause I've been there with the back problems L5 S1 with hardware still in, two buldging disks 2 and 3 and a reattached right hand from a log splitter...Tentions removed from my left leg to get feeling in my hand,hernia,and another operation..The freezer problem I had a few times and that will just down right "Make you loose your groceries from your gut pouch"....Best thing to do is COWBOY UP and get deeper boots or chest waders cause like you said s@#$ keeps happening...God Bless and that's why we have T.P. to clean up all the mess... [biglaugh] [thumbsup]

I pray for relief for your back...and that soon you can get to know your new bow...

Thanks brother. [campfire]

Well that about says it all right there. There's been times when i've had my share of "s@#$ happens" And sometimes ya wonder how much more you can take......... Sounds like you can take more then I can, thats for sure.
