Oh Yes, Selma I've done many things over the years to put food on the table. Some which hopefully will happen again soon. Some of my favorites are custom wrapped fishing rods not just a rod but wrapped artistically, woodworking hey we love making all sorts of things but my personal love is using different contrasting woods to make a few pieces of wood into an artistic useful thing. Most people don't even know that there are over 300,000 know species of wood in the world. Or for that matter how many species of each different sort of tree there are, like one of my many favorites is Purpleheart. Down in the southern states, in the UV, this wood turns a vibrant deep purple. Yet even combining different pieces of purpleheart can give the eyes a treat because there are 27 different known varieties of just this tree and they are each different shades of purple! Before loosening my legs I um well played with electronics for folks and worked on clocks for fun. Worked as an electrician.... miss that more than anything even more than my legs. Racing, 4 wheeling well they used to be fun now that sounds like work. :-) Fishing now that's still fun.......... hummmm must have chiari as I totally forgot where this was going. Oh well, I’ll post it for your laugh until we figure out how and which Dr gets to have the first capisian lp injection.

BTW- Lathe, yes, that is one of the most relaxing things. Looking at an old stump or tree and picturing what's inside and then when you see the grain pop... wow! Now selma you said you where going to hold me to being good! This is not going to do it! Must not remind me of the two lathes and all the exotic wood setting out in the shop. Many bd ft of hardwood just waiting.... :-)

Wow...I didn't know u did woodworking...my Uncle was a wood carver..did beautiful work...was going to carve something for me and he got sick and has since past away.....but he made so many things...I love the smell of wood...do u have a lathe? They fasinate me...but please wait till u r better to get into working....I know how hard it is to not be creative when u r a creative person.....

I hope the ride got all that out...keep the window open...lol

Hummm..... wonder what a little cayenne pepper in an LP would do for the sensations in their head... Also we must find a substance that will show on their MRI as an incidental finding..... That way when we transport this substance into their noggin it won't show on an MRI...

Actually I"m allergic to most antibiotics and some opiads. But perhaps my biggest allergy these days is Chiari and the stupid Be still take it easy thing we're supposed to do post op. Don't worry Selma I'm being good, just don't feel like it today. I've run a woodworking shop on the side with my boys for a couple years. The last few days my mind has been screaming to go do something creative. My wife is saying "we'll I'll help you" she means it but .... some of these dense exotic hardwoods that I use are quite heavy. She can't lift em and right now I know I shouldn't. Thus we'll just work on a way to make this virus a reality! Well actually no guess it's time to pick up my son, maybe I'll ride along and get this dastardly deed out of my head. :-)

wolf  that is too great.......there is one way  get them to take topamax and induce migraines in them.     and while were at it  stuff a sock in their foreman magnum and pump there head with extra csf.    

my husband got his first migraine the other day and I think he suddenly got a new appreciation for how I feel.   empathy over sympathy  alwayas better


and I think I have developed an alergy to house work.   Yesterday I cleaned the entire downstairs and today I am bad bad bad.........dizzy, pain, pressure, weakness, blury vision with no focus.  (good thing I can type without loooking  lol)

so  I would have to say no more house work.....
