On my feet again.....take it Willie!


Recommended Posts

I just can't wait to get on my feet again.........that's been my song now for six long weeks. I am finally bi-pedal again walking unassisted and only feeling slightly over 76 years old. I list to the right as my left ankle is still tender, but working again. I celebrated by cleaning up my shop and sanding on the Plymouth in hopes of someday painting. Tons to do, six weeks lost, but back at it again. Bless you Willie Nelson.

You'll be busier than a one legged man in a a$$ kicking contest once you get your sea legs! My Gramps always said " My body's been beat down, and I'm slower than dirt, but my mind lets me figure out how to get things done.

He passed away driving his combine during harvest at the tender age of 88 doing what he loved most, tending the earth.

So I have no doubt you will figure out your own pace and be cussin' in the garage before you know it!

Thanks for the encouragement and suggested restraint, you all sound like my wife! I wanted to clarify that I am not 76 years old, I am 54. I just feel like I"m 76................

welcome back Charlie, catch up work to do.

Just twisted my knee Friday (basketball) and it doesn't look too good.

Will see what the doctor has to say coming week.

Mind is too young for the body, I tried to get a steal I normally got but flet the knee turn (got the ball though hahaha).
