Yup. Got it working.
And I'm working for a small home appraisal business. It's starting to get interesting as I learn more about it and get to do more than data entry. Who knows...it may turn into a new career. I think I'm done working for hospitals and mental health agencies...just totally burnt out on that.

As for your health...take it easy. I know you may be getting bored, but going back to work before you're healed may not be the best idea. I suggest you look at the situation as if someone else were asking the questions and think about what you would tell that other person.
You are a wise one, Glow...take your own advice.
I think you may be on to something with the appraisal business. I used to courier a lot of paperwork for one and he explained a bunch to me. I was tempted to get the training so I could have a new career outside of mental health but I fell into truck driving instead. Someone needed to take over our truck while Stan was down and out for hip replacement and that someone was me! Necessity is the mother of invention and I have a new career whether I wanted it or not!

Wisdom? Thanks for the vote of confidence. I know I am not ready just by the amount of pain I get from the exercises. I am still very hopeful that I will be good as I was before the accident, maybe even better.

I say we all find jobs being boof heads. Surely has to be money in it somehow. I'm going to someday win the lottery I don't play and then we will never have to work again. Or something like that.

Smooches y'all
Boof head? What are the qualifications? I will certainly apply for the job.

My physical therapist is a great person but her thinking seems to be as concrete as a driveway! You may have noticed that humor is a large part of my communication style and she just doesn't get it. I will give her abstract thinking as a Christmas gift, I think. She just looks at me when I make a humorous (at least I think it's humorous!) and says "I don't know what that means" or she responds with a totally appropriate response. Example: You don't use Downy on these towels. (they are as rough as sandpaper). Her response: "I really don't know, I don't wash the towels." Well alrighty then! I think I am talking to Sheldon Cooper!!! (Big Bang Theory Sheldon).

Humor is the best way to get through this crazy life, she needs a dose of it. Doctor Always orders

Supposed to have the same thing, but I may be yoyo . . .

step-son went in for gall bladder surgery this morning. Wife didn't hear anything, so she went to the hospital this afternoon to see what's going on.

You got some great form there, Mr. Angler!

Not me, that's my son. Notice the lack of back hair. Didn't mean to deceive y'all.

That backpack he's wearing is a dry bag that my wife's friend won in a contest. She gave it to me, since I'd been wanting one to use for fishing. I made him wear it out in The river so I could send the company a pic of it getting put to use instead of a pic of it sitting on a table just before the winner sells it on eBay. They liked the pic so much they want to put it on their website.

It really is a great pic. I guess turn about is fair play. You got it free and they get to use your picture for free!

I think he's going to need every bit he can get.
And, I used to get a better "buzz" on the stuff on the opposite side of the spectrum . . . .. .. :bunny:
Yeah, they would have been my drugs of choice if I were to have gotten into drugs more than booze. I liked to be UP rather than down.

Yesterday we had a new windshield put in the van. The old one had more cracks than I have seen in one piece of glass. Anyway, the guy doing the install has a problem with drinking and somehow we got around to talking recovery. When he left, I gave him Stan's phone number should he want to talk (in the "program" they suggest same sex mentors, especially in the early days). He said "We were supposed to meet today". Don't know if I helped him or not. Sounds like he hasn't hit his "bottom" yet but every bit of encouragement on the way has the potential of planting a seed that may bloom later on when he needs it most. Gave me a warm fuzzy in my cockles.

Did you know that was one of the pre alzheimer's signs, the complete failure to get abstract humor?

I take two 30mg Ir Adderall a day, the difference is that I look more like the jumping bunny if I forget to take it.
The other day my buddy read my empty bottle n said 'damn bro, I lnew you had issues but... Damn bro.'

Saint, are you really a saint? If so you may have some issues with dirty Betty and the rest of us knuckle heads. If not, how do you feel about goats, groping, leg wraps, and air fryers?

Sounds like your stepmother had probable cause. Maybe? Just a lil?

No worries, we'll still whack her knee caps for ya.

It's actually Saint Skinny the Sinner goats are great, better if they faint... Always hoping for groping.... Life Ain't crap without a weekly leg wrap... But I'd be a liar if I said I knew much about air fryers... Dirty betty, I used to date a Fat Sweaty Betty... Must be a coincidence
