Thanks Tat! I started my day out with a good workout at the gym.
Mike, could you pm your FB address to me, please?
I'm practicing with Bob tonight. (Bob is the other half of my acoustic cover duo,"Feral".) I stopped by his business the other day and we grabbed lunch. He wants to find a bassist and lead guitarist, have me switch to drumkit and switch from acoustic duo to more of a rock band. I'm not sure how I feel about it.
Bob has a good voice and is a great guy to hang with. We are friends besides this project together. The acoustic duo format is a good fit in my opinion as we are the only guitar/percusion duo in this area. It made us different. Also, just the two of us has been drama free. Playing drumkit again in a band situation would be fun in it's own way, but I think we'd be just another cover band. He has never been part of a full band and I don't think he realizes what it takes to get a full band polished. Practicing together has never been his strong suit. Luckily, if he gets his part down, I've always been able to find my part quickly and make it work.
I'm sure that the subject will come up again tonight.

Good luck I sure miss having a drummer. It has been 25 years since I have had a steady drummer.
I hesitate to post this...
The amount of bad things happening to those around me that I love has been hard to even comprehend. Jackie hasn't been feeling well and went to the doctor the other day. They just called her, they think that she could have a blood clot. I'm gathering stuff together and will be Richmond bound shortly.
I'd ask you to keep us in your thoughts, but it's been non-stop since December 7th. I can't breath I'm so upset.

I am so sorry, Mike. Stay strong man, I remain optimistic that things WILL get better for you guys.
You have to play the cards you are dealt because there is a reason for all. Remember that the greater the sorrow felt, the greater the capacity to love...all things equal out. There is a balance.
Mike, I'm more and more convinced that, a long time ago, one of your ancestors had to have either p!$$ed off the village witch or desecrated Tutankhamen's tomb. An ancient curse is the only reason I can think of for having it so rough for so long! 
Just trying to keep you smiling, bro. Hang in there.

Oh my goodness...love and good flowing thoughts coming your and Jackie's way. You have my number if there's anything I can do, and you and Jackie are certainly in our thoughts.
Let the FedEx stalking begin..it's out for delivery!
Stalking my UPS man for these
Yay!
today is turning out bad for me...
a doe jumped right out in front of me... I am banged up, and my bike is not looking so good. I got it out of the ditch, and limped it home... I was worried about it, but now that the shock is wearing off, I think it came out better than I did

I have some good news. Jackie's test came out negative, so she doesn't have a blood clot. I'm packed was ready to head out the door.
She wants me to stay here for now.

Crashing sucks. I concur with what Mike said here:
Glad that it isn't a clot. Do they know why she was feeling ill yet?
I don't think I am going anywhere, for a while. Both ankles are sprained and swelling, and my right shoulder is not moving so well
I live 30 miles outside of town, and the drive to get there would be hell
