Always a difficult situation when healing up. I never listened to the doctors when I was younger but now that I am much older I am not as deaf.

HaHa!! Good way to put it.........part of the reason I have so much that needs fixin' was not so much the fact I wouldn't listen....just nevah asked any questions and let **** heal however...generally mad about what I had done to get injured. PITA to get old but lucky to have made it this far as silly as I was......
I'd say f that and go for it but here I sit with heat bag around my neck for an amazingly tweaked neck muscle.

Yep....Well......you know they say pain is a wonderful teacher.....guess I missed that memo...or...perhaps I'm just a slow learner..
I have always ignored the pain and carried on full speed ahead, the results of doing so are now slowly showing up, age has much to do with this.

Yep...well if you enjoy a rough lifestyle you're bound to get roughed up along the way. Mine was mostly from self imposed pain rather than pain visited upon me by others......generally held them off with fairly good success ......took a few thumpings over the years but prevailed many more tymes than not.....
steady diet of Advil and Tylenol for the past 5 days on this damn neck.
getting there though, probably good tomorrow

Rough n tough work and play all through life but the Enduro racing really put a beating on me.

This tyme off from dollah chasing whilst letting the thumb recover has given me the much needed tyme to get back to my firewood hauler/boat tow-er project that had stalled for much of the last year. This old Chebby reminds me of a lobstah.....the old shell was shed and she just grew another new one! Just finished the drivers side yesterday. Gonna set the rear body back on today, install the fender flares and shim it as needed to get the body lines straight......then I'll separate them again so when I shoot the two part epoxy with kevlar bed liner on the bottom 10" or so up the sides I can get in around to the back of the cab and front of the body. Bed liner says it'll be here tomorrow so perhaps she'll be ready for the road again by the weekend!! WOOT!!!
