Haven't had time to write. Guess that's a good thing. I had JJ, on East street across from Goodwill, put in new ball joints & shocks. Then got the front end aligned by Tiretown. Then back to JJ for a leaking rear End & new plugs.
I still eat at the Burger shack, but lately have been going to Boss' Barbecue.
there ribs are great! It's the only restaurant I have been in that has very good potato salad & slaw. Hamburgers are pretty good, too. More lovely, efficient waitresses.
Didn't raise a lot of money for MDA when I was in jail. But it all helps.

Two years since I raised my prices, but I now have a $25 mininum bench charge.
I've been going to the Fitness Center for about two years. I exercise in the heated pool & soak in the hot tub. They have added a Hydro Massage. You lay on a bed & warm water pressure massages your back. You don't get wet. I think it helps with circulation & will probably relieve muscle spasms. Thank goodness I haven't had one in years. They now have better control over water temperature. Shortly, part of the center will be open 24 hours a day.

Bob,

First, I am sorry for you loss! My husband and I divorced two years ago (though that is no comparrison to the death of a spouse) I know it can be an adjustment. I couldnt imagine lossing someone that close to me. I pray you and yours are getting along okay!

The fitness center you are talking about is that at Fitness Unlimited? I have fibromylgia and i was thinking about going somewhere like that for the heat treatment. I have been in alot of pain this winter.

how much do you charge just to look at a computer. I have one I dont use any more because i am not sure what is wrong with it.

Yes, that's the same Fitness Center. On repairing computers, the minimum charge is $25.00. $75 is usually the top charge, if there are no bad parts.
I was diagnosed as having Fibromyalgia. Every time I went to the doctors office he gave me a new drug or shot. I finally decided I wasn't being helped & stopped all pain medication. My pain is about the same. It's bad, but I don't want the drugs. I believe the doctor was just a pill pusher & not one of the good guys.

I decided I was macho enough to drive to the Fittness Center. After all I never missed work in thirty years because of weather. My street, Derby Circle was clear. On Timbermist I slipped a little, same on Hicks. Slipped a little on Alcoa, then started up the hill. Got halfway. Some people passed me very carefully, then a very nice Young man, named David Lane, parked & walked up to my truck. He said he had a new tow rope & would pull me.
He managed to get me turned around. David gave me his phone number & said to call if I needed help. I did OK, until I turned on Hicks & got half way up the hill. I called David and he came running. He towed me up the hill, unhooked & followed me home, where I will stay for awhile. David is a mechanic by trade & works on mobile homes.
Thank you David for helping an old man. I'm going to work on computers.
By the way I have an older, Windows 98 computer, to give away.
