bobby - 11 Feb 2007 16:37 GMT Well, not too many replies on my re-intro post. Don't be a-scared of me, I'm mostly just an old dead head, estimated prophet, looking for the golden shore. I have had/battled hep for as long as I can remember, and my memory is sorta like a train, gettin smaller as it pulls away. I can be as serious as a heart attack when need be, a PTSD -Round eye blues, first responder, but the nightmares ain't worth it, and I have already blew the varicies in my tummy/esophogus, so I try to keep life on the lite side. Don't worry, if your hurtin, I'll never put ya down, and if ya want some good alt-country music by the Ragman himself, drop me note.
We have had about a foot of snow this week, and I just found a music site and down loaded about 6 hours of Jerry and Bobby from 1967. Guess I'll sit next to the back porch door, watch the birds at bird feeder, and be totally grateful. Bobby
dBo - 11 Feb 2007 19:12 GMT Ah darn, Bobby, in the good ole days 6 feet of snow made a New England Beer cooler - open the front door and shove them into the snow ;) This morning we were greeted with the forecast that we should get a foot or two of snow on Wednesday - we gave literally had none all winter, so it was inevitable. I know that lost brain feeling - love the song "Run away train, never comin back..." Hear The Birds, Bobby, Hear The Birds....
Thip - 11 Feb 2007 20:05 GMT I ain't a-scared. I'm just a-scatterbrain, that's all. I don't post much any more, but I read regularly.

There are lots of us lutking around here but the winter makes us chronically grumpy I think. I enjoy your posts. I feel awful about your wife. I think my cousin may have neurological Lyme. The diagnosis is not definitive, I guess. What a hardship.
I distract my self with creative efforts too. Sometimes it is the only way to move forward when I am stuck in an emotional ditch.

I hear ya out there, Bobby, and I hear your beloved is going through a long tough stretch, and I can only tell you, having spent the afternoon at the 60th birthday party for one of my wife's (6!) sisters, no matter how tough it gets, life is worth every second above ground that we get.
Best wishes to you and yours, and I sure as hell hope your spouse catches a break with her ordeal soon...
Cheers

bobby - 12 Feb 2007 13:23 GMT Well, thank you for the nod. Feel like Stymie, "Part of the gang again". Sittin here listenening to my demo cd, thinking it took 45 years, but the soul of the colored blues players on my corner when I grew up, have finally grasped my soul, and come out my harps. "Feel so downtrodden, like a horse shoe on a losing mare". Bring my wife to the dentist today, she hasn't driven in close to 2 years now. Maybe by the end of the week we will know whether or not she'll get the infusions. I have stepped up my acupuncture to once every 3 weeks, as my system has been shutting off before my regular 4 week appointments. Used to pray that the hep would take me and that the force would leave my wife alone. After seeing the way my buddy died, I don't want that anymore. We are both gonna make it. Friday, if no positive medical intervention is found, we are calling Bernie Sanders office. He's really a good guy to have on your side if your sick or a vet. Thats Veteran, he may like animals too.
"I'm a river flowing straight into a flood, a fistful anger exploding into rage" Winter might be comin Wed....We could use a real storm to replace the footfull of flurries/sqauls we have had. Thank you friends for listeneng. Bobby
