An update on my condition and what's going on in my life. [View all]

Things are getting better, not as much pain anymore, able to sneeze, cough, yawn without dropping to the floor in pain, so that's a good thing.

Now, on to my Harley, sold it to a friend for $6,000.00 and in the process of buying my dream car, a 1957 Chevy Nomad that's had a frame off restoration, its not stock, it has a modern LS 4 engine with a modern 6 speed manual transmission, Ford 9" Detroit locker rear end, digital gauges, and a whole lot of other modern upgrades but it still retains that 1957 look.

I'm going to take a sabbatical for a few months and concentrate on life.
Everyone, Happy New Years and I'll see you on the flip side.
