Hi Lon, I have been doing pretty good. Enbrel is going well too. Since you asked...  My doctor says I reached 180 pounds, which isn't that heavy, except to short people like me. Brenda traded off her red high mileage car, for another red high mileage car, which overheated the day after she bought it. (wait this gets better!) It was repaired for free by the dealer and has been doing well ever since. Oddly enough, overheating was the reason why we decided to trade in our car lol. We were upfront to the dealer about the other car's overheating problem, which makes me feel even better inside. Bucket seats and sunroofs make me happy enough to go for rides. They almost convinced me to drive it in the parking lot. Maybe tomorrow if it isn't too hot outside. Take care Lon, James

James,
I sure hope you feel good enough to do some driving.
You might try flushing your radiator.. or changing the antifreeze... or the thermostat...
I suddenly put on more weight. I think I need to get a better diuretic, cause I also have more trouble breathing
Nice to see you James.

For those who are follwing this...
I am now on a better diuretic, I was not using my inhaler enough. So I am beginning to exercise more than I was.
But I do miss my dog. I know I will never feel great, but I do think I am a blessed man and will continue to do everything I can to stay alert and be effective

Jan,
are you kidding me.
Wow a friend, indeed. I am a bit weathered right now - thank you!
Let me know if I can help you any time??
Storm coming in, so I will have snow to scoop.
How are you doing, and what are you doing to keep busy.

Beloved,
An update, tho no one has posted.
There are days when i can feel every bone and joint, because of the pain But I am able to work, I can walk the dog twice a day and i am ble to scope a bit of manure'. So allin all I am thankful for what I have, the blessings I enjoy and I look to the future with a desire to be effective and to change my world. Let's pray for each other, ok?
It did not freeze here, last night, firs time this year...
