Hi All!

[Marvin]

No I haven't wandered off and gotten lost in the cyber woods.......

I've been seeing doctors, going to court, and thinking (unprintable) thoughts.

The doctor's are saying I'm now officially a cripple/disabled. (What I think can't be said on the internet!)

They also decided that I'm not worth retraining, but that's another story........

So far, I'm stubbornly out to prove to the doctors (and myself), that they're wrong!

Well, the snow is coming down here, so let me close this by saying:

The news of my death/disability are a misquote!

Take Care Everyone,

Marvin

I love an optimist!
You prove to everyone you can do anything you put your mind to!
Keep your chin up and remember what Eleanor Rososevelt said, Nobody can make you feel inferior without your permission!
And since you didn't give it, keep on fighting them!
You go, hon!

Is this the case of being an optimist, or someone so Punchy they don't know when to fall down............LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I damaged three of the lumbar discs (L5, L4, L3) in my lower back. They waited until right before the court date to inform me that I can't teach the Martial Arts (I can't get beaten up by my kids!!!!), I can't make furniture (or Tarot boxes!), I can lift a total of 50 lbs....... total. (Hey Ladies, want to go Weight Lifting, You will all win!!!!!! LOL!!!!!)

In Real Life terms, I can't lift a box of Tarot decks, etc........ common everyday things like changing a tire on my new truck, are history.......

I walk with a pronounced limp. Soon I'll walk with a cane........ Then it's challenging my mom to drag race with wheel chairs......... LOL!!!!!!!!

Stubborn I am..........

Good things:

I can still (within limits) practice Yoga/Chi Kung.....
I can still use a computer........
I can still spoil Boo Boo (my Furry Feline Companion!!!!)
I can still be the bringer of surprises to the OTZ!!!!!!!

(Watch the Forum, Richard has agreed to my springing a nice suprise on everyone!!!!)

Take Care,

Marvin
