    I think we've all been there, to one extent or another. I tried the "grab 'em and shake 'em" path more than once and all it ever got me was some lumps on my head and poor food for thirty days. A couple of times it was longer than thirty days. It doesn't do you any good.
    You have a business to run.

    Andover is about 60 miles ESE of me. The storms started setting up just east of Dodge City, and got really big just east of us. It's looking like that tornado took nearly the same path as the 1991 tornado did.

    I'm still around fellas, I started poking around back here a couple weeks ago. I needed a break from some stuff (covid pneumonia back in October put that on a fast track). Internet stuff was one of the first things I cut out.

    I sort of did something like that a few months ago Lol. Didn't get the cord in the holder all the way and bounced out along the way Bob tailing Syracuse back to the yard. By the time I got back it was no longer a plug and was shaped like a wedge from dragging on the groundo_O

    Energy-wise, I'm pretty close to 100%. Cold and dust/smoke still messes with how hard it is to breathe, worse than it did before the pneumonia. On those days I can get pretty tired pretty quick, if I'm not careful. The chest pain finally subsided the end of February. I had just about every test they could run to determine the cause and they couldn't find anything, including a cardiac related issue.
    The covid brain, brain fog or whatever term used to describe it, is still my biggest battle. Today, I can run numbers in my head or make a deal with no issues at all. Tomorrow, I'm liable to be dumber than the hammer on the bench and can't remember what we talked about yesterday. It's kind of a cross between being distracted by a squirrel running by and short term memory loss. Most of my long term memory still works ok.
    Thank You for asking.
