Your probably part Viking anyway Mike so it's good that your sharing hops fortification with Harald Fairhair himself.
You must be getting quite a routine going now at G F Strong.
On the occasions that I've worked in the park across the street I've seen many an unfortunate soul being wheeled around after some horrible accident with no hope of ever walking again. I'm so happy for you that you won't be going down that road,and alot has to do with your awesome attitude you've had since the beginning,I don't know whether I could have stayed as positive as you have. So impressed. Hope to visit soon as we will be over in Vancouver alot.
I'm suprised the posse hasn't scoped out the buildering around GF Strong yet with their rabid thirst for climbing,why stop at the games room wall.

She's a keeper if ever there was a keeper.. You are too. Best of all .. already together.
Stupid ass societal customs..You crazy kids are already there
Be happy.. be sad .. be together and let the rest flow away as irrelevant unless it brings joy to both.
For now you keep pushing on.. be cautious of the drugs but not too cautious..push hard in your therapy..push hard in your rest.. push hard on drinking water and eating well.. sleep hard .. work hard.. heal well.. love deeply!

You got that right bud!!!! Thats why no hurry on my part to make it "legal". She knows i got her back 100% and i know she has mine!! ;)
The drugs are perfect now. Just enough to keep me feeling normal, not crazy. Killing it in rehab, wasn't nearly as tired today as last week!! Stoked!! Hella stoked!! ;)

Nice work John! Thanks!
anders sure seems to be a damn good fella.
Anders is awesome! He's endured way too much teasing over the years and still remains super positive and upbeat. Only knock on him is his chosen profession!! ;) It seems he puts even that to good use tho!
and you mike have inherited a new emotional horizon.
wellness is yours.
I seem to have connected on higher level lately for sure. Honesty and openness are the keys to happiness it seems. I always knew that though, i just never made such a public spectacle of myself before ;)
It looks like you are drinking Anders under the table!!!!
Hugs to Sandra...lucky girl....luckier you!!!!
No doubt i could, although our tolerances are probably fairly similar. I would have the advantage simply because of my size ;)
I am lucky for certain to have a partner as beautiful and trust worthy as her. Funny, she said last week that she felt left out, because i spent a lot of time talking about all my visitors, but i don't think she was wanting this much attention!! ;)
On the occasions that I've worked in the park across the street I've seen many an unfortunate soul being wheeled around after some horrible accident with no hope of ever walking again.

I am very lucky. A lot of it has to do with the nature of my injury. If i was not wearing my impact shorts, i shudder to think of the damage that would have occurred or if i would still even be here today??!!!
I am very glad to be walking again and the light at the end of the tunnel grows ever closer! At first i was unsure how quickly i would get to this point, but the steady gains have continued and the feeling in my left leg is returning which is simply amazing!!
I'm suprised the posse hasn't scoped out the buildering around GF Strong yet with their rabid thirst for climbing,why stop at the games room wall.
Shhhh anders and i had some first ascents planned ;)
big bump for big mike.
Thanks cowpoke. I know i've been slacking this week.. I'm just so tired from busting my ass all day i can't write much ;)

I stopped by for a visit yesterday and Mike was in the middle of his Occ therapy session. They were going for a walk over to Safeway, no big deal...
