Venting, what a Rough Last 7 Days..
I swear, sometimes I wonder if I wasn't meant to be a Country Song writer..
As some know, the Lady that I've been dating ending up in the hospital the night before my big Swap-Meet last week, course I was still pretty sick to, then I found out that one of the places were I had some cars & "stuff" stored was sold, and I only had a few days to get everything out, a person who I have known for more than half my life, and considered a very good & close friend stabbed me in the back, and twisted the blade, I was screwed out of one my vintage track cars ,parts & some shop equipment (that was my compensation for putting around $250K, CASH in their pocket ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Damn, Byron...please tell your lady that MS does alter your life...but it doesn't end it. Cindy & I have been married 37 years & counting. She was diagnosed with MS before our 3rd anniversary.
Friend stabbing you in the back? We've all been there. Write a song about it, making more than he cost ya... Your health issues? Listen to the doc... Finally the loss of the kitty...damn, that's gotta hurt! All here who have lost pets know that...

I'm sorry this has all piled on you. Be strong, handle the urgent stuff first, let the other stuff slide, and call on your friends.

Sorry, hope you feel a little lighter by letting it out. Listen to your Doc, remember your kitty and love your woman....things have a way of working out man. (oh, and save some room for forgiveness for your old friend, maybe he has his own demons to wrestle with, life if way to short to be angry about things you can't change)

Holy moly, Byron. Goodness, it has been rough. I am not really good at saying things that would make you feel better because many of those things were out of your control. If I was there, I would give you a big hug. I am a good hugger.

Damn, I'm sorry to hear this.
MS is a hard one. Joanna has had it for 15 years and it's taking it's toll on her. Joanna is 47 and needing a wheel chair due to it. I'm going throught some crap too. Anyone need a forklift or a tone of boltless racks. I'm shutting down my warehouse. 7 good years 1 wiped them all out. Jim

Sorry Byron, that sucks. On the upside it sounds like you're due for some good luck.

Damn Byron troubles do seem to come in waves. Condolences bro. Do what my grandfather used to tell me to do "just breathe boy, if you can breathe you can think, if you can think you can move on".
