    I’m still alive!!! It’s been a very challenging month, with work, all the tornadoes,and my health. I have a ruptured disk in my back, my truck got rolled in a tornado, and work still sucks. but I’m still alive and I still have church.

    Had the ruptured dysk before hand, but it didn’t help it any! The truck rolled over once then landed on its top in someones yard. I had to what for the fire dept. to get the door open so I could get out. But i was not hurt at all.

    OMG… thank goodness you were not seriously injured! Does that have anything to do with your ruptured disc? So sorry about all that!

    Hang in there, Deisel! Hope you will have better times SOON. It does sound like you’ve had more than your share of difficulties lately. What is the plan for your back?

    Hey Dieseldoc… So sorry about this very rough patch you’re going through. Just glad you weren’t in your truck when it was rolled (at least I hope you were not).

    We had a tornado here in our area of SW VA also and lots of people were affected and some did not survive. It’s been a tough spring in too many places. When I see the grief of so many in Missouri and Alabama, it definitely puts things into perspective.

    Hope you find some relief for your back soon. Glad you’re still kickin’!


    Best wishes… Catherine
