Some day you’ll be old like me……oh wait, you already are!

Ouch! Dang man, that one stung a little bit.

Try as they did, and after being violated by not just one, not two, but three pretty nurses, two different times, they have not been successful at removing the partial blockage.

Hmmmm, somehow I suspect you of having orchestrated that partial blockage!

I've been very busy and not following the forum very much this past week having house guests all week. It's been just today I learned of your health scare. Upon first reading of @Jim K post I was shocked but also certain that you were still on top of the green since I'd seen your sling post earlier.

I'm feeling much better about how you are doing now. I know you are a determined tough guy and you will be bouncing back quickly. Take care of yourself and keep your eye on the squirrel hunting you have to do coming up. It'll keep you going and improving.

Thanks, Cruiser.

Things appear to be getting a little better the last couple of days. Energy increasing more and more. Eating is a problem but I'll survive.

According to the weather forecast, another week of cold, cloudy and wind here for the most part. Tomorrow is supposed to be severe clear, low winds but in the teens in the morning and not over 30* all day. Its the only halfway decent day of the week. Not sure if I'm ready to go out just yet, still a bit one the weak side, but we shall see.

Due to my unfortunate situation, as well as some other factors, it appears as if I might have conceded and defected. Wife ordered me one of those.........cough, cough...............Oh my, how it hurts to type this..............cough, cough........Cheater Sticks. If I want to get back out there and squirrel hunt, now that I have lost most all of my squirrel woods, I'm going to have to take it easy for a while. So no marching up and down steep grades.

Oh Lawdy, what's the world coming to. Everything is so whacked out of proportion. The irony of defeat. I shall never be the same. Its going to require some mighty strong willpower to get over this one.

Hey, ETipp, it's ok, git the sticks if it
Helps git you back in the timber , might get me some, send me some pics of the sticks, you too Jim K,
(We are talking about shooting sticks?). Any way it's back to work
This morning, and I'm dread'n it.
Have a great Day, 10Spot

If it gets you back in the game, I'd go with the sticks. And I'd bet you have the will power to get through this.

Ed, take it easy. Give yourself some time.
As far as Cheater Sticks, go for it. If it keeps ya in the woods shooting squirrels with Mr. C. Then so be it. I see no problem in it.

You'll still be Ole ETipp. That will never change....

Best to ya Ed.

I like to move through the timber slow and listen for them barking then set and watch. I use my .36 J. Garner flintlock rifle, loaded with 40gr. Goex FFFg
