Welcome to November 2009!
If you have (or had) a birthday this month, I hope you enjoy your special day and make it a memorable one. Have fun, do something for yourself, and keep your friends and loved ones close to your heart.
What's going on in the truckchasing scene? Things have slowed down here at headquarters due to my health problems. In case you didn't know, in a matter of months, I got hit hard by diabetes and all sorts of complications from this unbelievable disease. What started as a bruise on my right hand from using power tools, quickly turned into a week-long hospital visit to have a dead chunk of flesh from inside my hand removed. (The bruise got infected, and wouldn't heal.)
The difficult part to this point has been learning to use my right hand again. Being right-handed made it all that difficult. I had to learn to write again, to draw, to type, etc. I should have made more of an effort to be ambidextrous. But, hey - hindsight bla bla bla.
Now I'm still fighting with my diabetes and it's resulted in a domino effect with the rest of my body. I've developed serious acid reflux that made me drop 25 pounds of mostly muscle mass. I keep getting this nasty thrush in my throat, that my doctor says is all due to my diabetes. He says once I get my numbers under control, all my ailments will resolve themselves.
But enough of my problems. I just wanted to give you guys an update.
Happy November, and please let me hear from you. Leave a comment or send me an email.

Het Tuff, sorry to hear about your illness. Hope things will improve. They have some great meds out for diabetics now. Just got back from a month long trip and trying to get caught up here. Hugz,
