Just saying hello
« on: December 28, 2012 - 12:34:25 AM »
Hi everyone.  I have been missing everything, everyone and all around me has been different than what I am use to for a while now.  I have been having a few med issues that has been bringing me down, then depression. I will admit, it hasnt been real easy, but I am getting better. 

Im also a little bumbed today as well. Today is the day my oldest brother died, my dad died on this date in 2010 and my mom died last mothers day.  I ended up burying all 3 of them together in the same plot. It was requested in the will. I was out in the cold today at the cemetary, just wanting to be with  them and to show my respect. 

Soon, I will be feeling better and will be posting, annoying, helping, and participating again. I have been off for 3 months now. I haven't did much work in my shop at all. Maybe 3 hrs in 3 months. To sore and dizzy.

I think about you guys quite often, well, very often..... I post a little on moparts, but for the most part I read. I am hoping 2013 goes better for me. I am kinda being forced into retirement.

Happy New Year everyone...... I still love you guys....ALAN

I just read over 17 pages here before this post.

Hey Alan,  :wave:

Things could be a lot worse. You could own a Chevelle, Camaro or a Firebird....

You and Peggy have a Happy New Year from Anna, Eric and I.

Give me a shout sometime. Talk to you soon,

Jim

Hi Alan,

Yes this tear has been a real downer.  Glad to hear that you are starting to feel better.  Keep your chin up and get Peggy to make you a great dinner.

I will call you soon (i found your number in my old phone).

Good to see you posting again Alan!  :clapping:

Are you planning on going to Carlisle this year? Sounds like you might have more time available in between drag strip runs in your "Toys"  :icon16:  :burnout:

If cudahunter drives by in a few weeks, maybe he can get your parts closer to you?  It would really save on shipping.

Brad, I don't know about what's ahead right now. I will say I want to go :woo: I want to bring my car and Don's car :2thumbs:
