Re: Totally OT/Brownbagger Vacation Update
Yeah, I got juiced a week ago. More on tap for a week from now.
My only real complaint was a couple cases of night-time incontinence, which happens when I overdo the Metamucil. I hate that. Had a little fatigue the first day of logging, but I just took it "easy" and was back to my old pace within a day or two.
Gotta run--more logs to skid.

Went in for surgery for a cyst on my bladder, and they found colon cancer growing on the outside of the colon. Got to have two surgeries at the same time! Stage 3, one node involved.

Deer repellant work shirts! With our particular discrepancies, I imagine the pants could be just as repellant

The little Husqvarna cartoon guy is peeing on a Stihl saw on the sticker on the back window of my pickup.
J/K. They're both excellent brands. I just happen to be into Huskies at the moment. Used to be a Stihl Man, back in the day. Both companies know what they're doing, and do it well.

Re: Totally OT/Brownbagger Vacation Update
I like OT posts, they give another look at life, there is no need (although it IS cancer forum) to talk just about cancer.
Thinking of all procedures and surgeries you had - wow, most of the completely helathy people can not do what you are doing......
