MOST of the snow is gone here and it's certainly all off the roads but I'm laid up and I've been off work for over a week. Might be off a few more yet.

They're in the process of patching the big potholes and sweeping the streets. Hope to have my baby out soon.

With the warm weather almost here and so much to do outside, I don't need this right now...      :banghead:

Nope, not roller blading.    :D

It's a bit of a long story but I have a something that's caused my left elbow, right shoulder and lower back to seize up along with numbness down the outside of my right leg. Can hardly walk. Spent March 30th in the hospital while they ran a crap load of tests, blood, urine, cat scans and numerous X-rays. The spinal tap or "lumbar probe" was the worst.    :gaah:     They can see from the tests that I have an infection of some sort but they can't find anything.

Coming along very slowly as it's tiny bit better than it was a few days ago but I have more tests scheduled next week. Maybe after that it'll all be good.

Hope that you will soon be on the mend and will be able to get your car out sooner than later.

Feel better Bob.

I had a spinal tap attempted once.  I recall little actual pain but an unbearable discomfort.  I insisted they stop and find another way to figure out if I'd managed to get meningitis or just go ahead and let me die.  Kudos on making it through that!

SB, sorry to hear you're not feeling yourself.  Hopefully you'll feel a lot better once you get behind the Sol's wheel again.
