We all have various levels of pains and aches and bad parts, but,
fortunately, some of us have been helped a lot to resume a fairly
normal life. I am doing quite well - even went back to work on
contract and am enjoying it. I still want to retire, but right now,
they need me to train a new tooling design engineer. The other one
who had replaced me before, had to move to Florida, so when my former
boss asked, with desperation in his voice, "Are you sure you don't
want to come back?" I said to make me an offer - $30 an hour and I
work four hours a day, from 10 to 2 which means no traffic (which had
become horrendous out where I worked with new shopping centers and
housing developments.) They got a new one, who is young and little
experience, but very smart and quick to get things. I still want to
retire and be home all the time, but the three days I work are
actually kind of fun. I work at a machine gun manufacturing plant; I
use CAD and design fixtures, gages, and tools. It's a lot of fun to
go out into the plant and see them making parts using something I
designed! I had been there for 25 years, when I had my seizures last
winter in January.
Anyhow, this was to welcome you, Bettye, (with or without the e?), not
to tell my life's story. Due to the work, though, I've not been
posting for a while.

God didn't promise us
that life would be fair.
If it were, who would try
for the stars?
