Chiefie- dont make me cross the line and give you a wedgie! Ok i see your point but i posted in the previous post what was up. Im on the level and i am fixing this screwup. You should never have to question my integretiy. Id tell you straight up if i ripped the dude off or not. And i didnt. Just bad situation and i am gonna fix it, you got my word on that. I believe in karma and i now have a stronger relationship with god and i dont want to tick him off. Yes i found a new relationship with him, its funny what a near death experience will do to you. But please rest assured, I didnt do this to that guy but i am gonna make it right with him, i dont like seeing people getting ripped off. And myself personally would never do that. Thanks for trusting me CHIEF!
I missed you guys alot, i found a deeper more personal relationship with god and it was because you guys. We had a chat and I think he decieded it wasnt my time to go yet.
It is so nice to be home, and my jenny is such a wonderful woman. She took care of so much while i was down. i think i will keep her. I am planning to do something real nice for her when i get better.
I am trying to read threw all these posts and there is a lot.
Kieth- thank you so much i forgot i even sent it off. You are so kind for helping me on the engine i just couldnt figure it out.
Well its time to eat and now i have to eat a little healthier and jenny is making sure of that, she told me if i scare like that again shes gonna get me. Lol well guys and gal's i will catch you later today.
Take care on another and god bless!
Morning all. "Hot air from the South." Keeps you Yanks bogged down as you are not as strong as us Southerners. Hot and humid but NO RAIN. Off to Ekerds. 75% off on all their named products. Rite Aid has bought them out. Would not be surprised they closed the store in Roseyville. Not many folks there. CVS seems to take all the business [been here for years].
Laz [and SA, Jim A], number of total posts means nothing. Lots of folks on here don't have the extra time or started later so their numbers are nopt high. Does not mean they are not needed and their advice is not good.
Speaking of that New England Wise Cracker, hope he has a good Baptism and woild you believe this, he is going to be the God Father. All he wants is the good food.
SEND RAIN. Later

Zeke,
Glad to hear that your doing well! I couldn't stop worrying about you while I went to work last night. It's good to see you back.
ZEKE! You really had us scared and praying hard - Guess it worked. So very glad to hear from you and also another THANKS to Jenny for keeping us updated.
With your hypoglycemia - You need to try to keep regular hours, sleep, eat regular meals, limit your carbs, increase your protein and stay away from concentrated sweets (fruits, juices, sodas, cookies, pies, etc.) Six small meals a day would be good. Also need to avoid caffeine, alcohol and tobacco. Search the web for advice and information from a reputable site.
GLAD YOU ARE BETTER! Snail mail on it's way!

Started the day disappointed. No big deal.
Well the good news is that I leave for the Curve again in 7 minutes.

I'd say stay on, Laz. You have a lot still to contribute. Me on the other hand? I never contribute anything useful. Just smart alec remarks and lame jokes. I'll miss you all. Parting IS such sweet sorrow...

Good Morning from Blueberryhill....
It is a sunny 62 degrees. Going up to 93, today, with sunshine all day. It's gonna be hot.
Zeke......Good to hear you are at home and doing better. Jenny has kept us posted on your condition. You are in our prayers.
Today, I have to finish mowing the grass. Had a drive belt break, yesterday, and after a few hours , of finding one, got the mower fixed. Hope to mow this morning, before the afternoon heat. Grass didn't grow too much, due to only 2 days of rain showers.
I have started a few projects on signs, for the layout, with a very talented friend of mine. Need to spend some time working on train scenery and cleaning.
Well, Dining Car has arrived and is ready for breakfast. " Points west " has slept in late today, I think. See ya later on SPF.
Y'all have a great Sunday.

I'M BACK
Missed you chief, I really did. I missed all of you and wow I had no idea thier would be so many folks that cared. You guys and gals are so wonderful. I thought about all of you constantly. And well I am home just released tonight about an hr ago I couldnt wait to get on the computer to write you all. I was on my way home yesterday or day before i can recall, kinda all blurry. But i had a little problem yesterday and I am fixed, Um i think. I was leaking brain fluid and well it really freak jenny out. And the dr rushed me in and assesed me i went unconcious and i woke up and i felt better. Something to do with the tumor, which is gonna be removed in a cpl weeks when my chest heals up which feels alot better too. They told me the details but its not coming to me right now and poor jenny is sleepin, shes been an angel and been threw alot with me. Great gal. So i thought my breastbone had been cracked but wasnt, i was just cut threw, which is better and alot faster recovery. Thank god for that one. So the pace maker was a success and i am feeling so much better its really nice.Cant wait for the tumor to be out of me. Which i was told was a 1-3 day hospital stay. That music to my ears cuz i will tell you the food sucks and i got all the older nurses, they were really nice but oh nvm......... So i am home taking it super easy. Have a 2lb wieght limit which is rough cuz 2 lbs isnt much. I have been poked and stabbed and i had enough. Turns out i am now hypoglacemiac ( spell?) So i have to poke my self and draw blood every so often. No biggie. But I feel so much better today, they wanted to let me go like 5 hrs ago but theres a certain thing you have to do before they consider letting you go and i couldnt do it for along time. but i am home now, thank god. Cost me alot to be in the hospital, not the hosiptal it self but jenny's cab rides here everyday and food and she hired a pet sitter my meds, and blah blah blah, 750 bucks out the window real fast.
But i missed all of you and i thank you for your support, I guess they told jenny i wasnt gonna make it threw the night of the 6th. I lost alot of blood and some other fluids that are essintail to living. But guys like i told her im a survivor and im to dang stubborn to die. Besides who'd run my trains?
Sure is glad to be back n my own home, it never smelt or looked better i have to admit. Well i am gonna get off here and will catch you guys later tomorrow. Thanks for caring !
This is an awesome family and i am so glad to belong here!
Say it ain't so, Laz! Get well soon Zeke and praying for your quick recovery. Hope Mrs. Blueberry is doing better too. John S - glad you got your ball in the hole okay
Friends watched our kids last night, so my wife and I went out and had a nice roast beef dinner (Arbys - had to get to the theater on time) and saw the new DIE HARD movie, which was GREAT! Then, this morning we caught up to the kids at swim practice and then us guys and our sons went to see Transformers, which was a great action/sci fi flick Then to a couples shower for my baby sister who is getting married in about a month.
Bobbing Head Dracula Car showed up today - looks great, I'll guess it was never run before. Didn't get a chance to run it yet, but I'll do it tomorrow. TTFN
RIP Chewy - best dog I ever had.
I never was able to get John on his phone. We did have a great time at the Curve and I'm going back up tomorrow.
Here is a photograph of some guy from NC that used his GPS to find the Horse Shoe Curve. He had stickers on the back the said VOTE FOR MAYOR.

Did the same to me yesterday and again a few mintues ago. Software is getting "holes" in it again.
Watered garden and Pam's flowers. Takes hours to water her flowers and shrubs. So many so thick, have to hand water. Tired. Took another shower and resting and watching TV. Miami Vice is on. Never seen. Seems to be picking up some now.
Later.
Jenny, we will be sending some prayers up on this side of the country as well. We serve an awsome God who is still in the miracle business. Zeke has been a blessing to us here and to this country. While our prayers are for you too, it helps to have someone there with you. Do you have family around? One person I think would be good to talk with would be Charles' wife. After the many years they spent together, you know she has had pleny of experience of going through tough times and there is no better teacher than experience.
God Bless you both.
Now for Fifedog,

That must be the REBEL side of him I've been reading about.
give him a minute, he'll be finished! Got a little Mississippi coon hound in him.
Was a tough day. After kids were fed, we went to eye Dr., he checked all of us.....my eyes are the same, but suggests I wear special eye protection in doing any activities outside, or soldering under the layout to keep me in my current profession. Following this, we headed up to Columbus as a dear friend of ours was diagnosed with cancer. It was found in her abdomen and lungs, which pretty much closes the door on this. Today she started Chemotherapy, but if it doesn't stop the progression in short order, you might as well not do it and let the last months of her life be as comfortable as possible without all the side effects of Chemo. All in all, it was a tough time to see her like this.
Chief, let Pam win sometimes! While it may be her new excersize routine, she still needs to think it is something she can excell in and enjoy.
Hope everyone has a great night and Sunday. I will try to check in after moring Church. we are bringing breakfast for Sunday School, so a good time will be had by all.

Good evening all,
It has been an interesting two days since I last posted. I mowed half the yard and swept the house last night. Stayed up too late watching a dumb movie, and finished up the rest of the housework this morning. The older daughter was down here most of the day with her two kids. I entertained the older of the two grandkids most of the day. Fortunately when they are two, you can play "chase" and not wear yourself out. We had my dad over for lunch as well and I ran the standard gauge for him upstairs and we watched the IRL qualifying on the website. Helio is on the pole and Manning is starting ninth. Danica and Sarah are way in the back of the pack. Scott Speed is starting 15th in the F-1 race tomorrow. I will be in open wheel heaven tomorrow as the F-1 is on Fox at 1 PM and the IRL is on ABC at 3:30 PM (check local listings). I washed two days of dishes tonight as the wife had been at Bloomington Friday. Lucas spent the day at King's Island with some friends. The newest Lego catalog came today and they have some awesome building kits that could be used on regular train layouts. I may consider some for my standard gauge. The dining car had bran muffins for breakfast this morning as it headed to "Points East". I hope everyone (especially Zeke and Jenny) has a good day and welcome back, Buckeye.
Keep on training,
Mike C. from Indiana
Hi ladies!
What a nice day we had here. After a BFB (Big Farm Breakfast) we headed out for a day of sun and for me, ogling young honeys in bikinis at the pool. Lots to look at today! I scored 3 phone numbers and a myspace address!
Got home, did a few chores, then rubber stamped my 2025 cab. I originally did it with ink, but discovered it came off with a wet paper towel. So I used silver paint instead. It looks completely authentic! I should write that teenage girl with the myspace address to tell her how nice it looks! So after I ran the 2025 for a while, I made a big roast beef dinner with carrots and potatos, gravy, green beans, salad,...had the inlaws over and we all enjoyed a great meal. Getting ready for a little desert and tea.
That's all for now. Big baptism and party tomorrow. Hoopy doo! Jury duty on Monday. "Get a rope"!
Jenny and Zeke; thinking of you
