2026 v4. Ol-Fart report

It’s been 6weeks plus 4days since the Saw-Bones had his way with me. It’s a funny thing to seek, work for, pay for an opportunity to be “fixed”. And not in the animal-husbandry sense. Fixed in the broken sense…

My life of wild adventure and blatant disregard of risk has led me an age where I have more than a few parts n pieces that don’t work like they use to. I claim I am a 1957-model that has been used hard and heavy. Not a garage-star 57-model thats been on-charge and undercover. Nope, my chassis has been damaged and driven damaged for a long time.

It’s amazing how well our body adapts to injury. We are self-healing in most instances. I feel myself standing pretty straight and strong. I’ll not push my new ankle too much. I have pretty much taken this year off from “business” and will relax, heal, mend, then see where we are.

I must say I’m ready to be up and moving. Not just hobbling like an ol fart, but moving, moving again.

Dogs are good….

Life is guud…

More later

      Today is day3 of steps. Went from a few hundred play over weeks to 5000 yesterday. Feels great but foot is sore today so doing less. Health big requires patience.
