    Just logged and saw the last time I was here "November 2010" My how time flies when your having fun "NOT".
    Put Dad in nursing home back in November, Father in law is down...wife stays with him 5 days a week. Told her it's like dating all over again, talk to her at night on the phone and see her on Saturday night (after I take dad back to nursing home) and a little while on Sunday, before she goes back to stay with her dad for the week.
    No funds to work on the Mav...she looks pretty sad dust covered and mostly pretty much took apart...started getting ready to really start working on it and wham........
    Oh well, just thought I'd let you know I was still alive, just in case any of you remember me. Keep on Maving and one of these days........yea , "one of these days"

    Hang in there Buddy! My Mav is sitting with dust on it right now. I've had a few big vet bills recently and with the crummy weather, love bugs, and lack of funds, I haven't been driving my car! Once it cools off a little and some gas money funds return, she'll be cruisin again! (y)

    Sorry to here about all of the physical problems. I have been there and still in the middle of it. Hang in there and keep as positive as possible. I believe it is a god given responsibility to take care of our parents when they need help. That car can wait. Work on it when you can. God bless you and your wife!!
