Too worn out today, my back's hurting a lot, and I remembered I have a
doctor's appointment this afternoon anyway. He's not Doctor Feelgood,
though. He's just the guy I get my run-of-the-mill meds from. I have to
see him at least once a year to keep my prescriptions for the lightweight
stuff.

I'm pretty sure that this is the year I retire. I've been checking
things out, and I should be able to do it and be okay. I think, NOT
doing it is more detrimental to me than losing the extra dollars I'd make
beating myself up for another year or two. You can't put a price on your
health.

If I do end up retiring, I would definitely visit Pandora, if she thinks
she could tolerate me.

Correct, you can't. I think it's worth it to NOT have to work so hard
especially if you think you can afford to stop working.

I really don't know why it's been so bad these last few days. I don't
think I'm doing anything different, but some times it just flares up for
no specific reason. On days like that, I have enough meds to make it
bearable, but I have to take it easy. More sleep helps. I might have
another easy day tomorrow, and that's just fine with me.

I've had some success selling panel-punching components, and haven't even
pushed that yet. That would simply involve buying stuff by the case, as
I already do, and breaking it up into smaller quantities. No real work
on my part other than repackaging stuff and sending it out. What I'm
doing now is to labor-intensive.

I know what you speak of. My back does that to me now and then for no
reason that I am aware of. I use an ice pack and aspirin and it usually
gets better in a few days.

It certainly sounds like it. It's good, IMO, to have *something* to do
after retiring. Doing nothing (like gweggles) can make one go nuts.

No way would I be jellus. I have warned you about her
motives. That's the extent of the help I am able to
extend you. Perhaps if you two get together you will
wise up before she takes you to the cleaner.

I'd bet that she has more money than me already, so I don't think either
of us is the slightest bit concerned about such matters. Remember, she
once offered to loan ME money. I declined because I never want money to
be an issue with anyone I consider a friend. I'd just like to meet her
and hang out together... maybe see the local sights or whatever. I don't
even know how you think money would ever be a part of the picture.

Have you EVER met a woman who didn't have your
money as a motive? I haven't. Women all expect

Well, I ain't thinkin' that way to begin with.
