A Bit Busy!
« on: December 03, 2009, 04:02:13 pm »
 




  I have  not been around much as it stopped raining here for the most part and I had to get to work.  I quit building on the Ark and went to do a timber frame house.  Got it topped out last week.  Now to get the roof on and side that little darling.
  My computer just comes on every once in a while.  I think the power supply is going out again.
  I am alive and except for the headaches doing better.

Take two asburns and comeback tomorrow.


You're looking mighty healthy standing up there on that roof point.   I'll bet the view is good from there.

Sure glad to hear that you're doing OK

Glad to hear your well, I was wondering where you were.  Nice looking timberframe.

Maybe your going for the Santa look this year?  Or is it the Tom look?

My kid thinks Tom is Santa.  (me too  ;))

It’s like déjà-vu all over again! 



But I note Arky ain’t climbing up and standing on the top.



And he left his cape at home.   :D

  Well my computer went south for the winter.  But after a new power supply and a hard drive I am back up and running again.
  My head ache is why I am not standing on the top of that frame.  Some days I just want to sit in the corner and suck my thumb and cry.  Going to see another head doc in Jan.
  I am looking more like Tom every day.  Which I am a thinking is not a bad thing.  Santa is loved by all and most women think he is a hottie.  Why he is good with kids and animals and always knows what to bring.
  I will try to get a photo of the view from the top of the roof next time I am up there.  This is the same house I fell off of in June and cracked my gourd.
  My cape is hooked to my Baker shirt which I do not wear out in public. ;D

Hey Arky.  You probably already know this but I'm going to say it anyway...  Sustained headache is not good at all, man.  Don't wait around any longer.  Get a full checkup, CT scans, the more in depth scans, get both your neck and head scanned, etc.

Just Do It.  As quickly as you can.

I reckon warbird has the rite idea get all the tests you can and a good doc should sort out whats causing it   8) and like he said you allready know  ;) ;D 8)

  I have been scaned, mri ed and x rayed till I glow at night now.  Them Doc's are so afraid to guess at what might be out of whack that they are afraid to do any thing but give me another pill.   "Doc" says I "them pills come with 3 pages of side effects all worst then the headaches."  The just cover up the problem not fix it.   I am sure something is just knocked out of alignment but can not tell where it is.  I can lift 400 lbs and move 5+ tons of wood aday and since the ribs and coller bone is healed I feel no pain any where.  Just feels like a clamp on my temples and every so offten someone gives it a tighten.   Seem to be more sensitive to light then any thing else.
  Looks like the Pres is messing with the ecomony again so things are going to get slower around here again.

Arky,  I had headaches  bad when I bent over ,had cat scans MRIs the works ,went to a head DR. What he told me to do was to get one of those pillows that fit around your neck or gives your neck some surport , three or four days later no headaches!

I start getting headaches when my glasses are getting bad. light sensitivity is my #1 tell on top of the headaches that I am in need of a new pair.   Also when outside the Polarized glasses sure helps with my light sensitivity...   Also the headaches are worse when I need the glasses and I'm doing a lot of driving or up/down in heights where the spacial area changes with my body location that is not normal.   I ended up needing glasses to get my drivers license, got the glasses my headaches went away next day...  now why didnt I think of that.  seems I was squinting a lot which constricted the blood flow to my brain or some such thing that I didnt even know I was doing..
