Wassup Fellas !

**beardog03** · 10-13-2009 01:58 PM

I have been feeling pretty down lately....until I recieved a call from my good freind Jesse !

Since the strokes , life has gone all the way down hill....including lossing my job.....which is believed to be one of the main factors in me having the strkes to begin with.

Anyway, I have been putting everything I own up for sale to pay medical bills, and my systems was in line to be sold.....until I heard from Jesse !!

I got up today to a hard pouring storm, and decided to fire up the tunes to see if I could get out of my slouch.

I think that I will go down with the ship before I sell my system..!

I love the synergy and the way it can make me smile even when life really sucks !
I rolled some tubes in the pre and have been feeling pretty good all morning.

So , I just thought I would say...."wassup "?!!

Hope evrybody is doing well

Bear

Rest easy when you can bro. Godspeed to a full recovery and things will definitely get better. Enjoy the tunes.

**NJPOLKER** · 10-13-2009 02:03 PM

Thanks for the update and I/we sure hope you get feeling better real quick. Listening to tunes is great therapy and should be mandatory for people who are feeling down. Hell, even listening to a **** system can make a person feel better and a guy with a great system like yours you'll be flying high in no time. Keep the faith and the tunes cranking.
Let the guys/gals know if we can do anything to help.
Your friend you have yet to meet, Drew

**everpress** · 10-13-2009 02:05 PM

I can't imagine giving up my music.
And I know that none of our systems are the music, I know that I can hear my music so much better with it.

I hope your health improves and your outlook gets a bit brighter.

Keep it loud.

**beardog03** · 10-13-2009 02:05 PM

Thanks guys !

Gotta love the music !

**NJPOLKER** · 10-13-2009 02:06 PM

Good work Jesse and thanks goes to you too for being a great guy.

**thsmith** · 10-13-2009 02:07 PM

Sounds like a positive attitude, listening to some good tunes and hearing from a friend can over come most anything.

Hope this morning was a turning point towards better things to come.

**janmike** · 10-13-2009 02:08 PM

Glad I stopped by today !!

**dkg999** · 10-13-2009 03:01 PM

Any chance of claiming early retirement benefits based on medical disability? I only ask because I'm familiar with someone who just did that, however I don't know any of the details and rules that made it possible.

**steveinaz** · 10-13-2009 03:08 PM

Prayers and best wishes big man. Good to hear from you.

**ben62670** · 10-13-2009 03:12 PM

Bear I tried to get a hold of you. You have been in my prayers.
Take care.
Ben

**disneyjoe7** · 10-13-2009 03:13 PM

Prayers and bst thoughts too you sir. Good to hear you're posting and jamming again.

Music is too the soul of life. :)

**Pauly** · 10-13-2009 03:16 PM

Hope things get better. Enjoy the tunes

Thanks fellas...

I don`t know..
I`m trying to look into it, but everything is so confusing to me these days....

I have had two strokes that left legions on the side and back of my brain, and a smaller third one , which did not require I stay in the hospital...

I had to quit smoking and gained weight ...I am now a fat bastage !!

280 lbs of jacked up beardog !!

Could be alot worse though......
I have good and bad days....today is a good one !!

**danger boy** · 10-13-2009 03:31 PM

one day at a time my friend.... take it one day at a time.

glad that you posted again... and that today is a good day for you.

Walking is a good way to take weight off.. it's gradual, but it's so good for you on may levels.. and is low stress on joints.

**beardog03** · 10-13-2009 03:35 PM

Thanks DB !
yeah, I started taking short walks with the wife

It sure is hard to move the weight though !!

I go to two different therapy`s , twice a week still

i graduated from physical therapy, but still have alot of excercises to do....I just don`t always do them

**Keiko** · 10-13-2009 04:40 PM

Rock steady beardog. Hang in there bro.

**Kex** · 10-13-2009 05:12 PM

Robert, I've been thinking of you lately and was hoping to see you around at some point, before too long, and here you are! I hate to learn that you have worked so hard and gotten so ill just to loose your job. It doesn't seem right, somehow ... sort of anti-American.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to more positive news from you in the future. I just wish I lived up your way and I'd tell you to bring over the wifey and we'd discuss our mutual addiction with mine ... over a glass of wine, of course (doctor's orders permitting - it's my "other" addiciton). Thanks for popping in today to update us on the situation. You're one of the good'uns!

**beardog03** · 10-13-2009 06:32 PM

Thanks man !
I hope all is well with you and yours....

**danz1906** · 10-13-2009 06:41 PM

Hang in there.....Its going to get better:)

**cfrizz** · 10-13-2009 06:41 PM

It's great to hear from you Robert! I'm sorry you are going through such a hard time. But I agree with Doug, have your wife help you look into disability. That's what they have social workers for.

Keep a positive attitude & take care of yourself.

**beardog03** · 10-13-2009 06:56 PM

thanks sis !
How have you been ?

and thanks to everybody that responded...
It`s nice to have a place to come hang out with so many good folks and talk about what we love

**madmax** · 10-13-2009 06:57 PM

Sorry to hear about this. Lots of people have strokes and its not the end of the world, just a change in habits, different job or lifestyle etc. The important thing is to be happy no matter what gets thrown at you.

**beardog03** · 10-13-2009 07:11 PM

True enough

alot of guys at the hospital had it much worse than I do

**jtgranby** · 10-13-2009 07:16 PM

Hang in there Robert. Take those walks and do your exercises. Maybe we can have a wake up call club for you to get your day going. In my Prayers.

Jim

**engtaz** · 10-13-2009 07:43 PM

Glad to hear your doing better. When things are down, are music can make it better. Prayers are with you.

God Bless
Roy
