Just the usual old man stuff. Knees are going and I blew out a hamstring an ACL trying to compensate. Could hardly walk for a couple months. Did PT and it's getting better, but if I kneel down I still can't get back up without something to hold onto. Pain is down so I can kinda sleep again. Blood pressure meds got inadvertently changed which cause BP so high I was nearly hospitalized before they figured it out. That's getting back to normal now, but residual side effects. Get well soon.

Thank ya, sir! I'm working on it. I have 6 unopened bags of grain to start working on!

The work I've been doing in my new place keeps reminding me that my brain is trying to make promises that my body can't deliver on. I'm doing it but the creeking and grunting is audible. Denny, I hope you're back on it soon so you can crack into those bags of malt. Cheers.

I have not been able to get along with my wife for quite awhile and I'm getting too old to argue every day. So yes, I am in a new place as of early November and I'm liking it and getting used to it. On the topic of "aging"... the problem is that my mind says "Oh I can totally do that" and before you know it I'm doing something that my brain agreed to but my body did not!

My brain thinks I'm 17. My body says 87. Sorry things didn't work out for you, but ya gotta do what ya gotta do.

Here, I moved into a place that has a lot of potential including being able to brew and that includes running water in my 2-car garage! If you haven't seen it yet, head over to The Greenhouse and check out the pub area I've been working on. I have a bag of Montana Pilsner (never used it before and I hope it's good) and some WLP940 on the way from Label Peelers and I plan to brew sometime in the next 3 weeks or so... first batch in the new place.
