yes - we have had a good many years here going on 40+ for me over half ,my life but we are talking of leaving - they tax our SS and we are older with a large house thats a lot of work now , we are looking to move as soon as grandkids come of age , a lear or so - work in progress , that channel carries all my westerns - rifleman , ponderosa , wagon train , gunsmoke , green acres , petticoat junction , beverly hillbillys , mayberry , im sure there are others in times ive never watched , all the things i remember asa a kid as well as those i watched later , some i never watched - a lot of B&W , i watched them on B*W TVs that didnt get color ....whats not in color today ? im watching it mostly these days ,

thanks - i was the fallen and i cant get up guy last fall , - i always scoffed at that as i had never experienced brady cardia ...........now i understand , you guys work hard - took three to get me out of the house and still broke something my wife put back together so no problem , thanks to all that do the EMT work , it made my episode much easier , u laterally could not get to the car when my wife was wanting to take me in , i wont scoff at the fall and i cant get up again , im not sure why others might experience it but with bradycardia you literally are sleeping while wide awake and you can move but you have nothing to stand /walk / do anything but sit or lie in whatever position you are in , i fif not realize it came n slow - i kept getting tired faster and with less efforts , i just said i was getting old and less capable , now im able and i can , im not 50 again but im not yet 75 either - thats next year , i have more energy and can operate normal again , i still dont like ladders but i can again climb one without getting woozy , not that i wantto ,

yes , me too and we did everything ourselves till this year , i did the first bath and told her i was too old for this now - so we have hired out the second two , thats whats taking so long , the one i did tooh me a couple weeks , these two are going on two months and she is getting ansi to be done - one nearly is but it just seems there is always one more thing , we have one more that we shall put off a bit till the pocketbook recovers a little and we rethink the approach ,

dont speak of the ausie side of my family often as it goes back a few generations and i personally dont know a lot of them but my folks visited before the died , it was my great great grandfather and his brother that parted ways from scotland - my side migrated to canada and then south to arkansas - then back north much later the other side went to austrailia - im not at all familiar with them byt my mother researched - saught out and my foljks visited them back in the 70s - id like to do that but imnot sure that will ever happen ,

i love holding my 1915 BSA mkIII with its fixed 1910 mole hookie , there is something about grasping a bit of history even if only in your mind and only for an instant of thought , for those of you that dont know thats an early british SMLE enfeild rifle still wearing its early design features and a rare early P1907 bayonet , one of many combinations ive owned over the years , this primary example i still own - rest are trainers OH , and this one is marked to the 3MD which indicates service in both world wars and my ausie folks will understand
