Oh sorry Scotty...
Forgot I hadnt posted it for all to see...
here is the skinny....
Had a nasty accident at work 5-13. Put me down pretty good.
Was on my atv riding down the line, and not to sure what happened but I came off of it. Witnesses say the bike and I flipped three or four times.
I dont recall any of it. I woke up in a air rescue chopper. CAT scan, xrays, all show okay. Still feels like I got ran over buy a mack truck.
11 staples to the head.... Outta commission for two weeks and counting.....
Still having pretty bad spells of dizziness and disorientation... I guess kinda like vertigo.

Blake - - for crying out loud man, that looks like you got creamed pretty good. Sloooooowwww down. Don't need to make mama a widow. ....... ooooppsss, guess I shouldn't be beating you on the head right now. Sorry. ........ Hey heal quick - - nasty.
Doc dismissed me this morning for three weeks. Feeling fairly good again - - just tender. Gotta take it easy for a while and do some different exercises to build it back up. Oh well, good excuse to relax a bit and learn to say "NO."
Grabbing a ph00 (thanks Davey) and heading out of here.

My neighbor and his other daughter came over this afternoon. She was thanking us again for getting her dad to the hospital.
Blake was there a helmet on your melon?
Looks like you did a whiplash hit to the ground. Those are nasty,
Take more time if you are still woozy because you could go back to work and keel over again if you even feel slightly like there is vertigo.
It still looks like it would taste pretty good.

Not much exciting just work as EWEsual.
WAs looking through a safety report are work today and my station only has 81 days with out a recordable injury, another has 200 days, the next has over a year, and both hydro-electric plants havent had any kind of injury since 1961! Pretty amazing to me.

Glad you are of Blake, nothing like a good scarring to reset our priorities.

Thanks Fellas... Makes you think for sure. Not to worried about me, but opened up a whole new train of thought of what the wife and kiddos would have to do to survive without me around.
My bike actually survived unscratched for having cut several somersaults. Weird.... My ice chest was a casualty though. 25qt Igloo Marine. It lost a handle and split down the side.
The wife gave me one heck of a get well soon, welcome back to work (soon hopefully), P.S. I love you gift,
She bought me a Yeti Tundra 45qt cooler as a replacement for my dinky Wal-Mart special. That thing is incredible.
