Shift kit in an Acadia is pretty freakin cool. I had to spend the night in the hospital last night. Monday morning I woke up with some pretty severe joint pain and stiffness in places where I usually don’t hurt. By noon I felt like I would be a liability at work so I went home. By yesterday afternoon the pain and weakness had spread to my muscles and was bad enough I had to use both hands to turn door knobs and walking down stairs was a challenge. As of now the dr suspects I have a some sort of blood illness from being bitten by a tick. I haven’t seen a tick in months but who knows. This morning they’re going to start another round of tests to try and narrow it down. They kept me over night because I had a high fever, pulse of 161, systolic pressure reaching 200, and was showings signs of kidney malfunction. Those are all far from normal for me.

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkLol I figured while I had it apart might as well try to make things mo-better!TransGo sk-6t70 it was like $70. Just replaces some valves just like the one for the Allison and included the rubber grommets for the shift solenoids which is good because I had one that was bad. Didn’t get any pics of that though.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkDang man! what's their line of thinking, lyme? Hope they figure it out quick and that it's not that new thing they're talking about on the news where you recover but then you're allergic to meat for the rest of your life. praying for you.
Dave, when we get large vet bills we fix it with 7 cents. I figure my dogs are always $500 or less, I pay yearly for their shots, heart worm and flea and tick. We also have them groomed every couple of months. However, when they get old and have issues I refuse to spend large money fixing them. On the other hand I had no idea you could buy pet medical insurance, interesting. Although, I will not be getting a quote on it.
Quote from: Farmer Jon on July 21, 2018, 11:21:26 PM I have been so busy once we got home from vacation. I haven't kept up on what up on here. Something killed all my chickens and most of my ducks while we were away. I set traps out. The critters just roll the traps over and shake out the bait. So OK fine. I just kept feeding them all week. Hot dogs and marshmallows. Tonight I staked the traps down and hung the bait in there. The easy supper wont be so easy this time. With the chickens all gone I started fresh. I went and got 1 sheep, 4 Geese, 11 ducks and 2 hens. One with babies, one sitting on eggs. Did a major no no and moved the nest. The guy I got them from was moving so it had to be done. We will see what happens. Picked up a new job trucking. Hauling rock for a big construction company on a highway job. Not a great paying job but its picking up the slack from the crop prices. Some of you might remember me saying my mother in law was moving up here to Nebraska from Kentucky. She is adjusting pretty well so far. She can,t stand driving by a hog confinement or feed lot. She holds her nose. We laugh and say thats the smell of money! We lost our second Barred Rock last night. Down to 19 chickens and 1 rooster now. I’ve had a cage trap out but nothing has messed with it so I’m thinking it’s a fox. We’ve seen them in the yard several times and had pictures of them on game cameras back in the winter.

What did you do Nate? Looks more than ingrowns (been there a couple times)Glad I am working inside right now, little warm out there (picture) however I did start by cleaning off the solar panels.
I have to admit my brother is a foot dr and has removed part of my nail more than once, once it grew back split like two nails, part of the problem is how strong the root of the nail is, part is how strong the acid that kills the root is, mine was strong, the second time it killed all the root, mine was a partial removal each time, but there are variables. Note that that man has saved me from amputation twice. And i have all my limbs as of this date, he is a great doc and is a dr at the vets center at cincinati. He respects the vets and tells me all the time how he spoke with friends of mine who i taught hunter safety with or customers of mine where i work, its neat tp know how much they respect him and as well how much they respect me. Point is, nothing works every time, some times you just have to have faith and try again, mo matter the prefix on the name, last week i talked to a pa after having been in 3 hospitals, in two states in a weeks time, seen 10 or so dr's and none of them told me of a tenth of what the mri's i had said, turns out i have 2 bad hips, and i need my spine worked on, oh, i a;so have 8 cyst in my hp that needs to be removed. Ladies and gentelman, its the doc or person that makes the difference but you do have to give them a chance, ohand by the way don, i may be off work over the fall/winter months for a bit, but you have my number.
