The day started out with me dumping what gas
I had and could get into the car, then talking to the guy I'm buying it from, his wife was suppost to pick me up about 10am and take me to the bank and then the gas station. At 12:30pm with no sign of my ride, I straped my 5gal gas can to my 2 wheeler and off I went. Had just enough in the bank to get $10 out and leave in a buck to keep it open. Put the $10 in my can and headed home. By 5pm I reached home, with my left foot swelled up and so sore. I dumped most gas in car's tank, keeping just enough to use on the carb on cold mornings. By 6:30 I was up at the corner with the scope, stayed there until just after 8pm, had a few stop to look at the moon. By the time I headed home I couldn't stand on the left foot at all, the heel skin has cracks as big as the grand canyon and with two sores on top up front I just can't ware a full shoe on it, so will have to use an ace on it and dig out my cut away shoe I made just for this kind of deal. Plus my left knee, the worst of the two, is sore as heck too. I think I'm going to have to take a month off just to heal and repair. -- The Forgotten http://home.inreach.com/starlord/forgotten.htm SIAR www.starlords.org Telescope Buyers FAQ http://home.inreach.com/starlord Car Fund Page Update http://www.bishopcarfund.netfirms.com/ --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

For the heel cracks: Wipe your feet liberally with some sort of ointment like coconut foot softener, etc, or even just vaseline. Then put plastic bags over your feet, followed by socks. Wear the socks and plastic bags 24 hours a day for a few days, occasionally adding more ointment. The cracks will heal quickly. -tom |

I soaked today for over an hour, that whole foot is swelled up, so I have to
be carefull with it now. Sky looks nice and clear, not sure if I'll go up tonight or not, will see what I'm like after I make my beef stew this afternoon. -- The Forgotten http://home.inreach.com/starlord/forgotten.htm SIAR www.starlords.org Telescope Buyers FAQ http://home.inreach.com/starlord Car Fund Page Update http://www.bishopcarfund.netfirms.com/ "vic20owner" wrote in message . ..
