I havent been on here much for the last couple of months, and havent done much woodwork some but not a lot
My wife was in the hospital and had her appendix out, when she started getting better my son when into the hospital with acute pancreitas caused by a bad gall bladder, he was in ICU for 10 days and of course Michiko and I was worried sick well he is out now and doing good, but he is staying with us for awhile.
So now I can start doing a little more woodworking.

Glad to hear that your wife and son are doing better, everything including our shop's take second place to family. You have paid your dues so go on back out there.

Good to hear everyone is doing better Earl. I've missed seeing your work as well as the friendly banter. But don't think I'm going to start making round stuff all of a sudden

We are all happy to hear that LOYL is better after her appendectomy (BTDT) and trust that your son will be back to full strength soon, too. I recall when my wife had gall bladder problems and it wasn't fun at all. Glad you're back and the family is back on the mend!

Earl,

It's good to hear that your wife and son are on the mend. I agree that family is a higher priority than anything else. While taking care of them, make sure you also take care of yourself.

Ray
