    Well I'm certainly glad that worked out for you hopefully I can be half that lucky. It is a little scary thinking about starting something else after so long

    Hello all
    Sounds like you are the right person for the dog. And the poll is never wrong...mostly.
    Why would this bother you? You now know what your shoulder is capable of and you know what you need to do to stay healthy for the long run. The job is only for pay, take what they give you and make the most of it. Be happy that it is just a shoulder, there are a lot worse things.
    I am with you, dark when I leave, dark when I get home.

    You sir are correct. Having to start over or just do something else doesn't bother me really. You know as well as I do I'm damn sure not in love with this job. It's just been drug out now for almost 2 years and I think you know how much it's just worn me out. The only part that really bothers me, as trivial to many people as it may be, is the thought of not shooting a bow anymore. It's a small price to pay but has been a large part of my life for 30 years.

    I think you could probably start a business except the web part would screw you up. You can't even seem to figure out how to change your sig pic to the truck you currently own.

    Hang in there. When they finally decided that my wife could no longer do here job of 25 years they let her decide what she wanted to go to school for. Accounting free ride! But it took them three years to get to that point. Also got all her back pay!

    Their attorney or yours? Get a attorney that is working for you. And don't volunteer any information to their attorney.

    Ready to head out shortly with temps in the high 20's.
    My BIL is supposed to show up a little after daybreak and I am going to show him a few spots in another area.
    Tomorrow may be another story as the cold front is on it's way with high winds. Not a big fan of being in the woods with high winds. Had enough close calls already.

    :pccoffee: Good morning.
    Don't know about English Bulldogs but for Tollers it is to protect the breed standard. And the dog. To prevent someone from starting a puppy mill, and having health issues like Goldens and many other breeds have. Your not going to get a Toller without a contract. If you do find one without a contract I would not get it.

    Was a lot easier before the internet and no one knew what the hell a Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever was. But you still had to know a breeder and get on a waiting list, and sign a contract. Now the waiting list for most breeders is up to 2-3 years long. Been around the breed long enough I know a lot of the breeders and being a previous Toller owner you get bumped to the top of their list. Having a breeder ask YOU if you want a pup is not common, but says a lot about the integrity of the breeders.

    I used to think the same thing too. You'd be surprised it isn't as bad as you envision. After 20 years in the pit of ships and Chiefs Initiation there isn't a damn thing I can't do. Anywhere.

    I do keep going back to your keep life simple... It would be an emotional decision and not a logical one which has me a bit worried thinking about it logically.

    Yeah high winds and trees can be a rather "exciting" time I can do without anymore. Leaves are a bit crunchy here this morning.

    Screenshot_20171109.jpg

    Real feel is currently 16* and temps dropping through the day, the high of 24 is right now. At least it is double digits yet. Above zero too.

    Time for the rain locker and off to work. I also hate the dark when I leave and dark when I get home. Ready to start working from home again hopefully starting next week.
