    What's up with Roger Ronas

    Hello fellow casters,
    I must explain why I haven't been around much lately.
    About 45 days ago I was forced to start Dialysis. It's been a rocky road, living alone and riding my scooter back and forth to treatments.
    I have to sit in chair without moving for 5 hours, 3 days a week.
    I have fatigue after words and don't feel much like surfing the net.
    I will try to do better.

    Thanks
    Roger

    Don't blame you for not feeling like surfing the net after a thrice weekly experience like that. Just hang in there and keep your chin up and spend your quality time with who and what matters.

    My father had to do dialysis for years an he had to go 60 miles one way . We all took turns taking him to his treatments . They made him very tired also . Good luck with your treatments.

    That does not sound fun at all. I know it would drive me crazy not being able to move for that long. Hang in there!
    The solid soft lead bullet is undoubtably the best and most satisfactory expanding bullet that has ever been designed. It invariably mushrooms perfectly, and never breaks up. With the metal base that is essential for velocities of 2000 f.s. and upwards to protect the naked base, these metal-based soft lead bullets are splendid.

    Forget everything you know about loading jacketed bullets. This is a whole new ball game!

    That sucks Roger! Do you have a laptop? I download old movies free from the net and watch them during down time. Jay

    Roger I hope that your situation improves and you can maintain a normal life. My father-in-law had to undergo dialysis and it really bothered him until he acclimated to the treatments. He never got used to them completely but he was able to get to the point that they didn't bother him as much.

    Hopefully you will reach that point soon and be better able to handle it. Prayers that your situation improves.
