Hey everyone - sorry I've been away for so long - just been dealing with life's surprises & twists.

My pap passed away at the end of October in his house with my dad holding his hand while I was on my way back with supplies

  He made it a lot longer than the doctors said he would - I think he was trying to make it to his wedding anniversary (his 67th) but missed it by 4 days. The last thing he was able to eat was some chipped beef gravy from another batch of dried beef I made for him. At least I was able to make sure he ate what he wanted - I would go home & make things for him after he fell asleep.

My grandma was lost then so we all took turns staying with her till recently so she wouldn't be alone. I ended up pushing myself a bit too hard through everything & ended up with some more complications that stemmed back to my accident & put me on the bench for a while

Fortunately I was able to sell a few extra pieces of equipment from my shop to keep going.  Also my mom was taking my other grandmother (her mom) to a doctors appointment when they got t-boned by some idiot on a cell phone on the way home so that had me tied up for a while too.

So... long story short... I am getting around good again & ready to resume smoking/making meats, sausages etc... The only thing I have left is a pack of CB & 2 packs of smoked cheese so I have to do something soon!

Back in action soon,

I hope your New Year is a new start for you and your family. It is hard to get over this kind of loss and I hope you have more joy in 2014.
