1st Post Heart Procedure Projects

[Tbow388]

I had to have an Ablation on my heart, where they cauterize parts of it. I have only been in the shop a little because of some afterwards chest pain and groin discomfort. I decided on one harder project, the bowl (alder and oak) and 2 easy bird houses. They all turned out pretty well. If anyone wants a copy of my bowl pattern, let me know.

Nice work. Glad the procedure went well. I have A-fib but wasn’t a good candidate for ablation.

I have been on Amioderone for 5 years. It is super bad for your liver and Thyroid. Since I was an active alcoholic for many years he said the procedure would for sure benifit me to get me off the medicine. The great news is that my heart is now pumping at 30%

     I was surprised when I saw your projects and all of them stood out to me as Arizona style work. But you show you are not living in AZ. Do you snow bird there in the winter?

   Nice projects. They did all turn out nice, as you stated. I hope you can keep increasing your heart health. That must be very difficult to deal with every day.

Heavens, Tbow. You cut these following a medical procedure? You were extremely busy. They all turned out awesome. Just take care of yourself. I like seeing you and your work around here!

I was born in Colorado and partly raised there. I spent a good deal of my life in Arizona. I found NorthEast Mississippi 30 years ago and fell in love with it here. I have some family left outside of Denver and some family In the New Mexico Mountains. I still love to visit the west and LOVE Western things but now my heart is in the best place on earth where people are still polite, where kids still call you sir and where the grass and trees are greener than anyplace else on earth. Northeast Mississippi50 miles south of Tennessee and 10 miles east of Alabama.

Shortly after I retired and was then living it Oregon, my wife and I drove to Alabama and stopped at many of the State and Federal parks we could find to visit on the way. I was most surprised by the State of Alabama, as I had the notion that Alabama was the poorest state in the Union. I found it to be one of the  nicest states I have been in. The visitor centers were top notch and more inviting than we saw anywhere else. We visited a NASA site there also. I am glad you found a place  you really enjoy living. You must live in a rather small town as they always are much more friendly then are the big cities. When we moved to Southern Arizona we found a smaller city midway between Phoenix and Tucson, named Casa Grande, that fit our desires. I have grown to really enjoy living here and the people in our community are quite friendly and helpful to one another. Thank you for replying to my question about where you are living. I enjoyed your reply a lot.
