You in PA now? From KY -> PA? I will say 10/10 PA is the most southern northern state =P! I lived in W PA for a couple of years back in the day. It's for sure why I hate the living shit out of The Amish now a days. Cause they saw my girlfriend and I (both mixed) as some sort of real life demons and actually ran from us. Like, RAN, ran! Freakin' assholes, the whole lot. They got puppy mills too, they're total scumshits. Yeah, whenever my gal and I move it's a car move. Solo? A bag move. Keeping it as cheap and as simple as possible is my motto. Sounds like you got a lemon, but to be honest all used cars right now are lemons. Because the prices are higher than suck-shit and everyone is driving their cars until their breaking point. But older vehicles are way easier to fix, and if you've got the know how and the skills you can for sure make due.
Ah, so they really took the whole damn thing. Well if you're set, you're set hahahaha! Like I said I've only even known two folks in my life before you with it but while they got bits cut out they never took the whole thing. I don't know too much about steroids other than they can be a miracle worker when needed. I'm glad you figured out what you need to keep things together though. By the by, there's ALWAayyyssss some fire you've gotta put out on a farm. You'll be fine with finding what thing you've gotta fix next =P! I guess if you're in PA it'd have less pollen that the deep south for sure. But shit is still pretty high in my book. But I don't really know anywhere I've ever lived outside of HI that wasn't testing me when it came to pollen. Arthritis is a fuck face, and it can go fuck itself. But cultivating muscle is always a great lubricant for aging as a whole.
I've got a tag-team hitting me up, but I am gunna keep them private here just on account of it being a federated space I suppose (I'm not sure how many loudmouthed, mixed blah - blah blah live in x and blah blah blah). It's kinda weird because I always had my pain moments I guess I'll call them. Weird stuff, like my hearing going out, outta nowhere and what not. But I always pushed through all the weirdness because I just figured being human is pain and I was/am(?) such a firecracker my vigor kept me going. But man, I hit a wall. I mean the whole fucking wall. And my body has never been the same since. And it's affected the will. And until I just accepted things for what they were and just let go of trying to get back to a space that I will probably never exist in again I was being driven crazy by the frustration of it all. But I will say that if I could wave a magic wand, I think my life would have been way different. And to be honest, while I am still living - I wasn't ready for the adventure part to end. It might reignite in the future, but I don't think it'll ever be like it was.
