Thought you'd be concentrating on getting the XS on the road first.

Getting older but no wiser! Just using bigger hammers.
The answer to most problems, fire and lots of it.

Just don't over-reach yourself Mike! (hope I know you well enough to say that). Don't want to see you on the downward spiral again, which is what happens when you do too much at the same time!

Mike, I have another friend who suffers in a similar manner and I initially thought he had bi-polar disorder . He got himself checked over and turns out he has Borderline Personality Disorder which really could be summed up as a rapid recyling bi-polar ie the time separation from ups and downs are not measured in months but in days. Sometimes it can be multiple episodes on a single day.
It pains me to see anyone suffering from the huge variety mental health issues that can afflict any of us ( me included) and I wish you well in sorting this. The first step is getting a PROPER diagnosis . It's NOT a quick fix but it CAN be fixed .

BTW What is it with you and ribs? |
