    Default Long Time No Log In

    Hello Fretters (especially the older members). It’s been about 2 years since my last log on. My relocation to Pittsburgh and being self employed has kept me very busy. I have been too busy to sign in on the Fret Net and too busy to play the guitar.

    At the present time I am laid up in bed after having surgery for a complete ruptured of the right Achilles heel tendon. The upper part of the tendon lost its elasticity and had gone up in to the right calf. The doctor had to cut open the calf muscle to retrieve the tendon to attach the pieces together. I am in a cast from my heel up to my knee and stuck in bed for at least 4 weeks and the possibility of wearing a cast/boot for 6 months.

    I will be checking in the Fret Net to begin reading the past 37,000+ posts that are waiting for my review.

    Guitars:

    Electric: Washburn HB-30, Squier Tele Custom Deluxe, Jay Turser Strat.

    Whoah, good to hear from you Tim! Long time, no doubt!

    I'm sorry to hear about the tendon. That musta hurt.

    I guess you have some reading to do now here on the Fret....

    Dude! Good to see you posting again.

    Sorry to read about your injury. I hope you heal quickly.

    At least while you're in bed you can prop yourself up and grab a gitfiddle for some well deserved playing time!
