craigled Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 I have always tried to tell myself (when i am feeling down) that there is always somebody,somewhere in a worse position than myself. And also, That we should not get too down about something. Because we are only here once. We should make the most of it. All easier said than done though.

Kiwi_Zep_Fan87 Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 (edited) Honestly, the generosity of some people here, truly and utterly astounds me! I left work at around 7 and I came back home, only to find a parcel from the UK, judging by the Royal Mail stamp on it. Now, who do I know from the UK? And then it hit me!! David, many many many thanks from the bottom of my heart! I truly don't deserve this!! Edited March 24, 2017 by Kiwi_Zep_Fan87 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greengrass Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 I was at the golf course today and there were some ladies inside selling raffle tickets for a bunch of stuff. I bought 3 tickets for $20 for a Yeti cooler. She just called me to let me know that i won it! http://yeti.com/tundra-45-cooler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walter Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Damn, where's the happiness anymore? It must be the orange cloud that's been hanging over everyone.... I'm extremely happy because we signed a contract to sell our house, today!!!! The new house should be finished about the same time as the closing date for this transaction, which would be fantastic! Looking forward to moving on.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luvlz2 Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 (edited) Learned a lesson today. Was riding my bike on the sidewalk on the left side of the road (against traffic) and came to a lighted intersection to cross. There was a car on the left side of the intersection wanting to turn right. The crosswalk light was green and I started crossing and the guy on the left side went ahead to make his right turn and hit me. He was apparently only looking on his left waiting for his opportunity to turn right, but he should have looked right to see if there was anybody in the crosswalk. So I was in the right, but it is my responsibility as well to watch what that driver is doing and be careful because it can be a dangerous scenario. I did not get hurt though, only a small red abrasion on my left shin and above that a band aid with a little round deeper abrasion. Not too bad and not painful. The driver did get out of his car and asked me if I was all right, and I said yes. So he took off. I was on my way to work and was only thinking about getting to work on time. Did not realize until after work that my back rim was rolling wobbly, so it's going to set me back about $50. People were telling me I could have made money from it. I would only want the back rim of my bike replaced. But I would not stay on the ground and cry pain just for a pay out unless I was in legitimate pain. The lesson is I should get the driver's info. And should watch the driver in the left lane better if I am going to do that scenario again. And should stay on the right side of the road (traffic) whenever possible to avoid that scenario all together. You live and you learn. Whoops, wrong thread...

Walter Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Glad you're alright though! Orlando is #1 for pedestrian deaths, so I see all kinds of crazy driving. Cars turning right are public enemy #1 for pedestrians. People never look to see if the hand has turned to walk sign. Again, glad you're alright! ✌?
