Well, long time no see, eh? Ya, well folks I feel so bad, let's start out with a great big huge...
What, expecting something else?
No siry folks, I have changed very little in the last few months but I do think down a different path these days. You see, two big events/changes have happened as of late. Not only did they take most of my time and energy but they slapped me across the face and woke me up I guess you could say.
First off is my mom. The short of it is that she has been in the ER some 35 times in the last four months. She has bad acid reflux and it trips her difib/pacemaker. Doc's are scratching their heads and so is she (She is no stranger to health type stuff). As you can imagine this is quite trying on my mind as she is 1100 miles away. Good news is she is slowly getting better even though they still don't know what the problem is. Fucking doctors! (Excuse me. ) Well this folks made me realize that life is short, sitting behind my computer all day for the last three years was kind of silly when you get down to it, right? At least when there is real world stuff to attend to, you know like the wife and kids?
Second, and this kind of pertains to my beloved EF, is that my wife had basically lost all interest in sex. Through much discussion we can only figure it is part pre-menopause and stress. You can imagine my shock, outrage and frustration with this development. The thing is I was more focusing on my side, and I hate to say this, because I wanted/needed feedback for not only my reviews but also for helping folks around the forums. Kind of crazy now that I think about it, but I bet there are quite a few that end up doing the same. I know of at least two contributors that did the same thing. Anyway, we have worked things out as best we can and she is showing some interest again. YIPPY!
Some of you know the financial stress we have had this last year (about like everyone else, eh?) and only recently (like a month ago) has this started to get better. Among other things we did to help stuff out we returned my beloved Raven (Black truck in some of my vids). Ya well that was one hard give up let me tell you. I LOVED THAT TRUCK!!!
But I have a new love to replace it. I know, I know, pretty quick turn around, right? Well, this one will be much funner down the road and is a bit more practical. 2001 Jeep Cherokee Sport in Patriotic Blue now sits in my driveway. I also have a new boat. Cool, eh?
Sorry lost track there a bit. Anyways, my sincere apologies first to Fred and the wonderful staff. You guys and gals were always on my mind, I just did not think I could contain all the emotions if I was around and writing reviews. Ask the wife, I have not been in the best mood these past months.
Second big ass apology goes to all my wonderful Edenites, I sure miss being around the forums. Of course I miss the EdenDIY too!
P.S. Gary and Sammi, I await my flogging with the cherry scented double dong for those two review.
Your absence has not gone unnoticed! I'm glad to hear that your mom is feeling better. I imagine that was really difficult with being so far away. I'm also equally glad that you and the wife are getting things figured out! Sometimes it's important to step away and get things at home situated, and personal stuff should always come first! Hopefully we'll be seeing you around a little more often?
I had been wondering recently where you were, what you were up to and how you were doing.
Thanks for sharing this, it's always good to be reminded of this stuff - you can't live your life sitting behind a computer! I'm so glad you did what you did, and appreciate you sharing the hard learned lesson. Hope things continue to look up!
I was just thinking about you the other day, when I wanted to show one of my friends your videos showing how durable glass toys really are.
It sounds like you've had a lot going on, and no one can blame you for wanting to spend more time taking care of real life issues. Glad to have you back around the forums, though. Welcome back!
I don't blame you for leaving. I'd actually probably do the exact same thing, and many people have/do. I hope your mother continues to get better! I'm sorry things got bad, but great to hear they're getting better. I think you're right about your wife, well I can only comment on the stress part of it. That really does have a big impact. Sometimes it can make you want to be intimate for the release or most times it can just make you so emotionally and physically exhausted!
A lot of things have changed around here, specifically the points, just wait until you submit a review and see what you get for it!
Welcome back

Welcome home. I hope your mother will get better soon and that the doctors can find a way to help her. I understand the stress it can put on a family when someone who is loved falls ill. You and your mother will be in my preyers.
I am happy things are looking up concerning your beloved wife. My husband has had no desires in quite a while. We thought it was E.D. however we now know it's low T and he is borderline diabetic. He is now on shots every 2 weeks and is starting to get lead back in the ol' pencil. Thank goodness.
Welcome Back Tim!!
Sorry to hear about your mom prayers she recovers and things get better for her.
Things get rough and you just have to work through them. Good luck with getting the sex life back on track
As for things around here A LOT has changed Story & JR are not admins anymore,review program has changed a bit best bet is to run through the announcement threads

Thanks for the welcome.
It's great when you can figure out the problems and work through them. After 25 years together we find that is one of the most important things that keep us together.

Thanks.
I spent about an hour last night pouring over all the announcements and reading through the forums. Quite a bit of change around here. lol
Welcome back. I have missed your reviews and comments. Glad you are focusing on what is important (your family). It is wonderful that your Mom is doing better and that your financial situation is improving.
