This weekend will be my last cook/smoke for a long time

[KyNola]

Sorry to hear about it Tommy.  You take good care and know we are all thinking of you.

tommy, let us know when you want to do lunch. Why no cooking? it doesn't take two hands to burn hot dogs?

It's a shame you couldn't reschedule during the winter months. Best of luck for a speedy recovery.

Like I said on the phone "Quit Whining and get to cooking something while you still can stock pile some good eats!" I give you a month before you start having serious withdrawals and have to force yourself to cook something. You gotta wipe your ..... with your left hand so if you can figure that out you should be able to cook my friend!!

Good luck with the surgery Tommy.

I know that staying away from your toys will hurt you beaucoup more than the surgery.

Wish you a speedy recovery

Good luck with the surgery Tommy, the Doc told me about a month ago that my shoulder would take 2-3 years to heal, and no Fly Fishing while it is healing. Well after a few months of no fishing I went out last week and started to teach myself how to cast with my left hand. With my 5 wt by the end of the day I was laying out 60 feet of line, then that night the wife want to go throw darts so we walked up to the local pup and I tried to throw with my right hand, no go the pain was too much, I switch to my left hand and won two games of darts. The human body is real adaptable, I figure that in two weeks you will be back at it with Kimmie's help cooking up a storm. Hey if an over weight 54 year old can learn to fly fish left handed anything is possible. ;D

Funny thing I have been trying learn how to throw darts left handed  ;D   Don't think I'll win anytime soon but I do have 6 months to learn!    As for fly fishing I wish I had to go but  I have been way to busy in the pass few years to go.   :'(

I'm going for a pair of 6 lb butts with my rub and may even do a Red Neck ham for good luck  ;)

I just had back surgery on April sixth, Never had surgery in my life (im 45), I was expected to have 2-1/2 months off from work and I went back in three weeks with a twenty pound limit (keys weigh about a ounce ;) ). I was really scared to have surgery but I am so glad I did, it has improved my life 110%. You will be fine Tommy!! I will put you on my prayer list if that is ok :)

Please do!   I have had 3 other surgeries in the last 5 years so this is nothing new.  Heck even the CEO of the center I'm going to waves my deductibles since I seem to be a regular there  ;) ;)  :-\ :-\

Anyway thank's for the adding me to the list and remember I'm only 45 as well..  I turned 40 in the hospital and 41 on the same floor one year later!

Take care Tommy and good luck with your surgery!
