It has been a few years since I wrote a blog on this site. So, I'll catch you up on a few things.
1) First off, I was briefly engaged in the winter of 2012/13. It didn't last. I am convinced she was running around on me. It is what it is. I've been single since then pretty much, with no desire to rush into another relationship.
2) In the fall of 2014, I had neck surgery, a double fusion. The disc between C4-5 in my neck was herniated(picture a jelly donut being squeezed until the jelly comes out -- that was what it looked like in my neck). I had several bulging discs as well...and all of that caused a narrowing of my spinal canal in addition to actually pinching my spinal cord and nerves. So, I was pretty messed up for half of 2014 until I had that fusion. I still have some pain, but I'm doing much better than one year ago. However, I have the chance of needing additional fusion down the line if I start having additional issues with other discs in my neck.
3) I actually got to live one of my dreams in the spring of 2013, when I intercepted a small tornado with my friend Corey. I've always wanted to be involved in the warning process when it came to severe weather. I am a spotter with my local NWS office, which is a huge step in that direction.
Those are just a few of the developments since 2010. Otherwise, it's been the basic stuff we all deal with in our lives.
