If you&#8217;ve been counting, I&#8217;m three &#8220;contest winners&#8221; behind. The two who tied for 130,000, Nic and Donna, and the winner at 140,000, Don. I&#8217;m not sure what to do about it. It&#8217;s been a weird, WEIRD busy time [...]]]></description>

The first time I put it on him, he just cried&#8230; couldn&#8217;t move and cried! 30 days of strength training later and he can at least move his arms (more like a weak wave), though sitting up for [...]]]></description>

Big News! Our second sponsor is another friend Mike and I go a ways back with. We are all about cronyism here. He is one of Mike&#8217;s rock climbing buddies. And just as important, he&#8217;s our financial advisor. And in 2009, when our income went from,
