Get Well Clarkie!

Well it’s been a week or so since my last update but things have been busy as hell for me. As well as trying to get around and see and thank people, last weekend i went to an MRA race in Hastings Nebraska. The track there is one of my favorite not only because of [...]

I have been back in Colorado for 5 days now trying to get used to our new house and new surroundings. I haven’t told a lot of people i am home up until now, as i don’t really want people just turning up to say hi, that will take some time.
I have been thinking a [...]

The past week has been kinda crazy for me, not a lot of ups and downs, more just a lot of things to do.
I have been busy planning and booking my flight back home and a huge thanks to my good friend William who is now a travel agent one of the Flight Centre stores in [...]

I finally feel like i am back in control of my own destiny for the first time in 6 months, ok 5 months as i still cant remember the 1st month. Nothing has really happened to make me feel like this so it’s kind of strange it happened, i know the last few days i [...]

I have been trying to [...]

I know it has been two weeks since i gave you all an update but it has been a crazy couple of weeks. It has been two weeks of both triumph and of devastation, the triumph has been in the gym and i will leave it at that. I have never liked people feeling sorry [...]

Well as far as i was concerned to bloody hot!
So here i am in hospital, i still wasn’t quite right in the head, that will become more apparent soon, but i have good memory of it which will make great reading. I was slowly getting used to my ‘tent bed’ but it was hot as [...]

Last Thursday was Mum’s day off work so after I went to the gym we went for a drive up north, it has been at least 15 years since I have been up north so it was [...]
