David Love www.davidlovepianos.com ? ? Kudos to Ron for putting it into perspective. I have had a few customers(very few) call and advise me that there was flu. bronchitis, etc. in their home. Unless they preferred I didn't come because it was inconvenient to them, I kept the appointment. ? I have a schedule to keep, a living to earn, a job to do unless I am incapacitated? or requested not to, I will be there to do it. ? When I fell and tore my rotator cuff on the shoulder of?my right arm, my tuning arm,?a full tear I found out later, I went to the walk-in clinic that day where the doc diagnosed it as a muscle tear. I continued tuning the next day, Nov. 10 right through Christmas season and all of January and finally had an MMR on Feb.1 which showed the full tear. Downtime for surgery is 6 months, I'm self-employed! I'm not a professional sports player, there are no rules against it,?so I get a cortesone shot about 3 times a year and I manage.? ? A cold, the flu??A minor annoyance, besides they have these things called flu shots, haven't had the flu in years. Only get a cold every couple of years. ? Mike? I intend to live forever. So far, so good. Steven Wright -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
