Topic: Strummerboy Bill, hope you're ok!

Hey - just wanted to send a quick note out there to the webs.  Bill hasn't been on since the end of April.  We're thinking of you here Bill.  Hoping all is good with you and Dondra.  If you're lurking, just drop a line to let us know you're good.  Anyone heard from him lately?

I promised you we'd keep an eye on ya, so here I am.  smile  Hopefully, you're just too busy playing your guitar to be bothered to get online.  That'd be totally understandable.  Like I said though, I promised I'd keep my eyes open and ... I don't see you!  wink

Amy, Bill's last blog entry was March 14th.  I too am concerned & hoping all is well.

Hey Bill. Answer us buddy.

You can see all my video covers on [url]http://www.youtube.com/bensonp1000[/url]
I have finally found happiness in my life.  Guitars, singing, beer and camping.  And they all intertwine wonderfully.

Re: Strummerboy Bill, hope you're ok!

Dear Friends

I'm okay and so is Dondra. Thanks for thinking of us.

We're just working through some serious stuff right now (nothing to do with the marriage - that's just as tight as ever), and I haven't spent as much time with y'all or my instruments as I would like. Also, not on the net as much.

I haven't forgotten you at all, especially Graham (hoping he's better) and I love you guys and ladies and miss you too.

I'll be back on as soon as things are a little more normal around here.

Your friend and fellow picker always,

Bill Craig

PS: Dondra says, "Hey"

Glad to hear you're OK.  Not glad to hear that you're having a time of it.  Best of luck.

Re: Strummerboy Bill, hope you're ok!

Hey Folks

I think my life's normalized a little more now. I was having some really bad personality changes due to some meds my doctors wanted me to try. Unfortunately, they didn't titrate the dosages of meds I was already on, so things got really unpleasant with me for a while.

I had a meltdown on another site I frequent and wound up getting suspended for a week, so I didn't want the same thing happening elsewhere - especially here, so I imposed a self-exile.

Hope you all are doing okay and we'll talk soon.

Thanks

Bill

Good to hear from you Bill. I understand how those med changes can mess you up sometimes, but it sounds like you have a handle on it and thats good.

Re: Strummerboy Bill, hope you're ok!

So great to hear from you, Bill! Good health to you, and I trust the docs will get your meds normalized. We're all still strumming along here, but we've saved you a seat at centre stage! wink

Re: Strummerboy Bill, hope you're ok!

Glad everything is working out for you and are getting better. Best advice I can give you is to never take a viagra tablet when you are all by yourself for an extended period of time.

Re: Strummerboy Bill, hope you're ok!

Those never work for me anyway, NELA.

I tried them once ---- nothing. A couple of nights later, Dondra woke me up saying, "Honey! Honey! Wake up! You're having a nightmare!!"

"A nightmare?", I asked, groggily.

"Yeah, you kept bouncing up and down screaming, 'I WANT MY 4 HOURS, DAMMIT' " smile

------

That is an original joke written by me and any of my friends here are welcome to use it at anytime. I don't try to sell them anymore.......

Have a great weekend, my friends!

Re: Strummerboy Bill, hope you're ok!

LOL!  Bill!  That's funny.  smile

Good to see you back in action on the webz.  I'm even happier to hear that, while you may have had a rough time of it, you were able to see what was happening. That's difficult in a LOT of situations.  I'll assume you're feeling much better, and expect to see you around more.  It's good.  Been quiet here without ya.
