Lifes little bumps

Its been a crazy year .
I was hoping to :
1) Do my disc brake/spindle swap, and ball joints.
2) Install a gas tank in the bed.
3) Install the Tom Langdon headers, and new glass packs.
4) Install the tilt steering.
5) Decide what wheels to install: painted smoothies, with moon caps
or spider caps ,Cragar S/S,wire wheels ,or some rally wheels.
I have all the parts but no time. Yes I know "you gotta make time"
But last September my wife stubbed her toe pretty bad which resulted in her having her right leg amputated just below her knee( long story and no she doesn't have diabetes). She has made real good progress but my priorities had to change, and the truck had to wait, I drive her ( the Truck) when I can.
Two weeks ago I come out of the store to find some one had put a nice dent on the left front fender...... ahh life.

Now this isn't a rambling "why me ?"post. I just want to thank each one of you for keeping me motivated. Your progress on your trucks reminds me that I just have to keep plugging along.
So with that said:
"THANK YOU!!!" and keep on trucking !
