Hello everyone, I have missed all of the characters who make up this wonderful community.
I have thought a lot about you all in the past year.
I hope that the funk I have been in, the last year or so is going away, but I try and take things one day at a time.
About a year ago I slipped into a depression which is really not my style, I'm usually happy go lucky with a ducks back, type of guy, but something grabbed a hold of me and I couldn't shake it, my lovely wife has stood beside me through it all, and gave the support I needed.
I have recently moved into a new house, and have to get my shop set back up and hopefully update it a little bit, and I need to get my hands and brain moving back into a creative flow.
Bring creative, and making things has always been my therapy.
I also hope to return back here and continue to be a part of this great place
 
Hey Buddy, I've missed seeing you around, sorry to hear of your troubles Harry but I hope your life is getting back on track my friend, just try and stay focused and I'm sure all will be well again.

Best wishes from across the pond Brother.
 
Good to see you. Don't feel like a lone wolf, a lot of us here have gone through (or are going through) depression. It's a hard battle... but it does get better. If you ever need someone to listen, pm me.

I've wondered what happened to you Harry. Not good to hear about the downturn, but pleased to know things are in an upswing. You've made some fine pipes so very happy to hear you're returning to carving.


Cheers,

RR
 
Harry! :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

We have certainly missed you here on the forums. Heck, every pipe forum is in need of an old biker, with the skills to sling some ink! Hope to see you around on a regular basis now that things are getting back to normal.

I think the depression issue is something most folks experience at some point, but the truth is, most are not comfortable talking much about it.
 
Welcome back Harry. I'm glad things have slowly realigned. I hope everything continues getting better and that creativity starts to flow easily again. My warmest thoughts are with you. - Tom
 
Good to meet you!

Glad things are on the mend. Always nice to see the Dawn.......
 
Welcome back Harry! Great to see you back. All the best and continued good health. I look forward to seeing more of your creativity.

Harry, good to hear from you Buddy, life and it's many varied troubles eh Brother, so good to hear from you.
 
Very good to hear from you Harry. Good to know things are on the upswing. Hang in there Brother.

 
Been away myself for 2 years. Contracted an auto-immune disease called CIDP which made me lose 70% of my muscles in my arms and legs. Now I've been disabled since March. We never know what this crazy life is going to throw at us.

Glad to hear you are getting better.
