Sharon Update Plus

After 2 days in ICU and few more in a hospital room, Sharon went home. A cast on her left hand, a few broken ribs, a twisted knee, a hip injury, and a bunch of bruises. She is getting back to a normal routine. Time and rest are her best buddy now. My eye surgery went well and I now have 20 20 vision in my left eye. I hope to get back to work in my studio. It has done nothing but gather dust for some time now. Maybe the blockage that has kept me from climbing those stairs is gone. Time will tell. I miss the old days of ITA. I have not really liked the on the road thing. The old ITA had more music it seemed. I can always listen to Pete's stories. Maybe it comes down to I am more interested in The WHO. All is good here. Ben Kweller's new CD drops in September. He plays and sings everything on it. A young songwriter that has stood his ground since he was signed at 16 in his first band Radish. Best wishes to you all. Happy End of Summer.

Thankful

Friday night my girlfriend Sharon was in a terrible auto accident. She was driving alone and swerved to miss a dog in the road. This was at night and off in the country. She went off the road and down into some kind of embankment. Long story short, she is alive and pretty beat up. An amazing fact if you saw what is left of the vehicle. She may get out of ICU today. So today I thank God and his Angels. I know no other reason that she is still here. She is one of the strongest people I know. I thank you all in advance for your prayers and best wishes.
