Life sucks sometimes. My personal record was a 20# weight loss in two weeks...let's see, in 8 days had a dog die (drowned and had to walk in up to my chest to recover), a friend and her 5 y/o son die when she rear-ended a parked tractor trailer (fiancee was following moments behind...), and got the let's just be friend's talk from the one girl I was ever in love with. Didn't really have much of an appetite for a while... Talk about with friends or family. Clergy also. Get out and do things -- and I can tell you from personal experience, going on a vacation may not be best...at least alone...gotta do something where you're *not* thinking about it. That means get a tractor to restore or something to just keep your hands and mind busy. Or going on a vacation with someone whose a chatty kathy who'll keep your mind of it. If you don't come out...or especially if you seem to be "cycling" with good days that are good, and bad days that keep getting worse...don't be afraid to seek some professional help. Your doctor could help; clergy may have a good reference; if you have health insurance there's a good chance they can refer you somewhere. If you work for a company of any significant size, they'll have a EAP (Employee Assistance Program) you can call and they'll hook you up and probably cover a few sessions. Pyschologists will do, most likely you'd see someone called a Clinical Social Worker who can handle the fairly common problems like this without seeing the Doc.

No. I am just happy to have their friendship. At least the word "farmer" is in my title. But what is the attraction? How can I explain the sensation and exhilaration I feel when I turn the key and hear the engine come to life (most
