• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Dave & Teddy's Most Excellent Adventures 2012

Can you do me a favor and save a few of those pain pills for me for camping this summer. You won't need them all. :joke: Rest well tonight. :thumbup: Are the nurses hot ???
 
So happy everything went well!

:agree: What Scotty said about keeping us up to date and missing Teddy.
 
Great news Dave, hope you're home in the AM and reunited with Teddy. Then on to healing and back in the saddle sooner than you think. :yes::ohyea: Then oh joy, back to work:gaah:
 
Dave, Kev and I are praying for a speedy recovery. Glad to see you posting so soon after surgery. Take care. Can't wait to meet you and Teddy!!!! Take care. Much love from your Spyder Family!!
 
The lil guy isn't even here, but he's still making ppl's day

I brought our 7" Galaxy Tab with me to the hospital so I could keep y'all updated on my progress & one of the nurses saw it & asked about the background pic of Teddy, so of course, I had to show her his pics & even the video of him ryde'n on the back & she was busting out in laughter. Then the word musta spread, cause another nurse wanted to see & then another. One even thanked me & said that familiar phrase, "You know, I was bummed out cause I got called in tonight, but see'n that, you just made my day, thank you!"

Hearing that never gets old, puts a smile on my face & that warm fuzzy fealing in my heart:rolleyes:

This has been one helluva night

Guess they were pumping me full of liquids with that IV cause I had to get up & go to the bathroom 9 times over night. Needless to say, I haven't got much sleep at all & yeah, get'n out of bed is extremely painful right now. Thank goodness for Morphine & muscle relaxers :bowdown: This Pod, where I am, the nurses walk around with a portable computer on wheels, almost like a robot of sorts, but thats how anything & everything is tracked, including me. Everytime they give me something, they have to scan my bracelet & then whatever they are giving me & also scan their key card. Well their "robot on wheels" is also on line & earlier in the night, I had told the nurses about Teddy & how he's got his own thread on SpyderLovers.com where we chronical our Spyder'n Adventures. Next thing I know, she's got this site pulled up on her robo-puter & she's asking me how to find Teddys Adventures thread :firstplace::rolleyes:
 
So glad to hear the good news. Yes the surgical site is a bit tender, but just think you are up and walking and soon you will be home with Teddy by your side. Praying for a really quick recovery so you and Teddy can get back on the sled. Love from your Spyder Family. Heal quick:yes:
 
Aint that the truth * Teddy has new fans, including my surgeon

Dave what if, Someone put Teddy in bag and brought him up? That would be the best medication.

My surgeon just left after telling me about what all he found while he was in there. They got me up & walking using a walker & then, very slowly, up two flights of stairs. Thought it was gonna kill me, but I had to do it if I wanted to be released today, so I grinned & beared it, gotta get home to Teddy. He asked about my living situation & I explained its just me & Teddy but we also have family & friends that stop by & check on us daily. So of course, the scene repeats itself & I show my surgeon the pics & vids of the Tedster & you could just see the enthusiasm in his eyes as he watched the vids of Teddy do'n his thang. My surgeon is a young guy, guessing late 20s or early 30s & he was taken by the Spyder, said he had no clue about them, but was deffinately gonna look into them now. And he asked me to bring Teddy with me when I go to see him for my follow up visit in a week & a half. Such a lil dog brings SO much JOY to SO many :yes: I'm one lucky guy to have him in my life & get to enjoy share'n his JOY with so many :joke:
 
Great news. Hope you get home to Teddy today. Kev has our bike in pieces putting lights on. Oh boy hope he hurries and gets done. I want to go riding today.
 
WHAAAAAHOOOOO!!!!!! yer almost home!!!!! Thank God you did ok and all will be better soon. the Tedster Beats pain any day!!! He'll get ya feelin even better. Think you can sell a :spyder2: to your doc???
 
Dave Great to hear your doing so well, here's to a speedy recovery.:clap::yes: Tell your doc he can use your copay for the down pmt on his new :ani29::rolleyes:
 
Heck, he couldn't even get a decent dinner & a movie for my co-pay

Dave Great to hear your doing so well, here's to a speedy recovery.:clap::yes: Tell your doc he can use your copay for the down pmt on his new :ani29::rolleyes:

Well, I DO have insurance, so my co-pay for Specialists is only $40 :bowdown: so I don't think that'll give him much financial incentive :roflblack: Now as far as how much my insurance company pays him in total for the surgery, thats a whole other story :shocked: No clue how much that'll be for him :cheers:
 
So Glad to be home with Teddy, but WOW, percocets don't help near as much as morphine

:yes:I'm SO PROUD of Teddy, staying all by himself for the first time overnight & he didn't tear anything up, nor even had an accident :yes:

:clap:He musta licked me up & down for a solid 5 minutes:clap:

Its good to be home, but I didn't realize how much pain I would be in durring this recovery period.
While in the hospital, I was given morphine for the pain, along with muscle relaxers & that made the pain very manageable.

But now that I'm back home, its back to the Percocets & Flexeril, and well, its not nearly as effective, I'll just say that.
Just getting up from a sitting position is a major challenge right now.
And I gotta remember no BLTs
B
ending . Lifting . Twisting

This too shall pass with time​
 
:congrats: on being home............all will be better in time. Hope you are in 1st class shape for Spyderfest. It's not the same without you and Teddy.:2thumbs:
