Hi apacheman, I just thought I'd drop in and say hi and welcome back. I know we've had cross words but I was thinking of you a night or two ago and
now you pop up. Coincidence?

I know the last thread you made was closed by staff.
I say thank you mods for eating lunch first.

You have missed a few things while you were gone.
For example, GET OUT OF CALIFORNIA NOW!!!!
and
ELEnin will get us soon!
and
Chinese invade TX!
Stay tuned for your next apocalypse.

Thank you for your concern.
My brother is still in the process of recovery. He had major shoulder surgery back in May, and the nomadic period stalled his healing, sadly. He hurts a lot, and is cranky because of it, and there is little I can do to ease his pain. We both must be patient. He is used to pain, though, and suffers it with few complaints, as always. Settling down again will no doubt make things better, but it grieves me to be able to do so little. He is a proud and stubborn man, determined to do as much as he can for himself, and helping him can be problematic at times, trying to find the line between helping too much for his pride and helping too little for his need.
My thanks to you all for your warm welcomes home.
I've come to consider ATS my main intellectual home and one of my main spiritual ones. I truly missed being here during the time away. There is no other place on the planet like it that I've found, and no other group of folks so stimulating and thoughtful.
Thirdeyeofhorus, I agree we've disagreed on things, but in the end we share more important similarities, as do we all of us on ATS: a love of questing for the truth, wherever it leads us, even if it disturbs our comfortable ruts of thought and jars us into seeing different points of view. We may not exactly accept those different points of view, but at least we see them, acknowledge them, think about them, and in doing so we change and adapt our own ways of thought, mostly for the better, I think. We may disagree at times, but you have my respect and thanks.

Oh, yes...we are planning to start a small business very soon to market some of what I'll be producing, since the size of the garden and its expected productivity should give us far more than what we need for our own use.

I actually never lost my job, it just didn't pay enough to maintain us where we were once other factors changed: loss of roommates and changed rental terms precluding more. Basically we were forced out so higher rents could be charged.

Not in Phoenix, actually, but a small town called Ramona in Southern California, near San Diego.
Not in the town, but some few miles outside in the foothills of the Cuyamaca Mountains.
It's a pretty nice view, and the stars are incredible here. Reminds me of the night skies when I was shrimping in the Gulf of Mexico, far out to sea. Not quite as free from light pollution, but close.
Yippie! It is great to see that ATS members along with your friends and family assisted you and your brother when you needed help. This one true
story has made my day. I am literally jumping for joy 
It is not often now a days that folks come out or send out their love and support by whatever means available to them. People on average seem to have become so accustomed to the "it's mine" factor that many can't see past their own nose. On any given day, your situation could very well become any one of ours. A lesson well learned on how important it is to help other fellow human beings when they are down. Thank you for sharing all that you have been through.
I'm delighted for you and your brother and hope that the coming days, weeks, months and years finds both of you successful and peaceful. Already, it sounds like you have found some peace with your new home. I'm familar with that area and it is indeed very peaceful and I'm sure you both are very deserving.
Again, may the universe continue to bless your family.

apache, thanks, and I share the sentiment. You made me think about some things, and I have to look at some uncomfortable truths. Hope all is well with you and your bro. May we be peaceful friends.
