[AT] Hip/Case SC broken radiator belt

[charlie hill]

Glad it went well Tim.   It was the awkward positions required to work on a 
tractor that made me think you were being ambitious.  Those jobs are often 
uncomfortable for young folks with  no
problems let alone us old guys.

    This also is my 2nd hip in 5 years.  But going much better than the
first.  Am up and moving with crutches.  Had the surgery  last Thursday.
Was home Satruday night where I finally got a decent nights sleep and Monday
had Physical Therapy at my house.  Over did it and Monday night and
yesterday was wiped out.  Have walked out to the mailbox a couple of times
and went up to school yesterday to vote on budget.  Hip is solid, its just
the pain of the hole they put in my butt.
    Seems as though all the jobs I want to do require bending over and/or
getting low.  So I am just convalecing and helping alittle around the house.
And obiously at the computer more (first time I've written ATIS in a long
time).
    The several trips to the barn is what will prolong the Case radiator
belt.  You know.....one to check the situation, one to get a screwdriver and
wrench, one to ck my supply of belts (other building), one to
get...............  But the case isn't going any place.
    Enough on computers have to go do my excercises.

Thanks
Tim
