2020 has been a bad year in my house!

Postby Killer Barbeque » Sat Oct 31, 2020 4:25 pm

Hello everyone. I have not been here in a while. 2020 has tried to kick my butt! I will fill you in but it is a little lengthy.

In February, my mother in law took a turn for the worse while in the nursing home. They let us go see her despite the lock down. She eventually passed and we miss her a lot. My wife and I contracted covid 19 from the visits we made to the nursing home. We were both sick at home for 2 1/2 weeks but all is good now. My wife was diagnosed with cancer of the uterus and is going in for a radical hysterectomy November 13th. I am worried about this one! I hurt my left foot and surgery was required. I have a long screw in my 2nd toe and a bone fusion in my first toe.

With everything that has gone on this year, it has been hard to create an income but the bills still have to be paid so I am selling 2 smokers at an unbelievable price. If anyone is interested, please contact me. I need the help. THANK YOU!

2,000 inches of cooking area.

Man I am sorry to hear that. Praying for you and your family. I know this is cliche but keep your chin up and keep swinging away. I believe things will turn your direction soon!

Also - I don’t do Facebook but I have a friend that posts on North Texas BBQ Addicts. If you have a way you might want to post the smokers on there.

Hang in there brotha! Will be praying for you and your family. God doesn't give you anything you can't handle. Can you post some pics of the cookers? God Bless.

Wow, that's a bargain. Somebody ought to jump on that.

just FYI - Sir Sooner also suggested I place a pit on the facebook marketplace and it sold the next day.
