<p>[QUOTE=&quot;4to2centBC, post: 2268373, member: 76181&quot;]Retelling it involves reliving it and it is still a bit exhausting to recount.</p><p><br /></p><p>Part III</p><p><br /></p><p>So it is a cold December morning, Dec 22nd to be precise and I am now trying to change jobs (so I can be home with the still traumatized family,) I have lost my coins, the insurance is a sham, Christmas is in a day and well, life pretty much sucks because people suck. We have our health. And as Sam Malone of Cheers once replied &quot;I have my health? is that how bad things are, that I have to resort to...I have my health.&quot; In fact our health was important to us. Tragedy was all around...........and then....... the mailman........... drove up the driveway.</p><p><br /></p><p>Unshaven, crabby, sullen and defeated I head out to see my mailman of 12 years. I can see Gerard carrying a large cardboard envelope with what would turn out to be a signed delivery from Australia. What I didn&#039;t mention earlier, but my trembling hands already knew, was that the Augustus from Ephesus (where I have been), the one with my birth sign (Capricorn), the plate coin out of my edition of Sutherland, THAT coin had gone to a collector in Australia.</p><p><br /></p><p>Let me say now, that I guess I lied, I can&#039;t finish in this post, but let me paste here exactly what I posted on Dec 23, 2012 a day after I signed for that envelope. Because I don&#039;t want to dilute or lose what happened. I just re-read it and I forget at times how much it really meant. It is long so I will put it in the next post that follows.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
