The Badass is like what I have but the XL feels close, with a little more pressure on my forehead than the like. The HD is a little nicer but the xxl feels just right. The HD has a little of that mushroom top look , but it has a drop down sun visor and zip in ear flaps. It also looks more like it would actually pass DOT testing. I went with the HD , looks be damned . I know I should be a large but I went with what felt best.

Evening Woods. Quick check in. TLT is here with me. Possible release date of next Friday. Then I will have continued Home Health care and continued PT. The goal is, when the time comes, I don't have to completely relearn to walk.

Doc was not amused either, to the point he put another one right back in.

Scheduled for another looky looky next Friday, and it will probably remain in 2 weeks after that, so now I'm not amused.....
