And to my dogs, you're barking on MPW Digital, presented by Heath Riles Barbecue.

I hope you're having a good Monday.

And after a week of being away, I'm glad to be back with you guys.

Listen, with all of the ice and snow and power outages, I hope you and your family are doing well.

Obviously, a lot of Mississippi got hit hard, North Mississippi specifically.

And so I hope everybody's doing better.

I know there's still some people without power,

which is really crazy to think about.

And I pray that you and your family are okay.

And everybody in the end ended up being safe.

And, you know,

hopefully the only thing that was, you know,

the things that we can repair, you know, fences and unfortunately roofs, I've been there.

They're all things that you can fix, but, you know, we only get one life here on Earth.

And so I hope everybody's safe.

I'm glad to be back with you guys.

I was out last week because the first part of the week we had power outage issues.

Second part of the week, I was just under the weather. And then I was trying to push through. And if you're a guy like me, you don't like going to the doctor. I just, I don't. I'm sorry. I don't like it. It's not fun. Well, it was Thursday or so. I was feeling really bad, but I was like, I've got to get to the doctor because,

A, I don't feel good, and I got to take care of my daughter, and then B, I had a 10-mile race on Saturday to get ready for it. And I was like, I really want to run that race with a friend of mine. And so I went to the doctor, got some stuff done, you know, got the shot and, you know, some antibiotics. And boom, you know, I thought, well, maybe this will help me feel better. And Saturday rolls around. I did not have a good enough voice to do a show. I tried talking for a while. And I was like, there's nothing I can do here. So we pushed a Saturday for the race. And I don't know if you guys went outside Saturday, but it was unbelievable.

The felt like temperature felt like was one.

And where I was in the Birmingham area for the race and there were snow flurries all the way through.

However, finished all 10 miles, didn't stop.
