    Roger: Best of luck with your claim.

    Good morning. Did not sleep well last night so it is a late start. Off to the gym then light grocery shopping. Smoking a chicken today. We are off to Michigan on Thursday, so I need to cook extra, so my son has some food in the house while we are away.

    Evening all:

    Didn't hunt this morning, buddy had an appointment to get a crown replaced that came off 5 months ago. He said he has appointments for a shot in his toe to stop the pain, then shots in his shoulders for pain relief, then a shot in the eye, and they are talking about doing a nerve block in his spine! :eek:

    SO, changed oil in the Tacoma this afternoon and couldn't manage get the darn rock guard back in place after a couple of tries , NBD, will get it on tomorrow!
    Got the refund check today from Sunoco for the "lifetime battery", best purchase I ever made! :)

    We need rain, too. Parts of the state went in to drought status last week. We had plenty earlier in the year, but none in the last month.

    Share it?!?!?!

    Good morning fellow Porchatonians!!! Rained again here over night - I'd happily send a bunch of our rain if I could. Wettest year I can ever remember.

    Just gettin’ started
    Can very much relate to the retinal/cataract issues. Had a full retinal detachment in my right eye in 2014. Tear required the vitrectomy method for repair. After feeling like a bubble level for months, got my sight back pretty miraculously to then have the inevitable cataract develop. So lens replaced with an IOL. Then a few months later the lens was zapped to remove the clouding. Long process but amazing that it’s even possible. Good luck to anyone facing eye issues.
