F&$@ Ticks, that’s our dogs opinion

 

Well damn. I’m glad they got your BP meds straightened out and the brain scan is clear. RMSF is not something you expect to hear. Good luck with your treatments.

 

It isn’t exactly great news, but it’s great that it’s something identifiable and treatable. I hope it clears up fast!

 

I'm glad to hear that you got answers but sorry to hear you have Rocky Mt Spotted Fever. Get well soon.

 

It’s good to hear you got a this is the cause answer they seem so elusive these days. I hope the treatment gets you back to normal very soon

 

Well this paint and put down some new flooring has taken a turn. The good side is it’s not going to cost me any labor
But I am going to need some bengay!!

 

Hello everyone , I am back in another Tacoma. Let the fun begin.

 

Hey Marty I think you could get a job as a carpenter you pull one thread and see what happens. You’re doing it right , might as well replace all the rot while you’re in there.

 

Creepy crawlies are probably hiding down there!

Congrats

 

That’s the only way to do it just Wade in and get it done and try to laugh lol.

 

Probably I keep looking over my shoulder!!

 

Wait, whut??? I've been type 1 since 1981 and never heard this, unless you are talking Somogye effect?
For the past 2 weeks or so I wake up between 3:25 and 3:28 and my brain simply launches into flight. About work. Then I read a little until I'm falling asleep again, put the book down, and the brain re-engages. Sometime about 4:45 I might fall back asleep, then wife's alarm goes off at 5:00
I attended a "class" on work burnout today, and I'm definitely in the NEEDS INTERVENTION stage.

 

But the best part is when I finish the master the wife is probably going to say honey you deserve a good fishing trip!!

 

Yeah that's gonna be a fun indoor project! Those are the best types!


On the RMSF: I wear tick gear all the time, use the spray, head cover.... Everything. Never even saw a tick bite this year. Had several ticks on me, none attached. Just goes to show: living outdoors in our woods can get ya Everytime.

My daughter pointed out that now I'm a "dot" on the map. Pic to follow.

 

"I'd like to check you, for ticks"

 

No good could come from that!

 

OOh those wires are close to the tops of the joists. It never fails to amaze me when plumbers or other electricians drill in the top or lower 1/3 of the framing instead of the center 1/3- one of my pet peeves.

 

Yea that and cortisol, and dawn phenomenon.
I’m kinda brittle too..
Just variations of hi and low and it always seem to hit me at 3am…
Plus I have to pee.. lol
