60+ year old thread.

Sorry Paul. I know it's tough and the idle time to heal doesn't help. In my thoughts brother.

 

Sorry your having a rough time with the back Tom. you get some relief and healing.

 

Paul

Nothing anyone can say can ease what you are feeling.
I do know that you are much better person and had a much better
Life knowing him. Imagine him not being there. What would you have done
then? It just sucks plain and simple.

 

Tom

Take your time with this issue.
I know some people that have had mixed results with all different types of drugs, surgery, exercise. Stay on top of it.

 

MORNING Everyone ...

Love the Westins. If you look in the picture the step is slightly bowed from a trip to Centralia, PA. Saved me from body damage and only slightly bent. They look good and can hold an adult no problem. If you get them.... after the install.

Hi Rob, we're having a heat wave today supposed to hit 26*. Time to get out the shorts and tee shirts . How are you guy's doing? Anymore snow on the horizon?

Hey Paul, I want to get the Tacoma washed, but now we're supposed to get rain on Sunday. Maybe Monday?? 151 brings back memories from my younger years. In the service we had a locker in the barracks that no one used so a group of us had a couple of bottles 151 and big jar of cherry peppers....Shots of 151 and peppers for a snack. Need I say more about the stomach problems now

Hi Tom, you need a long vacation to recoup. You've been through a lot lately. Hope the doc and physical therapy can help you out. Getting old and the early years abuse takes it's toll on our bodies.

Pay all that money for insurances and still get bills or services that aren't covered. Since obcare was in it's inception, services have gone down and bills have skyrocketed up. I could rant on, but it's Saturday and I try to save rants for workdays...oh wait, I'm retired...You take care of yourself Tom.

Just remember all the good times you and him spent together and smile. I'm sure he's up stairs doing the same and raising a toast to you. So it's not just being drunk that makes you miss them more Paul, it's the down time that lets you think more about him while your drinking. Enjoy the music and raise a toast to Charlie.

No thanks on the hangover Paul...Hope you get back into the routine and get the knee back in shape, but don't overdo it. Have a good day.

Not being able to get comfortable is a real bummer Tom. I saw you were down in the computer chair at 4:45 . Hope you get some relief during the day and get in a nap or two as well.

HI Sue, . How are you and the girls doing???

 

Morning Ken

Nope no snow. Temps in the 30s and rain coming in this weekend. My hopes of any decent snow accumulation are dwindling. Mother Nature has decided to give our share to ya'll, and then some more for good measure.

 

Hello honored sixtys and young-un guests.

All these aches and pains, physical and psychic. All I can say is, it could be worse! For example, it could be snowing again. Oh, wait...

 

OK People.
just to keep some nay sayers at bay..
ROFLMAO.

I am so sore right now.
About 4 hours trimming trees and cleaning roofs.
#1 Yes i am trimming trees in the middle of winter with snowshoes on.
#2 My extended roof rake. About 25 feet long. can go to 30
#3 My shed before
#4 Eye level with shed roof
#5 all done.
Yes DAVE just in time for the new storm to hit.
Suppose to be about 40 tomorrow after so no excess weight on the roofs.

i don't need to go to the gym now..

 

Afternoon all:
Just got back from ice fishing, I waited until it warmed up to 8 deg. to go out though. It started snowing around noon, and we stuck it out until around 1:00. Temp was 18 deg. when we left, but I swear it was colder than when I got there.

Stinks with the back Tom, hopefully a chiropractor can give you some relief.

Same here, don't need no hangovers; had one about 47 yrs. ago and figured F this. Didn't help that we had to be on the small boats in case they broke loose due to gale force winds!

Neat pics. Mike. The way you are getting slammed, it's a good idea to get as much snow off the roof as possible, especially the house.

 

Great pics Mike! Thanks for posting them. That rake is impressive, really gets the job done. And yes it really is snowing here, again.

 

Was supposed to drive to Pittsburgh today (about 125 miles) for the "Pittsburgh Winter Beer Fest", but screwed up my lungs being out in the single digit cold, then on top of that heavy snow and bad roads between Erie and Pittsburgh. So here I am.

 

"Frost Lung" is what i call it. Lungs hurt just to breath. I use a wrap or my mask if it's that cold. Not pleasant especially if problems to begin with.

 

Yall take care up there . Don't need to come down with pneumonia.

 

Damn, that's a crap ton of snow.

I think I'd consider moving as little as possible for the next 30 hours.

Hang in there buddy.

x2

 

With all the flu stuff I actually got bronchitis for the first time ever. So did the wife. I'm still having ear problems 2 months after. Not quite so bad now. Dr said up to a month to come back. I'm thinking like 2 more. Everyone around has been sick. It just hangs on.

 

Mike

 

Ok

 

Not worried ... Seriously doubt you have the strength left for that.

 

Evening all:

Gotta watch what you say to us old guys, we may take you literally!
Good one Mike!!!

 

I'll tell YA. Snow shoes make you walk in a way some of us don't. I walk a little toe out and you need to be inline with them. My knees are sore as hell.

I was told to move as little as possibly for 30 hours and hang in there.
Figured I'd save time by doing both as once.....
