Seeing how you're a couple of days behind, I'll let you know how it is. Monday wasn't too bad. Actually a nice day. Tuesday, though, forget about it. Deluge all day. So make sure you wear your wellies tomorrow...

 

Morning

 

Buna dimineata
Coffee

 

Good morning Dog gets a ride to the vet this morning for checkup. After I get some more coffee. And some of that work thing for me on either side of it.

 

Good Day to All

Saw doc yesterday again for ear ringing. Referred me to a specialist. Not until the 23rd of July. Then I had my annual hearing test at work, didn't do so good. Time will tell.

 

UGH. SCHOOL.......
More shit to know

 

Good morning all.

 

Morning all

Love going there, but there always seems to be a fight breaking out.
That and the fact my wife and kid HATE baseball

 

Actually yesterday was not bad. Temperature was right at 100 (very tolerable), hardly anyone out where I was working. Very few interruptions, all in all a decent day.

Good morning.

 

Good morning all. Need coffee, local temps have dropped by about 20 degrees overnight from highs in the mid 80’s to mid 60’s!

 

Morning All,

Is this week over yet ? ;( Spent 5 hrs yesterday getting a 3 page test result and a image disk from. ..TADA the VA ...3 page report took 20 min the image disk ..yeah separate part of the building , 1 machine can do the DVD image disks , it had frozen on someone else's and they did not notice ....FML. That is the short version. But on the upside I did not need bail nor have to talk to a head shrinker again so there is that .

Cold beer tastes better

 

And doesn't have to be nearly as cold in order to be "cold".

 

So our 25th wedding anniversary is coming up in February, and we were thinking about someplace in Europe. Problem is, that's winter and Europe in winter kinda sucks (unless you really like to ski). I thought maybe going to Montreal would be cool, as they have winter festivals, it's a shorter flight and the Canadian dollar is really low these days. We also thought about Arizona or New Mexico to see the high desert sites. What would you'll do?

 

Hope they can help you with the ringing. My 2005 adventure with tinnitus turned into a circus.
First ear doc said I had hearing loss on both sides. I told him I have ringing in only one ear, but both ears connect to one brain.
Second doc did a bunch of tests, found no issues, sent me for an MRI to check for tumors.
During the MRI, the tech pulled me out and asked if I had headaches or suffered recent head trauma, I said "no, why?" He didn't respond.
Found out that the MRI showed a really big cyst in my head, thought I had something fatal, waited for the report.
Report said it was just fluid cyst, possibly from a long ago car accident, neurologist didn't think it would kill me (well, kill me anytime soon).
After second MRI (to check if cyst was getting bigger) I decided to stop worrying about the ringing and press on.

 

I wanted to tour the castles in Scotland but plans changed. I’d also like to ride the train from coast to coast in Canada

 

Probably a good time to go to Europe. Less crowds.
Have you ever been? Too much to see all at once, i would see and eat my way through one country, probably Italy. It is far enough south that it will be a nice winter.

 

Southern Germany or Bavaria is always nice despite the weather. Good food, good beer, nice people.
