Thanks for the reminder. I hardly mail anything anymore, but it may be worth it to buy an extra book. My Medicare provider has already required me to mail forms twice. Not sure why these things couldn't have been handled digitally...

 

Hi Andy, been doing good for 76 days and counting now. Haven't been to the ER in over a year... I just take the meds and be a bum until it goes away. Haven't been real short of breath and no pain, so I just stay home and send kardia mobile strips to the doc.

How're things out your way? Wifey found a new job yet or she not looking?

 

I don't mail much either, but with the forever stamps, don't have to buy extra little ones to make up the difference. So, mine should last a long time.... might even go to my kids if there are any left over LOL

 

Good to hear you are ER adverse.

Wife is up at the Villa, been there 3 weeks. She will get another job but one she wants, when she wants. I think she is enjoying the semi retirement thing

 

Thankyou to everyone who posted about my recent health issue over my kidney issues . I guess the bloodwork/ labs I had done at the VA this afternoon didn't show any immediate attention needed . I will be needing at least two procedures starting in less than two weeks along with stents placed on my left kidney while my right kidney is operated on


This forum is awesome and there is so many great people here and I really appreciate the well wishes

Thankyou !!!!

 

Of the forums I visit, I enjoy this one most, by far! For as varied a group there is here, everyone has a good heart and come together when needed!

 

I’ve had two TURBT (trans urethral resection of bladder tumour) surgeries this year to remove bladder cancer. The week following surgery is quite unpleasant every time you pee, but I think it is better than being cut open. Each surgery is followed by six weekly sessions of immunotherapy infusion inserted via a catheter. I just completed session 1 of 6 from the second TURBT. The Dr is always concerned if I can pee after the surgery. I tell the Doc I’m more worried about being able to stop!

 

Thanks, we still mail our checks to the utility companies. Those checks are written on stone tablets, I know

 

HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY

 

Good morning

Happy Independence Day

 

I use what’s available. Castrol, mobile 1, pennszoil, etc.
There are basic standards and they are on the bottle so just double check and compare. If you want to get fancy with Additives and stuff do your research. Do not use a racing oil though. They have higher concentrations of zinc, etc which will have an effect on Cat converters.
I do use mobile1 but dam, it’s like water..lol

 

I was going to quote my shit starting statement but you kinda did. So I’ll add it.
OIL IS OIL…. ROFLMAO

 

The house next door is for sale. But, neighbors gave a habit of staying a few years and then moving.
Just saying..

 

Mornin’
Happy Independence Day

 

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.“

 

Good morning. Happy Independence day.

 

What's everybody grilling today? I have some brats and kielbasa. The wife made some potato salad and I'll bake some beans to finish off the meal.

 

Burgers and dogs, and yes we’re offering both mustard and ketchup

 

Coney Dogs and Chicago Dogs- restaurant. Steaks and Burgers on the Weber. And a few ice cold, locally brewed, Bells Beer
