That is the great thing about this little piece of our world here......

We don't whine unless it is out a bottle and I here you on the better 1/2......

My problem with that is she just gave us a scare.......

Stress test Friday and a "Nuclear test" today for chest pain Luckily nothing drastic found but DR will talk to us in a few days with the definitive results

Wait, what Mikey grew a year younger............there he goes being one up on me again

 

bless her i hope all comes out well

 

Knee replacement surgery isn't all that bad !!

 

you know from what everyone has told me they say if shoulder messes up again( the rt 1 is about shot to) that a replacement heals better and faster

 

Sometime I'll bust your bubble on that one.
Take care my friends. My pillow is calling....
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

 

goodnight

 

Shoulder replacement surgery is pretty intense and a hard surgery to do . A Marine buddy of mine just had it done about 8 months ago . He was in the OR for almost 3 hrs , a typical knee replacement is just under 1-1/2 hrs

 

I'd prefer not to, if I can avoid it..... Figure it'll be in my future though

Figure I'll have surgery on them in the future, too.

 

I'm maintaining thanks. To keep good grass here is a nightmare depending on the type of grass you have . We have two small areas to mow, and it's professionally treated for bugs every other month and It's irrigated. Looks like summers here in the south!

 

night night Mike..... don't let the bed bugs bite

 

Gonna spend a bunch on my back yard here soon.... need to have the yard leveled out, then seed. Oh, and fix the sprinkler lines I broke when removing trees. Don't treat for bugs due to the dogs. Thankfully they haven't been a real issue it stays that way.

 

One knee surgery, one ankle surgery, sounds like I got off easy compared to this group.

 

My medical history reads in two parts.....Pre-50 and Post 50. Pre is a blank slate. Post is overlapping episodes. I'd be down with just a few months with no impending surgeries, no lingering illness', and less than 15 pills a day.

At any rate.....Here I am. Today will (hopefully) be a relatively quiet day. Most of the crew will be putting up wind screens on the tennis courts. No (scheduled) meetings, which is good. Maybe home on time today!!!!!!

 

Same here.
No problems before 50 and making up for it after.
If I had only known that in my 20's I would have done a lot more "stuff"

 

A few of the issues I have NOW are the result of things I did when I was younger....Lingering dirt bike injuries primarily.....

Most of the problems are just about getting older....I shouldn't whine about it....A few friends on mine never got the opportunity to get old.

But. I'll probably continue to whine from time to time.

 

Good Morning Peeps!

 

Morning

 

Below freezing this morning, with a pretty good frost. But it's up over 45 already, and looks to be a great day. Looking forward to getting back working on the car (clutch swap) this evening.

I think I've got you all beat in the pills department. 9 pills of 7 different medications. Half of which are to keep my blood pressure/heart rate down to slow the growth of an abdominal aortic aneurism. I have to go in every 6 months for ultrasounds on it. The surgeon told me it's only a matter of time before I need to have the operation, and I'd like to hold off on that as long as possible. Open aortic surgery is pretty risky, and it's a lottery I don't care to win.

 

Morning all, hope it is a great day for you. Looks like it might rain here on our parched earth, that would be nice

 

Morning all,

Reality of working for Mopar kicks in when you see "stupid people" recalls in the nightly news

Dam , I really need to "Fund my own Office" again problem is, I better buy one with a bunk....................the Bride will have me sleeping in it
