It is what I am here for. Trying to get the labor day weekend in the right direction for everyone. In which I am happy to say, HAPPY FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A GREAT LABOR DAY WEEKEND!!!!!
Yep, I know exactly what you mean. My wife has been through two pretty intense surgeries so far, and they say that surgery is no longer an option because the tumors are spread out quite a bit, they are in the right lung, several in the chest wall, and more in the tissue around the liver. Chemo is really the only option, and none of it has worked so far. She's been on seven different chemo meds...
I'm right there with ya. I can be stubborn as a mule, and fight like hell when the need arises, but I don't think I'd have it in me to keep goin' down this road if it were me. I'd give it a shot for a little while, but I know that I don't have enough fight in me to do it day after day and year after year... I'm very sorry to hear about your grandma. Having to witness it, myself, I would not wish this on anyone. And I wouldn't wish for anyone's family to have to witness it either. Cancer is a very cruel disease, and most of the time, the treatment isn't any better.
Hahahhahaa!! Yeah, I probably needed that... I need to get off of here and go get some work done this morning.
Oops moment already this morning. Colton had an ortho appt this morning. I thought it was at 8:30. We get in the car at 8:20(the office is 5 minutes away), I look at the appt card and his appt is actually AT 8:20.And being the bad mom that I am almost considered letting him drive hisself to the appt.
Meh... close enough to the appointment time that they won't give ya a hard time about it. I've yet to see a doctor's office that runs on time anyway... we wait on them enough; they can wait on us from time to time.
Hope the appointment goes well, Sweet Pea.
You too, Brother! I plan on sleeping through Saturday, if I can manage it... I think I've had a grand total of 8hrs sleep in the past 3-4 days. It'll be nice to just completely relax for at least one day, then I can get some work done around the house for the rest of the weekend. Still need to get back to work on the half-bath... it's about half torn apart right now.
Alrighty... gotta get some work done, then I'll be back to catch up around the boards. Love y'all!
Hopin' to sleep in a bit this weekend. However, "sleeping in" means only 'til about 7:00-7:15 most of the time.... 
We've had PERFECT weather here the past couple of days. Highs in the upper-70's/low-80's and NO humidity. Opened windows and doors yesterday and let some FRESH air in. Perfect sleeping weather....

Did all that yesterday. I had an appointment in DC that took all morning. We got up at 0400 to go to a med appointment. Without traffic takes 1 and a half hours to get there. Well add in the DC traffic and it takes 3 hours. Fun for all. Had to get my foot checked on for after surgery checkups and now I am nervous that I may be medically separated for this. It is healing in the right direction it is just taking its sweet time. Still a lot of pain right now. I have another appointment on Tuesday to see where my military career will be headed. Hopefully they will keep me until my 20 year mark, but I do not know. It will be interesting. I have 18 years as of November. Needless to say a bit worried now.
@DingerCPA I also hear you on the 0700 sleep in thing. LDD has us getting up at 0530 to feed and potty her royal princess ..... My problem is that I am a sucker for her. Who could say no to this dumb face!!!

Appointment went great!! No more sling, no physical therapy and he basically can do whatever he wants except lift anything heavy. Another appointment in a month and then he'll be completely free from the ortho. We still have to deal with neurology though.

Truth! She is quite adorable!!!
WAH-HOOOOOOOOOOO SISTER! Praise be
One step at a time.....
All of you that will be sleeping in and off work for 3 days, think of me while I'm working for 2 of those days. I'm not complaining mind you, as I'm a firm believer in the more you complain, the more life gives you to complain about. After seeing what a 5 day paycheck looks like and a 7 day check looks like, as bad as I hate the fact of working 7 days, the money looks pretty good! Lol

Hai Brother!

You will persevere!
Oh oh oh...remember the link tejas posted to the rebuilable coil for the Cubis tank the other day from FT. Well...I was looking for a pack of CLR coils that I had ordered from FT back in February yesterday and guess what I found in the same bag...the RBA coil for the Cubis tank!! Yay!!
Praying that they work with you, Brother. You'd be better off if they'd let you have an early-retirement package instead of a medical discharge. It isn't unheard of to get full retirement at 18 years, but it is usually for rates that are overcrowded, to make room so that others can advance in paygrade. Best of luck, and if they start pointing towards medical discharge, maybe you could set up an appointment with your XO to discuss other options.
Awesome!!
Now we'll just keep fingers and toes crossed, praying, and sending all the positive energy that we can muster that neurology goes as smoothly in the near future! happy friday, all!
And a happy Friday to you, Brother, with the best of wishes for your Labor Day weekend!

Yep, I go in Tuesday to discuss my options with medical then with my COC to see where my options are heading.

@LynnNC =
for working the weekend. Then for her paycheck. LOL, and you will survive like you survive everything else darling (grumpy pants) . Then that turns into happy time for more vape gear and liquids.
I'll keep fingers and toes crossed for you too, Brother. Prayers and best wishes that they do right by you. Just don't stop at COC if things don't go your way. The XO draws a paycheck for a reason... and that is to manage personnel. They are usually more than happy to meet with you if you schedule an appointment. I had a good long sit-down with mine before I got out to discuss possible career paths if I were to reenlist, and he was quite friendly and helpful in going through stuff.
Morning Krewe! It's Friday and I don't wanna do a thing.....but I have policies to write I'll be in and out whenever I need a break from my eyes bleeding
