As for me, I go in Thursday to have the nerves in my spine burned in 3 places. Hopefully that will alleviate a great deal of the pain. They say it can last anywhere between 6 months and 2 years, but it's typically around 8 months. They'll do it on the right side, then we'll see about the left if it works well for the right. Short of replacing discs which they can't do, even surgery won't help.

Good luck on the nerve procedure, mine lasted a good 6 weeks.

That is a wonderful pic, it looks like he is looking to his brother for guidance.

Yes, you have the outfit's name right.. Bodhi Leaf.. wonders will never cease.

ya... time to put this day in the trash.

oh wow........so sorry to hear this! Glad it wasn't a heart attack, but at his age pneumonia is bad. 3mg is right, and I'm sure you are thankful to still have them, but that is little comfort when you worry about one passing. Hope he recovers well from and that you and your mom both get a restful night's sleep. And your dad too!

awwwww that's great! Frankie is tolerating it better, not quite as much of a grrrr mudgeon as he was. And Ozzy is slowly learning to ask Frankie to play rather than to jump in his face and demand it.

Good luck on the nerve procedure, mine lasted a good 6 weeks.

Yuck, sorry to hear that. The steroid shots never lasted very long, but am hoping burning the nerves will last longer than that.

wahooooooo enjoy your new toy. And when shall we expect your first video???

Toy?

Ahem... you mean 'tool' don't ya?

I haven't decided yet if/when I'll post vids. To do that, I'd have to make a youtube account... and to do that, I'd have to step out of my 'protective shell of anonymity'. Maybe I'll get a 'dummy' gmail acct. and sign up with that.

The good news? Just checked Fedex tracking - it said: "on truck for delivery today"!!! yeeeehaaaaaa!!!

I should be flying by this weekend!

hey, you're just the person I need. My son can't get his laptop to play nice with my printer. So he sends me songs for church to print out in email. I can easily do it from the puter. But what do I need to print from my phone? Sometimes it says samsung cloud print, sometimes something else that I forget. What is a good free dl from the app store or whatever, to hook the phone up to my printer pleasey please

While you're debating whether or not to mask your identity, don't forget that the camera can also take still photos, which you could post rat cheer.

Time to fill it up again. I just finished the last sip from when I filled it up 2 days ago.

More coffee snob stuff: some of the best flavors don't come to the forefront until the coffee is cold... does not apply, generally, to store-bought coffee, which often needs to be hot enough to mask bitter flavors in it. I used to use a lot of milk in my coffee but shortly after I started roasting my own, I stopped using any milk or cream; so, there's nothing to get spoiled or rancid even when I'm drinking coffee that's been in the mug for days.

I sometimes drink it black, sometimes cream and sugar, but have also noticed that sometimes more flavors come out when it gets a bit cooler.

(((((((((T))))))))) It doesn't matter sometimes who has things worse, when you're scared it's such a hard thing to deal with. I want to call you but don't wanna wake you if you are sleepin. If you see this, call me. I'll be up pretty late.

Just saw this a few minutes ago. Too late now. Time to wake up the grandkids for school. I fell asleep by accident before 8 last night and slept straight through 'til 4 am. Woohoo!

Today is that special kind of day.
The kind of day that you want to record every single second
Put it into a decorative box with smiley faces all over it,
Tie it with a decorative bow,
...
...
...
And burn it out of existence.

My day started just a brief 4 hours after going to bed. 5:30 and the phone rings. I had to quickly grope for the receiver and answer.
Mom: " who am I speaking to?"
Me: "Your loving son Ken."
Mom: "<dad> had a heart attack and I've brought him to the hospital and..."
-- dial tone --
Well.. my bedside phone doesn't have much but a dial and receiver, so I turn on the lights and stumble to the living room wondering why she used my dad's name instead of saying 'your dad'.
Call her back, and, yes.. "your dad is in the emergency room now being looked over, but they don't want to call it a heart attack, just a possible heart condition."

welp. no more sleep today.
Later on, while at work, I get several texts with updates...
I like to take a nap during lunch, so I lay down on the couch and drift to sleep.... for 20 min. Mom calls again.
She doesn't remember calling me this morning and was wondering how I knew to call her... she was not really with it this morning.
Turns out that the good news is that it was not a heart problem.
The almost as bad news is that it's pneumonia.
time to sleep - 4:20 <sigh>
Then they delayed his Dialysis today until his heart started rapid pulses.

Mon called tonight at 8:30 to tell me this gem. She is exhausted as she never even got the 20 min nap. She got 6 hours of sleep, but still.
Tomorrow, she is going to go postal on the staff to make sure that his Dialysis is given in the morning like it should be.


ya... time to put this day in the trash.

Sorry to hear about your dad. Pneumonia is scary. But, at least once it's over, it's over. Unlike a heart condition.

Hopefully you got a good night's sleep and awoke to better news! Sending best wishes!

that's wonderful!!! So glad you got a great night's sleep. I just saw this.......ignore my text, you obviously don't have time to talk now with getting the grandkids ready for school lol

 

[Debadoo]

omgggg can't remember who posted it, but I am finally getting to watch the vid I've had pulled up forever of the Central Oregon Coast. I'm only about 10 minutes in, but I have literally been squealing with delight. I know that water at Devil's Churn would beat me to death if the hypothermia didn't get me first. But I have an almost insatiable insane desire to be right in the middle of that water with the waves washin over me. I don't believe in reincarnation, but if I did, I'd wanna come back as a great big rock, right in the middle of that!!!

I make a pot, turn it off as soon as it is done. I nuke each cup individually (except for the first, of course).
