Ugh! I've had enough gut trouble of my own. I feel so sorry for her! Keep us posted plese. How is your knee? And those pups?

... at least we know now what is causing it, gall stones.

OUCH! At least now y'all know.

Prayers and hope for rapid healing out to your bride!

Me too. Not fun.

It's changed, not for the better I don't think. A lot of crime and undocumented immigrants. It has some big stores though. They really got hit hard this winter and the summers are terrible thanks to the non existant global warming.

We get all the news about it in Spokane. A lot of Murders and attempts. Not safe in certain areas. I think that there is a big criminal element there not the Mexicans that work the Orchards by any means but a bunch of hoodlums and gang members.

Pups are fine, but all alone tonight, knee hurts like 7734, but that list is long.

I liked it well enough, but that was in the mid fifties. It, or even I might have changed quite a bit in the past fifty or so years.

LOL....we were there at about the same time, I think, but you said summer and my summers were all spent in Montana with my Dad...

well get em out! Those are drip tips or something in the raw!

There isn't enough left to do anything with them.

love that! so kewl of you to send em to her.

Today I sent her the mistake and another good one just because she is worth it. She worked with me at my last duty station. I was out making rounds one day and she was taking a break. While we were talking she mentioned that being a single mom, it was hard to date and she couldn't afford a babysitter. Nancy was deployed to Saudi at that time so I had a lot of free time on my hands. I told her I would be happy to babysit so she could go out. I had a lot of fun babysitting her 4 year old. That little guy is now a Sgt in the Marine Corp.

I have about 80 or so post to get caught up on and will do that tomorrow. Right now it is bed time.

Today we're headed for the Florida Keys for 4 days. Getting together with 5 other couples that we've known since school days. So, here we sit, all ready and an hour early. That's almost worse than leaving late - I keep thinking of more things to pack!!

Yup. If I'm not running late, I'm running early. I hate to wait around. I definitely understand.

How did y'all manage to keep in touch with 5 couples for that many years?!

Wow my Gdaughter and Gson in law are at the airport in El Paso, she goes from there to Dallas, then non stop to London, then to Dublin. They were going to go out tomorrow night but will have to wait till Saturday there is no alcohol served on Good Friday in Ireland.

I'm glad they made it ok. What a romantic idea!

That's some pretty energetic dancing! I think you're getting in better and better shape. I think making videos is turning out to be excellent exercise! Maybe I should start making videos. Or, maybe just start dancing.

Welp, the wife is in the hospital again with her pancreas, at least we know now what is causing it, gall stones. Good thing we have all that affordable healthcare...

I'm so sorry. I hope all goes well. At least, you have a starting point now.

Well, I'm going to try to sleep. I hope I'm successful.

Good luck with that.

Hi, everybody! I'm still here!

I agree with you. If it wasn't for the little bit of exercise I get from those dances I'd often get none at all. About a week ago you said that you thought I might have actually had both feet off the ground at one point. So, on the next video I actually did a very, very small jump, like 1 inch off the ground, after which my back made a reasonable request that I proceed slowly if contemplating an inch and a half.

Yup, I noticed that. I thought I had quoted that video, but apparently lost it somehow. So, I guess your back isn't ready for bunny hops YET.

Wishing her the best! Gallstones can be murder, and pancreatitis far far worse. Holding good thoughts.

 

[Nermal]

Yes. I have known two people who had acute gall bladder problems and they both said it was the worst pain they had ever had.

The witch of it is anytime you eat something with fat in it, it causes a flare-up. And you would be surprised how many items contain hidden fat. Been there, done that, got the scars. I truly feel for her.

 

[cigatron]

Gee its fun getting old. Watching Game o Thrones from the beginning and don't remember it so fart.

Heeheee, if that makes you feel better.

That house was built in the late 70's & they've remodeled the whole thing. Put in a pool, & extended the patio by adding a low, wide deck all the way across the back. All covered. Lots of great outdoor space! I love the place!

oh that sounds sooooooo nice! I still dream of sitting on Sea Peach's lanai. I want one so bad now. Like being outside without all the bugs!! I saw a big comfy chair and ottoman through the patio doors when she was giving me the house tour.......pointed to the chair, and told her, if you need me while I'm here......that's where I'll be!

I don't know if you've ever had a fairly close glimpse of a 777 flying but at my MIL's house they fly over everyday on the way from Moses Lake where they take the pilots of the new ones to, to practice take off and landing.

If they could land those and take off on a lake, they were really good

It was kind of cool when I was 15 I was in the CAP and the USAF flew us all over from Paine Field AFB (does not exist now) to Fairchild and we stayed there for a week. Got to take a tour of a SAC base what they would let us see but one of the high points was the tour of the B-52. We got to go inside and it was amazing for such a big plane how cramped it was. They explained all about them, they had 8 engines, wheels on the ends of the wings because the wings were so long and heavy that they would bow down when they landed and up when they flew. They flew us over in the old C119 flying boxcar. Got to go up in an old L5 and take the stick for a while. Pretty cool.

oh how kewl!! Specially the part about the wheels on the wings.

Yep I went to Basic Training at Ft. Lewis

My son went to basic at lost in the woods, but was at Lewis twice for pre-deployment training, before it became JBLM. Was there for a bit after deployment as well.

An amazing and awesome multi-generational air frame/weapons platform! Worked on 'em (B-52Fs wid actual tail gunner, not remote as wid da Gs) at Carswell AFB, 'Cow Town', Tx in '66.

Oh da tales to tell...

There's always tales to tell in Cow Town!!

And da alert pad chow hall kicked azz!

Hopefully not cuz it coulda been a last supper

Achooley the Goose juice sounds good too.

I think that's the one a friend of mine loves!

Awaiting a personal ECFer Keys weather report...

Hopefully they are havin wayyyyyy too much fun to fool with us.

Welp, the wife is in the hospital again with her pancreas, at least we know now what is causing it, gall stones. Good thing we have all that affordable healthcare...

ouchies Really glad they figured out what's causing it, but so sorry she has to go through that. Do they need to do surgery to fix it, or something else?? Sorry your knee (and everything else) is still so painful. I hate what you have to live with pain wise. That bird video was cute! Give the pups cookies from Aunty Deb. But Imma lousy Aunty, why did I think you had only the one.

While we were talking she mentioned that being a single mom, it was hard to date and she couldn't afford a babysitter.

awwwwwww that was so sweet!

Or, maybe just start dancing.

or change your screen name

Yipes. Years ago we'd been expecting an ice storm.......ended up being a lot (for us) of snow. 2 am, my son was asleep on the couch.......woke him up to see the white blanket outside. It's a rare thing for us. We had a big cement slab for a kinda porch, and there was the perfect unmarred blanket of white. He took a jump off the step, and landed in the middle of it. I thought....(ok, didn't think) that it looked like fun, but I just did a tiny bunny hop and not off the step. Back locked up and I could barely walk for 4 days.

Mornin y'all.......I got coffee and donuts

@therussellv, hope things get better for both your wife and you!
