Warning...self indulgent whining and hypochondriacle self diagnosis ahead
So I have developed a resting tremor, very annoying, and was worried about it, and as one does these days, I looked it up on the internet. It seams I have some of the early signs of Parkinson's disease. I have discussed it with a Doctor and we are going to withhold one of my medications for a month to see if it is merely a side effect, then if it persists, I will be tested. One of these days I'm gonna catch a break.
Whining concluded, back to your regularly scheduled frivolity.

Oh Russell, if you didn't have bad luck you would have none. Hum, that would be better! Best wishes for something positive for you. 
Noper, ya need to keep your bones intact...
Seriously Russ, we're prayin' as hard as we can! Please keep us posted...
It's a colesteral drug, so the bones are not involved

I hate to be a Debbie Downer, but I think if I don't get this out of my system, I won't be right for days.
Nobody likes bad news, but it started with that shooting in Baton Rouge. The video was extremely disturbing, and many people are upset, including me. I wasn't there, so I can't actually say what went down. It was just disturbing as hell.
Then right on top of that was the other shooting in Michigan. That one tore me up as well, and I didn't sleep well for a couple of nights.
Then last night, I get this phone call about the crap that went down in Dallas. I didn't have a clue what was going on because I had just gotten up from a nap and I don't have cable, so I had to hit the Internet to see what was happening. That was the icing on the cake. SO, today, I tried to stay away from any type of news because I had just had enough.
So, this evening, I get out of the house and I go to a concert. My daughter plays in the Lafayette Community Concert Band. What a grand group of talented musicians they are!! I was sitting there with my eyes closed immersing myself in the beauty of the music, and the next thing I knew, tears were just rolling down my face. I guess all the horrors of the last few days was just too much and I just let it go.
I'm off to bed now and I'm swearing off the news for a few days. It's just all too much.

Turn it all off, Roto! I'm limiting my exposure, too. I have a nephew on law that is a LEO. Several retired griends h relayives. It's hard & these are sick people.
How about one of those sea going apartment houses that rich people can live on year around. Then you gotta worry about pirates. The problem with the deserted island would fastech deliver there?Cozy up to da hedge funders...
Ah ha, FT... if ya can wait on da shippin'.
Apparently sum of us already do...
BTW, think I'd rather have a HUGE seagoing yacht so I could select where and when I wanna go and which beach to dig my toes in; especially when da Bud Lite Lime gets low or a 'cane/'phoon gets in da way...

Oh yeah baybeee...
Now THAT'S what I'm talkin' 'bout Willis!!
I'm way past learning to fly a chopper, but I could be the navigator! - permanently stationed on that little 'boat' though - and just takin' the bird to town once a week for groceries, Bud Lime, and whatnot.
Hoping it IS a side effect, or a by-product of not enough rest and too much stress. Thoughts and prayers are with you, Russell. It's enough, already!
Yes. Horror abounds. Fortunately, so does beauty. Music has the ability to heal an exhausted and wrung out soul. I'm glad you were able to experience some release. {{{{Roto}}}}
@Rotowoman , I know how you feel. When the Pulse shooting happened, the Orlando network news stations broadcast ONLY that for literally 4 days, 24 hours. Thank goodness for TNT and USA and SYFY, and downloaded TV shows because I just could not take it anymore. All these shootings are so horrifying. My husband was in Dallas with a friend for dinner not far from where the shootings took place when it happened. Way too close for comfort for me. Both my son and I suggested he go back to eating in the motel room..... Our local network stations still broadcast local news, but I only watch for the weather now days and I know when they broadcast it (that or online Acuweather!).
