Not too long after I posted about going to visit my father, I got another call from one of my brothers. Dad was placed into ICU this morning. He was bleeding internally. (Heavy sigh) By the time my other brother and I got there, he had already received 3 units of blood. This afternoon they will be doing a scope to see if they can find out where the blood is coming from. I'm only home now to try to catch up on yard work, laundry, and eat. I have to try to tie up all loose ends today, because I may wind up Dad sitting. His wife is still recovering from knee surgery, bless her heart, and she's trying to do it all. Not if I can help it.

We had a really bad ice storm about 5 years ago and I fell in my driveway. I have 4 herniated disc and 2 tears in my lumbar. Pain is my life.
He's not on blood thinners, is he?
Hope they get him sorted out and better soon, Roto.
More thoughts and prayers your way.
Jeez Roto. So sorry for the bad news. Like I said earlier I will definitely keep him in my prayers, you too of course.
Remember you have your own health concern-- don't forget to take that to your doctor.
All my prayers. You have enough of your siblings around there, to help.
Geez - it just keeps raining on you ... but the sun will shine again. Prayers for you and your Pop.
Oh my! ... aarrgghh! That must have been some fall. Yikes!
BTW - is that your daughter behind you in your avi picture?
You guys have got to check this out. It's 360 degree video on YouTube. I don't know if it works in other browsers but, run fine in Chrome. There is a little Left/Right/Up/Down arrow thingy in the top left corner. Click on the arrows to change the direction you're looking at. Really cool. This one is the Swiss F5 Demo Team but search around, there are quite a few more.
Wonder where everyone is tonight. I'm enjoying a quiet night watch the boobis tubis and am heading up to the sack pretty soon. Been a great weekend. I finished several of the things I started when we first started rehabbing the house. Finally got the trim done for the floors. All the 1/4" round down and it's looking good. Pic soon.the other one was the pool. Cleaned, vacuumed and swam in. What more can I say. See you in the AM. 
Yes, that is Syndee. She has been my saving grace since I lost Nancy.
I have purposely avoided looking around Fastech, afraid I will find too many "must haves".

With FT I have to order, then cancel to change the address to here. Well, last order I cancelled, changed the address and... nothing. So requested a refund... nothing. Been a month.
I had something similar to garyoa1 problem. FT said they would only credit me on next order. Did not happen the next order. This came about after a couple of weeks of emails (restating the problem and justifying over and over) etc... and no credit that was ever confirmed/clearly indicated although they finally realized I was in the right.
Only a few bucks, but its the principle.
Word to the wise, if you can afford to gamble and place an order and maybe get or not get what you want, go for it. Just keep the order dollar amount down so it does not hurt financially or vape wise. It can be a hit or miss type of FT acquisition. I have received a few items that actually were delivered as expected from FT. You might want to remember that FT may have a language problem when it comes to refunding/crediting ANY mistakes.
MikeE3 --Best of luck. It looks like you have thought over the consequences.
garyoa1 -- More best of luck, you will really need it.
oh dang hun, that aint good even if you had been sitting a long time, especially as much as you walk.
dadgummit, never dreamed you'd have this much trouble with something so simple. shoulda left well enough alone I reckin.
Glad to know what it is and that it's nothing worse than that. Will be glad when he's all fixed up and good to go. Prayers for all y'all
Good to see ya post! Now.......where's Semi been? Did he say he wuz goin somewherz, I can't remember
with the stuff wrong in your back, walkin to the bathroom can feel like you're over doin it! So sorry to hear about all the pain you're in, I can relate.
That was really kewl, and so was the one that David posted!!
Mike, sorry you couldn't get it to work, and good luck with the FT order!
Ok, talked to Dancin at 5 am, and then again just a few minutes ago. Her surgery is scheduled for 7:30 in the morning. She's gonna have her daughter call me after the surgery. She's feeling much better about it than she was. She's being well cared for, so that has eased some anxiety. She's had a few days to wrap her head around it. She did find out that it would be open heart where they crack her sternum, so a much longer recovery time. Of course she's worried about them having just moved into the more expensive apt and her being off work for probably at least two months, but I told her not to worry about that. Hopefully she can at least get some temporary unemployment and other stuff to help. her bed is real low to the floor so her son is getting that fixed up for her and getting some other aids for the shower, potty etc so that will be a huge help. None of her grandkids are itty bitty so they should be able to help her some as well. Told her once she's home to have a pouch for her cell phone to wear around her neck or have in pocket or something, she's not to be anywhere without that phone just in case.
She did watch some movies of folks that have the same procedure, and it helped a lot them telling her what to expect. Her imagination was likely worse than reality. She really appreciates everyone's prayers and concern, it means so much to her.

Regarding FT...
I've ordered from them maybe 4 - 5 times over the last couple years, and have not had any problems. One does need to be very careful reading descriptions - some things are "authentic" and some are not. The shipping seems to be quicker and more consistent than it was. Haven't had to deal with their customer service.

Tell her there's lots more on the way!
