Hooray for BB!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great to know he's still around,,huh?  AND ,,,catching some fish,,,if we can believe that.   All well and good, but, there have been a few of us that never returned,,,and it could happen you know.

Windy, kinda hot today.  When it gets this way i'm always glad for a good front to show up, like will be here Sunday nite.  We finally got down low enough for some leaves to start falling.  And it will finish them  about on Mon. nite.

We've been going out to the park, and J has discovered how enjoyable those geese are.  He has lived here all his life, and had never done that.  He had even told me that that bread wasn't good for them,,now it's,, Mom, do you have anything to feed the geese?  lololol.  It's just peaceful out there and the other birds are showing back up.  Big ducks,little ducks,,white cranes, blue cranes,,,etc.

My neighbor did move out last week.  A big truck even showed up a few days ago and loaded his storage room on and took it away.  This morning, someone was walking around taking pics and J asked them what they were doing.  It was someone from his mortgage company.  We just told them they had left about 2 weeks ago, that's all.

I got this huge flower arrangement this morning.  My birthday is tomorrow, which i keep forgetting.  Now i can remember while i'm smelling these.  Something smells good.

Hey, yall tc, and

Duh

Looked on BBs profile and there was his son's blog.  Left a comment and hopefully he will see it and let us know something.  THIS IS NOT GOOD!!  I  fussed at DD once ,,, about being missing and he understood and didn't do it any more.  Just let us know.  And BB did and for a while it has been ok, but 10 days is too long for nothing.

Js doing great!  I take him back next week on Thurs to get the staples out.  Have to go to SA to do it,,the doc just goes to F'burg every other week, and the timing was off.

The brace is rubbing on the top of the surgical opening, and was making it red, so he's not wearing it when he's in the house.  Looking lots better today.  After the back surgery in 2000, his doc told him NOT to wear one, didn't need it, he had screwed him together enough was no way it would come apart.

Well, my bro G showed up, so i'm just gonna close this now, yall tc, and

I'm Early, Just One Thing

Does any one still have BBs son on their blog list?  I don't, but maybe one of you do.  Need to know what's going on,,,really concerned now.

Need a Few Screws?

 

The top ones came out back in 2000, during another back spine surgery.  The bottom ones were taken out on this one, but twice as much put back in,,2 fusions.  I couldn’t believe the size!!  How could anyone have these in their back?  Lots do,,, tho.

Not much,,but it’s late now, and I’m really tired, so,,,GN, and

Memory Must Be Going,,,

Kinda getting concerned about BB,,,been 6 days with no communication.  In fact, thot he was gonna go to the coast.  Anybody know anything?

Just flat missed doing a blog yesterday,,,without even realizing it.  Gotta get back in the habit.

Js here with me today,,been 5 days now.  He's doing just fine, pushing it like he always does.  He won't listen to me,,,lol

 

Changed the dressing today,,,took a quick shot ,,,not bad huh?  This is the 5th day.  23 staples there, but they are small ones this time.  Normally they are 1/2" wide.

 

Went out to the park yesterday, just watching the bird life, reading, etc.  This man and his 13 year old dotter showed up, walking along the bank, casting along the way.  They went on past me a bit and i heard the girl yell,,,,and she had caught a small bass, which they threw back.  I moved to another place and in a bit the dad walked by carrying this BIG one,,, which he put in an ice chest with water.  I didn't stay much longer, but i think they had just started biting.  He said she had gotten 2 bucks Saturday, then 2 more.  (Using his tags),,,So yall,,,there are fish out there in that park!  You hearing me, BB?  Didn't think about taking a pic til later, still kicking myself.

 

Well, so late here now,,,gonna close up, yall tc, and

Raining While I'm Writing

Still seems a little strange not to be doing the countdown for Js surgery.  I talked to him about an hour ago, and they were about an hour away.  He said they took that drain out about 4 this morning, and it's a 100% better.  It was making his back hurt to lay on it, or to wear the brace.  No problem now, he said.

There was a 64 year old lady next door, had the same exact thing done.  I had talked to her husband when he was waiting on her to get back from the surgery.  Her second one.  Hope J visited with her.

I was supposed to go out to Ns house for a get-together for her birthday and her dotter's, but,,,just too darned tired.   Took the gifts to B to take with him,,hopefully he remembers,,,lolololol. 

WOW!!! It's raining....Love it.  This is ahead of a front that's gonna cool us down a little.  Gosh, i'm ready.  Slept with the ac on last nite.  When i got home Thursday, my yard had been mowed,,,couldn't figure that out.  Then this morning my mower man came by and yep, he had done it.  Still hoping it's the last one for the year....lol, but i remember mowing in Feb. and fussing about that...

Getting a good little shower.

Catching Up Today

Been trying to catch up on blogs.  Hey BB,,,, where are you????  I know, i know,,no internet there, but,,,,

Talked to J about an hour and a half ago, he still hasn't seen the doc, and was in a terrible mood wanting some pain med.  Was gonna get up and walk, so not to lay there hurting, he said.  I DON'T WANT HIM HOME LIKE THIS,,,,,  A nurse had told him they might have to keep him tonight.  I went over to his house and made his bed up, so it's ready.  It's a hospital bed his dad got him a long time ago after one of the other back surgeries.  That key he gave me came in handy,, lol.  It's to his Dad's house too. 

I just kinda piddled around on my way back yesterday.  I stopped once to fill up the car, and once for a milk shake.  Then, just 15 miles down the road i passed a good looking mexican food restaurant, turned right around and went back.  Got a plate of cheese enchiladas with the fixings, ate a little and brought the rest home.  Got it for later today.  Gonna make some oatmeal for lunch, here in a bit.

Monday nite, out at the lake area, was hearing about a man going around his house with guns in his hands, having a flash back.  His mom was on the phone with 911, trying to calm him down, but she would, then he would turn right back around uncontrollable again.  It went on for about 2 hours and i went to bed.  The DPS had shown up.  Well, they ended up shooting and killing him.  Told him to drop his weapons,,and he raised them to fire.  I just read his obit today, and the family was asking for a change on how these situations are handled here in TX.  He was a 20 year vet, and had an impressive career and life.  This is wrong!!!  I totally agree with the family.

I am so glad to be home,,,that was my last trip staying away like that.  No rest, total exhaustion.  Just can't do that now.  Got a good nite's sleep last nite, feel better, but gonna spend the next few days doing nothing.
