Yeah, I despise snow almost as much as frail & fragile old people. So your safe either way.

Took care of the shoveling while you were gone. It's in a nice, neat pyle for ya. Might be a little tough to get in the door though.

A chilly hi, gang. Quite nippy down in the "sunshine?????" state. Heading into the high 30's tonight -- this is crazee. Looks most of the country is cold. Only reached 60 today. Actually had a jacket on while out in it. This is nuts.

Helped with staging for the pageant at church all morning until the hungers got me. Came home for food and warmth - - brrrr. Grabbing some ph00 to complete the job of warming up.

OK, off to catch up on ''stuff''.

Don't you get bored of the same ol' boring weather all the time? At least where it's cold we can look forward to when it starts warming up in the spring. Then in the summer it gets HOT. Fall brings crisp cool weather and winter is frigid and snowy. Where you're at, it's just the same ol' story all the time.

I have a theory about the south.

If it doesn't bite you, it stings you.
If it doesn't sting you, it burns you.
if it doesn't burn you, it pokes you.
If it doesn't poke you, it tries to eat you.
If it doesn't try to eat you, it makes you itch.

Bob's just down there becaus he likes all the attention...

Yup. It has an electric motor in a cooler that pumps the water through a cuff. A really good thermostat keeps the temperature perfect.
No yelling. I still have to use crutches to walk but now I can at least stand without them.

Its when you need to use the facilities in a hurry is when you realize how much crutches can actually get in the way of the mission.

Evenin' all from 30,000'!

Just about 20 mins out of Seattle on my way home. Finished everything that I could while I was in Houston. What's left can be done via phone and mail I guess. Not much in reality.

I still have another 4-5 hours of flying but I'll be home tonight. just in time to put up some Christmas lights at -10*.....

I’ve been playing with this Polar Care 500 unit they sent home with me after my LEGG surgery. Its pretty neat but I don’t think it will chill beer any faster than putting it in ice water. I’m supposed to be able to put weight on my LEGG in the morning. If you hear a loud yell at around 0900, its me.

Hello, Scotty
Yeah, just keep your mouth shut. I'll forget about being angry a lot faster than she will... Is that the thing that circulates ice water through a tube? I wanted one of them when I had my surgery, I would have laid in a tub of ice if I could have stood it. I feel that way about my elbow now...

Yeah! And than when I sit down or am standing it doesnt seem to matter where I lean the crutches, they are going to fall away from me wacking something or just making a loud noise when they hit the floor. I must drop them about five times a day.

Yup. It really makes a difference. Suprised they didnt loan you one. It gets the cold right where you need it without messing with packs and stuff--its great!



Working on pulled pork right now. Its been cooking since yesterday and smells really good even though I didnt smoke it. Gonna eat good tonight!
