Morning boys,
Blake, 7/14's that one heck of a week. No doubt your missing the family.
I love the Smokies, we used to live in Knoxville when I was a kid so we went to the Great Smokey Mountain National Park all the time. Have a great trip.
Pulled my back out positioning my bike in the garage yesterday, ought to be fun today at the shop have to do a brake job and the drums are heavy.

Extremely unmotivated right about now.

You sound like my dad, I'm in college and live in an apartment so I store alot at my parents garage(36x50) every once an awhile my dad and have a heart to heart about what is stored in his garage. Currently only the 4 wheeler, my tool box(52 inch so it does not roll to my shed real well) and a few odds and ends. My dad helped me build a 10x12 shed to store my other junk(sled, welder, other shop tools)
Normally I have no issues with my kids "temporarily" storing stuff in the garage. It seems as though lately I have had to re-teach them the definition of temporary. They all got a pass when they were in school, buuut their all graduated and established so its time for my shop to be returned to me. I also like to park the truck in it during the winter months, its nice not having to clear snow and ice off of it.
Tell your Dad I know how he feels.

Morning. More fun here this weekend. Future DIL went to the ER yesterday morning. She's been dealing with seemed like a stomach bug for the last 3 days prior. Upon arrival her b/p was 260/120. She was admitted within a few hours and put in MICU. She's doing better this morning, 140/92. Cat scan yesterday, probably scope the upper GI this morning. Keep a kind thought if you would.
I am always willing to take your advice! Hey, here is a picture of the LEGG that gets to have surgery on Friday. They are supposed to remove some crunchy stuff that has built up under the cap and do something with a tendon and meniscus. Not as bad as your LEGG but something to look forward to.
Luckily I dont usually notice the things I am missing

.All the best to you on that procedure. Does your patella pop out of place? If it does, ask your doc about a lateral release. Best thing I ever did...no more pain...aching, pounding seized up pain. Maybe Bobby needs the lateral releases too...amazing the relief I got from that. I have had the patella shave and it did help but the release was the end all to the hassles I had. May not apply to your situation but it might be worth asking about.

Yikes! OL went to ER awhile back with terrible headache. Her BP was 240/118 and she was miserable. CAT was negative. Still don’t know what caused it. Hope your future DIL gets it figured out.
I do not have a screw loose but there are other DTR members who do. Currently the screws don’t bug me (been there since 1974) unless I whack my knee on something.
Unless they do more, its supposed to be day surgery. Not near as bad as Scotty's. Probably similar to yours. Be playing BB in a week.
Cheesecake seems to be disappearing pretty well anyway.
It wasn’t a transplant. They just added the chicken brain to his original so now he can play the piano.

Almost nooner all!
It's a wonderful -20*F in the last frontier today.......
'bout time we got some normal weather up here.....
My boss is still out so I'm covering. It's always funny to see the Superintendent walk by the office in the morning and do a double take when he sees me behind the desk......
You make it up here I'll set you up with some moose steaks..... I got plenty.

I am. Best of luck to her. How old is she? Might just be that change thing.

Last frontier? You're in space? I knew you just took up space in school, but I didn't realize you were still doin' that.

Afternoon to y'alls.

She's 28. I got word a little while ago her b/p is doing better and she'll be coming out of MICU as soon as they get a room ready on the floor. They did a cat scan yesterday afternoon and did determine she's passing a kidney stone. They may do a scope on her upper GI to rule out some things. More when I get it.
That came from my LEGGS

I do have to call the surgeon again and have been putting it off. I keep getting some serious jabbing pain right where the tumor was. There is a lump there about the size of a quarter...not growing as far as I can tell but look out when it acts up. Its like a nerve has gone crazy. Hey what size is a goose brain? Size of a quarter? hmmmm
Now I have the visual of the guy in CO that came up to my older Twin Top and myself with his pants down asking us if we wanna see his LEGGS.

And I order patella every time I go to the Italian restraurant - - man I love that stuff. 

Amazing how they blast those things with ultrasound to shatter them into little pieces. What next?
Just got back from the cardiologist - - he pulled me from my statin drug for a month to see if that helps the leggs - - he picked right up on it and suggested we do it - - been saying the same thing for a month with the other doctors. Wow, he is good. He saved my life 10 years ago this month. Love him to death. Sure would be nice if all that is happening is a reaction to the statins.
