Morning all. I see that you early morning risers have posted yet again. It looks like a scene from the birds behind the house this AM. The only conclusion i can reach is that my cell phone died and the birds are here to carry it away. I really don't want to go thru the hassle of a new phone. I've certainly enjoyed the convenience of my smartphone and posting here the past couple of years. It may be time to downgrade and save some money on data plans. Still thinking about it.

Welcome to the weekend! Hopefully not many of you are stuck going to work as I am. At least it's overtime pay. Little extra spending cash for holidays or upcoming trip!

Extra money is always nice.

Little setback as DW got rear-ended heading into work this morning. No real damage, but the rear bumper looks rough. She's going to have someone look at it tomorrow after I'm dropped off to work. Just more a pain in the you-know-what.!!

Glad to hear she is ok.

Have an enjoyable day at work Brent. I hope your dad is better today.

Here is a little something for Norm.

Another good way to start the day.
 
Good morning all. Hope you all have a good weekend. I am battling post Disney blues and my wife has it 10 times worse..... such is life I suppose.
 
Latest update on Dad is that they've decided to move him to ICU to keep a closer eye on him. They are wondering if some of the toxicity from the chemo is what's affecting him. Trying to get more info.

Thanks guys. He's stable and resting. I think there will be no more chemo for him, they think his being sick is due to the toxicity of the chemo like mentioned before. Mom is happy that he is in ICU she knows they are more likely to be on top of things. Plus one of the nurses is the wife of a firefighter and already knows him. That's a plus. Sister mentioned he seems to be looking a lot better now for what that's worth.

Good to hear he is stable, continued thoughts your way. It seems a lot of stuff is going on within members of the group. I got some bad news about a friend yesterday and could really hear something good from someone.

Anyone win the lottery?

Though he misses out on the young trainees, some of the seasoned ICU nurses will be better for him. Continued prayers for you all.
 
Well, it's like the Mid-west/Mid-South here in Canada, we finally got snow with a vengence. Waited 45 minutes for a bus in the storm, still feeling the effects. Will keep going through the night too.

That didn;t last long anyways, I prefer the ICU because of the extra machines, they always know whats going on.


I admit though, I'm feeling alot like you avatar Joe Btfsplk
 
Well, I now have a new phone. That was an unexpected $100 bill at Christmas time. I guess three years with that food was good enough. Now, the vacuum cleaner, tv, garage door opener, one vehicle transmission, and dishwasher need to be replaced. I need to cancel Disney vacations or donate plasma.

Good morning all. Hope you all have a good weekend. I am battling post Disney blues and my wife has it 10 times worse..... such is life I suppose.

The Disney blues. Been singing those myself as well, especially with cold weather and snow on the ground.

Toxicity from chemo? Continued prayers.

If I did, I wouldn't have posted that first paragraph.

Sorry you are going through it Brent. One Joe Btfsplk among the Dads is enough.

We are here for you.

Ouch. May Santa bring you some Pappy Van Winkle to ease your pain.

I sure as heck didn't win. When it rains it seems to poor. Sorry for everything happening at once.
 
Morning guys. DW and I had a rare afternoon to ourselves. Guess what we did ;). We turned on the music and.........spent three hours filling out more adoption grants :thumbsup2

We haven't gotten any so far so we will keep trying. Did everyone survive the "storm"? We got about 4" of snow, but nothing we couldn't deal with.

Yuck, that won't help with the pain. Well, enough of it may.

It does. I shouldn't complain as we are still very blessed.

No snow here. It has almost all melted from last week.

New phones are always nice. However, I could see how it would be a bit of a pain seeing all the things that need replacing.

The only way I know how to battle them right is to try to plan another visit. At the moment I’m trying to convince the wife to go for the little ones first birthday. Of course he decided that he needed to be born around spring break so financially it’s a little harder than we would like. We will have to see.
