Just west of FtW, the temp at my house hit 101!!!! It's never been this hot, this early!! YIKES!!! Actually, it very rarely hits 100, even in the dead of summer. I hate to be a jinx, but IIRC, the last time this happened, we were hit by 3 hurricanes in a row - and I live in the center of the state where hurricanes are not supposed to be a big deal. Double YIKES!!!
Is he going to sneeze or cry?
Here is to hoping I don't have to go without power for 29 days AGAIN! That is no DIS boards for a month. I don't know I could handle that well.
I think Rog either:
A) Is crying because he has to leave FtW tomorrow.
B) Cut a good one & even HE can't stand it.
C) Didn't buy a lotto ticket & his regular #'s were drawn!!
D) Just did a shot of rumplemintz.
I vote for "A"
Glad to hear Jim is doing good. Was getting a little worried about you all.
I had a scare of my own this morning. My aunt who is only a couple years older than me (mom's youngest sister) called me and said she was having blurry vision and felt like she was going to pass out. I went to go get to her and a few minutes later a guy called me on her Nextel and said he was where she was and he thought she was having a seizure and she was unconcious (sp?). He called 911 and I met them at the hospital. Ended up it was heat stroke. She was doing some outdoor work and didn't realize how hot it was I guess. Long story short, I got to take her home and she is resting. I know one thing it's a scary feeling with a loved one behind that door and you don't know what's happening.
Jen, you could always come over and stay in our "Guest House on Wheels"!!! We were 3 days w/o power after Jeanne, so we just went to the good ol' RV, cranked up the generator, and life was wonderful!! We ran an extension cord to the fridge in the house, so I didn't have to unload that. If we had that experience while still living in Bradenton, our HOA would have had a field day with all the fines they would have charged us for violating "the rules"!! Anyhow, youse guys are always welcomed at the Otter House in Polk City!!

Hey all,
Jim came out of surgery just fine. They couldn't do everything they wanted to though, so on Monday they are going back in to get it done a different way. It means a longer stay in the hospital but we want it done right. He went into shock yesterday though, which is a complication for him because of the quadripalegia. But the awesome nursing staff was right on top of it and all is good. He is a little uncomfortable but alive so we are happy.
