New Pictures








It has been a while since there have been pictures on the blog. I do not like white refrigerators and it took a couple of years to make this one presentable. Do not wear a watch in the kitchen as it will no longer work after it is magnetized!!!

Here are some pictures of my bed warmer as it is now getting into the 40's here in Big R

I had a box on the bed behind me with the bicycle stuff in it when I was treaurer. The DB has decided the bos was too tall to sleep in so she modified the box. She has done this slowly and makes a mess on the floor. This was a box filled with letter size paper at one time. She has had fun tearing up the box - does not eat but just drops on the floor or inside the box th make a nice soft "nest"

Next step is to find out how to put text next to the pictures but I'm sure y'all can figure it out

Well I see at least one is reading the blog. Nothing new here except the Neurologist found what is left of a brain and pronounced me as well as could be expected for a XX yr old. Not the oldest but the 3rd oldest. No everything is OK. These neurologist vists started about June 05 when I saw wavy lines in my eye? This looked like the heat waves off a hot highway and occurred in about 1/8 of my vision (did not tell the MD which eye(s)because I did not check.) If you divide the eyes in 1/8ths then top 1/8 was OK and the next 2/8 were wavy and the rest of the vision was OK. This was not good as I was trying to fill prescriptions at the hospital so I visited the ER and the symptoms stopped before seeing the MD. However CT, MRI etc later the neurologist had me on Plavix to prevent more. On this visit I complained (imagine that) the medication and why I was on it and he stated no news is good news and keep on taking it as long as no side effects. So I keep taking it to prevent recurrent symptoms and maybe worse. I also bought the dentist a new car as I needed a crown.

Been riding the bicycle and have not fallen off as some thought. 50-60 mi on Sat usually and 30-35 mi on Sunday and maybe if I can get off my butt some shorter rides during the week if time permits. As some know hockey season has started and this week is WE Hockey, TH theater, FR symphony and SA is theater again. Did see Doubt, A Parable at the Water Tower last TH. Brother Cassian (Chip) might relate to this as it is set in a Catholic school and all the "opinions etc" that just might go on. The Playbill states "Shanley, out playwright, has famously joked that he only wrote half a play, the second act is the conversation on the ride home." Very true!!

Still working as usual. The DB is around here somewhere asleep as usual. It is very funny as when I come home in the afternoon (as in SA or SU) she is not at the door to meet me as usual at 6pm. I have to look her up and find here still asleep somewhere in the house. Coming home early does not warrant a visit as it is not feeding time. Just like a cat

Whew a long post - Guess I'll have to post shorter stuff more often - my fingers are tired
