Whatchy'all got in mind?

 

[gumpy]

My whirlwind trip to the big smoke went really well all things considering.

My senior knee surgeon retired so I have another taking over my knee management. I have yet to meet him but I'm informed he's exceptional.

My senior shoulder surgeon has called in a second surgeon and I met him for the first time today.
He has a nice manner and actually listens which is awesome.
He's never dealt with an EDS sufferer before so it's a good opportunity to educate another "expert".
The senior surgeon is a bit alarmed that he'll be seeing me again after he fuses both shoulders to deal with both hips..hahahah the fun just never stops.
The trip went without a hitch and I had the audio bible playing as I drove.

The GP is sending a referal to my cardiologist to get me fitted with a Holter monitor.
*sigh*
I have.....issues.

What's eds?

Wow. That’s a lot to handle! I don’t know what EDS is but it doesn’t sound like fun at all!
Glad your home safe!

@Fort’s trying to figure out why the puzzle piece doesn’t fit

They are coming together like they are supposed to.

Just did a quick study on it. Wow girl. That's not good! I'll definitely put you on my prayer list. You can literally fall apart with this.

 

[gumpy]

[gumpy]

Maybe about a third done. It is 2000 pieces.

 

[gumpy]

Keep plugging along. Puzzles are like life. Until the last piece is layed, it's not over!

This is EDS.
Ehlers Danlos syndrome.
https://www.ehlers-danlos.com/eds-types/#Hypermobile-EDS

I have Hypermobile Ehlers Danlos Syndrome.
It makes me pretty fragile and I dislocate my shoulders rolling over in bed and my knee caps to dislocate if I don't wear braces.
I got a herniated disk in my neck from vomiting.
All the collagen in my body is defective.
It's a genetic disorder.
It's degenerative.
There is no cure.
They can only make me comfortable.

 

[gumpy]

That's what I read. It's shocking what happens! I'm so sorry for you, and I promise to keep you in my prayers.

I am going to get to sleep as tomorrow is another day I am enjoying this puzzle but I didn't realize how much I had left to do until you asked. It is taking up too much of my kitchen island for me to keep it there much longer.

Get yourself a cheap card table. When the puzzle is complete you can use it to pile stuff on! Lol

Hahaha @buildit is not going to be happy with you

The piles are going away. Seriously. I even know where my envelopes are now

I am getting things clean and organized and not going back in the other direction.

That being said, a card table may help

 

[gumpy]

Get a good night's sleep for tomorrow is another day!

G'Night!

 

[Fort]

Goodnight everyone It was good to catch up with you all

That is so sweet.
Thank you.

Hi guys!

 

[robin416]

Morning, Chris. I think they all might be frozen in place. Heck, we have snow in SE AL and it's just going to get colder. Then rocket back up to 70 degrees.

 

[buildit]

Okay, bills are payed and checks are written. I may have just enough left this month for one more thing....

Remington 783 .308 Win. Bolt-Action Rifle

☆☆☆☆☆ ☆☆☆☆☆ 4.8 out of 5 stars. Read reviews.

(26)

Off to go work out and then I'll see if my mind is still set on it or if I wanna look around more.

 

[Chris]

Have you looked at Sako at all?

Edit, whole different ball game on cost.


I had a 308 once but traded it for an sks. I need a new one.
