What's everybody doing today?

It's 0507 so I've not done anything yet. Going to Savannah this morning. Go by Lowe's and get some stuff. Go to pharmacy and get some stuff. Go to ER and have my forearm x-rayed. My wife thinks I broke it, but I think it may be fractured or tendon pulled loose. I gotta get it checked out anyway.
Whatever y'all do, have a blessed day!

praying that’s it isn’t something serious. Darned tendons can be more painful and take longer to heal than a break

Hope it is not fractured and is minor if fractured at all.

Justin,
Try working in healthcare! You would be amazed at the incredibly stupid things people say or ask for in the hospital. I keep saying I'm gonna write a book about patient care and call it "An Exercise in Futility"!

Very Nice, quite an upgrade. I did try to bath my cat ONCE, I have the scars to prove it. I can't remember why I was trying to bathe the cat but I am sure there was a very good reason for wanting to commit suicide.

Reminds me of my favorite southern humorist cat story and mashed potatoes. Lewis Grizzard may he rest in peace. My friend and I use to laugh so hard reading his books we couldn't breathe.

It's snowing on and off today (they claim up to 3") so I am sure I will have to shovel and/or snow blow a few times. Although if my teenage son is around today he will be doing more of it than I will. I am going to spend some time in the man (gun) cave today installing sights and a few other upgrades, plus I need to photograph some of my newer guns and add them to the inventory. I am sure after that the lovely Mrs. Sentry18 will have a honey do list for me.

I have some stories coming from the patient's end. . Like pushing a trash can under the bed everytime they came in. Which meant a very painful retrieval . Back then all coco colas were in glass bottles. So when I threw one across the room they got the message, but mostly I liked all my nurses.. Yall have a very hard job.

I'm having a nervous breakdown thinking of him dealing with gas tank for 2nd time this past several weeks.

He said the fuel lines are right up against the gas tank and hard as heck to get loose,so back to parts store to get a tool to fit in intake,etc. and gas line that goes to intake. I worry about sparks. Or even in this cold weather static electricity.
But EVERYTIME he takes it and has somebody work on it he ends up having to fix their mistakes, plus pay them to screw it up. Last time they wrung off spark plug inside motor. He had to drill out hole and JB Weld new plug in which was never to be changed again.. Time before radiator was not put in right so he had to redo that.. This is a dealership too so not cheap. Recall on speed control, not going into that story.

Yall please pray for him.

I have tendinitis in my elbow. I would have rather broken it a couple times.

I was unaware they had tennis courts in Idaho?

Just started a batch of ham hock and bean soup.

Funny, I've never even played tennis.

Hope your arm's all right, Gumpy. That'd be a pain if it was broken.
I'm up and sipping coffee. All the family is meeting early this morning in town to surprise a cousin at work for his 50th birthday. Even his mom, who is Amish hired a van driver to pile everyone in. There's supposed to be a speech by the bank president where he works. He has no idea so this should be funny.
Then getting mom while we're in town. We have a luncheon to go to near our place so bringing mom, too.

Just finished xrays. Waiting on radiologist now. I don't think it's broken. I think it's the tendons

That's gonna suck for the next few months. Taping it right is the only thing that lets me use it still.

Surprise parties are fun. Have a good time.

Picked up a new toy today. I want two of them and this one will be the wifes/loaner. It's older being a 94 but it was owned by an older couple who barely used it and maintained the heck out of it. 1000 miles on it, fires right up and runs like a champ. It's snowing pretty good, should be able to ride it tomorrow.View attachment 1274

Since it is 85 degrees here, we went to the local Home Depot and bought some new flowers to plant in the front yard.
