My back has been my central focus of late. I plan on working in the yard today. Hope I can work through it. My answer in the past has always been to push through it even if I find it to be a major distraction. Going to the back doc next week and we'll see what happens. Let's just say I'm less than optimistic.

After reading that now I'm tired. Going to see a spinal specialist next week to see if he has any suggestions other than PT. PT is not part of my normal routine. But I would accept theraputic massages though. Looking more for analysis of the problem and a helpful medication. My previous hernia site is not very happy about the thought of exercise. I do plenty of moving around and could do more if I felt less pain. I know, I know. Medication just masks the pain. All I can say to that is Happy Halloween. ![]()

Have to keep the hours up so we can keep the budget for the next fiscal year. LOL. The reward for saving the government money is a reduction in the next budget.
B-day today. Brad, tee and myself were all born the same year. Thinking of you Bradley. Went to do blood work this morning and the computers were down. We all know how the world comes to halt now when computers go down. No access to the doctor's orders. Rescheduled for the next available early morning apointnment 10 days from now. ![]()

Challenged my spine with a few of hours of weed wacking yesterday. Today will be easier. Filling up the gas containers then cutting the grass at home and the nursery. This time of year it's a once a week task due to the tropical rains. Just want to say I am truly grateful for my yard and my home off the beaten path. They may be building all around us but Sue and I have built a beautiful retreat. I often go outside and say to myself I love our home. We are so fortunate to have all the good things in life. All it took to get here was decades of hard work, good timing, finances and the help of friends and family. And of course ..... the grace of God.

I'm pretty much done with politics for now. The voters can do whatever the f@(% they want. People today pretty much do that anyway. The elected officials have to jump onboard and put on the brakes on the runaway train. If not there will be hell to pay in the end. The end of the line ......

Gris, if you remember penny postcards you remember penny candy and .05 candybars. I also remember getting an order at McDonalds of a hamburger, small fries and a small fountain drink for .25. Gasoline at .35 a gallon. That's one of the great things about getting older is the "I remember whens".

Hello. My name is Tom and I'm a white guy. Being white today is kind of like being a drunk. Being white seems to take a toll on society. As a majority, Whitey be puttin everybody down. That's the message I see routinely. Funny, I don't feel guilty. I have no obligation to make anybody whole for anything. The message from the barrios and hoods blames everybody but the residents of those locales. Like crime is the police forces fault. The shootings are society's fault. Positve intervention has had little impact. Residents drive out business with shoplifting and crime. Then complain about lack of services. That's why what happens in the hood stays in the hood. Those places never change. Change must come from within. So, pick yourself up, dust yourself off and start all over again.

I try not to think about how hot it is outside but once the sweat is pouring it seems more tolerable. I HATE Florida summers ....... in case you didn't know already. Got a lot done yesterday. Sue asked me if I was ready to quit and i told her "No, I'm on a roll. " When I get the steam up I like to keep rolling on.

Mornin. Nothing quite like a flat tire on Sue's Silverado as a way to start your day. Dropped off the S-10 with a cluthch issue. One of the great things I learned in A.A. is you can restart your day at anytime.

Did a few hours of weeding then put a dent in my favaorite recliner while taking a nice sfternoon nap. It's hot as hell and I took a few cooldown breaks and stayed hydrated. The one thing that saves my limited sanity is I know late November is on the horizon. Told Sue don't be surprised if she finds me prone outside in the yard. It's Vulcan hot!

Went to the casino for a few hours yesterday afternoon /evening. It's 60 miles away. We were treated to 60 miles of fireworks on the way home driving the Florida turnpike. Literally saw hundreds of colorful displays. Heading to town for a few chores then hope to fire up the lawnmower weather permitting.

Sun is shining for now. It IS rainy season for us in the tropics. Cat 5 hurricane in the Carribean. Having gone through one I wish that on no man (or woman). Fed the nursery critters. Now I'll feed the Koi then install a couple of minor parts on the 91. Then jump over to some weeding and tree trimming. Now ..... GET OFF MY GRASS!

Good morning. Wet and wild out there today. Just got back from the nursery after taking care of a client at 08:00. I'm not really a morning person. More of a late morning person. I like easing into the day but that isn't always possible. As age has taken it's toll I find ...... I don't want to work. Hell, I don't even want to bang on the drum all day.

The Earth has been going through changes for billions of years. Multiple extinction events. Earth cooling, heating, flooding, droughts, fires an occasional meteor, orbital changes, pole shifts and other events beyond the scope of legislators. Too many people in the world and they worry about the rebound of buffalo herds. I'm sure there will be a correction. Most of us won't be around to see it. Unless of course the U.S., Russia, China or North Korea introduce the Big Bang theory. Even then some species will survive.

Dental visit yesterday was memorable. A bridge removed, an extraction, three teeth cleaned up for a new bridge and a temporary bridge installed. Last night it was definitely painful. Feels better today and I'm pretty sure the pain will recede some more by tomorrow. I ordered a couple of parts for the 91 Corvette through ebay. Who delivered it? Amazon. Both parts were available on Amazon for cheaper than what I paid resellers on ebay. Just a note to suggest you check Amazon too when searching for something. I wanted OEM replacement parts and in the end that's just what I got. Cost me $9 more though through ebay. Have A marvelous day gurus.

Dealing with issues that other people created. The accontant made a blunder blaming sofware issues. Going after the construction company for their p/u truck that f'd up the nursery gate costing $1600 to repair. Of course this is business related stuff and I'm in the hotseat to get er done. Business overflow honey-do's if you will.

As usual I am not a fan of a Florida summer. Hot and humid. Guaranteed sweat fest outside. Once you get used to dripping sweat you're good to go. Good last two nights at the casino. $375 take home Wednesday. $500 take home last night. Win some days and lose some days. The gambling wallet has a comfortable edge right now.
