Good Morning CGs!

Hope everyone had a good holiday. Hot here this week, another day in the 90s today.

RR#1 got a small part in the school musical. So that means play practice, band practice, and tap dancing. We also have to schedule some more driving lessons. Something to do every night and weekend. Wife is already running around frantic so this just adds to it. We'll get by.

Hope everyone has a great day!

I may have messed up by not taking a pro active approach to get my skin checked for skin cancer. I have had issues with it in the past, primarily basal cell carcinoma, I let lump on my hand go too long without having it checked out. Now I'm concerned. I tried to research it previously but had no luck coming up with a matching description. That is till Jimmy Buffet died. Then I came accross images of Merkal Cell carcinoma. The lump on my hand fits the image. I'll be on the phone getting an appointment for both me and Sue since we have both had skin issues that need attention. Well .... Worry is of little use. Time to get back with the professionals. Getting my tooth implant installed tomorrow. General practicioner appointment later this month. Hernia surgery at the end of the month. My medical insurance will be getting a workout.

STICKY IS BACK, 76/79% THIS MORNING, 96 THIS AFTERNOON.

DOG FED, CARS SWITCHED A DAY LATE, TOMATO UP. AND OF COURSE THERE ARE RAIN CHANCES ALL WEEK, NEVER FAILS.

IT'S AMAZING HOW MANY THINGS FOR KIDS TO DO THESE DAYS. (WHEN I WAS A KID WE HAD TO ENTERTAIN OURSELVES, THIS WAS ENHANCED BY NO RULES OR ADULT SUPERVISION :-) #3 GRANDDAUGHTER IS LEARNING MEAT JUDGING, SHE LOVES IT!

TOMMY, YOU SOUND LIKE A BONANZA FOR THE MEDICAL ESTABLISHMENT; NO TELLING HOW MANY VACATIONS YOU'LL PAY FOR.

BREAKFAST CALLS, AND I MUST GO---

..being a fair skinned with English and Irish background I have also had numerous basil cell skin problems...I go in every 6 months to get checked and they freeze or cut stuff out every time. If my dermatologist is driving a brand new C8 it is because I bought it for him.... I also know that anytime I looked up something on the internet on what ails me.... I pretty much consider myself dead and gone....

get it checked and get it gone.... then stay ever vigilant... I am thinking there are a lot of folks headed to the dermatologist in the next few weeks after Jimmy passed.

Waiting until the end of the day to call it, but we think our old Yorkie has gone on to something better... 16 years old and he was here at lunch on Friday and when we noticed he was gone around supper time, he never has been found. He had a great life with 4 acres and more to roam on and dig and bark and run. Also a family that loved him....

As Will Rogers said, If there are no dogs in heaven, then when I die I want to go where they went..... Goodbye Ham..

Good morning, cooler here, rained 3 times yesterday, and the last one was a doozie. We needed it badly, more predicted today too. Had a busy weekend with work in the yard Sat and Sun, and yesterday I was wore out and hardly moved, except to make chicken and dumplings for supper. Tommy keep up on the doc appointments, and get stuff checked out. Seems like I'm at one doc or another every time I turn around lately. Getting old sucks. Marcus I'm sorry about the dog, I do hope he comes back. Did you perhaps try putting out one of y'all's dirty shirts? Their sense of smell is insane and maybe he'd smell it and go there? Saw that somewhere that someone else tried it with success. Being 16 though, that was a great life of being loved. I do hope you find him.

Hope the skin issue is minor, Tommy. At least you might be able to find out what it is.

Marcus, sorry to hear that but sounds like you he did what old dogs do...

Hope you find the old dog ......

Finished up the A/C install this morning in the back office shed / cabin. I wanted the caulking to set before I put up the trim. Then I screwed and caulked the trim. Put it on high cool and I'll go check it in a few hours. Put in a 5100 BTU to cool about 250 sq ft. Should work just fine.


Whichever one goes first is gonna leave the other with a hell of a lot of stuff to get rid of. LOL. That's why I think men are the ones that die first. Because they want to.

Hey guys, started out cool, but warming up. Not as warm as it has been but warm, looking for a high of 90 today.

Hope you find him Marc. Hoping for a good report on the skin conditions Tommy. Letty, when you work outside it seems to wear me out more/faster. Matt, you sound like my kids, chasing around. but my oldest has 6....well two are away at college now, but still chases 4 around.

Working outside always wears me out but since surgery seems it's worse. Arron said when he got his kidney out Army wouldn't take him back. Said he'd get dehydrated and overheated faster than folks with both. Makes sense I reckon.

...this goes with today's theme....
