Better to bake than fry as I understand it. It's summertime. We're all gonna bake for the next couple of months.

I'm on so many meds right now I think I need to get one of those pill organizer thingies. Going to town to pick up a few items. When I get home I plan on doing something. We'll see what has the highest priority. Look for shade or go hide in the A/C when possible gurus. The pinched nerve in my back has shifted more to the hip. I guess that could be a good thing. We shall see. Pain is still there but not as bad as it was.

...got the front porch steps done and they look ok....they have Doc's approval that is all that matters. The place is looking very nice right now with the recent rains...the lawn is like green velvet.... the daylilies are all out as are other flowers... June is the best month here as it gets hot and dry for the rest of the summer....

got a new grill.... a Monument.... it's blue.... I know doesn't sound that good but it is kinda cool.... the burner controls all lite up blue.... I'm a sucker for LED stuff...

all the kids are coming for the 4th so it will be lively times around here.... eat beef Guru's

Does it have bluetooth to tell you when to clean it?

no... that's Doc's job....

Hey guys, been AWOL this week. Can't really say why, as I don't really know.

Started doing a few little projects in the shop. I had a request for a veteran flag case, by a lady friend here in town. No real hurry as her husband passed almost two years ago, but I figure this is a small enough project I wouldn't overdo any of my restrictions. I'm freaking going crazy sitting around doing next to nothing. Hopefully that will change next week at my six week recheck. And while I' at it I built another one for my nephew as he acquired his maternal grandfathers flag. Again he requested it and he has had the flag stored away for more than two years. Biggest issue with that one is he lives in Washington DC and getting it to him has always been the issue, but Rosies' brother is going to be seeing him this summer and will make sure he gets it. And... I prefer to build two at a time, because when I buy the glass for them I have to buy a square piece and cut it diagonally to create the triangular piece needed, creating two identical pieces...... savvy? Anyway, today I delivered the one locally, I made the wife cry. when she tried to pay me, I told her "This is my way to give back to those who served." She tried to make a case, but I wouldn't have it..."Absolutely, NO." We will drop the other one off on our way to KC on Monday.

Then went out to advise a handy gal in her quest to "urbanize" an old grain bin she moved into her yard to create an outdoor kitchen/BBQ/social area. The same gal whom I helped with the old piano-> Wine bar. She's always got unusual projects going.

My back is doing great, the feelings in my lower legs and feet, I can't say are back, but weekly they feel 'different'. I assume this is normal as the spinal cord "decompresses" and the nerves begin to reconnect. I'll report back after my appointment Tuesday.
