I wonder how long it will be before this is horribly abused? These crap weasels could simply change the book of disorders to state that anyone who believes in private ownership of firearms is mentally unstable. Don’t PCP docs have to ask if there is a firearm in the house now, as a provision of Ocare?

The Redskins are the Washington DC football team that the PC loonies are all in a tizzy about insisting the owner change the name, and before they can accomplish that coup, the media must refer to the team as the Washington team. And nevermore utter the name Redskins.

Sigh, we were really bummed about the Packers losing to the Vikings last night. So they go their separate ways next weekend for the playoffs, and the Packers go to the Washington Redskins for the game. There I said it, Redskins. The biggest hole the Packers have this season is the one left by Jordy Nelson’s knee injury in the… Read more »

Great news for Fay & Shannon.

TT and Hubby, keep us posted. I’m not clear on how leg pains are fixed with back surgery. What is the actual diagnosis? Does he have several different problems?

In the latest fiscal year, a review of city records shows Austin got a shade under $3 million for its recyclables, even as processing costs hovered around $4.8 million. The city lost $1.9 million last fiscal year and a $2.7 million in the two previous years as recyclable materials have fetched less on the open market than the cost to… Read more »

#37 – That’s both the good news and the bad news. I would not go anywhere but to Methodist Hospital in the Med Center – those doctors over there are miracle workers. And the prep time will be well worth it to have it done right the first time. I would be looking forward to it rather than dreading it.

Doc thinks Hubby needs back surgery. Now we have to go through all those hoops – and his pain won’t be gone any time soon – to qualify him for surgery.

I told him about the all cash surgery center in Oklahoma…thinking it might be an option. Lots to discuss in the coming days.

Yea for Fay and Shannon. Halfway home and a whole lot less overwhelming digs somewhere in Katy for Fay, much less hectic drive for Shannon, and Max gets the company he longs for more frequently. Hope the place allows pet visits.

prolly a bigger fan and more volume of more stinky stuff.

Reminds me of my last visit with my mother. It would be TMI to regale you with her stories, but we were both laughing our heads off at what the poor aide was faced with after Mom was given certain medication.

Seems that just a couple of weeks ago Ryan’s House of Hypocrites passed an omnibus spending bill that funded all these things for the next year. Talk about a “show” vote. A pox on all of them.

Prayers up for Mr. TT. At 3:30 I will be in the tooth cleaning chair. Sometime this afternoon, HeartCrusher and Spouse will be heading north to Urbana Ill.

All he had to do was call me on the phone and get my butt out of bed.

Would that be a butt call?

Got to hand it to Hubby – I expected him to wake me up this morning to make breakfast for him and help him get ready for the day (he’s been sleeping in his recliner, as it’s easier on him when he hurts like this, and he doesn’t want to wake me up, either). I got up a little later… Read more »

Hubby used to do plumbing for a lady who had trained cats for cat therapy. I believe her husband, who raised show dogs (boxers) also had therapy dogs. It gave her great pleasure to take her cats to hospitals and nursing homes and watch them do tricks and provide loving for the folks.
