I am back-tired. Got my Covid booster. Got Stella who pooped everywhere on the way home; cleaned it up; and she pooped again. The breeder lied-she said she would throw up in the car 🤦🏻‍♀️😳😂, and have a vet appointment in couple hours
Yay...welcome home!
I was getting ready to send out a search party.

I must have missed a conversation about a road trip.....🚗

ETA; Cute dog!

While in my backyard watering, I noticed a tree down.
We had some really fierce winds the other night, and apparently it pulled this tree right out of the ground.

These trees are over 50 yrs old and I probably haven't taken the best care of them, but I never thought it'd drop like that.
Although, last year I lost my full grown magnolia the same way. Oh well, nothing lasts forever.
 
Sorry this is a bit off topic but I am still thinking about my daughter continuously. So, thanks for everyone’s concern about my daughter, she is not doing well and “revealed” the rest of the information about her condition; and reason for her issues. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Before the issues with her pancreas and gall bladder, she was jumping through the hoops to get a gastric bypass. This included several medical tests, seeing a weight loss doctor, losing 40 pounds in a limited amount of time, providing 7 YEARS of photos proving she had been overweight for that length of time, seeing a psychiatrist, and undergoing a mental health written exam.

She did all this because her back is so “bad”, weight loss was supposed to help, and because she now has a 3 year old to raise. Before she could get the surgery, she had her life threatening emergency medical issue with her pancreas which, with all that testing, didn’t show up before it “crashed”.

Even though after the weight loss surgery her back issues became severe, the doctor encouraged the surgery, the insurance company approved it, and she had the surgery. 😳😢. She has been unable to eat more than 500 calories a day and blood tests show she lacks protein. She has become dehydrated as she is unable to drink more than 20 ounces a day.

Due to her severe back deterioration she is, unable to walk most of the time; and in severe pain all of the time. She refuses back surgery.

I am extremely worried about her. 😭

So very very sorry to read about your daughter Aneeda. Sending you loving thoughts and prayers.🙏
 
Returning home early from vacation, my wife fell and broke both wrists, one not too bad, one not so good.

Went to Preservation Hall last night, no pictures allowed during performance.

I'm glad you enjoyed New Orleans, Rob, but am so sorry about your wife's broken wrists. Are they both mangled to the point of needing casts? If so, you'll be her right (and left) hand man.

p.s. Did you catch those fish?

One does, one doesn't. Fortunately her left is the bad one and she is right handed. But kind of no handed at the moment. The right is splinted, but she has some motion in her right hand, not much in the left. No compound fractures or anything serious, just a few weeks of being a bit handicapped. And in some pain... Given time it should all heal.

I'm happy to hear that. You seem like a good man. I'm sure you'll help her out with whatever she needs. :love:

When it rains , it pours.......so sorry for the severity of your daughters health.....surely hope things get turned around for the better soon.
 
Was going to go out and take some Autumn photos today..it's sunny enough, and probably the best day before the big winds come and blow a lot of leaves off the trees.. .. but in truth i've had quite a tiring week, and I really don't have the energy to go out..🥱. plus I've got a sore left arm. Initially I thought it was tennis elbow but it's not responding to traditional treatment, so I'll give it another days rest after a lot of driving yesterday
 
It's been raining since wednesday.
So
Catching up on extra cleaning that gets neglected during spring and summer.
Downstairs, almost done, reorganizing while i'm down there.
Fridge all spic and span......amazing.....no forgotten science experiments...lol.
All pet beds, taken apart washed and put back together........there are many.
Another wave of sorting, give away, and stuff that just needs to be garbaged.
Working on giving the legs on my table and chairs a good going over......they are black matt finish.....so can't use any type of cleaning solution, because it leaves a white film......just good hot, hot water, and elbow grease.
Need to get a fill on meds today.

Better quit talking about what i'm doing and go do it......Later.
 
I'm getting my ARK ready. This week I've had over 6" of rain and since midnight last night another 2.13 in my digital rain gauge that resets at midnight.

A local meteorologist at the airport says another 2" from 10 pm tonight till 8 am Sat.
