Out of the doctor's office. It went well, lots of questions. Told him I had to see the surgeon Tuesday of next week. He said Wednesday he would pull my charts. Wife ran us by sonic, got tater tots with chili and cheese, a ultimate meat and cheese burrito and if course a Dr pepper. Now by the store to get some supply and back by the pharmacy then I'll be bored as hell back at the house. O-well at least I am home. Wound is looking pretty good but I'll be on the antibiotics for a good while, and possibly the rest of my like. Don't know if I can handle that, I need a beer and a margarita.
My spouse is on antibiotics for life, no more margaritas for her, some antibiotics are OK to drink with some not. It worked out well for us, I can no longer drink because of medications. Must feel good to be out and about to a degree.

I am one tired mo-fo. Got everything done including edging my front yard. First time of the year is murder. I have a older edger and lots of grass and turf grows out on to the sidewalk over the fall and winter. But It's done. I ain't doing nothing the rest of the day except getting loaded.

Jacuzzi is gonna feel extra good today. Probably won't be able to move afterwords. '

I do have a bit of gardening left but there is always tomorrow. Trimming mothers ..... no big deal.

Now that is some amazing and useful technology right there! It's like a smart meter for you instead of your house. Anything that keeps you from going back to hospital for monitoring...great invention!
I use my son for any new technical/computer assistance also!

Oh - it works - the green 💚 light comes on -
No offense Brother ,I have loved the Beatles, Stones,Sting and Petula Clark my whole life so Im not prejudice.
But as a electrician I must say your voltages and plug configurations leave a lot to be desired.
I was in Sydney at the Opera house talking to a electrician who work there and said the same thing.
He said only to a Shelia and said goodbye.

Behave ☝️ You're recovering FFS !😊 ☝️
Yeah - was most disappointed - and a tad more than slightly perturbed - when my wife didn't respond well - to her usual pre-pain-de-sal and butter - tap on her derriere - at breakfast this morning - when usually she gives a little squeal of joy - then taps me back too - (one of our little rituals) - and told me that the male head Philippino nurse called 'Edgar' at St Thomas's Hospital - had warned ⚠️ her not to engage me in any hanky-panky - or it could prove FATAL! - due to my recovering heart condition - so what a bummer 😕 eh? - Jeez -
<looks VERY disconcerted>

View attachment 18996105 This gadget came in the post today - from the PACEMAKER people at St Thomas's Hospital - I got the boy to set it up - some sort of relay for heart ❤️ stats on my pacemaker -

My spouses friend had to go into the clinic to have her pacemaker monitored, that's a handy rig to have at home.
my wife told me off/was mad at me for going so far - in my condition - she's just worried I fall - or don't come back the same - bless her - 😀
- I'll get the seedlings 🌱 started in this next week -

About your previous comment, isn't nice to know that someone takes the time to be sincerely concerned about your well being.:)

Seriously though, I just completed a 34 year sentence working building maintenance for the school board in Florida. I was due for 35 year to retire but I just could'nt stay that last year.
Which made the second time in my life I dropped out of School for better things!
I'm so glad I did... so glad to be away from that atmosphere!
The work was'nt bad, it was similar to what I did before...framing carpenter. Started out building portable class rooms. Then transitioned to a truck crew doing building maintenance in the schools/class rooms.
Having said that I dont place allot of confidence in the student population thats going to run things in the near furture. I watched the school system change from educating children go to indoctrinating them into all this WOKE political and gay agenda which seems like their mission.
I cant believe I'm saying this but one good thing from the faked virus is it showed parents whats been going on in schools for years now. I recommend everyone home school their kids!


Dude , good story , love it!…

and congratulations on your retirement…..i told them to take this job and shove it about 20 years ago…😂

remember this type of indoctrination?

It's just getting used to being a sorta cripple - I 'spose - when most all my life I've been as fit as the proverbial fiddle - you are right - though - and I do feel fortunate that at least some.people.care -

Well - I've always had a sorta BAWDY sense of humour - full of sexual innuendo - but not what you might call 'Crude' - particularly - some things are best left to the imagination 😉

- and ya - it's just about accepting the fact that I'm aging - and things do tend to change - rather radically in some instances - so I start grieving for things like being able to carry a fully loaded backpack and march with it for miles - or being able to sprint 🏃‍♂️ down the road - at the drop of a hat etc - 😉 -.I think that it's called 'Accepting Your Own Mortality' -

- and from here on out - its good if I can just maintain - adequate physical and mental health -
