Good morning!!!!

I'm sure there will be beer mug exercises for the shoulder, the trick will be trying to take a sip when the arm is in the up position during wrist tilt. oh, I forgot can't mix alcohol and pain pills will have to sip vicariously.

Wa'll ya can, but the alcohol will amplify the effect of the pain pills (goobers), it might even slow your heart rate down to virtually zero.

I would like a meeting. If you are traveling with a RV. You are welcome to park here.

No RV trip, we have friends in Lapeer area, work in auto industry. We might stop in to see them, not sure yet.

good morning! 73 heading to 90 cloudy skies and a measly 10% chance of rain.
up early, actually never slept, this happened on my knee operations - the night after surgery I do not sleep. the block is still working so no pain and can reserve the pain pills for when they are really needed on Labor Day (hmmm a spinal block lots of pain - it does sound like a Labor Day)
the swelling has started going all the way down to my fingers, it will peak at 72 hours. ice is on shoulder but thick the bandage does not allow a lot of cold through. this was expected as the pre-op instructions were very good.
Wife is an angel taking care of me.
PT will be here in 6 hours, might be able to get a good nap in after she leaves.
Drew we are now going to have to post a pic of us playing pickle ball, (or at least holding paddles on a court pretending to be 10 years younger).

Good morning, the low is 53 and going to a high of 77°F. Wind ESE 7 mph. Showers. Possible T-storms this aft.

Our temperatures now will be a roller coaster ride. Up & down.

Last nigh sometime after I went to sleep a helicopter flew low over the house. It woke both me and the cat up. Or was it the cat leaving my bed at a high rate of speed that woke me up? He used my ankles as a spring board, I think that is what woke me. The power company doesn't inspect lines in the middle of the night, so it must have been the air ambulance. I'll do some checking on the news outlets and see what I can scare up in the way of information, before I jump down the you tube rabbit hole.

Have a safe day all

good morning all
68 in Grayson Kentucky going up to 98
thankfully with fan and a/c last night I slept well.

this morning need to dump rv tanks, then hope to get out by 9am
headed for Walmart in Lexington to meet great niece. She is excited about the meet and I will get her to put the Kentucky sticker on my rv mapl

I found the exact same oem transfer switch, ordered it, having it sent to sisters in California so I can pick it up. At least I'll have it if this old one fails again. No issue with the mechanicals, would work fine if installed properly and safely. Am hoping while in Colorado my BIL can bring out his soldering gun and we can improve on the current wire nuts. Or maybe Kyle can fix it. Then when I get home will rip it all out and start over. 3 pairs of wires, just need to be careful to get them lined up.

I slept well last night and feel better this morning.
slow and steady and this turtle will get there.

Don, sounds like your pain honeymoon is about to end, when block wears off, hope not too bad for you. My shoulder problems hurt a lot so hoping easier on you.

70 outside right now, heading to mid 90's today.

Well that was an interesting evening last night. Two big weather lines collided over our area. Never seen so much lightening in all my days. Just WOW, The winds were pretty rough too. Changing directions almost by the gust. It was wild.

Neighbors all without power. Gave up the shelter notices if anyone needed a bed and a cool place to sleep. Lots and lots of trees down. Our road is still blocked. Neighbors are also blocked. It's chain saw city, as in calling all chain saws. Will be that way for the better part of the day I imagine.

Nothing on the agenda today. will be picking up sticks and doing some wall work in the Milk House.

Hope all have a good day and a safe holiday weekend.

Ken, did you get nasty weather at home?
my power went out and neighbor emailing me your porch light is off but the power is back on. So mini drama about that and porch light came back on an hour later. ok...

unfortunately, truly unfortunately I have a stupid house thermostat that often goes into standby after power has gone off. Not reliable to go back where it was. A to do............that's bit me now.
So my brother will go over and make sure the control is still on a/c at 78.
he's not the best at this, should prove interesting.

as long as I'm not driving I can talk him through anything on the phone, including starting my generator so I don't lose my freezers, which have a little but not a lot in them.

now if he took his 14yo grandson with him, he would only have to
listen to
I got this Grandpop

speaking of tech, reminded me to check my eufy camera.
everything looked fine and recorded my SIL picking my cherry tomatoes which I had asked her to

breakfast done, time to dump didda dump
