Good morning!!!!

[Bird]

Dr. appointment yesterday did not go good. Betty has decided that Hospice is the best path for her care. Family is getting together to help with her decision and care.

Ron, I'm sure sorry to hear that. I guess I hadn't really realized how bad Betty's problem is. I don't know how much you and Betty know about Hospice, but I'm guessing you both know quite a bit. My Dad was in Hospice care the last few months, and after that experience, my Mother KNEW that she wanted to have Hospice and did when her health reached that point.

Ron, sorry to read about Betty. Is she considering at home hospice? My MIL did that as she was a bit too much for my SIL and it was great for both. More prayers for you both.

I was privileged to work with Hospice on both a personal and professional basis. I could not have wished for any better service. They are heroes in my book; as are their recipients.

Life and aging is never easy.

Ron & Betty, my + thoughts, wishes, and prayers.

Jay

Ron, I'm sorry to hear about Betty. Prayers sent for both of you. Take care, savor the time together.

Randy, glad to hear that you are feeling better!

Paul, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Jay, $400....ouch! They must charge an astronomical amount to insurance.... Something has to give....

It got real cloudy, couple of rumbles of thunder, no rain.... It all blew away to Texas.....

Everyone have a great evening!

Ron, you and Betty (and your family) are in our prayers. I have had the pleasure of meeting Betty many times. I can tell all of you, she is a kind, beautiful woman.

My aunt had home hospice.

Thank you all for the condolences for my aunt.

Randy, good to hear progress. Hope your procedure wasn't too painful and went well.

BEF, I can tell in your writings that you are making progress in more way than one.

LS, hope the knee can get better.

Prayers for all.

65°F and clear skies this morning, going up to 84° today.

A beautiful day for mid-August in the Midwest, which also marks the completion of my 53rd trip around the sun today. Taking a vacation / personal day tomorrow to have a three-day weekend.

Feeling much better today. Started feeling ill just before going to bed Tuesday night, then laid there shivering with a fever all night with no sleep. Went to work yesterday morning, but after several dizzy and nausea episodes, decided to go back home at 09:00. Spent the rest of the day in bed. Last temp check yesterday evening was 102.3°F. I guess I sweated it out last night, because I feel much better today, and temp this morning was 99.3°.

We get our electricity from a local rural co-op as well. I have no idea what our average rate is (not at home to look), but I know they run a surplus as we always get a small refund check every year.

Glad you're feeling better.

Happy Birthday Paul!

Ron, Karen and I are so sorry for what you and Betty are going through. We hope you both find joy in having your family nearby for their help and support. Prayers for you and your family.

Good evening all. 74F this morning, mostly clear sky, calm wind. Another light wind day, sky would cloud up some, then clear off some, and high temp was 96 HI104. It got warmer faster than I had hoped. Started the day by screwing down the protective mat on the tail gate on the truck, putting down 6 more bags of sand to level back yard, then picked up some branches that a friend saved for me when he had some tree work done. That finished me for the day.
Kyle sorry about your aunt. prayers for the family.
David, awesome pics!!
Drew good to hear Randy is doing better.
RNG go for the plane ride, B-25 would be my choice.
Ron very sorry to hear about Betty, prayers for you both.
Jay, 400 for copay? :shocked:
PJ happy birthday, hope you have a wonderful weekend.
prayers for all.
