Good afternoon! Threatening to rain but not. 62˚F, 200 lightning strikes the last 3 hours 8 to 20 miles away.
My wife and neighbor friend went to look at some model homes in another neighborhood to get some decorating ideas. This is alway a bad idea. She came back disappointed because all the models were sold, every house under construction was sold and every lot was sold. With all these tech companies moving to central Texas there is a serious housing shortage. Used houses are being sold above listing price, ($10K to $70K above) Realtors will not even consider putting in an offer below asking price. My neighbors house sold in 3 days $50K above asking price. Usually there are 500 to 700 home for sale in town on March 24th there were 76.
Real estate is going crazy here, makes me wonder how long this boom will last???
High lumber prices, Covid slowdowns, etc...I guess it is hard to get new homes built right now. I might call my builder friend in Austin to see how he's doing.
Sorry guys, I’m way behind. I woke up extremely sick yesterday, Ellen drove me to the ER. Septic pneumonia again, 103+ fever most of the day, couldn’t breath, you know, all the good stuff. They put me on three antibiotics and breathing treatments. I’m on Z pack, rocephin and Vancomycin. I’m much better today, fever broke overnight and I woke to a sweat soaked bed. I don’t remember much about yesterday, maybe just as well.
OK, I’m done whining. Hope everyone had a good couple of days. Prayers for the DIL, wives and anyone else in need.
I’ll check in later or tomorrow depending on how I feel.
Bird, thank you, and everyone that wished me well. I’m improving for sure, just not sure how long they’ll keep me. This is the second time in less than two years I’ve had this. Caught this one a bit earlier than previous episode.
I found I’d had a septal myocardial infarction of indeterminate age.
How do you have a heart attack and not know it?
45 this morning going to a windy and chilly 59 today. It’s all the same in here. LOL
Our first cruise in is tomorrow, I’ll
Probably be MIA for that one, someone else will need to pull the club trailer.
I’ll start hounding the doctor to send me home, but I’ll do what he says. I’m certainly not well at this point.
I am glad to hear you're improving, but sorry you're had to get sick again. What does the infarction change? Prayers my friend.
and then took Coco to vet. She is not doing too well.
Oh my wng, I never know exactly what to say, but I know she's your best doggie friend, and you have, and will take the best care of her. It is sad that dog's don't live longer lives. I'm sorry.
reminds me of a video I saw, where a terminal female chimpanzee was laying on her death bed, curled up in a fetal position. A previous caretaker, an older gentleman stopped by to see her before she passed. She was so glad to see him, she recognized him only after he started talking to her. She raised up her head, and they rubbed each other's heads and she was smiling a mile wide.
Prayers for Mostly's wifey, I hope she's feeling better and can get medical care to help things get better. Also prayers for Drew, LS, L4N's DIL, Buppies, Alien, Ken's O2 levels, and for Check to pick the right color to keep wifey happy.
Had a pair of Koss from the '70's. I tried disassemble, and install them in a full face helmet in the 80's, but failed miserably. Also had a decent set of AKG's.
Prayers for our Country and our team.
Off today.
Daughter update...thanks for the prayers. Her boyfriend broke up with her...(her mother and I agree it will be for the better). We try to infer to her, to be herself, and don't throw her better judgement out the window, to placate a friend. This was about a week ago, and she's better now. Wifey and I are going to pick her up from school and take her to lunch.
I bought a new 12 string guitar. I can't play worth a flip, but I like to play for myself and strum some licks. But I mainly bought it for my daughter, and our church. I was hoping it might be a "pick me up" for her. It wasn't a real expensive thing, I found one on Facebook marketplace, but the guy wanted almost full retail. I bought the brand new one for only $30 more than his, plus I had to pay tax.
RNG, be careful on those hills. I think I remember a APF story about you going down a hill out of control......
Rich, that free firewood sounds like a couple of C notes worth. You lucky guy.
