Mailed a package to my gaming bud in Qatar...he's airforce, and a long way from home for the holidays.
I packed it last night and barely slept a wink, trying not to forget to mail it today...now I am all giddy, can't wait to hear form him.
(as usual, I was not 100% serious when I shoved the cards my girl scouts made last week into the box, along with some other seasonal goodies)
:shamefullyembarrased:
 
What you going to be doing. Id like to spend some time exploring that area someday
Family for holidays. Taking the two of the three kids down. My son has to stay and work, so he'll mind the homestead.

I have three family members currently battling cancer, including my brother and dad who both live in Arizona. So, in addition, I'm going down to find out just what the hell is going on in Arizona that's causing them to get cancer.

Sorry to hear about that. I hope they have a positive outcome. enjoy your time together
 
Well, I can tell you, retina reattachment is not fun, not one little bit. Especially if you want to get it over with and get it done in the MD's office.

That doesn't sound good. Is there any chance, after treatment, that you can work with limited contact? Maybe get some really good sports goggles to protect your eyes?

It's okay. If you're going to get cancer, bladder cancer is very treatable if caught early. The treatment stinks, but the outcome is just fine.

So far, I'm good, but my doctor is convinced that three of five men in a family getting bladder cancer at roughly the same time is the result of exposure to something environmental, and he's pretty confident that I'll get it too within the next 5 years or so. I'm wondering if there wasn't something we were exposed to as a family while we lived in base housing as kids.

Yeah I know there is a big study about Base housing on Camp Lejeune because of exposure to chemicals of some kind. I'm not up on all the details I just saw an article or two in passing. That does sound like far more then a coincidence there. Def worth checking into
 
Washed the Vette yesterday while it was nice, and changed the oil in the Wrangler before our road trip next week. Noticed that the tires on the Jeep, while OK, are not great. And they're street tires (came on it when Sue bought it), which I don't care for. So we're off to get new shoes for Jeepers this afternoon. BFG Mud Terrains...
 
off to classs, class studying for finals next week. made As i bet im going to ace this final next week with either a A- or B+ but today is just study so i better go find a good parking place before they are all gone
 

Dudes...

We're going to be in Indiana next week to visit Sue's parents. Fast trip, sadly. Drive from Colorado Monday night and Tuesday, spend Tuesday and Wednesday nights and leave by lunch on Thursday to drive to Texas for my youngests college graduation on Friday.
If we had more time, I'd suggest a meet & greet. I'm pretty sure you still owe me ice cream. And probably a whack or two with a stick.

sorry that I missed this, good luck.

At this point, if I try and go for limited contact after treatment the wife will go full contact.... and I will lose in many many ways.

But there si a whole lot I can work on in Taijiquan; push hands, qinna, pressure point strikes, etc. And I think I can get away with that

Next time, then! We're in Terre Haute along I-70.
