It occurred to me that since I may live for up to 2 years, I will need to have this car repaired.

Funny.

Breaking News:

Splendid!

Yes we will, won't we?
I will let youngest daughter decide and put that in my will.

Congrats!

So exciting and full of hope the anticipation is of new life in the family. Congratulations, brother. We at the DF household have kept you in our prayers.

Thanks all.

They had my daughter drink 40oz of water prior to the procedure.

The baby was so active that they had her go pee to calm him down a bit.

Thats awesome!

Congrats to you and your family Tom!

It certainly is great to be here experiencing the Trump Administration.
Man but I am entertained.

I was thinking the other day about how I look at others visually and mentally.

I remember when I was 18 and left for college, and then coming home for Christmas.
It was like my parents had aged significantly in those 4 months.
I got to thinking what really had happened is that since I away from them, when I returned, I was forced to look at them anew and study them, which changed the picture in my head of them.

All my life I have had this mind's eye thing going when I am around someone daily for a long time.
I get this picture of them in my head and though I see them every day, I don't notice the changes over time because I know what they look like and do not study their faces closely.

Once I go away from someone for a while, there it is again when I return... a new updated picture of them enters my head permanently until the next time I am away and come back.

Surely most of us are built like this.
I have always found this fascinating.

Well, maybe not quite as fascinating as my new AR15 that's coming.
It's a Rock River Arms A2 lower with a CMMG 16in M4 type upper in 300Blackout.

Yep, still living and adding to my collection.

Congrats!

That boy needs a rifle!


You have a wonderful outlook and perspective on life we can all learn from. Thanks for sharing it with us.

You know, they say laughter and happiness are sometimes the best medicine!

Keep going this way, and you'll have plenty of time to see some real change.

Argh!

I had treatment last Friday and all went well until last Monday. I had been down for the count all week until last night.
I couldn't eat, couldn't keep anything down including water.

Argh again!
I lost 10lbs and weigh 155.
That is exactly what I didn't want to happen.
Unfortunately, the side effects seem to building over time, but then again, I am not sure what occurred.

Mrs. LBJ is out of town taking care of someone with serious injuries for a month or 2.
Such has made my life a bit more difficult but it cannot be helped. I am not the only one with problems. We both agreed she should go help.

The daughters have stepped up to fill in where they can, but they are bothered by all this death stuff, so while I told them I was ill and all, I low balled things somewhat.

Let's not all get into a panic about me here, I can do that on my own. Anyway, such is my lot in life and life is still very worthwhile.

Sorry about the sudden downturn.

Just try to stay as strong as possible, and keep up the fight.
