Good evening. I didn't get everything done that I wanted to, so I will probably have to make this run again next week. I'm exhausted (it was a 575-mile round trip!). I called home an hour out, and Lisa had a light dinner ready for me. Have I mentioned that I love this woman lately? We will go... Sign in to see full entry.

I have to make an unexpected (but very important) trip down to Avon Park/Sebring early tomorrow morning, which means I will be gone early and getting back late. This will be a ~ nine-hour round trip, not counting the time I need to accomplish a few things. If all goes as planned, I'll explain it to... Sign in to see full entry.
The story for today, and I suspect the next few days, is rain, rain, and more rain. The Weather Channel says we might have a tornado or two, just to mix things up. The instability of the air around us due to the storm about to hit Louisiana is profound, so they don't know what to tell us. In the... Sign in to see full entry.

Twenty-three years ago today, one of the greatest tragedies in American history shook the nation. Terrorists hijacked and then flew two planes into the Twin Towers while a third was purposely nose-dived into a field in Pennsylvania. I watched in stunned silence as the second plane ended its flight... Sign in to see full entry.

What Happened Yesterday??
Good morning. Yesterday was a busy day. I had an appointment with one doctor, who sent me for lab work and to another doctor. We drove to that office, did more lab work, and talked with him. After half an hour's wait, he sent me to another office, where I got more blood drawn and saw a different... Sign in to see full entry.

Good evening. After seeing three doctors today and "donating" about a half pint of blood, they have 'ruled out' anything serious happening with me. I know we did enough tests to make sure. I have a follow-up visit on Friday. More when I know anything. Lisa says I may never know anything so that it... Sign in to see full entry.

I forgot I have an early morning doctor's appointment for a normal check up. I will post when I get home later in the mid afternoon. V Sign in to see full entry.
We are slowly waking up and getting moving. We didn't fall asleep until well after two last night, and my brain is reminding me how stupid an idea that was. We watched our favorite program, #OnPatrolLive, until midnight and then sat on the porch watching the night sky as a decent-sized storm rolled... Sign in to see full entry.

It began to rain yesterday in the early afternoon, and with minor exceptions, it continues to do so. The nice thing is that the outside temps have settled into the mid-70s, making for good working/sleeping conditions. It has 'slowed down' some, so Lisa is outside with the pups. The two big dogs went... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning. Storm clouds surround us, but it has yet to rain. The tropical storms running across Florida and up the Atlantic coast will ensure staying dry doesn't last much longer. We started a project yesterday outside that we all but finished. Lisa is getting dressed to help me finish it, but we... Sign in to see full entry.
