My normal posting cycle usually takes me about ten to twelve minutes. This morning has taken me over an hour due to multiple phone calls from doctor's offices and lab results. And then there was this on FaceBook. The photo was taken in September 2015, about five months before my heart surgery in... Sign in to see full entry.

We are home. Lisa is feeling fairly well except for being a little sore where they put the calth in. I've had that same situation done about 10-12 times, and I understand that it hurts for a few days. Right now I'm fixing her some lunch. Thank you so much for your prayers and notes of encouragement.... Sign in to see full entry.

They ended up doing a heart cath on Lisa, and they found a spot near the area of the potassium and calcium channels that shouldn't have been there. After some careful maneuvering, they removed the spot and sent it out for analysis. I suspect it will take two to three days before they know what it... Sign in to see full entry.

We are at the hospital for a series of testing for the things I laid out yesterday. While I can make small posts from my cell, I can't post anything else. Be well and be safe. V Sign in to see full entry.

First things first, where it is appropriate, HAPPY MOTHERS DAY to everyone here! My wife is resting here without too much problem today. We have six or more appointments this week, but something has already begun to pop up that is indicating one thing in particular might be at fault. She is still... Sign in to see full entry.

We spent most of the day in Valdosta, and I'll split this into *good* news/*bad* news. The good news - We aren't going to Avon Park tomorrow. I may early next week, but not during the "weekend drive." The bad news. Lisa had a Holter monitor placed on her last Thursday. For those not familiar, it... Sign in to see full entry.

Getting all of this medical stuff coordinated is a pain. We are heading to Valdosta this morning, about 40 minutes (due to heavy traffic) northeast of here, and tomorrow heading four+ hours south to Sebring/Avon Park. At least we can stay overnight there before coming back the next day (Saturday).... Sign in to see full entry.

It's looking like we have to travel south to Avon Park again on Friday. I'm not thrilled with that idea, but it is a necessity. I'll know more tomorrow, but I don't think I can escape it. It hit 90 yesterday. I wasn't bothered much, but Lisa was kvetching about it all day! LOL. It was the ride in... Sign in to see full entry.

My Comedy Skit

One more thing. I was telling some people I used to do stand-up comedy, and I get looks of doubt. This is a recording of a short two-minute gig in north Tampa in 2008. BTW, this is a G-rated audio clip. You may want to turn the volume down a bit. It was loud to be heard in the setting I was in. I... Sign in to see full entry.

This week continues to be a crazy one as we have to be back in Valdosta at 1:15 this afternoon for the wife to have an ultrasound of her thyroid, and then she has an ultrasound of her carotid arteries, those two big vessels in the neck. As more symptoms present themselves, I'm beginning to believe... Sign in to see full entry.
