Good afternoon. This day got off to a running start way too early, and it is just looking to slow down. We decided to sit outside before the next thunderstorm rolls into town, and I lost track of time. I had my wife and my dogs there, sitting in a chair under the trees... what more do I need? I made...

No Rain, & Then... HANG ON! Plus a Joke
Good morning. Wouldn't you know, it had rained on and off all night, but when we first got up, everything was drying, and there wasn't a cloud in the sky... so we decided to eat outback. We just got settled in to eat... and here comes the big black clouds, pregnant with lots of rain, and it began to... Sign in to see full entry.

Whew. Despite a more than adequate amount of sleep, I'm still on the sleepy side. We had flood warnings for the night, but all we got was a steady, gentle rain. For the first time in almost two months, we were able to shut the AC off, open the bedroom window, and "Listen to the Rhythm of the Falling... Sign in to see full entry.

Short Excuser and to the Point w/ a Joke?
I had a minor outpatient surgery that I should have spent a night in the hospital. I didn't get to sleep until about 7 am, and I finally woke up around 3 pm. I think this problem is a by-product of this huge run of 98 + degree days. I think I may have been working things into fall to fall into... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning. I had to spend the night at the hospital due to a possible issue with my heart valve, which I had replaced on February 3, 2016. After they did what I can only guess will cost about $125,000+ for tests, four different specialists, and them running a small scope up through the femoral... Sign in to see full entry.

Up date on V
We went to the doctor this morning because he kept saying something was wrong. After a butt load of x rays & such they think the artificial heart valve he has in his upper aortic valve has begun to tear loose. He had me listen & If I hadn't noticed it was sounding wrong he could have died, but I... Sign in to see full entry.
I'm Off, But You Knew That & Saving Energy!
Good morning. I have an early morning (for me) doctor's appointment in Valdosta, so here I am... for a moment. It looks like another hot day is on tap, but maybe not as hot as it has been. I can handle that. When I get back, I will post a whole bunch of new rules for posting ebooks on PublishDrive.... Sign in to see full entry.

Someone Out of the Past Stopped By Yesterday. (and a Joke)
Good morning. Without making a lot of excuses, I didn't get much done yesterday. I got an email from a friend I hadn't seen in 15+ years asking if we would be home. I replied that we were almost always home. Long story short, he asked if he could drop by... and of course, we said yes. Lisa knew him... Sign in to see full entry.

Summoning Up Yesterday , Complete w/ Joke
I had lots and lots of plans for yesterday... and then the power went down. We hit 105 here... that's the actual temp, not some 'feels like' stuff. Shortly after I made my last post here, I settled down to do some serious writing and editing. For reasons I can't explain, I decided to reboot my... Sign in to see full entry.

Changes Are Coming... and of Course, a Joke
I'm running behind schedule, but that's life. It's on its way to another 100+ degree day, and I had to do some physical stuff this morning. I figured that while it may be 93 right now, it would be better to do it while it is "cooler" than it will be this afternoon. Speaking of doing things, I'm... Sign in to see full entry.
