Well today….What did YOU do?

What kind of results did you get with as wet as it is here?

I tripped on a ladder someone left on the floor of a house we are doing. Went down hard on the cement floor. I must have put my hands out to break my fall, (useless gesture). I thought I had separated my shoulder, have done it to that arm twice already. My son (works for me) took me to Panama City to the ER. They x rayed it, and told me that it wasn't separated or broken, but the inside of the joint "looked like a grenade went off".  The Doc asked me if I was right handed and when I said yes, he told me it was a good thing because I was probably not gonna get back most of the strength and mobility in the left arm. I'm gonna see my Ortho Monday am, and hope he's got better news. I'm too old to try and find a new occupation. And, in a dumb ass move by me, I chose to exempt myself from Workers Comp. My insurance should handle most bills, but no loss work pay. The dang thing freaking hurts pretty good. ER Doc told me to take Tylenol or Ibroprofen neither of which works worth crap for me.  

My German Shepard loves chasing squirrels and never catches them. She had one toying with her one day. Dog would be on one side of the tree, squirrel would run down the other side and look at Gypsy and run back up just to see the dog run. She has caught a possum or two, but that has been it. 

From what we have been told, it's worse than it ever was. I don't know how they stay open, there's never more than 10-12 cars in the parking lot. The waiting room is empty most of the time. I went to the HCA one in PC. We were coming from Clarksville, so it was a lot closer anyway. My appointment is in the morning, hoping for some good news.

edit to add: Thanks for the Celebrex recommendation. It's a lot better than Tylenol.

Good news at the Doc office. There's nothing new screwed up with my shoulder. The (Hot) PA said that the fall just irritated it, and gave me some exercises to do at home. She did tell me that if I didn't do them regularly, my shoulder wouldn't get much better. Besides the fact that if I don't recover strength and mobility I won't be bringing in much of a paycheck, I tried holding  one on my rifles to my shoulder, and decided quickly to refrain from doing that for a while. Pretty sure trying to keep a gag out of the rocks without serious shoulder improvement won't be easy, either.   So I have plenty to keep me motivated.

I was on Celebrex for a while after an auto accident.  Far as I know it worked.

Cast and blast. Shot a handful of ducks and then went and caught a few trout and redfish. Super low tide made it a little difficult but a great morning. Was cleaned up, had lunch and in the office at 1:00.

As I mentioned on another thread, the pressure vents for the cabin were leaking on my Dodge Ram. I ordered replacements and installed them the other day. You have to pull the rear seat to do this and since my dog is the only one who travels in the back seat area, I decided not to put them back. But I needed a floor and wanted a rear wall due to the bolts and such. Plywood was $30 a sheet for 1/4 thick and I would need to cut it to size and paint it. But I found some cheap 30" x 60" white plastic folding tables at Walmart for $39 that was the exact size I needed. So I removed the legs, took some measurements for some mounting holes, and installed them today. Fits great and functions perfectly for my dog with a cushion put down. She even has more room without the seat in the way.

Redid my Deer fence protecting my Rose bushes out front.
I'm working with one hand . Got a 6inch slit and a hole about 1/2 deep big around as a silver dollar across my left hand.
Skin cancer removal...Sucks

Better than not having them removed........!!!

Experience here.

Remember when we were young, all those burns, the blisters and the peeling? I do. And even when it was not apparent by the blistering and peeling damage was being done out there on the boat. How many hours spent working in the sun, hauling traps or setting nets....no hat, no shirt, no sunglasses.......

Now.....Mohs is my friend......even if I still detest the smell....AND SOUND!!!...... of burning meat at they cauterize around a ear or eye. But, so long as they get all the ugly black ones ( Twice on them. ) and the not so bad basil and squamous......it's all good. Heal up in no time and Louann can rip a stich clear with the best of them so don't have to go back for that.

Oh......and what did we do today?

Checked the two burns we completed Friday and Saturday last. Checked on a culver repair. Surveyed a couple of timbre stands that  need thinning and burning. Found a bit of orange period pottery in the creek by one of the stands when we got sidetracked messing about. Changed game chips. Let the WMD know we'll be running dogs on the hogs in the morning.......and a few other small items.

Tomorrow.......got two friends with dogs coming.......at sunrise. Plenty of exercise to follow...............

Ya might want to spring for the extra money and get good hurricane/impact windows.
I know your not likely to get a hurricane up where you are.
They will pay for themselves on energy savings over the long run.
They also cut out the outside noise.
I live not far from TIA and can't hear the planes at all.
One of the best investments i ever made.
Cut my electric bill by 22%

I keep debating this. Windows would cost $4000 or more and I would save $30 a month. Take over 10 years to pay for themselves. Doubt I ever do it.

I'm not too worried about high winds up here although I believe the new windows are rated 90 mph.

They have a high insulation number as we do get cold.

I replaced them as they were the original windows from the 70s. Cloudy and really messed up the view.

We don't worry about noise up here unless it's a bear farting

So far I've raked the neighbors oak leaves off my damn lawn! Also, moved a few gallons of fuel from my generator hurricane storage cans to the wife's car. Will "exercise" the generator for a bit today and will get fresh e-free gas today or tomorrow, add Sta Bil to it, and move the fuel currently in the generator to the wife's car and then fill the generator back up to the tip top for storage. (Sorry, I know that last line rambled, but basically I'm getting rid of all the "old" fuel (3-4 months old) and get the generator filled up with fresh E-free dosed with Sta Bil. )
