The fun is overwhelming!!!

How is your day going? Started as a normal day about 4:30 when I got up and made coffee. While munching a piece of cheese I bit down on something hard. Spit it out and it was a piece off my one upper molar in the very back. Dropped the wife off for a hair shop visit and went down to Elmira for my annual ICD check. The doc says for the first time it recorded a bunch of activity throughout the year including the one time when I went Afib and it shocked me. Then he told me the rest of the story. Seems none of this happened till they dropped my one med completely because it causes a lot of bad side effects. Then for good measure he said i have 3-6 months to go till it goes dead. Now he wants me back in 3 months right after they do another bone marrow tap. I will need an operation to fit a new one by June. I still have to get some sort of stress test here in January and see the cardiologist as well. Throw in a trip down into Pa. to get that tooth yanked when it starts hurting too bad and my new year is going to be a barrel of laughs.:24::24:

Sounds like a lot to have to deal with this early in the year.

Throw in a couple more snowstorms with a little ice and it should make spring look pretty good.:tooth I am not taking the chains off the truck until I have to. Raised the plow up so the Amish kids can sled on my lane. They came up and asked after the first storm so I try to leave enough on it so they can have safe fun. When I went for mail yesterday there were 17 kids down there having a blast. I plowed a path out into my lower field so they can cut across from the schoolyard.

Damn! Took my morning meds with my first glass of iced tea. WRONG move. need to drink room temp water to swallow a fist full of pills. The tooth don't really hurt but ice cold sure gets your attention quick.

agreed..

or tie it to a door nob and SLAM!

I am glad you are better. I was worried about you for a while there.

 

[Jackass master]

Hell, I worry about me some days!:tooth Good news is the Amish guy called and will be coming to cut up my other pile of logs. Now if the wind would quit drifting the snow around I could get the snow cleaned away from it and shake the log pile with the backhoe to help clean them off. I am down to 2 full stacks in the woodshed and it goes fast heating the greenhouses when it is windy.

I got a tooth doing that too. Doesn't like the cold.

You need a couple titanium screws in the roof of your mouth. When you eat ice cream they are like electrodes to the pain center in the brain. I manage to get a good jolt from ice cream pretty regular. The 2 between my eyes can do it if it is extremely cold out. I wear a full face military cold weather mask if it gets real bad.

Are you made of metal? :eek

No! I just have a fair amount holding my face together after a motorcycle wreck back in 91. They reattached my jaw and used stainless steel wire to rebuild my eye sockets. Had my jaw wired shut for a few months. Lived on soup and instant breakfast with ice cream through a straw. Had a cast on my wrist and a knee rebuilt at the same time. It makes some great panoramic X-rays at the dentists.

Dang!!!

Medical miracles, hey?

 

[Jackass master]

Hell, that was easy compared to 2007. I spent 57 days in the hospitals,most of it in intensive care and 3 weeks on life support at Cleveland Clinic. They wanted me there longer but I agreed to come back every day for a few months. this old body is getting used up!:tooth:24:

 

[AUFred]

Sounds like that old body has been abused.
