Grill'n time

 I have just a little more to do on and in the motor home to have it ready for the road.
That is if we ever getting through with the doctor appointment's.

                                                                

I did get time to put on the grill and also added a few onions and peppers.


Here is my little happy burger in my plate with some fried potatoes.

The meat usually taste better on a grill then fried in a skillet.

Thank you for stopping by and have a great day.

Happy Easter

 Yes, I wish all of you a Happy Easter with your Family or like Nancy and I just the two of you. 
Nancy has always prepared us a large dinner, but now with her health issues there's no reason for her to do so.
Instead, we are getting our meal from Bob Evans and having a quite dinner at home.

We have an appointment to have blood drawn on Tuesday a week before our appointment with the doctor.
  
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.

Eye Surgery

 Yesterday Nancy and I went to the Florida Eye Institute to have our eyes checked to get new glasses.

This place checks your eyes much better than the run of the mill laces that are around.
Nancy and I both have been having problems with our eyes burning and our sight has seeing things but through a blurry vision.  
Upon checking everything with our eyes the problem is we have Secondary Adema after Cataract Surgery.
So, we will have surgery May 2.  Nancy will have one and I will have both eyes with one week between surgeries.

Our summer vacation and Family reunion are on hold until everything is complete here.   We sure hope we make it for the Family reunion 

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.

Sitting around?

 Sorry folks not much happening around here, just to old people sitting around.

Well maybe not all the time as I have been going to the storage yard to work on the motor home a few hours each day.  The most important thing was getting the toilet foundation repaired with the new lumber in and the old out.

I still have the living room slide to see why it is creeping out after bringing it in.

Yes, we have some more appointment to have our eyes checked to get new prescription glasses.

Also, our regular doctor for new med prescriptions.

So maybe not that much sitting around after all.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.

Time has come

 Well with the heart cath out of the way and a visit to my Cardiologist visit , I'm happy to report that everything is ok.  He did say tha one artery had 45% blockage, but the standard procedure is they will not do anything until it gets to 75% blocked. 

I'm still watching the NCAA Tournament and there has been much exciting times with the upsets along the way.

I've been going to the storage yard where the motorhome is stored to do some needed repairs as we are going to be traveling again this summer.  As they say "all good things come to an end" this does look like the last trip in the motor home.

I have read the you will know when it is time to hang up the keys and that time has come for me.  

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.

Vicki was here

 Nancy is not feeling well these days as her constant headache is still with her.   Because of her faiing kidney she has to be careful of what pain medicine she takes.\

I'm doing about as good as an old fella is suppose to be, I guess.
I will be 84 next month and I just do not know how a person is suppose to feel at that age.

                                                                 

I still eat good "real good".   Like each morning I start off with a cup of coffee, then sausage, egg croissant with Hungarian Pepper, tomato and a few tater tot's.

I've been keeping myself busy with watching the NCAA sectional tournaments and really enjoying it.

I took Vicki our daughter to the St Pete Airport to catch a plane back to Lexington Kentucky.
She has been here for a couple of weeks to help us while I was on the recuperating from the heart cath.

Thanks Vicki for being here, your Mom and I enjoyed having you here visiting us very much.

Thank you for stopping by and have a great day.

Heart Cath

Not much as usual has been going on.

I did have the heart cath on this passed Wednesday and everything looks good,
Although the Artery has 45 percent blockage doctors will not do anything until it goes to 75 percent before they will clear it out.  So in the meantime the report on the all is ok.
That is the report also on the heart valves all looks good, no problem.

I'm a little sore on the groin incision but other wise doing good as expected.

As I have mentioned before this is a good time of year for me, with the NCAA Basketball Tournaments going on.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.

Small Park

 As usual I'm still into the college basketball games with not many games until the big tournament.

Nancy is doing a little better but still very weak.  She pushes herself to do some work but tires very easy. 
I guess we are getting old but, that should not be any reason for getting so tired as we do.

                                                     

I did get out the other day to see some of the Gulf water at a small park behind the Walmart store where I did a little shopping.

                                                    

It sure did feel good with the spring type breeze coming off the water.



It is so soothing to look out upon the waters.


It doesn't need to be an ocean, it can be a river, or lake even a small creek with a waterfall.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.

Happy Valentine's Day

 Yes its that time of year did you remember to get you loved one a box of candy or some flowers.

If you go to any of the stores I don't see how anyone could forget to by anything with the way they have the flowers and candy stacked up right in the door as you enter.
I do hope you have a wonderful day with that special person.

Well , I now know when I'm scheduled to go into the hospital for my cath.  It will be on March 2 and if the Doc finds anything he will go ahead and take care of it while he is in there looking it all over.

I'm still all caught up on my College Basketball games with most of the teams having just six more games before the Tournaments.

I'm still doing a few things around the house plus now since Nancy isn't feeling well I have her few things to take care of.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.

Mostly Doctor appointments

I still have not heard anything from my Cardiologist when he is going to do the catheterization procedure.
When I left the office the only thing they said was that it would be on a Wednesday or Friday and they would call and let me know. 
I guess I may have to call them, sometimes that happens with doctors.

                                                                 

Nancy had us some pinto beans with onions and slaw the other day .  She always leaves it up to me do do the slaw.



I did get around to repair the leaking faucets in the bathtub.  I put the new nobs and the trim on.

I'm still going up to the storage place where we have the motor home to do small things in it.
The solar that I have its the batteries fully charged.

Nancy had a fall in the house the other day that gave her a few bruises.  So I guess she will be sore for a while.

Still keeping up with the college basketball games for a season the has a new number one every now and then.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.

Cardiologist Report.

                                                                  


Monday I when to see my Cardiologist to see what all my blood work and the rest of the things I had showed up anything.  The doctor said that it looked like there is a restriction in the blood flow and that he would have to do a catheterization procedure to see what its all about.
Now I'll have to wait until I get a call on when to go into the hospital to have it done.

I'm in hopes that will up me not to get so tired after I do a little work time.  Its no fun taking two days of work to do one day of work.

Anyway everything on the college basketball front is looking good.  Still a lot of upsets going on. 


                                                                 

This caught my eye at the Walmart store the other day.
I guess it depends on what side you get the green pepper is what you have to pay.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.
