COLD DARK ROOM

[Cathie G]

Thank you! My wife was driving. She ended up with 3 fractured vertebrae in her neck, fractured scapula, slight head injury and a cut on her arm.
The worst thing for her is she remembers every part of the accident.
I remember nothing so sometimes I think she got the worst end of the deal.

Such a wonderful story of survival. It doesn't mean that God hates the people that don't survive. He loves them too. It means you have a purpose and you're not done yet.

When we bought our house and I was remodeling the kitchen. I pulled the stove out and there were about 30 little balls and fuzzy toys. The first thing I thought the previous owner must of had ferrets.

Or our cat Dilly...

I must be missing something.... I just see regular fries? They don’t even look curly to me‍♀️

I think you're right Heather, I just zoomed in and they are crinkle cut chips - I hope

 

[Cathie G]

is that the same as a rotary clothes line?

No. You sink 2 wooden poles. However wide you want the clothesline. It's a set of pulleys(2 on each pole) then you thread the clothesline through all that. Reptilomy might know what I'm talking about.

 

[Cathie G]

Probably correct!!! Lol! They are characters! Very smart and always into crap!

And sooo cute.

Gosh Karen you could have had a really bad head injury. Glad it wasn't anything too serious causing it.
I went through a phase of fainting like that when I was in my 20s, I didn't go to the doctor so never found out why but it was probably BP.
I once fainted when I was on a walk with the family - if it hadn't been for my nose I would have landed flat on my face!
They picked me up and leaned me on a gate but I fainted again and rattled down the 5 bars catching my chin!
I looked as if I'd had a few rounds in the boxing ring not a gentle walk.

We are survivors! I'm lovin it.

Those blood clot filters can be pretty nasty too. They are breaking apart and it's not pretty.

Yes I feel like a ticking time bomb. The IVC filter is guarding me from the blood clot breathing loose. Then I see one of those lawsuit commercials about the filter breaking apart and going to your lungs or heart.
They only like to keep the filter in for 6 months. I am at 5 months now. Now that one clot has dissipated and the other is smaller. I can't wait to get the filter out.
The blood thinner I am taking must be working.

 

[Ray--Opo]

That's a relief for you Ray, glad everything is OK.

Thanks the blood thinner I am taking is doing its job.

I agree Cathie

Not the best picture, but hopefully you all can see the colors...

I do!!! I can’t believe I have never seen that now that everyone is talking about it... apparently it’s been around for a while.... I’m closely related to the ostrich I believe [emoji23]
Anyhow, very pretty!

 

[KarenSoCal]

Well back from the ultrasound. Blood clot in left leg is gone. Right leg is smaller so they will be removing the IVC filter
And I had McDonald's since the subject was brought up

Great news! So glad for you! [emoji2]

 

[KarenSoCal]

I worry about that too. I'm on bp medicine. If I get better mine will be dropping too. I'm sorry but 74/ 50 makes me wonder if they know what they're talking about.

That's close to what mine was when I couldn't stay upright! A really horrible feeling!

Oh my! You must have really been a sight to behold!

 

[KarenSoCal]

If he hasn't put it up yet check out the Canadian clothesline with pulleys. They work. You stand in one place and move the clothes line to you. You don't have to keep moving the basket of clothes you move the clothesline.

I put one up like that many years ago at my first house. It went from the porch to a tree. Worked great!

 

[Ray--Opo]

Great news! So glad for you! [emoji2]

Thanks Karen some of my stress has been relieved.

Nope it was a 1999 F150. I really only used it to tow my boat about 15 miles to lake Michigan. I didn't really pursue Ford. While I was in a coma my wife had a lawyer look into it. The saving grace is my auto insurance has catastrophic lifetime pip. So everything has been covered by State Farm.

Thank goodness for that.

Sitting in the hospital waiting for a ultrasound on my leg and a half
I have blood clot in each leg and they want to check if I can have my IVC filter taken out.

That is not good right?

We are buying our dream farm soon. I’m getting hubby to put me up a clothes line.

So the house sale is going through great. Well done.
