COLD DARK ROOM

[Maro2Bear]

Happy Friday. One of my kayaking friends was out on the Potomac River earlier this week & spotted a few turtles. A sure sign of Spring.

I did get some results today from my colonoscopy. The good news is I only had 2 polyps that were small and negative since I can't remember how to spell benine. Don't have to go through that again for 7 years. However, I do have lymphocytic colitis which is good news in a weird way. I have a name and know a possible cause having had COVID 19 around that time. Now I know how and what I'm fighting. Not knowing what you're fighting makes it worse.

I have a different version of colitis for freakin years. Now you can I can talk about tort poop and our poop....lol glad for you!

It will be held in Ludington Michigan on lake Michigan. We will be targeting king salmon, Coho salmon, steelhead and lake trout. Use mostly artificial baits, we have one rig that we put a filleted herring on it. It is all trolling for the fish. You get 10 points per fish and 1 point per pound. You are aloud 5 fish.
Here is just one spoon I have. I am sure I have 2000 spoons of all different colors. Some even glow in the dark. This is my boat itis a 24'. Soon when my oldest son changes job's. We are going to get a 32' boat. So he can start a charter service. View attachment 340915

That sounds like so much fun! No wonder you're geared up to go this year. And that's a lot of spoons. I'd end up with them all tangled up by the end of the day. So you gots to take care of yourself so you can have some fun. Can't wait to see the photos.

This a.m. I was out in the front yard taking down the fence so I can save the boards for re-use, and the City Engineer just happened by. He stopped to chat and mentioned, with his fingers crossed, that construction is scheduled to start on my road widening project in two weeks. Right now it's a two lane street. They'll be working on the north side (my side) first, leaving the south side for traffic. First thing they have to do is the wrecking, which includes cutting down the hill in front of my house and hauling away many yards of dirt. Then they'll build the retaining wall. The engineer said they'll be using those textured bricks like what you see in landscaping. Right now I have a big muddy mess. I'll be so glad to see that gone! In a minute I'll go take a 'before' picture.

Thanks. It's not fun that's for sure and that's any of the colitis versions. But when my tort poops really good it always makes my day. Ridiculous huh

 

[Cathie G]

Thanks for the confidence Maggie!
I needed that today after some woman
“Micro managed” me at work.
Do you ever feel like Wonder Woman one minute then.. Aqua man the next?
(Some say Aqua man is not a super hero)
She had me in circles chasing my tail!!
(And that was hard considering it was between my legs!!!!) .
No one is perfect and I for one certainly never claim to be . But one thing I know for sure!….. I know my job!
I am just so discouraged I let her get to me.
Bla..bla..bla… anyway, thank you for your encouragement

Don't worry (easy to say hard to do). People that are like that ARE like that. Many times they wind up getting micro managed themselves by their boss. I've seen them fired for being too confrontational.

 

[Cathie G]

Dear Cathie,

First I want to help you minimize this
Xcldocjsifk thing that is bothering your colon … and make you feel a lot better
Because THEN……

We are gonna celebrate YOUR birthday!!!


Eat cheese
And chocolate cake
and drink wine or whatever it is people drink now a days…
And have a good old 80s PARTAAAYY!!!
How can I help??
(I guess I could look up “skdhdxhdhs colitis” first….

I guess the doctors office probably thought I would fall over disappointed and scared that I have a disease but guess what I already knew it she almost whispered it.. it's nice to have a name to call my enemy. It makes googleing much easier. I have to make it to that birthday party

 

[Ray--Opo]

Hey Ray?
If this helps???
I don’t know about salmon
But when I fished as a kid (at the Jersey shore )
My grandma SWORE BLIND about
“BLOOD WORMS”!
We caught sooooo many fish with those darn things! Fluke mostly..

I am sure blood worms would work great for walleye fishing.

Well, I have intresting newsView attachment 340935
The waves today have been extreme, even in low tide it's been extremely high. It seemed to be almost pre tsunami conditions, waves coming in and out, flowing high up on the beach, pulling back low. But we found out a cyclone is forming deep in the Indian ocean, of the coast of SA, moving towards Madagascar.
We luckily have high waves, but they'll sadly face the brunt of a cyclone

A ….. SSSSSS…cyclone?
Isn’t that a really BAD tornado?
Over water??
Poor animals…

 

[Chefdenoel10]

Thanks. It's not fun that's for sure and that's any of the colitis versions. But when my tort poops really good it always makes my day. Ridiculous huh

So does that mean
Now… when you….uh…”go”
It will make YOUR day as well??

Thanks Cathy.
Your birthday cake just got even bigger!

I know what you mean!!!
I would rather have a name to call my ailment rather than guess…
Is it this?…
Is it that??…
Oh d*m could it be this thing???
Now you (and us) know what we are diagnosing and can find things that will ease the pain…
Although, I heard once at the swap meat
That a good whiskey usually does the trick.

Sorry, when approached with bad news I always pull out my humorous side.
I don’t mean to make light of your situation.
Let’s get back to planning that birthday party!!

What’s “walleye “ fishing??
I am dumber than dirt… please in brief.. explain?

It's had lots of bad storms already this year.
Lots of beautiful aldabras in and around Madagascar, I hope there won't be too many casualties for them or the population

You feel the same as me. For once I actually got a diagnosis and I think it's a clue to helping all of my health problems in the long run. So im getting back to planning that birthday party too. The way I figure it I have to live until I'm at least 100 cause I have a tort I have to outlive. And my gasser doctor just said I have to get that colonoscopy so I think I'll bake him a cake

At my age pooping good makes MY day...

Yeah, and I think it's something like the fourth one this month hitting Madagascar?

It is a type of fish in the Great Lakes. I remember fishing Lake Erie to catch the B@$tards and getting sick from the 5-10 waves. Erie is shallow so it gets wavy quickly
