COLD DARK ROOM

[Lyn W]

Good morning/afternoon all.
We've had a mixed morning of sunshine and showers, but rain is on the way for this afternoon.
Lola is very active but hasn't made any attempt to pop out into the garden yet. He is eating like a horse! I can't get enough weeds for him so having to bulk them out with some salad bags.

I'm off out for a little walk to another good weed source before the rain arrives so see you later.
Have a restful Sunday.

The temp today was 86 and going up to triple digits again next week. We set highs that were never reached before. 79 people in Oregon died from the heat. Generally because they didn't have air conditioners or fans. I have 1 small air conditioner in my bedroom. 2 fans in the living room. No air in my car...well, that's not quite true...I know some people know I have 2/80 air...roll down 2 windows and go 80 mph...old joke...haha

That’s great news Ray!!!!
Now ... what else could those objects???
No chance they could be pellet gun pellets?
Still praying for ya!! ??
Keep good thoughts and good vibes!!

Not pellets ?
A lot of worries off of me this morning!??

 

[Ray--Opo]

Yeah! I have one like that on my right shin and it looks like a pea is stuck under my skin. Doppler years ago showed it was just a plain mass that they think was originally a bone chip off my shin (very active kid) that just built up scar tissue. I hope the best for you and listen to Rose more often, at least at my house it is smarter option listening to my wife Keri!

That is true, I hate it when Rose is always right ??????

 

[Ray--Opo]

I'm sorry for all your troubles Ray, but very pleased to hear you're there to let the docs find out what's going. on. I really hope it's nothing too drastic but better safe than sorry.
Take care or even better let them take care of you.

Thanks Lyn ?

 

[Ray--Opo]

That's great, would they cause the swelling?
At least now you have 'peas' of mind!!
Hopefully the hard peas will be gone soon too.

Hopefully I will find answers when I see the specialist.

My son Jim is making me proud. He is learning to put fish in the boat. When fishing is slow. Before he would be on the phone with me, asking questions on what to do. He is finally figuring it out.

That's awful! Keep a spray bottle of water handy and give yourself a spritz occasionally. That and the fan will cool you off nicely.

That last picture reminds me of a question that's been on my mind for a very long time: Why do some rods show fishing with the eyes on the top of the rod and some with the eyes on the underside of the rod? When I used to fish, way back in the dark ages, we always held our rods with the eyes on the underside of our spinning rods.

If you use a reel like this, the rod is made so the eyelets are up.

If you use reels like these ,the rod is made so the eyelets are down.

That was a sunset but still nice.

Well good news there are no new blood clots. There are 3 hard pea sized objects at the base of my calf muscle kinda deep from the surface of the skin. That is what my doctor thought was clots. So much for educated guesses. When they pressed on them with their fingers. It hurts like hell, that is why I went to the hospital. Today there was mild pain all the time. Where before only when I pressed on them. Since it doesn't seem life threatening, they gave me a vascular specialist to make a appointment with. At least I am at ease now. Thanks everyone for your concerns.

He would have ordered the tests anyway or already did and now you've speeded up the process. I don't think they know how stressful it is too wait like that. I'm glad you and Rose aren't as worried and you can enjoy the holiday weekend. It was worth it.?

Yes I agree. Rose was so wore out from worring.

He is fishing the eastern shore of lake Michigan. So if it was a sunrise there would be land on the horizon. It is about 60 miles west across lake Michigan to get to the west shore which is Wisconsin.

I think I made a mistake. I think it's more like 90 miles across. When you get around 12 to 15 miles from shore. You lose the site of land because of the curvature of the earth.
