He is 9 yrs older than me. It's hard for him to do anything physically. Especially with a bad lower back. Also him and I sometimes disagree on how to get to a finished product. Working on his little would projects have instructions. So we will work together fine.That's really so nice especially if he will help you with some of your projects too
Yes it does, way too fast. I need to work out a work schedule for a few projects here. My health seems to be the biggest disruptor of my schedules.
Well there won't any beer, but will be great spending time with him....it's nice to know they care though and I'm sure you'll enjoy a beer or two while you're there.
Yes. It sucks!
the older you get the faster time goes. It's like your foot is on a banana peel and time is just waiting to give you the boot as quick as possible. I'm dragging my feet as much as much as I can 
Ah'hh such a lovie!Thank you, it has been a good birthday. No card from Lola but he didn't try to barge me out of his room this morning so obviously giving me special treatment today.

There was a lovely article in the Guardian on Monday about a giant rabbit who saved her human's life by somehow sensing that he was slipping into a diabetic coma - and immediately climbed up onto him and started thumping on his chest and licking his face -his wife eventually noticed, and phoned for an emergency ambulance - otherwise it would probably have been too late. The rabbit, Dory, was made an honorary animal member of the Rabbit Welfare Association, and became quite famous. The writer's name is Simon Steggall - the story is online. I had no idea rabbits can be so sensitive - amazing !Bunnys are so hard to lose. When you get them you know they have such a short life. That doesn't make it any easier because they have wonderful personalities. Even when they are chewing your house down you can't help but love them. They're hilarious. The only way to get over it is to get another one. I can't right now because having Mr Fre wouldn't be fair to a little bunny until he gets older.

Dogs sensing medical conditions, rabbits saving a diabetic, It does NOT surprise me. But . . they are Hyper aware of their surroundings and what is in it.
Are they gone yet Ray? You know....
Lots of mammal stories of warning. I used to watch one that was very good at warning people, they even made a tv show about Lassie.
I'd love to imagine any of my turtles over the years having just a tiny bit more common sense then rock he climbs over but with several, it remained out of reach.
It's like an watching an episode of Tweaker Geographic on you tube where they can't quite get it....
So Ray was right this time. I shoved all those wires in that box and some more in the last box this morning and presto...waiting for my tub to warm up.thanks bud.
Let me be honest for a sec. Connecting 240 volt wiring terrifies me more than anything else I've ever done at home or during my field career. Nothing scares me more other than higher voltage or a bear. Im afraid of wild bears. I was really fighting the hebegebess this morning. It made it worse that this main box is bottom Fed so the load lugs, two big hunks of "Ihateyou" at your fingertips even with the power off! Kerry was volunteering at school so I texted her when it was done.
Tub warming under cover, mama deer coming by.....yup, we nailed this plan!

Yes. That's what they're like as a companion. It's a really deep connection for both pet and owned owner
. One of mine saved my life by not acting like a rabbit. Rabbits hate being held but QueSi insisted on it. One morning I was holding her as usual. When I tried to get going for the day my foot got caught up in a blanket trap. I went flying. The only thing I had time to do was place her safely in front of me. I fractured my knee cap but because I had to place QueSi safely my arms cradled my head. I only got a black eye. And the connection goes even deeper.
I actually have a friend that has Giants
which could mean a new baby. If you only knew how tempting that is. They are a pretty docile breed like Razberri was. Maybe Mr Fre would think twice 
about chasing a rabbit though.No J....and that is a fantastic comparison!
Have a 7am fasting blood/ur tests this morning. Im having black coffee now and yes it's yucky without cream & sugar but it's warm and good.
I was trying to figure out while after all the work in the past few days how come im not hurting as expected? Then it hit me...duh, we spent the better part of an hour in the tub yesterday evening. Wow, they really do work.
So we ran it through its paces, both of us opening and closing jets, air valves and diverting valves. We ran the circulation pump, main pump then 1 of us would come inside to see if we can hear it.
If it runs for 10 years the way it runs today we will be very happy. It's very quiet, no doubt the insulation I stuffed it with making a huge sound difference. The 3hp pump across 29 jets produces more power than you want so you can always taper the power by turning the Jets down. It's better to have more than not enough.
I called my old coworker Bobby yesterday. I've known him nearly 35 years and when i was hanging up he thanked me for calling. Bobby doesn't pick up a phone to call anyone. He never has, even at work! It was one of those idiosyncrasies I saw in him many years ago but because his talent was so off-the-charts that we found work-arounds for Bobby not making calls. He is doing well and it was good to chat a bit.
Im going to go hit my nebulizer before my tests. Enjoy the day guys!

Good evening/afternoon all.
Its been a soggy day here.
I went to the funeral of a friend's mother today which was so sad. She was 86 but could probably have gone on longer if she hadn't ignored a water infection. It turned to sepsis and by the time she sought help it was too late. So a cautionary tale there for all of us.
I was going to risk driving my car but decided against it and ended up taking a bus, train and taxi to get there. Which wasn't as bad as it sounds, and I had a lift back so it all worked out well.
I'm taking my car to the garage tomorrow to see what the mechanic thinks. I'm hoping it's the cheapest of all the problems it could be
. We'll see.
I hope everyone here is having a good day.

Pleased you haven't fried yourself with the electrics, Jeff and hope you enjoying simmering in the hot tub.
I have this image of you and Kerry surrounded by floating vegetables and being stirred occasionally by a cannibal!
Rose and Nanay left early Wednesday morning. Be home Sunday evening. Rose clothes she brought are for cool weather. I guess they are having some warm weather. I told her to get some lighter clothes. I asked her to stay off of Rodeo Dr. in Beverly Hills.
