Stuff....

This is one of the examples of our health care dollar at work. Don't get me wrong, if it were up to me I would give them all the money they asked for without an argument but that opinion is coming from a strictly biased point of view. This thing is a modern marvel to say the least. It projects outward at the pivot point to the table you are clamped to, rotates 360 degrees, can pinpoint a tumor the size of a pin head and zap it with radiation while at the same time causing very little if any damage to the surrounding cells and tissue, unlike in years past where it had to bombard a much larger area causing much more damage to surrounding tissue. And it also can take photos of it's progress, how cool is that. I am impressed even though my neck and chest looks like a wiener that has been in the broiler too long and man does it hurt.
I have missed the last couple of roundtables and wouldnt you know it when I am not there I would win a 100 grand from the boss who, in some sort of goofy state, gave it to my WIFE to give to me!!!! Luckily, it got to me intact and at this point in time it is in a safe place waiting for me to enjoy it (without the use of a blender).
The weekend is looming, and the weatherman is calling for a lot of rain. That is not good. The crops guys have the beans done and a good run into the corn, they didn't need the rain to slow them down.
Well, it is getting late, (2:53 A.M.) so I will go for now..............:))))

Just Ramblin.....

Yes I found a better mouse trap. Trouble is, way too much clean up to do plus I still have to feed the cat, but he CAN reload without me.
As of next Monday, I will be half way through my radiation and chemo treatments. To this point I think I am doing OK with the side effects although I am almost hairless and just about finished ingesting food except through a peg tube which kinda takes all the fun out of it if you know what I mean. The nausea and the ulcers and extreme burning in the throat is the worst, the fatigue is just a given. Hopefully a big mac and fries are only a few months away!!!
Well, the flu is starting to rare it's ugly head along with strep throat and maybe a little laryngitis, that appears to be what Lori has had. A few others have shown signs of strep throat but no flu like fevers yet......
I am hoping for a big warm up next week so the boys can get back to beans but the weather man says we could see some snow flakes Saturday night, go figure.....
Chase pulled in South Dakota and took 8th place out of 33 in his class, WAY TO GO CHASE, what a great run you have had, next year is only a few monts away so get ready. Had to be a most excellent trip for all, Andy and Stacy even managed to run into some old friends they hadn't seen in years, a win win trip if you ask me.....
It has to be nap time or at least ralax time so I will......:)))
