Tomorrow I'm having a tooth pulled and graft material put in...last time I went thru this I dealt with infection for awhile and never did get the implant. Also 10 years ago when I was still smoking, dentist tried 2 implants that infections basically rejected. So I'm not looking forward to this. Getting a cantilever bridge because it's near front tooth, so 2 appointments, then in a few months I'll have to decide if I want to try for an implant or continue with bridge.
PEWP.
Poor me :(
PEWP indeed! Good luck with all of this fiddling around in your poor mouth! Wish I had thought of a fixed bridge instead of the upper plate. It is still not something I can wear for very long. I need to get back to the dentist, but scheduling appointments is such a hassle with my non-existent schedule.

Hang in there ((((Mer)))). It will soon be one for the history books and you will be tickled pink with the results.

The 18th is getting closer. I'm just trying to spend as much time with Mom as possible before it's time for the transplant and another month with her in the hospital. :( Luckily Vae can help keep me sane. Not looking forward to the road ahead but hopefully things will go smoothly.

Even if the recovery is a year or two (assuming it works) it's worth it as long as Momma Saint is happy and healthy at the end. Unfortunately sometimes the recovery actually is that long. Fingers crossed for a speedy recovery!

Good to see you again buddy.
I miss having you check in regular.
Don't f%^k around with that diabetes. It will cut short the quality time with that 32 y/o kitty. If you aren't partnered up with an endocrinologist, do so toot sweet.....Hawk orders.

Now that you know where we're at, pop in regular and help me keep an eye on these knuckles.

Thank you buddy!

Between you and keith, i can celebrate for three straight days.

Sent from my SM-G935P using Tapatalk

Happy B-day buddy.
50 just means you can give up without feeling regretful.
It's kinda liberating.

Plus.....yelling "get off my yard" is acceptable now.
We have a momma robin that hears that every day......she flipped me off this morning.....but I know where her nest is so that avian biotch might want to rethink her haughtiness.

Some congestion...better than he other day. Could be allergies.
Granbear - Don't know about things on the far coast, but 'round here there is a hanger on virus blanketing entire state. Starts off with sore throat for couple days, then cough (dry type), severe congestion, headaches, and more night coughs. Taking about 6 weeks for it to infect someone else and leave you alone.

Bed time...alarm @ 2:30am.
Been dealing with a pinched nerve. Been trying to be tough. Broke down and doctored up Friday.
I hate being a kitty about minor shiate like this, but I could barely lift my arm above chest high on Friday morning.
20 years ago I would have drank and self medicated that nerve into submission.....I don't do that very well anymore.....cuz I'm in my 50's(looking at 1Pak)......and that doesn't work anymore.

Thank god for my 32 y/o boxers.....straight up coolness that's timeless.
Suck it millineals.........and get off my lawn.

Does this mean I have someone to talk gardening with? the green thumbs have spread to my brain lol

Talking about your bike has me missing Suzie. A 73 Suzuki TS250, raw 2-stroke power! Although my 250 lb cousin did quite a number on the shocks, apparently he had as much fun with her as I did... kinda the same situation with my ex and my old crew lmao at least we kept Suzie in the family!

Laundry and stuff... and stuff is a good workout, especially on the abs hehe
a picture, it really did happen! Not that I ever doubted any of you knucks or boofs. You guys are much better friends than the ones I thought I had

You'll always be a tough kitty no matter what anyone says. But, I do have a walker I can send your way if you need it.

Got busted vaping by my grand daughter the other night. She and my wife seem to think it has something to do with my getting sick. Can't argue with their emotions, so will have to sneak it when they're not around . . . :wait:

Free garden fresh veggies are always good, well, almost free lol. Momma Saint is actually my Mom, No worries, Your not the first to make the mistake. She got the name from someone here (I looked at one point but couldn't find the origin), but there have been a couple people in my grow group that have made the mistake.

Your list is a bit more impressive than mine, I started at 8 too, Riding that big beastly hog around the driveway... and by big beasty hog I mean a 78 Honda spree lmao then there's the suzuki group, a TC-100 and a TS-250 both from '73, Then we adopted Bonnie, She's a TS-250 from 1970 that my dad found at a yard sale for $100. I think it cost us a tube of gasket maker and of course, a good carb cleaning. Bonnie doesn't quite have the same UMPH as Suzie, but she's still alot of fun to ride... Lots of conversations reminding me of ex gf's lately, hmm lol

I was planning on being a mechanic through high school, but I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, which started causing a lot of pain and some nerve damage when I hit about 18. I would have friends pat me on the back and it would send the most painful shock down my spine that I would immediately let out a quick scream. Now I put all the time I would've put into bikes into plants of one variety or another. I have some Romanesco seeds coming today. A really badass vegetable if such a thing exists. its kinda got the Fibonacci sequence within the Fibonacci sequence.
