Mornin B2. Up early cuz I fell asleep like at 8.

Lately that is my normal. I try to at least read in bed.

Work is crazy right now. Big project popping next week and I have a planned long weekend away.

Typical work BS.

I’ve been having leg and foot pain the last few mos. My primary thought my varicose veins were acting up again, so went to vascular guy. He is a great doc and did my varicose veins a few years ago.

He doesn’t think this is a vascular issue. But an ultrasound will rule it out. That means maybe I’m just getting old or maybe it’s a muscular/skeletal issue. Possibly a nerve issue.

Back to work. Really busy right now.

I am glad you are seeing a doctor about the leg and foot pain. How long before you can retire? I sense you and others are ready emotionally. I think it’s a good idea to do so before the body says you can’t do anything active.

In 2025 I want to go to Zion National Park in the fall. However, I need to see what the prostate MRI says. Getting old is a b@##$

Not really a rant but I guess an annoyance.

I still have a good 5-7 years in me I think. At 57, I wanna get to Medicare if I can. But I also wanna enjoy and work more fuller time at the farm (which doesn’t really pay the bills, but is much more satisfying.

We’ll see.

I had a prostatectomy a few years back, cancer. It was a relief and few adverse side effects. We want to go to Alaska next year and will probably try to go to Zion and a few other parks we missed along the way the last time around.

Also good for your skin!

I worked in the engineering lab of a company that manufactured them. China put us out of buiness but it was great fun working on test panel with them.

Hey, girl! Get over here to get measured for your pink girl-gang leather jacket!

You know you have to pay for her jacket...

I’ll gladly pay for her jacket!!

(The missus is a bit overwhelmed by how quickly this thread goes!)

Rooting for the tree, but not at the risk of the house. Glad you've got some connections to help you figure it all out. Proactive is better than reactive IMO

Im with L2 on this one.

It’s always better to be proactive than have to react to it.

Let us know what the tree surgeon thinks.

Morning everyone! Heading to Philly this morning. Will catch up later. Hope everyone slept well and keeps warm today.
