Good Friday Morning D
65° outside with sunny skies. No rain today as we get up to a very nice 86° and this will be our warmest day of 2023. I am loving it. Down in Orlando they may hit 90°.
My wife has been following the Murdaugh Murders trial up in South Carolina and she asked me to watch a little of it. The head of this family had an addiction to power and greed like I have not seen in a long time. I SMH in disbelief as I listen to and watched. But the good folks of South Carolina were not fooled with his constant lies and convicted him in less than 3 hours. The trial has been going on for 6 weeks. Too bad he will not get the death penalty. Maybe an inmate will take care of that once he gets to State Prison.
I spent some time in Walterboro, SC during Hurricane Hugo and enjoyed my time there. Very nice and friendly people who knew how to cook BBQ and catfish and hush puppies. It looks a lot like my part of Florida. Live oak trees, palms and marsh land with a lot of wildlife. Felt like home.
@warrior-cat get that BP down man, it is important. We are praying for you and @AustinTXCat. The UK basketball cats raise my blood pressure at times but never 200/140. That is off the charts and in stroke or cardiac problem territory. Prayers for sure.
Nice gator @storm1507 . I think his daddy lives out behind my house in the Weeki Wachee Wildlife Preserve aka to us old folks as a SWAMP.
Take care all, Hogs tomorrow.

Good luck. I'm on BP meds and watch diet pretty close. So far, it seems to be working.
Morning D-Legionnaires! Thanks for the prayers.
43° this morning with 10-20mph winds. High expected to be in the mid 60's.
Feeling a little lightheaded and a small headache this morning. Probably the medication the doctor gave to me last night. That and I have not eaten since noon yesterday. He also prescribed 30 days' worth Norvasc:
"Norvasc (amlodipine) is a calcium channel blocker that dilates (widens) blood vessels and improves blood flow. Norvasc is used to treat chest pain and other conditions caused by coronary artery disease. Norvasc is also used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). Lowering blood pressure may lower your risk of a stroke or heart attack."
A list of side effects I am not too happy about so, new diet and modified exercise program in effect to do it naturally once under control.
Enough of that, TGIF for those that are working and prayers for those in need or not in need. We definitely need God's hand in the mess we have not only in this country but the world.
Stay safe out there folks and make sure you have buttoned down anything that could blow away.
Light doses of pravastatin and lisinopril here. I'm pretty satisfied with them. If there's any bad side effects, they haven't shown up yet.

I have an old black and white photo my mother took of the Old Home Place in the late 1940's. A friend had it colorized and I had it put on canvass and sent copies to some of my cousins. The ones who spent the most time there. I spent my first couple of years on earth (1943-1945) there during WWII. This was my mother's home and she stayed there during WWII while dad was away.
I am thankful we have modern technology and are able to do things like this. The Old Home was very simple and costs less than $750 to build. Grandpa milled the lumber from cypress and oak and of course back in those days, 1905, friends and neighbors built the house. No labor costs. Grandpa probably allowed them to pick as much citrus fruit as they wanted as pay back. That is how they did it back then.
Lots of memories in this old place.

Good morning. It is a very windy, cloudy 67.3°F. We have storm warnings for today.
@warrior-cat at 64 I had a heart attack, open heart surgery et.al. Don't worry about the side effects of a calcium blocker and worry about not having a heart attack. Heart doctors do wonders on a daily basis. Listen to them. One good thing that you have going for you is that you are in good shape. With a little chemistry and attention you can go back to you life 100%.
@AustinTXCat best of luck to your stomach.

I really like my medical insurance provided by Humana. I just received a call that they will send someone to my home, no charge to massage my feet and trim toenails, etc.
I have never had this in my life so I might give it a try. Nothing to lose as it is free, thanks to Humana.

Tornado watch till 1, sirens have been going off clear as can be right now, but another cloud coming in behind it. Tornado up around Evansville. Wind is howling here right now!!!!
Tornado watch until 5 PM here.
My little girl is the COO of Humana. Should I tell her that they have an appreciative customer?
I may tell her that you are planning on abusing the program!
My little girl a long time ago:
Please tell her I am a very very very satisfied customer and also tell her about my agent. I have an excellent agent. Her name is Debbie Kern Haney. DKernHaney@humana.comMy little girl is the COO of Humana. Should I tell her that they have an appreciative customer?

My little girl a long time ago:
Your daughter should give my agent a shout out because I have recommended many friends and relatives to HumanaChoice Florida PPO because of the great service my agent gives. A very fine company.
Is your agent as cute as my little girl?
Thank goodness Jefferson Co. KY schools called off class today for the kids. I'm sure it would have been traumatic for them to watch the rain come down during class. I'm glad my tax dollars are helping to keep them safe from these crazy weather events...called rain.
Sure glad you caught it brother wc. Prayers your way. Take care of your self, your family needs you...

Good morning from ATX. Currently 52°F, clear and windy. Lotsa rain last night. Today's high expected around 74°F.
@warrior-cat : That BP way too high. Yikes! Sending prayers in your direction. Please get well soon! Please.
Chemo wiped me out yesterday afternoon. Experienced another negative reaction during treatment, although lesser than Wednesday. Stopped at Culver's for Cod sandwich and butterfly shrimp. Ola, lovely. Stomach hanging tough, but felt upset all night. Slept 4-10 pm in the chair and again for an hour this morning. Another round scheduled today. Then take a 3-week break.
Last regular season game tomorrow from Hog House down in Fayetteville. Hope Wallace comes back. Broadcast begins at 1 pm CST. Go Cats!
Happy Friday, y'all. Wishing everyone a great end to your week.
Brother ATXC, I do hope this your going through is healing you. God's healing power toward you and brother wc. I've had some recent issues but neither of that variety.
When I lived in SA, I lived on I-10 and DeZavala in a subdivision down the street (Hart Ranch) Anyway we had a culvers about a quarter mile away... and a Bill Millers about a half mile away. My Darling and I were younger (about 12 to 16 years ago.) We frequented the joints. My Darling never but I gained 40 pounds while living in SA.
I got my fitbit back a month to two months ago and I am again trending correctly. Within 20 pounds of where I want to be (200), I want to go down to 199 just once and then between 200 and 205.. Must do that before the Thanksgiving holidays start if The Lord doesn't take me home.....
Take care of yourselves brothers.....

It's a little breezy here in L-Ville.
Same here...well, except for the diet part. I used to really watch what I ate after heart attack #1 and got back on it for a while after HA #2, but once the Heart Doc put me on a Supper drug...well, I tend to venture off the diet plan. I just don't tell her.

Yeah, I was diagnosed with CAD back in about 2011 or so. They put me on a heavy dose regimen of Niacin and vitamin D. I did some research and stopped eating a lot of the bad I was eating. While I guess I still have it, I have had multiple tests including the nuclear stuff and they've stated they see no large difference with what I had then which was some placque build up but not a significant build up. I am religious about what I do not eat but other than that, since My we went to Korea in 2012 My Darling has not been working a full time gig any longer and her cooking straightened me out. I am thankful...
I still take niacin regularly though I did stop for about a year. I always liked taking vitamin D but I dropped down a lot from what they told me to take then... (Not much on extremes.) (The cardiologist I have been going to since I arrived in Virginia told me there is not data about the niacin suggesting it helps but I take the stuff that flushes you and that sensation has to be doing something in my book. He stated it wouldn't hurt me, so I will just keep that going.)
Anyway, I am thankful...
Oh no you didn't Sir..............SHOCK.....................
ALL of you: Act like brother Sir SC never posted this post. Just ignore it.....
Brother Sir SC be ....................................................................woke............... (Maybe)...

You convinced me no toe nail trimming. BBUK, thanks my brother. I will continue to do it with my hawk bill pocket knife the way grandpa and daddy did it all of their lives.
So when the young lady comes around I will refer her to my wife and save money the wife spends on pedicures down at the J C Penny's Store.
What joy unspeakable.... I need you all. Thanks!

Electricity been out for 6 hours Trees down because of wind. Electric company has no idea when it will be back on. Oh well.
That reminds me, friend of mine wanted to borrow my pocket knife to cut his apple up, when he got done he told me that's a good knife, it's sharp, why carry a good one like that? I told I had to keep it sharp so I could clean squirrels, rabbits and clean my fingernails!You convinced me no toe nail trimming. BBUK, thanks my brother.

Good morning from ATX. Currently 45°F, clear and calm. Today's high may hit 81°F. We'll take it.
Chemo went well yesterday. Thankfully. Nurse lowered infusion rate and increased steroids + painkillers. No more chemo for a few weeks. I've got a Doppler test come next Monday. Doggone blood clots. Meh, country boy can survive. Grabbed Wendy's fish sammich + small loaded chili after treatment.
Plan on mowing grass later this AM. Good exercise. Hope old push-mower starts. Stay tuned.
Game today, gents, from good old Bud Walton Arena. Hearing many players are out, like Wallace and CJ. Huge bummer, if true. Go Cats!
Wishing y'all an awesome Saturday. Take care.

I hope this referee does not show up at Arkansas today.
In my best British accent: I always thought you were a CAD but now I know.
Yeah, I don't know yet what is and what isn't in my case totally other than the BP but, I believe it spiked because of the pains and my reaction to it. It was a bit high for a while before that and I did not take it serious enough. I suppose I need to get going with it. I set up an appointment with a cardiologist as suggested as well, but they can't see me until around 13 April. All booked up, and some people here in this country want universal healthcare. How long do you think it would take to get an appointment if we had that? (Rhetorical)
Beat me too it.
