Afternoon gang = = scuse the absence = = been hurting and feeling really lousy. Been at doctors, imaging, the vampire sucking out gallons of blood for testing. All comes back as extremely good, numbers all excelent, one blip on the imaging, but want to wait to redo it for another 6 weeks. They chalk it all up at this point to withdrawal problems from the statins. Unbelievable. No sleep for two nights in a row from pains in the abdomen - - why there. So I find out the statins cause LEGG muscle tissue to break down which then has to be processed by the liver, kidneys and spleen. They think the tummy stuff was the spleen. Nasty. Thought I better check in before Scotty sent the hearse for me.

Looks like all is normal around here - - but no ph00 -- I know, been gone - - sorry about that. I will try and be a better boy, mommy.

Grabbing some tea and gone to pout and moan a bit - - gee I hurt,

Bob

Hey, Bobby. I feel terrible for you, brother. I'll pray for you right now, and we'll pray for you as a family tonight. I hope you feel better.

You can come out here and use the hot tub... I'll put you up for a few.

Hmmm... I can't think of anyone I dislike that much. Altho, I could probably find someone at the trailer park that needs employment!

Jeez Bob, didn't realize you were feeling like that. Figured you were just busy entertaining all the people that converge on your place this time of year. Sorry to hear this. I'd have made ph00 if I'd known you weren't just ignoring us!

Careful Mark. You know how those old people are, they show up for a couple of days and end up spending the winter!

Evening all.

Well, feeling like crud and hurting bad hasn't stopped convergence - - just made it more difficult pulling my part of the load. I'll forgive ya for the ph00 - - but I have had a miserable week. No sleep Thursday or Friday at all, 4 hours Saturday night - - laid the pills on Sunday night and slept 11 hours. Just no energy and just plain hurt. It is somewhat better the last couple days but running to doctors and imaging. Hopefully things are in the up tick now cause they sure don't know what is wrong. Just say it is probably withdrawal from the statin drug and what it has done to me over the ten years I have been taking it. Bummer. Appreciate the words and those prayers are the best - - thanks, Mad.

Think I will hit the sack - - soooo sleepy and droopy. Crazee but no energy at all. See ya morry,

BummerBob

That sounds about right. I try to sleep in on the weekends, I don't get much past 630. We need a new bed. I'm gonna look into one of the tempur pedic's.

My sister in Florida has one of those that I slept on a couple of years ago. It was comfortable enough but it made me sweat like a pig. Seemed like the material its made of held body heat and in the morning it was like I slept in a swamp. Might've been different if the room temp was cooler, but my sister likes to keep the house around 70. I sleep best when it's around 50 or 60.

Evening DTR. Haven't been around this week. Went to work monday and have been in safety training all week. Most of it is boring but there were a few interesting parts to it. Been getting the house ready for family tomorrow. Wife is cooking a ham, I'm roasting a turkey ( wish it was deep fried but not this time), and were making alot of other good stuff to eat! I'll get to see my brother for the first time since early spring tomorrow. Talked to him on the phone once in a while, guess he's doing pretty good. He's a bartender in Bloomington, IN. Best job to have in a college town. Porbably won't be on here tomorrow till late but I want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas!

thats what the guy at the bed shop said too. I sweat enough in my sleep anyway, I couldn't imagine a bed making it worse.
