USMB Coffee Shop IV

I blame it on old age... And I think I have to take a whiz every 2 hours... Just call me dribbles...
Right now I blame it on the surgery........... We males have two muscles that hold back the flow, the sphincter and the prostate. My prostate has been ground back to normal size, kinda sorta and it has to now shrink back to internally to where it's supposed to be. So for now I only have the sphincter and it's been held open for over a week by the catheter, I have to do "sphincter" exercises to get it working properly again while it's doing double duty.

Good Morning from Scotland :springbed: Anyone for coffee ?:coffee-24:
Well good morning Alexa. So happy you found us. We have patrons of the Coffee Shop from many countries, but I think you are probably the first from Scotland. My maternal grandmother was a second generation Scot and I have always wanted to visit there. Anyway please read over the OP to see what we're all about here in the Coffee Shop and keep right on joining in. Welcome! Welcome! Oh and first timers receive a complimentary beverage:

Hombre had prostate surgery some years ago when he tested positive for cancer. Blessedly they got it all with the surgery and he needed no further treatment, but he knows exactly what you're dealing with.
 
I used to love doing that kind of stuff. I have/had an uncle by marriage who was head of the Anthropology/Archeology Dept. at what was then West Texas State at Canyon TX. In addition to being the head curator at the really fine museum at the university, he used to go on a lot of digs and I was lucky enough to accompany him on a few of those. Great fun. Ringel05 is our Civil War expert in the Coffee Shop. Don't know that he is a relic hunter but he joins in the re-enactments here and there and makes his own very authentic costumes.
I don't collect relics, but I have a number of very old books. Some from the 17th century.

If you come across antiquarian books of that kind of age, you might well be able to pick them up cheaply because not many people know the value of them. I recommend buying them because you can often make a big profit selling to experts at specialist antiquarian book auctions.

I purchased a volume of John Foxes book of martyrs for £10 and subsequently saw a copy on the internet for £850. I call that a profit.

I have a few old books, I need to dig them out and see what they might be worth. It's been 10 years since I even looked for them but I seem to remember a few from the early 1900's and at least one from 1800 something.

We have an old book we acquired in one of those 'mystery boxes' at an estate sale. It has a signature of Mark Twain in ink in it. We really need to have it appraised to see if it is authentic.

Good Morning from Scotland :springbed: Anyone for coffee ?:coffee-24:
My wife‘s family lives in Alloa, she is a typical ginger Irish/Celt
She has a flat face common with most Scottish/Irish women who you see in the south of Scotland.
She has a fiery temper, I am mostly laid back and it frustrates her when I am not riled by her obvious attempt at intimidation.
It takes a lot for me to be pulled into her angst.
Red heads…..a real red head like my wife is easy to spot once you get intimate.
(Message me if you want the answer)
 
Had to buy a new phone today... What a mess... Smart fone my ass! Anyway I got a new fone and found a picture of Granddaughter from about a year ago... She likes her puppy and her puppy loves her...
A years difference in the pics...

Most of my ancestors are from Scotland. Both sisters did a DNA, and the vast majority of it was Scottish.

So WELCOME... you could be family... :rock:
Thank you so much for the welcome ... i could be family but we are all interlinked to each other in more ways than we know we express our self in many ways like music art and books , we express our happiness love and pain through art music and books and there is always someone who have gone through what you have and empathize with you we are all human and we are family no matter how much we fight or disagree with each other because sometimes family can be like that
