USMB Coffee Shop IV

Good morning all. It doesn't seem possible that it is another Wednesday already. The days are just zooming by. I'm awaiting the arrival of the Comcast tech who hopefully will get our phones back up and running. And Hombre will do the medical taxi run with Uncle Ed today. Hope BBD has found some relief for his shoulder, that Mertex's dental adventure goes well, that Gracie and 007's Mom get good reports, and all are looking forward to a productive or at least a pleasant day.

Well... it's not good... got a call from my younger sister about 30 minutes ago and she said Ma has a perforated appendix, however the hell that happens, and her pulmonary embolism is back. She'll have to have surgery for the perforated appendix, but that's going to be very tricky being as she has a pulmonary embolism, so... it's bad... no matter how you look at it.

So, I think I'm going to call the radio station and postpone this DJ taping. I just don't feel all bubbly and cheerful right now, not with a mother laying gravely ill in the hospital.

They can do amazing thing though 007. My Aunt Betty, at age 86 last year, went through two perforated appendix situations until they finally decided to take out the bad appendix--something they resisted doing because of her age (86) and because of numerous other serious health issues that she has. But they finally did it and she came through with flying colors. So your mom is in our prayers and we will expect the best. A perforated appendix is serious--not good at all--but it's better than cancer.

Wow....that looks really good.

 

[Smilebong]

Wow....that looks really good.

Before my heart attack I used to eat things like that.

 

[JakeStarkey]

Had lunch at Farrs today on South Temple, and the hot dogs were amazing!

 

[Montrovant]

Wow....that looks really good.

Before my heart attack I used to eat things like that.

I'd never eat anything like that. Ruining a good burger with all that slop!

Good news, I don't have the flu.

Bad news. I may have breast cancer again.

Biopsy was done today, will have the results next week.

Your little sister deserves a medal for taking for mother into the hospital for this ailment. A perforated appendix should not be left untreated for a month. Now that you have a diagnosis find out all the options and the outcomes and then ask your mother what she wants to do.

Keeping you all in my thoughts!

Here's hoping for a benign diagnosis, Sheila.

Sometimes I like to dip my steak in sour cream.

Dipping one's meat is a very personal issue.

Dipping? You guys have commitment issues?

Used to. Then my current wife showed me her favorite collection of knives.........

Good morning, everyone, and a great Hump-Day to you!

Today's choice: MIX and MATCH!.

Person no. 1, who in no way has any relation to person no. 2!

Kate Upton!

What does it mean that I don't know who Kate Upton is but I do know who Justin and B.J. Upton are?

I thought everyone on the planet knew who Kate Upton is...

Bikini Animated GIF

Heard the name, never knew who she was/is. Don't read Sports Illustri-ated or watch much TV and then never sports.

Woke up this morning with absolutely no energy and tons of work to do around the house. Did what I could for a while then laid back down, pollen count was 9 out of 10...... I'm awake again, guess I needed the sleep.

Greetings!
Busy, busy, busy...
I've been prepping for the new semester that starts on the 24th. My powerpoints are pretty well done, although I have a few I want to re-work because I'm just not satisfied with them. I also have the first four homework assignments "in the can". Next I'll work on the labs. The labs are abysmal and probably most difficult to redesign. The school only really has facilities and supplies for 7-10 students per lab but I end up with double that number every class now.
With only one day a week available to work on that shed, I am not satisfied with the progress so far. I want the main part weathertight before the snow flies. I can always build the shelves inside later.
So much to do, so little time. Dang, where does it all go.
Hope 007s mom gets the care she needs and Sheila's biopsy comes back benign. Noomi and her peeps look pretty fit.
Everyone have a great day.

Hope it's nothing serious, Sheila. My prayers are with you.

Gosh, sorry to hear that...you seem to have a lot on your plate and postponing your DJ gig seems like a good idea. Will continue to keep your mother in my prayers, and you, too, so you are able to be strong for your mom.

 

[Mertex]

Good news, I don't have the flu.

Sheila....will be keeping you in my prayers too, and hope your biopsy comes back showing no cancer....

 

[Mertex]

Well, my dental surgery went smoothly....the only painful thing about this 2nd phase, is the shot they give you to numb the area.....man, that was some big needle.....

Anyway, it didn't take that long, less than an hour, and I was out of there. I'm a tad sore, but he said Motrin should be enough....if not, I still have some pain killers from Phase 1...but the numbness is going away and I'm not feeling a lot of pain....keep my fingers crossed.

Bad news.....I have to eat soft foods for 2 weeks! Yikes! 2 weeks is a long, long time.

 

[Gracie]

Good news, I don't have the flu.

Bad news. I may have breast cancer again.

Biopsy was done today, will have the results next week.

Praying it is just dead fatty tissue!

Not me. I'm a monogamous dipper. I dip that piece of steak in just one sauce on that evening!
