Hey mine waltripians,
Lung problems finally got the best of me...had to make one of my semi-annual trips to the ER today about noonish. Got home about 5. Each attack seems to be worse than it's predecessor...Coughed so hard the last week, bruised all the muscles in and around chest and stomach!!! My body is becoming a toxic waste dump for meds...albuterol...prednesone...hydrocodone...etc...
DW was with me, as she usually is...both our sons joined us and held my cold cold hands...sure does help, surrounded by loved ones, doesnt it??? that, and competent doctors and nurses...and Memorial City Hosp is one of the best, if not THE best...
Got a sore throat from all the lung stuff, so I am drinking SleepyTime Extra and Tension Tamer tea in one of my Harley Davidson mugs....yall dont tell ok...we'll just keep that amonst us, eh hoser!!!!
Here's a real shocker...I should be asleep, but am not...as usual. Methinks I napped an hour sometime in the ER...what is it now, almost 2...oh well...
Forgot my bionic ears today, lung problems take precedence over ears anyhoo...but all day, as now, I've noticed how muted and muffled things sound...like right now, all I hear, is the ringing in my ears...I dont even hear my fingers stroking the keyboard...well, I do hear the dinning room table groaning and complaining under the weight of a wooly mammoth. I know, I know, you dont allow your cat on the table, well neither do we...and believe me, he has received a stern warning and a good talking to for his trouble...Ol Oliver doesnt seem to put much stock in our warnings...almost as if...he doesnt care!!!!! We will of course continue to work with "His worship" till he at least shows some semblance of "caring"!!!!
YUK, cold hot tea, is nasty...Cold, cold tea is good...hot cold tea is...not so good, but hot tea cold is just horrible, like hot coffee cold is...
Havent taken the boys out on patrol in the last couple of days, much to their dismay...If I feel up to it, maybe to morrow. gonna try to go to church...I like weaing my new sunday go to meetin hearing aids...feels like I'm being productive...
Hey Rich, hows Liz paw???? Hows her Maw???? You know I had to say it didnt you...seriously, her widdle tootsie doing better...how many treats and biscuits does it take for good healing????
Lloyd, what a bummer, leaving your camera at home...buy two cameras, or however many house holds you visit, and leave one at each home...voila, you neednt worry about forgetting your camera again...the digital point and shoots are very inexpensive...well, opposed to say a Canon T2 etc...I use to be a better than average, nay, a very good photographer, during the SLR Film days. I have about 6 Nikons, with all the bells and whistles and lens...who'ld a thunk it that they would all become obsolete! Took em all to Camera Exchange, along with aluminum cases and extra lenses an a zillion filters, just to see what they would give me for them...240.00dollars.
I knew it wasnt going to be a lot, but that wasnt even worth going in there for...So, what do I do with all this obsolete camera equipment???? I hate just giving it away, or throwing it away...hmmm...
I will probably buy the new Canon T2 system...seems to be among the best in digital photo gear...My major problem is not being able to see...well, that would seem to be one of the attributes one should possess whilst taking pictures, wouldnt you think????
I dont want to get something so sophisticated and complicated, that you need a degree just to operate it...I dont know, still thinking about it. Might go with one of the lesser Canons, not a point and shoot, but not the Starship Enterprise either...
Ok, I've bored you out of your minds, to be sure. but at 2 am, what cha gonna do...

this is a picture of my grandson Taylor when he was about 4. He was ring bearer at my Nephews wedding...I took the wedding pictures, and they turned out most excellent. I've done a few weddings, but generally turned most jobs down... too much can go wrong...and generally does. With the new digital technology, it takes a lot of the guess work and wrong things out of the equation...My grandson still has that smile...
Chat at ya later...ol duke of earl hisownself, me
