Waiting for my new license to come in. My 21st was tuesday. coincidentally I was on a trip from Monday to Thursday and my license expired ON TUESDAY, so before we left Monday I had to renew my license. Can't wait, I need a bottle of rum like you read about.
rain? RAIN?!?! Not out here in the valley :mrgreen: Though it WAS a little wet when I was out near paxton the othe night. :laughing: <3 my Pilot Roads.
Har har. Spencer just seems to be wet constantly, with the exception of today. And I'm in no condition to ride because I got struck by insomnia last night and today I'm just kind of dragging.

Lucky you, though.

Spent the morning and afternoon reclaiming the jungle that has appeard behind my house.
Went to see Mamma Mia in the evening with some friends from the bike club - and enjoyed it! Much to my surprise. (But then, I do have a thing about Meryl Streep).

Went on from Mamma Mia to a Chinese restaurant for supper.

Didn't get hitched at any point in the day.

I almost missed that Nalian! Such a trivial bit of news!!!!

Wow! Congratulations!

Best wishes to you both.

I also saw Mamma Mia this evening. After that we went walking in the woods for short time before we went for dinner. Westcoast cuisine.

I loved the movie. It was so much fun...I felt like clapping.

After five days in the hospital with my wife. I am so exhausted emotionally and physically.

Fluid had been building up around her lung and it partially collapsed. Drained fluid and it re expanded but her oxygen saturation is still low. So she has to stay on oxygen at home. I don't know whether to be happy or depressed. I think maybe its possible to be both.
Jeez, that's rough fire, hope thing get better soon. My best to you and your missus

Hi FG

Completely missed your post earlier.

I'm really sorry to hear you have been going through such a difficult time. It sounds like it came on suddenly - it must have been a huge shock.

I hope you wife is continuing to recover at home and life is beginning to settle down again.

Best wishes to you both.

Richard

Thanks for the well wishes guys. All positive thoughts are appreciated.

sv- It was a shock and the whole lung issue was unexpected. But maybe it shouldn't have been.

She was basically born with lymphademia.(lymphangiomatosis if you really want to know) She was on a strict diet and meds to keep the fluid from building up as a child. As a teen she took it upon herself to stop taking meds. She had a pretty good ten year or more run without them. But it caught up with her. And we/she/doctors should have known better. But now that we have all had this experience we are going to work harder at keeping her healthy. And she is willing to take better care of herself now too. She is not a rebellious teen anymore. Thanks again for the well wishes. You too Blues. :)
