USMB Coffee Shop IV

[Montrovant]

I went to the ER from work tonight. I'd had a few episodes of pretty severe abdominal pain, and some blood in my urine. I have a kidney stone, yay me! I have prescriptions to pick up for it, which I plan to do after my appointment at the dentist tomorrow for my next crown. Oh, and I also chipped a tooth at work on Monday. I guess 45 is my age to start really feeling my age.

Oh my. So sorry Montro. Hope the episode is short lived. The chipped tooth should be covered by work comp though.

The chipped tooth is not an issue apparently. I did it eating lunch, not sure why work comp would cover it.

Well yeah. If you employer did not furnish the lunch, you probably aren't covered. If your employer did furnish lunch, however, as part of your compensation, then you are. (I've had an extremely eclectic working career including being a work comp adjuster for awhile.)

Nope, my own lunch. Also, I'm pretty sure I chipped a bottom tooth with a top tooth.

Apparently these inflatable trousers are becoming quite the conversation in the fashion world. Now honestly, would you wear these????

Only in a crowd...…..'hey, get out of my way'!!



would be better if they were of normal size, with a hidden string or button to blow them up 'as needed' 'oops, excuuuuuuse me'

I’m in a “Wetherspoon” Chain pub just chilling, free wi fi, 600 yards from my hotel, it’s quiet. Just chatted to the pub manager about the ale, he has 8 guest ales, apparently I chose his favourite and I’m now on my second pint of it.
It’s a dark ale, it’s very good from now on I’ll only order it every time.
There are a few young people here, it’s a no frills boozer, no TVs no music, just cheap bar food and of course ale. This ale cost £1.99

Was thinking of you. Watched Vietnam the Soldier's Story, Ambush at La Drang.

Looks like Mr. P is finally getting better and stronger each day.
These last 2 weeks was hard on him, as well as me.
He could only get short naps during the day and only an hour or two during the whole night.
He had to sleep in a tripod position while I stayed up most of the nights, catching him from slowly rolling off of chair toward and onto the floor.
As of yesterday he has not needed any oxygen! Yeah! We are seeing progress.
We both have gotten good sleep for a couple of nights now.
Poor Mr. P was in a real battle for his life this past 4 weeks, but like he always has done he gets through it.
The man has a phenomenal will to live is all I can say.

Dr Hossfly prescribes one (1) La-Z-Boy recliner for Mr.P.

He does have one.
The problem was he could not recline in it.
He had to sleep sitting up.
I got one of those adjustable foam wedges for the bed. He keeps trying it and thinks by Friday or Sat. he will be able to lay back by then and start sleeping in the bed again.
He still is coughing up fluid but is getting better.

I'm glad things are looking up Peach .. they opened up my ribs and drained my chest cavity for 5 days before I could leave, so I can't quite relate.

I'm sorry it's still tough on the both of you All the best and prayers Peach..
.

Yes I'm certain you can relate, thank you.

Poor Mr. P Is not only fighting CHF and is deprived of sleep, but his MS and type 2 diabetes.
He has lost 20 pounds since his surgery but this put him to the weight that he wanted so he is very happy about that.
They took him off of his diabetic med he had been taken for years.
The new combo of drugs he is on will eventually even his sugar levels out but right now I'm managing by diet which is new to both of us.

We saw his heart Doc. Tue. and he said that he is doing good.
The goal is to try and get more of his heart working from 24% to 30% working capacity.
This afternoon we have an appt. to go to his vein surgeon and well see what he says today also.
Then Mon. he goes to see the guy that does his pacemaker , defib. to make sure it is working properly.

I've had a few stints and arterial surgeries and get regular (6 mo.) arterial ultrasounds and such. I feel pretty good actually and try to stick with a positive attitude about it all.

Hang in there Peach and keep up with the positives, prayers and sweet lovin ... Hugs..

I’m near Woking in Surrey, I started on a new contract yesterday, the hotel I’m staying at is 31 miles away, it was a trial by combat to get here this morning and last night to find a parking space for the company vehicle. That’s why they pay me well because I can endure, hardships are just part of the package for this type of work. 4-1/2 years to go that’s all.

Apparently these inflatable trousers are becoming quite the conversation in the fashion world. Now honestly, would you wear these????

Sorry about this..

I recall my brother in law getting a not so good vasectomy that looked similar to that...

Yup, I made a lot of ice runs that week..

He was a putz .. so I laugh..

Just finished watching HUNTERS on amazon. Took 4 or 5 episodes but it got me good. Great flick.

That was my first take too--some sort of grotesque abnormality.

I have it in the back of my mind that you have been here before Borillar and if so, welcome back. And if not welcome. (I didn't have your name on the Coffee Shop registry.) And if this is your first visit, first timers to the Coffee Shop receive a complimentary beverage. And since it is bedtime for most of us in this part of the world, I'll make it a delicious, soothing nightcap.

Prepare for, "Capitol City" from Hunger Games I guess. Oh, what a world...

I was wondering about that well.. All Hail Borillar and a hearty welcome indeed..

Yeah, my brothers elver bags were severely inflated from his vasectomy, that put me off ever having it done.
