I'm glad that everything worked out for her. Good luck with the "trying" Joe, my daughter is the greatest gift in the world.

Thanks Jim and Jay. Another 3 weeks and her dental will be all done, then depending on how her ... nevermind. I'll just say that with the "doctor's orders", it's been a while.

Good luck "trying"!! Just relax and it will happen, if you stress it will take what seems to be forever.

Yep. We know all about that.

We did get pregnant in September, but we lost it in December. Just after the 3 month waiting period, after we told everybody.

Then, she had a gall bladder attack in October, which caused pancreatitis. With the 3 months off as ordered by the doc, we figured now is the time to get all the medical and dental stuff taken care of. And why I was in a rush to get my back fixed and a get a new bed.

So the countdown is on.

I will. I think I didnt get it directly so it should be fine.

There is a huge difference between you and Chase, you are a grown up and not some lazy kid who thinks it's okay to watch me do everything around the house while he watches movies on the computer. I am sure you and I would have a lot of fun if you came out for a while. It would be perfect, Troy works night so you can just stay in my room with me.



I agree with this sometimes.... I liked taking a pain pill when I was going to sleep after knee surgery and after having the girls, just made it to where I could sleep better for the first few days.
I would hope his shorts are longer than yours these days!

Nice...definitely gotta take pics for us!

I had to take pain pills. I was ordered to start rehab 6 days after my ankle/leg/knee surgery. No way I couldve done that without the pills...

Hopefully things will have a totally different outcome this time!!

I have to laugh at your new bed and count down comment though, sounds like you are doing okay with it!

Pain pills were a must for Troy also, I used to tease him that I was going to put him into drug rehab once he got done with PT. lol. He started PT 2 days after surgery, that was really hard to watch.

Ok. So I forgot to tell you guys before.

On Saturday I was working with dad. I was pushing up some ground wood onto a pile with the loader. I was backing up and while I was looking over my shoulder I saw a white SuperDuty with a pickup box on it pull in to our yard doing probably 15mph and then stop and jam it into reverse doing 15mph back out again. Driveway's only maybe 200 feet long if that. I don't know anyone with a white SuperDuty with pickup box so I'm thinking WTF at this point. I keep working and make a mental note about it. Then as I turn my head to back up I glanced at the road and saw the same white SuperDuty sitting on the side of the road not moving at all. So dad came over to get the dozer which was near me. I asked him "WTF?" Who has a truck like that? It's been sittin there watchin me.

So dad says it's probably the repo man looking for some of my uncle's (We don't talk to him anymore. It's a big family clusterf**k) equipment. He was looking for two dozers and a horizontal grinder. We have 2 tub grinders and similiar, but different dozers. I tell dad "How much you wanna bet that a**hole will be back looking around?" So we get in the truck to bring some steel for a nail collector on the grinder. As we're pulling around to the shop sure enough we see an East Haven PD cruiser sitting there with that white SuperDuty. So I pull in to our driveway and there the little f**k of a repo peckerhead is walking around like he owns the place. I pull the truck in front of him and block the driveway. The guy starts walking towards the truck. I roll my window down and check to make sure my door is locked. Dad asks "WTF? Get off my property you have no right to be here."

Guy is trying to be a harda** "Well I have every right to be here I have an officer blablabla"

So dad and I get out of the truck. The cop had pulled his car in behind the truck at this point. So the repo jerk is standing next to the cop. He says "I have to go check the serial numbers on those machines" Dad tells him like hell he will.

Dad tells the repo man what he is looking for. Repo man says that's what he's looking for.

At this point I but in and tell him "Those are WHO tub grinders not Maxigrind and that is a TD25G and a TD7H."

So the guy says "Well one of the machines I'm looking for is a TD25 blablabla"

So dad ends up telling the jerk where to find the stuff he's looking for and that he can go check the s/n on the dozer.

Repo man now decides he doesn't need to see the dozer s/n. Dad tells him "Go check it. You've got 30 minutes and then I never want to see your face around here again you a**hole."

So little repo man gets into his truck and tries to drive around to the other driveway. Unfortunately for him he parked half on the lawn of the old farmhouse. He spun his tires for probably 20 seconds before he was able to get moving. Screw that guy. If he got stuck we woulda laughed at him while he was waiting for a tow truck cause we sure weren't gonna pull him out. I'm tempted to send him a bill for a 50lb bag of grass seed plus the labor to rake out and reseed his ruts.

We went by the place one of the machines he was looking for was on Monday and it wasn't even gone yet.

Freakin a**hole repo man...

Did I mention this guy had more grease in his hair than the machines he was looking for had in all their pins and bushings combined?

Sorry for writing a book, everyone. Just thought I'd share.
