Goodmorning Gerry, Pat, & everyone else, 
It's the middle of the week, so let's get to humpin'!
Have a awesome Wednesday guys & gals.
Today, I'm expecting a guy to come over & test drive our 98 Plymouth Neon & possibly trade his 92 Ninja 600d for it! He should be here around noon.
I'll let you know if I get it & post pictures.
TTYL...

Happy humpy day Nevada! Spent most of the day at the doctor's office, then the ER. Ended up walking out of the ER after 3 hours of waiting. I am still alive so it must not have been too serious. LOL. The doctor's appointment was a follow up for the knee injury, and my right leg from the knee down is swollen up. They suspect a blod clot, and sent me to ER to have an ultra sound, but ER was way too crowded, and after 3 hours of waiting, and hearing the nurse say it will be an additional 2 hours, I decided to leave.
I will be at the VA hospital tomorrow, I will see if they can do an ultra sound while I am there.
Donna, Christmas in August! I love it! Two new for you boats, and now possibly a Ninja bike? Santa does work in the off season!

Welcome to FTE Tom, once Donna sees your post, I am sure she will make you a member.
Dave, I am going to the VA today to have them check me out. I doubt they will be as crowded as the civilian hospital was. I know blood clots can kill. I had one right after my accident in 2010. They sent me home from the hospital, even though I told them I had nobody there to care for me. Ended up sitting in my recliner for 8 days straight. Finally had to call 911 to take me to the hospital, and they found a blood clot in my right thigh. They kept me in the hospital for 3 days, then sent me to the transitional center where I stayed for 5+ months. The doctor yesterday wanted to know why I was taken off warfarin (the blood thinner they had me on) and I told him the prescription ran out, and it was not renewed. That is when he tried to get an ultrasound done, but the nurse told hm my insurance will take 5-0 days to approve it. So he told me to go to the ER and have them do it. You know the rest.
I'll keep everyone posted when I get back today.

Jim, That makes me feel better and worry less.... sorry that you know the problem, but damn glad you know how to deal with it !!! The second time I had to deal with it, they installed a "greenfield" (I think that's the name) filter before my heart and renewed my warfrin script... good news , no filter changes required LOL !!! Keep us posted good luck
As for everybody else HAPPY Friday eve !!! Weather guru's say the weather is going to cool off a bit from 108* down to 103* ... but that comes with 2 days of T-storm warnings 
so c'mon fall !!! Hope Y'all have a safe and wonderful Thursday ... gettin ready for the weekend !!!

Interesting that you should mention the filter. The doctor asked me if anyone had installed a filter in me, and I told them no. Only other surgery I had besides the tibia problem was my gall bladder being removed while I was in the transitional center. I cannot believe how one little gall bladder could cause so much intense chest pain.
Anyway, leaving soon for the VA hospital.

Goodmorning everyone,
I hope you have a Great Thursday!
Well, the guy with the Ninja wasn't able to make it that day, however we're supposed to meet him in Virginia City on Sunday. So, I guess we'll see if he shows to do the trade?!
Jim - Hope your feeling better soon.

Hope the guy with the Ninja is not getting cold feet. However, we all know that life is what happens when we are busy making other plans.
Good news with the ultrasound. No clots! they wanted me to do a CT scan but I did not have time for that, so I will follow up with my Primary care doctor about that. I am just grateful they found no clots.
