Morning Allen! Just getting ready to drive over across the river to Iowa. We're doing our emergency siren test today, so I have to drive out and make sure the siren I'm assigned to works. Get paid extra for it also.

Have a great day Allen. Got a couple of hours before I have to leave for the VAMC in PDX.

It is a PITA, but a necessary PITA. Treatment 3 of 3, then have to put up with some bleeding and spasms tonight, but should be pretty well over with between 2100 and 2300 hrs. There will be some minor lingering effects through probably Friday. Oct. will be the scoped viewing session. When the scope shows, "sorry no one is at home", then I'm clear until next February when I have to repeat the 3 treatments, wait 6 weeks do a scope then repeat in 6 months.
Tomorrow I can start concentrating on getting everything ready for Diamond Lake next week.
Need to get out to the farm and do some chopping down around the duck pond, but I broke the tractor with the field chopper on it so that is going to have to wait.

Well, good luck with all of that. I'll be thinking of ya and saying a prayer or three.......
My buddy Robin across the street goes in for spine surgery on Sept 12. Sure hope they get it right this time, and he doesn't become a quadriplegic.......

Is he going to PDX VAMC for that?
My cousin had her back operated on (again) about 8 months ago. She is pretty much wheel chair bound but can get around a little with a walker or a cane. Anyway, after the surgery she spent a little time in the VAMC hospital, then they transferred her to a Vancouver Long Term Recovery and Therapy Unit. She was there for about 6 months, then they sent her home.

Good morning Oregon FTE gang and friends.
Been busy at work, actually working this morning to post up on FTE... I think that I need to check my priorities.
Office day for me today. I'm starting to develop quite a pile of projects on my desk and more keep rolling in.

Evening guys! Had a productive day here. Got the backhoe finished. Finished up installing the switches and relays, etc to the lathe and got the last gearbox and motor mounted on it. All that's left with it is to run the long conduit run to the power panel.
All in all, a great day!
