I got alot done outside even if it was threatening rain, and it is raining now. Weeded the peas, beans and cukes and added compost and then staked them. Finished the front of the re-figured chicken coop and cleaned out the chicken run. Took a loooonnnnngggggg nap. Felt good.

Been rubbing Vicks on the chest and putting a heat pad on top of it to really push it in. Yesterday and today are the first time I have been able to breath deep or normal since May 9th. Hmmm. . . . something to be said about Grandmas old time fixes.

Let the new ones - they are getting quite large - free-range for the first time today. They LOVED that of course.

I have been encourage to get a video of DH and Tom Hanks. They have found ways to avoid each other so I don't know if that will happen now.

I could tell on the radar we were on the edge of it, I did not know it was that much of an edge!

I can see your confusion at the term Fufu's now.

Coffee that is good is not Fufu. Fufu coffee would be flavored coffee. Some strange nut or spicy flavored additive that takes away from Pure coffee taste. My wife likes Fufu coffee. I do not. I like real coffee real dark black and hot like God meant for it to be drank. True coffee strengthens the bladder by forcing you to exercise holding back on natures urges. The real coffee you drink the stronger the bladder gets.

I have thought about being one with the coffee but this is a drastic move that requires more dedication than I have at this point in my life. It requires a willingness to have a catheter installed and not having to move more than a foot or two from the Keurig. A Bund will do in a pinch. Many Dr's. mine included to not understand the healthful benefits of real coffee. Some eve go so far as recommending one stop drinking real coffee and go to decaf or tea...I think they are quacks..... Quacks being a term from the garden of Eden days in the book of Genesis

It is a term meaning "evil one" in ancient Hebrew.. It refers to the time in the Garden of Eden when a waterfowl tricked a serpent into doing his bidding and getting Eve to take a bite of the apple. Since that time the words snake, duck, goose and waterfowl have come to mean low life smelly evil creatures..... Hence a "quack" is a dr without your best interest at heart. Never trust a Dr that does not recognize the benefits of coffee........




I hope your day at the Hospital goes well. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers. And anytime you need to have a term like Fufu defined properly do not hesitate to ask, I am more than happy to help on these rainy duck days.

No worries here, big guy. I always know if I need me some lernin' who I can call on.

Thanks, I do appreciate you thinking of us. It has been a heck of a last year for us. It is nice to have an explanation for things that were happening, but not so fun trying to help him get where he needs to be going now. He doesn't want to be a momma's boy, which I have to be kind of proud about.

Here I thought you were going to say something like "never trust a Dr. who doesn't keep a flock of something in his back yard."
