Good morning! Room’s all packed and stuff loaded into the van. Waiting for Ken to shower, then check us out and we head to Wheatland for the next two days. Then we’re home from Sunday night until early Wednesday morning, when we head for Denver and the Rocky Mountain Conference from the 18-21. That’s our last major traveling until Grand Lodge in August.

Yesterday was July 11th. Our Grand Lodge starts on August 11th. One month from today, at 4:00pm, we are officially done. I remember that for about 2 years before his Grand Master year, I was trying to tell you all about the traveling and responsibilities we’d have. Typing it out and actually living it, I have learned, are two entirely different things! This has been a year I’d never ever do over again, but at the same time it’s one I wouldn’t have wanted to miss! We’re both exhausted, but it’s the kind of exhaustion that comes from accomplishing - and even exceeding - every goal that had been set. Ken is an amazing man, and I realize completely how blessed I am to be his Lady. I’m so proud of him.

I’ve read everything, but now can’t remember all of it to comment. Just bits and pieces, and on my phone it’s hard to maneuver back and forth. But I’ll try.

Deb, 70 pounds!!! Man, I thought I had reason to be proud of myself!! Sorry you had such a scary episode. Keep hydrated!

DMC, if I remember right the doctors were hoping to save at least some of the muscles, so to save all but one seems like a true miracle! Recovery won’t be easy, but he’s got to be feeling a little encouraged now. How’s the vision in his other eye coming along?

Sharron, they still don’t know what’s going on? I don’t know about you, but I always find it easier to fight when I have the name of my opponent and the rules for the fight. Kinda sounds like they just grabbed a name out of the “miscellaneous” chapter of the medical textbooks. Doggone it! So sorry about Wilbur, too!

Sean, Sean, Sean.....what are we going to do with you to get you to make some serious concessions for your injuries to fully heal. Rent a scooter, for crying out loud! And I have a perfectly good wheelchair in my garage that isn’t busy at the moment -

Hey, Debby ~ for the first time my year’s short timer calendar is shorter than yours! This is Wyoming, though - does anyone really expect 7 more weeks of golf weather?

It’s clouding up here big time. Almost time for the weekly major hailstorm and I don’t want to be in it. I’ve always wondered....so many products that we use every day came from inventions made for space travel. Velcro, pens that can write upside down, pouches of applesauce for kids....wouldn’t you think someone could find a way to put the same kind of glass in car windows that they use on the space shuttles? That stuff can withstand meteor and space junk hits at thousands of miles per hour. Car windshields can’t handle being hit by a soybean at 65.

What are you going to do with all your time when your done traveling Blooie?
The doctors saved all his muscles. Only one was damaged and they were able to repair that one. He seems to be doing ok. He goes back on Monday for a check up. His mom keeps asking him if he’s doing ok and she asked him if that bothered him. He said I’d rather you ask a million times and drive me crazy then not ask at all. His dad came to see him yesterday for the first time since it happened.

Went to the Dieticians office and almost passed out after the weigh in.

well that isn't the way it is supposed to work! I hope you are better now.

So now its 8 pm Son came home early from his date very upset.... she didnt show.

That sucks, I hope she had a good reason.

bi-autopsy

I"m pretty sure you meant biopsy, don't know what they do in pairs to check out dead people.

i lost wilbur, not ready to talk about that but husband bought a little sow and boar, kune-kunes, nice little pigs and i scratch them once in awhile but they're not wilbur

Only a month to go!! I wonder how long it will take for you to get tired of being home all the time.

Getting ready to go to sleep, got to work tonight.

Take it easy (as much as you can) Sean!

Just one more month B, then you can be a lady of leisure (ha!). It's been a special year for you & Ken, I'm sure you have a boat load of good memories to look back on.

And just to clarify the 7 week comment I made this morning...that's for the closing of the restaurant. The golf course itself will be open until Oct. 15. And yep, there will be golfers (unless they are busy hunting or going to football games).

When @Blooie is done with the Masonic duties, she can come help at the restaurant! We don't want her to get bored.

I'd jump at the opportunity to have her help, but something tells me B will be happy just to be home for a while

 

[bruceha2000]

Her home, your home, close enough. She probably doesn't recognize her own home anymore anyway

 

[drumstick diva]

Yeah, tell us about Sean. I was going to suggest a scooter too but, he ignores anything I say. At least he won't cut you out of his will.

Good morning everyone, hope you all have a great Saturday!
