Hoping for another win tonight. Maybe the slump is over?

More interested in the Spurs game tonight. It would be so cool if they swept OKC.

We're still in Nashville. Saw Dr. Kelly this am and he said that the swelling in her temple is nothing to worry about, just muscle, but is concerned about a small indentation where the plates should have fused. He wants 3D scans. Fortunately we can get those done in Knoxville which is a lot closer. Tomorrow we are going to the Nashville zoo. I promise to post pics when we get back.

Don't you have the option of Verizon FIOS there, banadude?

i have a straight talk phone. I think it uses verizon towers but not sure. In my neck of the woods we all have well water and direct tv or dish. No cable or high speed. I am deep in the country

The first part is excellent news. Best of luck on the second.

Quote: ditto here too except we do have DSL that is not that highspeed but we have the promise of expanded fiber capacity maybe this year. Reason we have it at all is because a big copper mine was supposed to go in a few miles from us like 10 years ago and they ran the lines as part of the mine deal. Well, the copper market tanked (along with the stocks) and the mine was scrapped but we still got the phone lines. Only now, the lines are at capacity which is bogging everything down. Crazy because we are still so out in the middle of nowhere that cell service is non-existent within miles of the house and spotty when you do get a signal. If you are on the road and get a signal, depending on which direction you are headed, you better talk fast!

Thank you for the prayers. Maddy is the only one who enjoys these trips to the doctor. Not even shots scare her. And that child cleaned up on stickers. I have 3 new ones on my laptop now and Maddy is in the tub making water balloons out of blue surgical gloves. So far the water is staying in the tub. Watching the Spurs and eating Papa Johns Hawaiian BBQ chicken pizza.

We use good old fashioned Filipino repurposing for our fences

(not my photo but you get the idea)

This looks like alot of compound walls I seen and lived in when I was in Thailand back in the early 70's.
