Yes, thank you. Had an excellent trip. Didn't get pi$$ed off until we gots home. ;-)

Apparently the hot water went out on Thursday but they didn't bother to tell us until yesterday. I coulda already had it replaced. As it is my neighbor came over and reset it, so we should be good for a day or two 'til we can get a new one. He'll help me install it since I R Ignorant about such things.

Wife and I hadn't been home 12 hours afore we wanted to go away again (and that included sleepin' and church). But Nana's surgery is Tuesday and we're sendin' the sister home for a sabbatical...for us. Nana will be in the hospital and rehab for about 5-6 weeks.

Waitin' now to see if the water heats up. If it don't I'm gonna go to the gym and work out so I can get a shower before the Super Bowl. Otherwise I'll just go in the a.m. since I'm going back on the nazi diet tomorrow.

Glad the trip was good anyhow.

Sorry, I slipped off for my Sunday afternoon nap there.

I dunno why but forever at my old house I had a hot water heater that was my nemesis. Seemed like every year about the 2nd or 3rd real cold spell the thermocouple went out. I got kinda good at replacing them but when I married Dennis, the 2nd time it went out he looked at me like I was nuts for replacing it again and went and bought another heater. :-)

That was kinda nice never coming home to NO hot water again after that. :-)

Corin; thank you for the kind words.

Prayers for Nana's Surgery on Tuesday.
Sabbaticals are a good idea most anytime.

Well...on the bright side, there aren't TOO many more things that could possibly need replacing any time soon, right?

Welcome back!

To: Corin Stormhands; All
I'll put Nana on our Parish Prayer list for a successful surgery and rehab.

I've got a prayer request for y'all, too. My cousin's wife died this morning after a LONG battle with cancer. Seems like she's been fighting it for over 5 years. Please keep her husband and kids in your prayers. All their kids are grown and gone from home, so Harvey will be on his own. He's a cool guy; was a one star general in the 3rd Armored Division during Desert Storm , then became some high muckety-muck in the Army in Germany a few years after that. When x42 and Her Heinous came to Berlin in the mid 90's, Harvey and Donna had to squire them around. They HATED it!

Also, if you'd keep in your prayers my big brother, Mike, who's having heart bypass surgery sometime this week. He was supposed to have it tomorrow, but his blood was too thin, so they delayed it to later in the week. I know they have stuff to thin the blood, cause I've been on it, but what do they have that can thicken it?
