I can not believe we are out of NY and headed to Kasidah.
This summer was filled with so much that it will not be able to be covered in
one post here. Facebook has been a little easier to let people know what is
going on, but not in the detail that I know some of you like and I like to
write about. Most of you that read this will all know the highs and the lows of
the summer.
The highs include but are not limited to; 1st
grandson Cal arrived and we were there, both kids are doing extremely well in
their careers and lives, another good year for Jae Bee Electric, especially our
new marine
division, our good health, summer home fun, no huge vehicle expenses,
traveled and explored a bit, tennis was good, we had the largest number of
visitors to the summer home we've ever had, the weather had been fairly good.
Our fifth wheel summer home worked out great, my old Dodge work van got us
through another season with just minor repairs. Great rides along some beautiful
roads on the motorcycle.
A great visit in Connecticut with a family gathering and what a great time we had,...nobody knows how to laugh like the Libby's. Not all are present in this photo and it's not a good photo of anybody but if you look at the faces and body language you know we were having a good laugh. Now, when you see Arline or I, remember to ask what we were laughing at and I promise you'll laugh with us. Thanks Christopher,..
The lows include but are not limited to; losing a few good
friends and others in the fight for their life, Jill’s Audi was totaled in a
simple rear end accident, my fears continue to grow that our country and our
freedoms are in more trouble than they've ever been and we are again just one
generation away from losing it all, I wasted 6 weeks or 1/5th of my
time in NY to earn money because of grand jury duty, I won’t brag about how much it cost me to serve, and they
don’t care.
Our many visits to the doctors for blood test, scans and
full body skin check ended with pretty good results. I still have high blood
pressure, boarder line high cholesterol and diverticulitis or something that
sounds worst that what it is, my aches and pains have more to do with getting
older and I need to watch what I eat a little better, we've all heard that.
Arline’s test results at first looked like she might have
some major issues but in the end it ended up very good. They found she has
Mitral Valve Prolapse which will be monitored, they removed several moles and
one ended up being cancerous. They performed Mohs surgery removing all the bad
tissue, after that, seventeen sutures and all is good till next May. This is a
result of loving the sun as a teen and using baby oil to get the perfect tan.
All she can say is 50 plus sunscreen if you like the outdoors.
