Snowing...still

 Well, you might as well find something to do because the snow ain't going away and neither is winter.

Kinda hard to photo yourself sno-shoeing but what the hell, you get the idea.

The snow as deep and Clint plowed in front of me and made a path, it was pretty funny and he loved prodding thru the snow.  But later, he would inform me he was hungry and we needed to go inside.  

Once inside I fixed him some breakfast, he ate two bites and that was it -- now I knew he was sick, this kid is constantly hungry and rarely does he ever want to come inside.  We would get a nap in later for sure.

Oh ya, after the ground hog saw his shadow and it was announced six more weeks of winter (like this shit means anything, its six weeks regardless), we all were ready to kill that sucker.  What is really bad is the temperatures.  It has been brutally cold and that even stops many from skiing or doing much outside. Hey,who in hell wants to play in minus 27 degrees and fight wind chills that hit -35...not this puppy.  Needless to say, ski resorts are suffering this year, they got snow, plenty of that, but nobody can handle these damn cold temps.

I send this to the Minnesota folks, as they are having a horribly cold winter too.  Well,shit, who isn't this year.  Even the southern states are suffering and I mean suffering.  Ice, no power, no idea how to clear the roads and many places are closed and stores are empty of food items everyone wants, its really something.

So, I go back to the urologist on Monday and we'll see if these damn stones have finally departed my body.  Sadly he didn't do the uretroscopy bit or remove the stent on Feb 3rd but we did blast again.  Said the stones, particles of them at least are now in the urethra, lovely.  Now, if the next KUB shows them still there, definitely doing the other number.  Oh hell, put me out, go up and get these suckers and remove that goddamn stent, I am really sick of this number.

And yes, damnit, it is snowing today too.  However its 30 degrees and I may just don my sno-shoes and go for a short hike.  It's a great workout and it really is nice to get outside.  Breath in that fresh air and what have ya.

Hope all who are reading these blogs is safe, happy, healthy and warm.

Super-boring--bowl

 So you waited all day for the Superbowl and you fixed all sorts of eats too, right?  Your team wasn't playing but you decided Denver had this in the bad and altho the Seattle Sea hawks had come a long way, great team and all, they could not beat Denver, no way, right?

Don't you feel like an ass right now?  The very first time Denver has the ball, they screw up, Seattle has a touch back and Denver never really recovers --Peyton was so shocked by the toss from his center, he just could not believe his own eyes.

Then he gets intercepted a couple times and holy crap, it just kept getting worse.  I was in bed with my book before half -way, bored out of my mind.  Hubby would walk back and up date me on the score and we both realized, this was a no brainier, Seattle had this in the bag.

Like I said, my team wasn't playing but I was pulling for Denver as my nephew is a huge Bronoc fan and he truly hoped to see them win.  

So football over and now what?  I don't think the fun tennis matches start until later in Feb but I can wait.  There is always repeats and while some are boring as hell, others are worth a second or third watch.

Today I go in for my 3rd blast treatment...holy shit, must be a damn gravel pit in there. My urologist told me; "First off, this was a very big stone and you are doing nicely. Secondly, I have a three strike out rule, this will be your third strike.  However, this time I will blast, remove the stent, use a uretroscope and go up there and remove any particles with a laser beam (or perhaps he said basket).  At this point I didn't give a shit, I'll be out and I want that damn stent gone.  It's beginning to cause a burning sensation when I pee and well, its been in there since Nov, so its time to go.

Now I think this is a damn clever idea.  I use to keep my coat and hat by the door, if someone showed up and I didn't care to hang around with them, I'd tell them I was sorry, I was just on my way out and I'd proceed to my car and say, call me later.  Ya, I'm bad.

So how is your Monday going? Anybody reading this blog?  I'm so ready for winter to end.  We are being advised another storm will hit us by Wednesday, which will include more snow and back to the frigid temperatures.  This shit is really getting old.

Keep warm folks and have a good one.
