Well here it is Wednesday and I go to the doctor today to see if I have to have the surgery on my arm. I really hope not, but if I do, I want to get it over with. It is somewhat windy and cool here this morning with rain forecast for off and on today.

Been beautiful weather wise the last couple of days. I really wish I had a Cobra in weather like this. I fire up the Mustang and instantly imagine I was in a Cobra. Even though it is a little chilly in the AM, I would still be driving it to work every day.

Joe,

Take the top off the Mustang, change the front end a little, and then pretend you are driving your Cobra.

Ron

Joe Wicked · #**12184** (**permalink**) 03-31-2010, 11:53 AM

LOL Ron. I just am craving a Cobra in this good weather. Getting closer to mine each day that passes.

Ron61 · #**12185** (**permalink**) 03-31-2010, 12:00 PM

Joe,

You will soon have your Cobra. I sure miss mine. But the way things are going now I am not sure I could drive it much. I just got home from the doctor and that place in my arm is infected and I have to take antibiotics for a week and he is going to cut it out on the 14th. Next week on the 6th I have to go to my eye doctor so this next month is going to be a doctor every week. Not only expensive but depressing.

Well here it is Thursday and we have scattered clouds forecast for today, scattered rain for tomorrow, and then partly sunny for Saturday. But all of this comes with a light, cold wind.

Don't forget this is April Fool's Day.

Well tomorrow is Easter and it is supposed to rain here. Yesterday was a really nasty day with cold wind, and really hard rain for most of the afternoon, then it cleared off but stayed cold. Today is supposed to be partly cloudy with a high of 51°, and then rain tomorrow and Monday.

Anyway all of you have a great and safe Easter. The one day of the year that Rabbits can admit they are actually chickens in disguise and lay eggs.

HAPPY EASTER TO ALL OF YOU!!!

Have a great and fun day. Hope your weather is better than ours.It is cold and raining lightly here.

Monday again. Tru are you still lurking around. I go read your Blog every day but don't see you posting much.

Tomorrow I go to the eye doctor and next week for the arm surgery. The following week is a follow up on the arm and take the dogs to the vets for their shots and teeth cleaning, which actually costs more than mine. Guess because I have less teeth. Not a very pleasant looking April for me so far.

I hope that you all had a great Easter. It was really cold, windy, and rained most of the day here. The weather can't decide what to do. One day it will be in the 80s and the next in the 50s. Low last night was 38.

Well I went to my eye doctor Monday and I have to have cataract surgery on both eyes. Next week is surgery on my arm and this Friday I go to the eye surgeon to find out when he is going to do my eyes. I am going to be happy when April is over as I have at least two doctors appointments every week. And of course the follow up on the arm surgery.

HEY.

Figured I'd drop by and say hi.

This is a very busy time for a car maker. I have 11 projects going on that need attention for the month of April.

trularin · #**12192** (**permalink**) 04-07-2010, 08:06 AM

Ron, we are changing your name to Monster. You are the CC monster poster!!!

Yes, I am still alive, but I am tired and over worked.

This will pass in time.

Good morning everyone

I hope everyone is doing OK.

Ron,
I have had lasik and it was a breeze. Before I could not see the floor while sitting and after the surgery I could see clearly across the room.

I'll keep ya in my prayers for your pending medical ventures.

Nice weather we are having here. It is a little windy but who's complaining, it is really nice. Good to see blue skies again.

Ron61 · #**12194** (**permalink**) 04-07-2010, 10:08 AM

Thanks Steve. Our weather is in the low 70s during the day and as low as 38 at night. Right now there is a pretty hard wind blowing or I would be out doing yard work. I would like to get it done before all of the surgery. Mowing is no problem but the weed eating and especially on the banks will be after the arm surgery and until it heals.

Ron

trularin · #**12195** (**permalink**) 04-08-2010, 11:38 AM

Ron, I think there should be some type of award when you hit 20k.

Third day of rain here. Very wet.

Ron61 · #**12196** (**permalink**) 04-08-2010, 12:42 PM

Tru,

I couldn't agree more. But if this clears up my sight it will be worth every penny of it.

Ron

trularin · #**12197** (**permalink**) 04-09-2010, 06:01 AM

Oh heck yeah. I wouldn't think twice. Here they install contacts in the eye and fix everything at the same time. It is like $1000 for both eyes. They also will put in colored lenes to change your eye color.

Why, I can not tell you. That is vanity at it's finest.

Well, give us the scoop when your 20/20 is fixed.

Ron61 · #**12198** (**permalink**) 04-09-2010, 06:13 AM

Tru,

Maybe I had better come there to have it done. Here they told me $ 3,500 per eye and then the cost of the new glasses. I go in this afternoon and will find out all of the details about when they will do it. Hope soon as I have that arm surgery next week. And they will only do one eye at a time from what people tell me. But I will know for sure this evening.

Ron

Ron61 · #**12199** (**permalink**) 04-11-2010, 06:22 AM

Ok, it is Sunday and we are supposed to have rain today. It is overcast and feels damp, but until it starts falling I won't get my hopes up.

This week is gong to be a busy one for me as will the next 10 or 12 weeks. Wednesday the 14th I have to have the arm surgery. Then the 21st in to the eye hospital for the final exams, paper work, and I will get the date for the first eye surgery. Actually I am looking forward to having that done as this having everything look gray and a tad bit fuzzy at times is getting kind of tiring. The only bad thing is they said 4 to 6 weeks between eyes and I can't bend over, or do any work that may cause me to sweat where it would get in my eyes so I will have to let the lawns go for a time. With our Summers in the 110+ range it is hard to even walk around and not sweat.

They have this guy here Dr. Rahmanie ( spelling ). He does the sports guys and everyone else. Even the Canadians come across the creek to get their eyes done.

I think they said it was $1000 for both eyes, but you should call before you do any travel.

Do you want me to find the number??
