Draclvr; you need a vacation with hot sands & soft ocean waves & of course a margarita.

LOL! Judith, I'd just settle for a margarita right now! Ran a sample in to the doctor's office and of course, it's a UTI. They have called in a prescription for antibiotics to the pharmacy, so I will have to run in town again this afternoon.

Good Morning everyone! Wide Awake Double Dark Brew is ready!

Draclvr if hubby is on a strong antibiotic be sure he takes a probiotic to keep from getting a C-diff infection. There are certain antibiotics that can kill the good bacteria in the colon...especially in older adults...it happened to my hubby several years ago. I do hope your weather improves and you get some down time.

Wishing everyone a peaceful Wednesday!

Gerry

Good morning everyone!

Emergency use knäckebröd available in the break room.
The Draclvr hubby situation sounds challenging. Definitely a stronger cure than coffee is required here.
It's good to hear meds are prescribed and good care is given. I keep my fingers crossed for him.

Time flies, new year again. This time the year of the Snake in the ancient Chinese calendar.
Happy New Year, to those who celebrate.

Good morning, Danish, Donuts and Bagels in the Break Room. Music Bingo at the Eagles tonight. Enjoy the day and Hug someone.

Good Wednesday morning! Just popping in before we head in town for his post-op appointment with his surgeon. Just two doses of the Cipro and he's already feeling better.

Gerry, I'm quite familiar with C-diff and how utterly terrible it is! But Cipro is a quick and dirty 5-day course of antibiotics. He's done it several times before for other things. Did you know that for really severe cases which can't be resolved with pro-biotics etc., they have found that taking a "poop pill" to restore the microbiota in the colon is effective?!

Another day in the mid-50's so maybe another tenth of an inch of this ice will thaw!

Good morning everyone...looks like I'm following in Draclvr's footsteps as we head out the door for a vet appointment. Weather is wonderful today as we climb to the mid-60s. WADDB and a bagel to go please.

Have a wonderful Wednesday.

Good afternoon Boomers.

Good Morning Fogfighter, connie, soot, Draclvr, hagatha, SpaceQ, and everyone! Wide awake Double Dark brew awaits.

I hope all went well with hubby's appointment and the pain is easing. I have not heard of the "poop" pill but have heard of fecal microbiota transplant (FMT)....placing a donor's stool in your colon!

Hope you all have a sunny day!

Gerry

Good morning, Danish, Donuts and Bagels in the Break Room. Enjoy the day and hug someone.

Good Thursday morning! Fabulous conversation for early in the morning, Gerry! Yes, the FDA approved the pill a few years ago.

Post-op visit went well. X-ray showed replacement is still textbook perfect. Pain is easing up and just 2 days on the Cipro has eliminated the UTI symptoms. He will stay on it for another 3 days. I think he has turned the corner! Just in time because I'm exhausted! Hope I can get the trash down to the end of the driveway today. I couldn't last week because of the ice. It's raining right now and above freezing, so I HOPE that gets rid of the rest of it!

League bowling tonight.

Good morning Draclvr, Connie, Gerry, Space Quest Fan and all who follow That's wonderful news Draclvr about husband and the weather melting the ice for you. Modern medicine is pretty incredible. Good luck in bowling tonight Draclvr. Enjoying a cup of WADDB and a bagel before I get back to chores and projects. I agree Gerry

Have a wonderful Thursday everyone.

Good Morning connie, Draclvr, soot, Fogfighter, hagatha, and everyone! Wide Awake Double Dark Brew is ready!

It will be a rainy Friday here...probably won't get to walk as the cold, frozen surfaces of the road may have icy patches.

Hope you all have a great day!

Gerry

Yay! Friday! With WADDB.

Over here 2 Celsius and cloudy. Had a glitch in the computer and reinstalled the OS. I'm pretty sure the hexagons were not to blame. Thank heaven for backups. So back on track again.

Great the Draclvr hubby situation is improving. I keep my fingers crossed for you.
And wish all the GameBoomers a happy Friday

Good morning, Danish, Donuts and Bagels in the Break Room. Drac, I'm glad hubby is improving and the ice is melting. Enjoy the day and hug someone.

Good morning Connie, Fogfighter, Gerry and all who get the chance to pop in today. Ah....WADDB and bagels...it doesn't get much better than this on a T.G.I.F. morning. Got my walk in this morning before the rain starts. Yes indeed Fogfighter, back-ups are crucial in working with software. Grocery shopping is on my docket this morning.

Have a wonderful Friday everyone.

Good morning everyone.

Our break from rain has finally ended with a major rainstorm. We're possibly in for some snow, though it's not expected to be very serious. It's a Pilates morning and I'm struggling with the desire to just stay in bed and drink coffee and read. I will go, though. I'm always fine once I get there.

I am supposed to walk with a friend this afternoon but that's looking a bit dicey.

Good Friday morning! It's late, but we just got back from hubby's first PT appointment. They said he is already ahead of schedule for his range of motion, so hopefully the coming rehab will go quickly for him. It's been a bit of a rough road for both of us!

Kind of a dreary, cloudy day. Only thing I need to do is mop my floors, but there is absolutely no point! I'm tracking in mud and the ashes I use to walk on the ice and I'll just wait until things get better outside!

Hmmm... could it be a good day for some gaming?

Excellent news about your Husband, Draclvr !!

And never mind mopping any floors.
Caring for him and coping with all the other more important things is quite enough 👍👍👍

Good Morning Fogfighter, connie, soot, hagatha, Draclvr, Mad and everyone! Wide Awake Double Dark Brew is ready!

Fogfighter good to hear your computer is okay. Draclvr that is really good news hubby is doing well in physical therapy.

Enjoy your weekend everyone!

Gerry

Good Morning everyone!

Emergency use knäckebröd is available in the break room.

Computer is still cooperating today. So at least things are under control over here.
Wishing you all happy weekend.

Good morning, Danish, Donuts and Bagels in the Break Room. Shopping is on the agenda today. Trivia at the Eagles tonight. Enjoy the day and hug someone.

Fogfighter, there is nothing worse that a misbehaving computer! And backups are life-savers.

Just finished hubby's Saturday morning big breakfast. First time I haven't had to deliver it upstairs! Small victories are good. Now it's time for me to sit down with a nice cup of WADDB and relax.

Happy February!

Good Morning Fogfighter, connie, Draclvr, oldbroad, soot, hagatha, Mad and everyone. Wide Awake Double Dark Brew is ready.

Draclvr sounds like hubby is really healing nicely and making it a little easier for you...just be careful taking care of your chores and don't overdo. How was trivia Connie...not sure I would be good at that...getting too old...I remember things but can't always remember the name of things or people!

It has turned colder here and snow is expected tonight. I hope to walk this morning...may not be able to with snow tomorrow.

Have a peaceful Sunday everyone!

Gerry
