My online journal where I share my interests in photography, nature, coffee life, journaling, fountain pens, bicycling, spirituality and asking deep questions.
Horsing around yesterday and decided to send a silly test message to my family and friends. Thought maybe it could bring a smile to their day and maybe yours.
“With all the isolation staff goingon,, Ive been texting a lot more and I’ve noticed the fallowing. Sendin text messengers require the need to reed them very carefuly, more than ounce., checking for any and ale erors before pushing the sand button.”
I’ve been using the bus system in Fort Collins for about 5 years now. Like most things it took a while to get use to it and learn how it all works. I’m happy with it and use it it at least 4 days a week. As a senior it only costs me $25 a year.
I’m pleased to see the bus almost always has passengers which means it will continue to run. I say almost because last week I jumped on Bus 2 at 6:50 am and I was the only person on it. Just before we arrived the transit center I began to giggle because my crazy and sometimes insane mind had the thought that now would be good time to fart on the bus. So, I took advantage of it! After all no one would know. 🙂
Snow is expected today 3-6 inches and as you can see is beginning to stick. Have a super Awesome day!
Looks like some college students are already in the Christmas spirit. But, I wonder if they remember it.
So, is there some guy coming to on the floor wondering where his pants are, where his car is, where’s his wallet and where’s his shoes. Or could it be one of those alien abductions our friend Paul’s written about?
Today they will pop the hood and do the valve job. At pre-op last week I learned that this morning I will have a tube down my nose, a tube down my throat, and a catheter inserted. Sounds like fun, huh!
Today I am grateful for life, what I’ve accomplished and all I still dream of accomplishing, my family and friends, and each new lease on life. Hopefully this surgery with offer me another lease. If so, then I believe my task will be to use the coming years to the fullest, whatever that may be.
The new aortic valve will look different than the one pictured above and definitely be much smaller. The valves are usually made of pig or cow, somehow. The doctors have chosen to use one made from a cow which has an expected lifetime of 15-20 years, about 5 more than a pig.
I have really not had much worry but every once in awhile a feeling of fear arises then subsides. The surgery does not bother me as much as the recovery. Probably not going to be posting much for a while but will get back on line as soon as I’m able. Thanks for being a part of my life!
I walk by this home on a regular basis, see the sign, smile and but have always hesitated to take a photo. This morning was different. In fact I took two images. The home is across the street from campus and from the looks and location I assume it’s residents are college students. There was a time when I would have followed the sign. 🙂
One advantage of having a camera with me at all times is the opportunity to take street portraits. We just never know when we may find a smiling face to photograph. 🙂
