Heavy Rain in Paradise

I was curious about those reports of a blizard in HI.  Enjoy your day off and stay dry.

  Been thinking about ya Neal, glad you and yours are ok. Please send snow storm here

Glad you didn't get the blizzard but you sure got a lot of water according to the news pics.

Stay Safe.

Yeah, it was coming down in buckets last night, so much so that most people went home early.  The freeway at 6:00 pm was wide open, but I kept it to 50 mph all the way home due to terrible visibility.

I haven't ventured around outside the house yet, but the yard looks nice and freshly washed!  The storm debris must have flowed down the street or something.

Yeah OK we don't get blizzards like on the mainland, so we have to make do with heavy rain.  Hope everyone else has a weather catsatrophe-free holiday season.  Shop early, stay safe, and build models!

So, I'm down for the count and out of work for a bit, having just gotten through an umbilical hernia surgery.  The abs hurt like the devil, and I need to go number two, but it seems afraid to come out....which is adding to the discomfort.  

I hope that with the next few weeks off, I will be able to tolerate bench time, after I work through my homework of several hours worth of I-Car classes gets completed....oh yeah, and I can't lift anything over ten pounds for the next 6 weeks....

Justin-. Went through most of the same limitations after the heart attacks and stents. Three months later they finally got me to 60 lbs.  Of course by then there were two of us mounting Dodge front bumpers, the non bendable type that go a good 200 lbs.  Technically I'm still at 60lbs, cause no one has ever changed it.  Just told me to use my judgement.  Constipation is a usual side effect of surgery.  The late wifemate was a CNA for more years than she would care to admit to.

Best wishes to get back where you were.

Daaaaaang you guys!  I did something to my lower back on Thanksgiving day while cooking and could not bend over for almost a week.  It sucks when you can't pull up yer pants!

Apologies to the young uns out there for the TMI - we geezers, ya see.

So, as for the lifting....it's not bothering me too much (it gets me out of a lot of the household chores...lol), although, I do hope to be able to get back to the gym and the weight training I once enjoyed!  As for lifting car parts, I got off the floor a few years back, as I saw what became of old body,en, I didn't want to become one myself...

the number 2 came all in a rush, but took its dang fine time doing it, at 2 o'clock in the morning yesterday....

God thing you were at home for that.  

You guys can have the snow, I've had more than my share of cold and snow from being in Maine, North ande South Dakota and growing up in Jersey.  Water I can handle, been through many a monsoon as well as hurricanes and typhoons.

Let's see now....... 6 lbs of shovel leaves 4lbs available for snow......sounds like job security until about July

Been told ya can't herd cats either.....as a former lead I'm not sure thats just a metaphore.

  G, are turkeys really THAT big in Hawaii?  Throwing your back out soesn't sound fun. However it is a great excuse for those akward middleage years when you really can pull your pant up...but don't want to.

 Get well soo Ryan
