    Sucks. Sorry to hear...

    I'm hyper sensitive as i drew the short end of the genetic stick with colon, pancreatic and skin cancers in the family line.

    Only diseases I hate more are those that slowly rob cognitive (ALS, Alzheimer, dementia, etc) abilities...with some cancers in this lot...

    I'm so sorry to hear this .prayers for her and your family. I tell people this all the time, please when she is up to it let her share as many family memories and history as she possible can. You have no idea how much you'll appreciate this for your self but your kids, believe me. I lost my mom at 12 and with her much of my family history. I cherish and firmly hold on to the stories she did tell me.. one person's hind sight can be another's gain. God Bless.

    Have a widow maker hung up in a tall skinny popular by my wife hosta garden, I tried to shake it out and realized that was stupid I had no place to go when it fell. I was looking at it this afternoon and decided I am going to channel oldnotdead and use the pole saw to drop the poplar from a safe distance.

    Poplar at very easy to cut with the pruner. A skinny one should zip through fast.

    I know I use piledrivers and rage titaniums with my Destroyer turned up to 11 but this branch will not succumb to my mighty set up. (plus no way in hell I hit another branch perfectly that I was not exactly aiming at)

    Got a letter in the mail from the water company saying I didn't make my payment, yet I have an email confirming payment confirmation from you...newsflash, the 3rd party billing company you changed over to on June 1st isn't doing its job.

    It is one of my parents favorite bands. They caught the Texas World Tour back in the day. Pretty sure my first album was Tres Hombres. I'll be rocking it today.

    Played several rounds of golf with Frank, lived close to his top 40 ranch in Houston. When they played at the rodeo a few years ago live that’s a sound you never forget..

    Canada’s wildfires creating TERRIBLE air quality. 10 minutes from St. Cloud. I can’t imagine being outside if I had any sort of respiratory issues. The smell and haze is so bad you would think your neighbors house is on fire.
