The wider the spread of those prongs, the more intense the pain for those 5-8 seconds. Upper back and lower leg? Wooooowheeee, that'll hurt. |

Good Saturday Morning to All! It's an overcast 62° on the way to just 68° and rain today. Second day in a row our power went failed, briefly this time, a couple of hours yesterday. Funny, I have two new battery backups I received last night, not connected yet, I was charging them first. |

Ya, speaking of getting old.

Highlight of the day... burned some leaves with Bucky. Thanks for the hospitality. It was a nice short break away during my stay. I was lucky enough to smoke a couple of his nice cigars, and drink a couple sodas while relaxing on 8's deck. Met his beautiful wife and his lovely dog. One thing I learned was 8's hidden infatuation for me. He even has my name etched in stone and prominently displayed on his deck. https://imgur.com/PKqu5XG I don't know if I should feel honored or scared. Thanks again Russ for the break and the great cigars. |

A nice 69 going to 93. Wife and I did a loooong hike in the desert reserve and then she treated me to a laaarge stack of buckwheats at our favorite breakfast joint in old town Scottsdale.

Final day of the Premier League season. Two of three teams will be kicked out of the league today.
The anguish of the fans is visible and the tension is pulsing.
If American sports kicked out the bottom three teams each year, I'd follow most if not all sports.

Just finished another pool workout and looking forward felling good all day as a result.
Wife blew her back out this morning and is lying in bed after taking a muscle relaxant. Tuesday, she is having major foot surgery, so I'll still be taking care of her for 4-6 weeks because she won't be able to drive to and from work. F' me! But, what else do I really have to otherwise do besides stay home and take care of her.
Anyhow, we had a cold front yesterday and today such that it didn't quite hit 80F yesterday, and today will only be 86F with low humidity. Last night on the Vherf, Leo said I should be calling it Indian Winter. I'll go with that.
Looking forward to Game 7 of Heat v. Celtics tomorrow night. The last 3 seconds last night- were surreal in a good way. What a final play!!!
Hope you all have a great day! |

Both the Celtics and the Heat should be ashamed of themselves for losing 3 games in a row each, especially the Heat. If Celtics win, it will be a historical come-back from the brink of elimination for the record books- and a major black mark on the Heat. We'll see if can one of them can even beat Denver. |

Feeling somber.
Only have one more day (tomorrow) with the folks before I fly back to MA. Still a few random chores to do. Mow the lawn, do a some laundry, prep some meals that Dad can nuke while Mom is away from home at the physical rehab place (probably another week), etc... Luckily the rehab place is only a mile away so it's an easy visit but my Dad gets tired easy.
Brother, cousin, friends and neighbors will check in on Dad this week. My sister and niece and nephew will be coming from MN this weekend for a week stay.
