A friend had a problem with the neighbor's tom cat peeing on his truck. He hooked a neon sign transformer to the bumper, one lead to the bumper, one to a ground post. It took two nights, but he finally got the little bastard. The cat never came into his yard again!
The snakes are officially out and about in my yard/pond... Tigger Wood as pictured previously, (my little snake charmer) stank to high heaven after this photo was shot yesterday! Little S#&$!!!
I see that you all shipped my goodies Nathan. Thanks very much!! I'da waited just fine till we landed at the track in a couple weeks, but appreciate what you did just the same.
One of my late wife's surgeons once told me it would make his life a lot easier if people came with built-in zippers. :biggrin5: Sounds like the leg is actually the bigger problem though at this point.
I've done that. It wasn't fun and I'm normally the squeamish type but I learned I could turn that off temporarily to focus on doing the deed. Sorry I'm not closer. I think fear of the unknown was my biggest problem and once I was told exactly what to expect and exactly what to do it turned into something bearable.
Have they suggested a wound vac for the leg? Not sure if it would be appropriate other than the packing you are doing, it the pack for absorbing or it it a medicated pack?
Wound vacs are used for those little or big pesky wounds that do not want to heal, they keep the area dryer. Just a thought.
Of course most times they are used for folks who are in bed and not wanting to move around much.
Nothing new to report today. It's been fairly quiet here. Keep going on walks and trying to accomplish a little more each day. Still shooting for the goal of spending most of the day June 27 at Mid-Ohio for the Can-Am challenge. Some people think I'm nuts for wanting to attend so soon. Others are supporting my goal.
I'm looking forward to 2 things right now. Getting the OK to drive again and starting cardiac rehab.
I do worry a little that my slightly modded MINI might beat the carp out of me when I start driving again.
Just keep making steady progress, and don't try to rush it.
If you're going to Mid-O, consider renting a golf cart for the weekend, it makes life so much easier when walking is difficult - it will allow you to enjoy the weekend instead of worrying or suffering - cause if it's hot out, you will be miserable otherwise.
