What did you accomplish today?

Bareback

Went to urgent care so I could get an MRI scheduled which needs done before I can get an appointment with a pain clinic for my back. Hopefully the imagery place will get back to me in the next couple days.
I hope they can get you in a better place as far as quality of life. My wife has been in pain management care for about six years now and she just went through a bunch of imaging from her head to her tailbone and it revealed way more damage than her doctors knew. Most of the time her doctors will be positive and try to give her some hope but not this time it was heartbreaking to see the level of concern that they had and the level of hopelessness in their expressions . Maybe you’ll get better news than we did. Plus there’s a lot of medicine shortages and we both have a lot of trouble finding our meds from month to month.

Good luck .

I am so sorry to hear this. I could say so damn much but I'll suffice with much love and hang in there. You just gotta roll with the punches. :hug::hug:

I'm sorry to hear that, I'm not in that bad of shape at least. I'm hoping that some cortisone shots will let my spine readjust to where it isn't resting on a nerve, it worked once before. I exploded a disk between L5 and S1, spent 4 hours on the table getting pieces of it picked away from my spine. I'm missing half my right calf muscle because of nerve damage. They didn't fuse my back so it wanders sometimes. I'll be happy to not have to walk with a crutch and I'm NOT going to live on opiates unless it gets unbearable. At least I am walking, I couldn't before surgery. That was a couple decades ago.

Stealing water is called "Theft of services" and is an arrest able offense.
Easily verifiable by LEO's on scene.

Just spent over an hour cleaning and staking up my outdoor plants, which are doing nicely. I used 40 gallon fiber bags and they worked so much better than small bags/buckets.

I have one of @BobBitchen's Meltdowns, that is starting to show a little purple...

Looking good dude!
But I fucking hate grasshoppers now. We had a MAJOR outbreak this summer. They killed my new 2000sqft lawn and everything else that was green. Never seen anything like it. Neighbors who have been around for a while say they do that roughly every 10 or so year but especially really bad this year coming out of consecutive drought years and a wet winter
If i showed you guys videos i took in my phone you probably still wouldn’t believe me.

Got my new digital antenna and 90 degree adapter to hook the cable up to the back of the TV, it's too close to the wall to connect it without it. I need some thumb tacks to put it up with, I'm not using the double sided tape that rips the sheetrock apart when it is removed.
