A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
Went camping this weekend at a campground on the lake, had not been there for a few years. Once there I began to walk around looking at the different sites when I noticed a very old dog. He just lay t...

Well, yesterday was colder than colder and it was 35* when we woke up this morning. At least no rain yesterday and it appears dry today. And like was mentioned, it's supposed to start warming up. Yesterday that old north wind was blowing and it shows us no mercy down here.
Duchess remembers her old "pee park" and even though she can't see, she wants to smell and explore the entire lot, making sure she doesn't miss anything. I keep telling her she's got six months to sniff it all out.
Terry's doctor in Indiana contacted us when we were headed to Florida and said he wanted Terry to have an upper/lower GI. His "girls" were supposed to set it up in Florida but dropped the ball. No surprise there for sure. So Terry told them to forget it and he would try getting it done when we got to Texas. I had to go to urgent care Monday for an eye inflammation and on the way back we stopped at the gastro clinic in Edinburg. Got a consultation appointment yesterday and spent the morning seeing the doctor, etc. We really like this man and he was very cooperative in working with Terry's cardiologist in getting it all set up. So he ended up with blood work and the procedure is scheduled for Monday morning. Wow! Never thought that would happen so quickly. But Terry really wanted it done and out of the way so he could forget about it.
The doctor said it is very likely the problem he is seeing is a result of the prostate radiation he had eight years ago. He said they see it often, and there isn't any treatment. . . just more like we have to rule everything else out. So that set Terry's mind to ease. I tell you. . . he has been a Million $$ man many times over since this journey began! LOL
Visited with a neighbor here who lost her husband on Father's Day this year. They are good friends. She is doing well, she said she is much better down here because there is more for her to do and she can stay very busy.
We are still working at getting things organized here. We are selling Mom's place behind us, but we turned on the power the other day and 2/3 of the trailer is without power. Apparently there are 3 zones and the only zone working is the middle one. Terry has done some troubleshooting, but with the rain and cold temps, he had to stop. He especially doesn't want to work with electric in the rain.
Take care FOOF's and settle in the for the winter.
