Wow - leave for lunch and all heck breaks loose - or something broke loose.

Nice pics Timmmmmmmmmmmmmy

Debbie - what you mean you've never heard of Sink the Stink. That's the bestest product in the whole wide world. All of our gear gest a good soaking before going back in the scuba closet. It would actually make sense to put it in a spray bottle too for the times when it is "in-between" dives. Hmmm - I'll have to try and remember that for next time.

out!

cynde
just checked in. hope all went good with surgery. big hugs.

Everyone, please be sure to look at PAGE 1 to see the pictures Timmmy posted...

YoMo, guess I lived a sheltered life, I'm afraid, so much I have yet to learn. Hope I got a lot of years to learn them all in!

Brad, saw them, and now all want to do is dive, dive, dive!

Lovely pictures Timmmmmy! Who is your new furry friend?

GREAT pics, Timmmy!! I love stuff that makes me smile!!

I'd be smiling more if I was on Bonaire too, diving, and not in the path of some stupid storm again!!! Our yard is still soaked and muddy. I hate rain!

Can someone please say something that will make my "SNAP OUT OF IT!!!" and get back to my normal happy self??

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM...
I have a kitten, I have a kitten, I have a kitten, la la la la la

Mara, don't tell Smack but I spray him with sink the stink between dives too:-O

P.S., "Chocolate" there are you smiling now. I want more pics of Tabasco - STAT!!!

Timmy, awesome close up of the baby drum.

Hey Gang.. talk about sink the stink...don't tell those dive shop people but I use downey fabric softener on my wetsuit and booties and it is great and does the job...

Dang - and I have the gallon jug of Sink the Stink. Well I'll use that till it's out and then I'm in for some Downy I tell you. so you do put it in a spray bottle and spray the stuff Freddie?

Just talked to Cynde.
The tape thing caused a killer rash as you might know. It's not good and she feels like sh## because of it.

Never considered using Downy, Freddie. My booties can get RANK in no time!

Pegi Sue, have you looked at the change in Hanna's path? You might not want to look. And then Ike and Josephine all marching in behind her. yikes

Just came in to shut my office down. I like getting off at 4:00! That 4-5 was the llllooooonnnnngest hour of the day. See you all later.

Downy and other home remedies only mask the odor. Sink the Stink kills the bacteria that causes the odor. No I am not a doctor but I had duct taped a lot of dryer sheets to wetsuits, booties and Smack over the years, when they fell off..........WOAH BABY!!!

Jerry, did you send all the wackos here this afternoon? It turned out to be crazier than mating season at the zoo here this afternoon. I think most were your in-law's neighbors. Best was a person that after trying on four wetsuits found one that she could:

a. zip

b. breathe in once it was zipped

She said

"Sir, I'm a size 8 but this wetsuit says 12-14."

to which I replied

"Yes, I could tell you are an 8 Ma'am, actually thought you might be a 6 however, those numbers do not represent women's sizes, they represent the age range of girls that normally fit in that size suit."

"KA----------CHING"

I swear, she wanted to marry me.

R.A., YGM

you smart man - VERY smart.

Smooth, Tom, real smooth!

Just got the grass cut, front and back, workout for the day done. Gregg is just about or is boarding his plane for home right about now. No delays, sunny and all there. Never even rained he said. Tiffany should be good for her flight too tomorrow. Only problem, rain on her Marine's graduation day. Oh well, hope they can do it indoors. I am sure it will be great indoors or out, he even payed for her airplane ticket as he really wanted her to be there to see the graduation. Ain't love grand?

Where did PS go? Been waiting on pics of that cutie, Tabasco all day. Just had to get Ginger and put her in the garage for a time out. Seems she thought she could get a mole in the yard and was digging to China, (imagine big mound of dirt with her butt in the air going at it!) Daddy will not be pleased, she didn't even get the darn thing, but then again, she tends to devour them when she does get them, so maybe she did? Well, that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

PS,

It's also almost time for me to take Brandon to soccer practice and go to work. See you all later tonight.

Hi all, quick pop in...thanks for the call Jerry. Went to the surgeon this morning, and he just about shi# when he saw my allergic reaction...I told him I was allergic to surgery adhesive!!! GRRR...anyway, I have a nice 12x7 inch "patch" of blisters/swollen/itchy/burning skin. He put me on steriods, 2 creams (1 is a 3rd degree burn cream), and better pain meds. When I told him that I had:

1. told the admitting nurse I was highly allergic to steri strips, surgery glue and adhesives...
2. told the surgical nurse and the anestheseologist the same thing
3. it was on my surgical wristband...

and they still used the surgical adhesive all over me!!!

doc apoligized and felt really bad. So, it amounts to a really really bad case of contact dermatitis...FOUR WEEKS minimum to heal! AND, he said it probably has not "peaked" yet..ugh...

so, i am NOT FEELING FRESH!!!

gotta go lay back down...

I am so sorry for you Cynde. Bad enough that you had to be rebuilt, but the tape. That's just wrong.

Well, this recovery was supposed to be 10 days or so...but now....4 weeks? It wasn't tape, it was surgical adhesive...slathered...all over...then stupid tape...he thinks it was the adhesive that did the worst of it when i called him this weekend TWICE to try to get help, he acted like I had a "little itty bitty rash"...haha...NOT!

Off to the butcher shop / wine shop / drug store, then home and vac-pack the meats, then diner.

Rest up Cynde.


Check Please.

So. CA surgical adhesive. No wonder you have a rash!!!!

Hi Cynde, hope it will cheer you up to know I have started the second cardigan. Feel better soon.

Sorry about the rash Cynde, hope it is better soon. Rain, rain and more rain here in south Arkansas!!! Hello to everyone !!!

Hotter than heck in Tampa, on wine glass no. 2. Mine aren't as big as Jerry's.

Cyn, I hope your rash gets better from whatever you had done! (I feel so out of the loop lately!) Just sorry you have ick on top of ick. xx

Our gov'na decided he won't go to the Republican National Convention. Too many hurricanes lined up on us.

I'm ready for H'season to end. Can't wait to be on Bon in (not counting today!) 10 days.

Busy day for me. Pressure washed the side walk and drive way. Big Job! John came home a little early, and I was finishing up in the rain..... and I'm sure the 'returning home from work neighbors' got a laugh at him holding a big umbrella over me while I finished the last part!!!! Needless to say he impossed a lashing whip over me to say 'Move on, slave woman!' Of course I couldn't hear over the pressure washer!

And through this site I've learned - there's ANOTHER named storm! Josophine! How many can we handle!!!????

This is pretty much what the "rash" haha...more like omg 3rd degree burn looks like...12x7 inch area...

OMG you poor thing... does the cortizone help?? i have never had it that bad nor have I had that big of an area..but I do feel your pain!! OUCH!!!

O M G, I know that must be extremely painful, Randy and I will keep you in our prayers that it will heal quickly.

yeeeeeeouch Tink. Is one of the creams silvadene? It sure helped me many years ago.

OH JOHN, JOHN THOMAS, STAY AWAY FROM GAIL DURING RAINSTORMS!!!

Cynde, give me a stick and these medical genius's addresses...I'll take care of them....

Tom, the doc gave me a higher dose hydro cream, but that made it worse this afternoon. The other he gave me a script for is the silvadene, i need to have michael go fill the script though. also on prednisone to try to get the inflammation down. and yes, it hurts like a MOFO...

cb, you snuck in there. the hosptial did call this afternoon and wanted to know how i was doing...i let her know...she was "silent"....the thing is, i would be back at work tomorrow had this not happened...and it was a medical mistake on their part...very frustrating...let's get out a can of whoop arse!

Oucheewowwow! That is just not right, not at all. Hope the new meds start giving you relief real soon.
4 weeks? Egads, maybe you should be talking to an attorney. A picture says a thousand words ya know.
Rest and try to take it easy there. cyper hugs to you.

I give ya credit for indurance over the week-end. I would have been in the ER flipping out. You are one strong lady, Cynde! 12x7 area is not a small area.

MICHAEL GO FILL TINK'S SCRIPT - STAT!!!

Tink, the silvadene is good stuff however be very careful and watch for any side effects especially if you are allergic to sulfa drugs. I wish for you to have a quick healing process.

Barbara "CB", I'll hold em for you.

OUCH Cynde! I am so very sorry you're in pain. That is a big screw up on the hospital's part. Hope they're paying for meds or something for their mistake.

CB, you're my kinda gal!

Just got back from my salon appt. Was time to touch up those highlights and gray roots!
Now watching the news and trying to see if we are going to the beach this weekend! Mother Nature might have other ideas brewing out in the Atlantic.

Cynde!
So sorry for your injury looks very painful
Hope it feels better soon.

DFW!!!! SO glad you popped in. We're loving your CAM appearances

You're looking good

Kobi, bike crash to salon appointment...you're MY kind of girl!

Cynde, I guess your work will have to let you recover, but that's going to be ugly, isn't it? Does the dang hospital just say "too bad, and here's the bill."? Not right...

DFW I laugh every time you check in...for the longest time I was reading your user name as dwarftraveller...duh!

My brand new laptop went brain dead last night. Engineer Eric says there's no reviving it, so I have to take it to Fry's Electronics tonight. i asked Eric if he's do it, and he told me to try and be a big girl. I HATE Fry's. It scares me. I should get RosAnne to go with me, but I know it's soccer night for her...

LOL, I have changed my callsign to Crash; thanks to Tom for the idea LOL!
Whew....I'm sore today but surviving Glad I can make ya laugh!! GOD knows Rob's been laughing at me lately

OMG....CB, now the dwarf thing just made me wet myself LOL!

Um, Fry's?! Is that really the name of an electronic's place!! LOL

Ouch Cynde! Good soothing thoughts coming your way. And...I do know a really good personal injury lawyer.

Two words.

Supper glue!!!

Supper glue, Jerry? I can't even make anything up to go with that.

Is it the meal that brings the family together?

Or is it how the mashed potatoes come out when you reheat them?

Good one Jerry....supper glue.....

They should have used supper glue.

I'm going to play with Caymus and have a cigar. Have a nice evening my dear friends.

Cynde, FYI thats not the correct sport!

I have a SLAP rash pic, and you are miles away.

Slap slap slap.

OMG - CB you crack me up woman... dwarftraveler - LMDAO (and it was well needed today!!!)

Crash - you sure are versatile (motocross to the salon in 24 hours).

Cynde - YEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWCCHHH. At least he did say "sorry" not that it helps you feel any better physically. You need an extra set of arms or feet for the whoopin party, you just let me know - I'll fly out for that one!!!

Florida peeps - jeezum crow... 3 more potential storms coming at you? Take it easy and stay safe!

Timmmmmmmy - nice pics... can we have some more please?

Hi to everyone else!

Couldn't check in all day today. We have New Orleans refugees here at the house and they want to go home but the mayor said "no don't" so they are leaving tommorrow. Terrible to be so worried about home and can't get there. Nothing but depressing new all day.

Timmy - thanks for the pics

Cynde - hope your feeling better tonight

DFW - dwarf...LMAO

Jerry - I missed "wine o'clock but I got it now.

Hope everyone has a good night. Hugs where needed. I need one too........
