A few (?) years back I found out I had a meniscus tear + starting of arthritis in the right knee. I’ve had a couple cortisone (?) shots last year. This March I went to the Ortho clinic and had a few X-rays taken. I had the doctor’s PA.
 
Anyway, she told me the meniscus was no longer the problem because the arthritis ate it away. 😬 So it’s now bone on bone.
 
I finally made the appointment to see my Ortho doctor to see what he would say. Not only bone on bone but I also have a bone spur. 😳
 
To make a long story short: Surgery is scheduled for Thursday, September 29. 
 

 

 
 

well one of my heart valve is leaking so I'm going to see a heart specialist and other surgery is coming hear hoping the new system is here first

Your profile picture made me laugh 😄

So... I'm an elder now 😲Pray for the newly appointed ones 

Today is a very important day in which we remember the sacrifice of our Lord Jesus.
 
I wish everyone a happy Nisan 14 whenever it is your part of the world.

Why does life always want to mess me up

2 year anniversary of the helicopter crash that killed Kobe Bryant and 8 others. Rip.  I don't think I've ever been impacted by a death more, even though I didn't know them. Pro athletes are humans just like us, and we have to cherish our life's and others because it is so fragile and you never know what could happen.

Just did a RAT and it came out positive for COVID.

We just found out that we had over 3 feet of snow over 24 hours in our local area.  Our townhomes still haven't been plowed as of going to work.  Many of our friends are still without power.  I had to trudge through knee deep snow to get to the entrance to our townhomes so my co-worker can pick me up and take me to work.  We are the only two that can make it, so the boss is giving us DOUBLE PAY for today!

I'm still here 😁

Thoughts that can help in the fight against bad habits and addiction.

1. A parasite lives in your head. It feeds on the pieces of your brain to which you send the fulfillment of your addiction. To get rid of the parasite, there is only one way: starve it to death. If you want him to die, just stop giving him food. With hunger the parasite will rebel and get on your nerves. But you remember that it takes time for it to die, be patient and relax. Just don't feed it.

2. Pray to Jehovah regularly. You don't need to make every prayer long or in a pattern. The main thing is to remember Jehovah, that he protects you. And give thanks to him. This will develop in you a prayerful mindset and you will feel how much your friendship with Jehovah will grow. You can think of it as a pill for the parasite in your head.

3. Analyze your whole day. At what moments might you see things related to your addiction? For example, your co-workers or acquaintances may be smoking, drinking. Pornography pops up at work. Watching movies or playing games where these things are considered something normal. Remember, these are not little things! If you want Jehovah to bless you, you need to be careful, like Gideon's warriors, gulping water with their hand.

4. Remember the reward - eternal life. Indulging in addiction is like trading Jehovah's priceless gift for something empty. Like Esau did, trading the blessings from Jehovah for a bowl of chowder, for the satisfaction of hunger. The eternal for the minute. Make the right investments-not short-term ones that bring only illusions, but eternal ones that bring real joy and satisfaction.

5. Whose side do you want to be on? Bad habits are the work of Satan. It is his mockery of the image and likeness of Jehovah. The Creator has put qualities in us such as love, kindness, and wisdom. And gave us free will! But by going along with addiction, man goes against those qualities, abuses free will, and along with Satan and his supporters, laughs at Jehovah's gift. Choose who you want to be for.

What are you Grateful for? 🙂

Too much stress and drama this time of year... Really starting to dislike Winter again...

TODAY we are celebrating our 66th wedding anniversary.
He has been a faithful Brother for 50 years, a MS who pioneered many years. He is now in hospice in a nursing home so I don't know if there will be a 67th. 😢

Funeral for a 92 yo brother today. Many connected on Zoom. 69 years of faithful ministry for Jehovah in my region. Lot of emotion, people meeting again after decades... Can't wait for the reverse ceremony in Paradise...

Is there anything better than mankind's ability to share his feelings and thoughts through language? Maayong adlaw sa tanan

Sorry I have to ask it.
 
Did any Aussie's feel the Earthquake?
 
I was unloading a semi-truck at Harvey Norman in Geelong, saw the roller door shake and thought it was a gust of wind.
 

Had my first dose of the pfiizer vaccine yesterday. Arm is a li sore and I need to mis a dose of methotrexate for my psoriasis.
 
 I also have a new job as a metal detector at the food factory. I just sit next to the conveyer belt and occasionally pick bits of metal of me. Can tread at the same time. Also once a month I need to sit and do nothing for 15 minutes on update Tuesday

Today is the anniversary of the day I met my wife  15 years
