Still waiting on the results of the MRI and what tests the doc had run. Little worried on what they come back with. But will deal with what ever when we cross that bridge.

Not sure how to take the news. Reporting I have a lesion on my prostate. I go back to the doc Friday to see what we are going to do. They are talking doing a biopsy. I'm like lets just remove it and check it out later. We will see what his game plan is.

We are scheduled for July 15th for them to go in and do a biopsy. That was the earliest they could get me in. Good thing is I'm not having any symptoms or issues. If something does come up, I'll be making phone calls.

Other than that, just been busy trying to get the garage straightened up for the car. I'm starting to chomp at the bit to get going on it. Then work hasn't been fun.  They just told me I can't start until 7:30 and have to work to 4:30 and take an hour lunch. I hate hour lunches. Getting to and from down town is now going to be a biotech when I go.

I hear ya!! After an hour lunch I could give a rat's a$$ if anything gets done. I just want to go and take a nap. On top of trying to find something to do for an hour drags me down. If home, If I would go and work on a project. About the time I get going I have to stop. Not enough time to run any errand's either.   :finger

Well been a crazy last couple weeks. That last rain we had on 6/1, we developed a leak in the roof at the house coming through a swamp cooler that we haven't used and not able to use since we moved in. I spent last Saturday morning disconnecting the large vent tube from the cooler to the AC box in the attic and caping it off. Now I need to get the cooler off the roof and get the hole plugged and covered.  Hopefully before we get the next rain storm.  :eek

Got it mostly tor down last Saturday morning. I hope to get it all off the roof this weekend hopefully before Saturday so it can go off to the dump with a few other things. I'm off Thursday and Friday to make a 4 day weekend. The motor looks almost new. Spins nice. I didn't put power to it though. I'll hang on to that for the folks cooler. It may work on it. Finaly got a shelf put up that I have been working on in the garage. Slowly getting things organized.

Yeah, best to keep that motor for a spare, never know when the main one will take a $hit.

Got everything off the roof last Sunday morning. Have a guy coming tomorrow to see whats needed to fill the hole and seal it up. Looking at it I think I need to have someone deal with the hole so they can make sure it's not going to leak. I'm just not comfortable doing it. I didn't make the dump last weekend but have everything ready to load up and take it this Saturday morning. That will include a bunch of branches I cut off the trees in the back. I should have a full truck.  :good

Yeah, that has to be done right or you could end up with a huge repair bill down the road, hopefully you'll find someone that will do it "right". :rolleyes I should make a trip to the dump too, got a lot of crap that I should get rid of. :banghead

Finally got everything off to the dump. Had a full truck. Didn't even try to put anything in the trailer. Have someone coming tomorrow to fill the hole in the roof. Sunday mowed the front and back yard. Had a bunch of small pieces of branches that needed to be cleaned up that took a bit. Hopefully this weekend I can relax.  :laugh  :rolleyes
