Have been goofing off on the blog, so will attempt some writing-ev got word yesterday that her liver tests were okay, so now it's a go on the by-pass the first of march-We were both a little nervous about that-
Wrote an article for the Interlaken Historical Society's next paper. wrote about the School Merger. Some things I want to write about, but it is hard to remember things. The merger, I was a big part of it and President of the School Board when the State first reqested it, so things weren't to hard on that article. I have written some things for them before, & they published them-
Almost forty here today, but suppose to get colder again tomorrow. Kathy called and Joe her bird, has a bad tumor. She took him to the vets & guess not much can be done. She gave me that bird in about 1983 or 84 & when I moved she took him back. So that makes him pretty old for that type of bird.
Ev's daughter Donna here staying on the couch tonight. She had a Biopsy of her thyroid in Auburn, when it got time for her to go home she couldn't handle it. they told her it would be a week before results known.
Got Ev out for a few minutes today & up to Wal-Mart. Kinda wiped her out, but warm enough so she could breath outside. I did grocery shopping, while she did a couple clothing things she needed.
Guess I better quit for now-Love to You All-

Not to bad a day, but still kinda cold-Hope the weather holds off til wenesday, as I take Ev to strong in Rochester on tuesday to find out about her liver-
Always think in the winter of the many winters in the country & getting stuck & shoveling my way out of many problems-Still wouldn't change it for anything-The best job in the world-My Dad always said the same thing-
Would be good now being retired to get away for a bit in the winter, but thats not to be-Sit back, read, watch T-V & think of the Good Old Days-Not bad as long as you don't have to get out-
I'm making a meat loaf & bake potatoes for dinner & can smell the garlic in the meat loaf-Love to cook, so that is a good past time-
Seems so more snow & cold than usual this winter-Hope the new President can straighten the country out- I know it will take time, but don't want our children & grand-children to have to suffer to many months & years of this mess-
Okay stay warm everybody & spring will soon be here-

Sad, but true story
Not sure I should write about this, but dreamed about it recently & it won't leave my old mind-I've seen many people die in my life, but think this was one of the sadist-
It was sometime in the 1950's-I was coming up from the lake & had just turned off Rt. 89 onto Cayuga St., a mile from uptown-I saw a car coming around the curve by where Cayuga & Powell Rd. connect & it rolled over into a deep and large ditch-Got there & stopped the car & could hear screaming from under the upside down car-I ran to the house on the opposite corner & got the guy to call for help-Apparently people were pinned under the car a convertable type, but couldn't see them or get at them-The first thing to arrive was a tow truck from Gas Station up on the corner-He put a chain on the car & tried to lift it off them-Only a little ways up the chain broke and dropped the car back on them, & I found out later that at that point killed them all-So sad, as we found out later there were four young boys under there-
It was a scene I tried for years to forget & did til recently-No lesson learned here, but I guess you do the best you can when things are so helpless-

Haven't written on my blog since New Years-Had a miserable cold/flu & still can't get over it, but some better-Starting to eat some again & lost about 20 pounds-
Not much going on in our lives as Ev has been sick also-She is tougher than I so getting over it quicker I think-Just watch Syracuse basketball & the Med Store commercial I am in was on twice in that- Only seen in the central New York area-
Lots of snow & sick of it allready-Don't mind too much as long as I don't have to get out, but miss the fresh air when I don't-Lots of reading the past couple weeks, probably four books-Get tired of T-V all the time-
Not much going on this next week, unless we get word to get Ev back to Rochester for more tests-She has good & bad days-
Okay can't think of much-Love you All

Happy New Year to all my Family and Friends-Hope the new year will bring ( HEALTH, HAPPINESS & PROSPERITY TO YOU ALL )-
Tough day yesterday-Jan & George took us to Strong Hospital in Rochester & a very bad snow storm-Took about three hours to get there-Ev found she has to have a new by-pass on her left side as the right is plugged after only three years, or so-Not good , but will pray it helps her- The surgeon is booked solid so can't do it til Mar.10th-He is the best in the east, so want him to do it-
Better today & some sunshine-Woke up with a rotten cold-
Love you All-
