Aug. 24 - Sept. 5

From what has been a rainy MO,

Last Monday (a week ago) Jim and I went to Liberty for a meeting with Dr. Luce - his E,N,&T doctor. She "reminded" us that he had earlier been diagnosed with Meniere's disease - and that he had a "strong" attack this past Friday. She suggested things to do if he seemed to be having some early symptoms, so maybe we can ward off another trip to the emergency room.

The next day we had 6 month check-ups with our dentist - both of us had teeth cleaned - and otherwise escaped unharmed.

Last Friday we went to Marshall for the first official football game of the year. We were in a conference with Marshall for many years and then we switched to a conference that included schools to the west of us. Our team looked good so hopefully that is an omen of the season to come.

I had the computer work for Mobile Meals this past Monday (and will again this coming Monday) as Darla is under the weather.

Dustin came this afternoon and put a sealer coat on the deck. He does a really nice job and had it done it an hour. Jim just had him do the inner part of the deck - bench and walking area. We'll have him come back in a month and put a second coat down and look at rest of area for touch ups.

I had a small section of a tooth break off earlier this week and went in yesterday afternoon to have the area filled. I hadn't had need of an "shot" for 24 years - so guess my old teeth are holding up rather well.

We have a home football game tonight. Showers are in the forecast and the sun has already disappeared for the day. Previously it had been a gorgeous fall day.

On Saturday and Sunday will be the annual Chautauqua in the park. When I went to HyVee a few minutes ago, highway 65 is lined solid on the west side as displays are being set up. I hope to wander through it in the morning.

On Saturday - late afternoon - we will be heading to Edinburg for the annual reunion that one of the older residents puts on each year. He was a childhood buddy of Jim's so Jim always looks forward to this outing. He BBQs many pounds of meat and those attending just bring a covered dish as well as needed seating.

This coming Wednesday, we head to the NKC area as Jim sees his cardiologist for a yearly visit. He had bloodwork done a couple of weeks ago so we should be able to get those results as well.

Jim sees Dr. Luce again towards the end of September and the last weekend we are going to Kansas to attend a wedding of a son of one of my first cousins.

Take care.
B.

Our fingers are crossed for the Hornets. It makes it hard to type, though.
