Boring times so maybe a highlight or 2. Usual hour workout at 9 am. Went out and swing the Superspeed clubs and my driver .

January has been a rough month for more than a few Buzzers. My sister, with no symptoms, had to
have stomach surgery to remove a smallish cancerous tumor. Luckily, the surgeon was able to retain
1/3 of her stomach and her recovery is going as well as could be expected. I saw my hand surgeon and
we decided to have carpal tunnel surgery when I return home in early March.

What next... 😏

Had Argon Laser Trabeculoplasty (ALT) on my left eye today. Had the right eye done last week. This is to reduce internal eye pressure. Taking 9 eye drops per day. Getting old sucks donkey balls.

Truth. Hang tough Rick. 🙏

Rick , Dan… ugh, sorry for you guys too. Not a good start to the year around here. Hopefully it can only get better. Last year didn’t end so great either.

Today he got his CT scan news, he has to go for an appt on Friday. Dr saw some abnormal tissue on his liver and a cyst on his kidney. Hopefully it’s nothing

Reminds me of one time when I was working in the pro shop, we had a guy come in who was TOTALLY pissed off b/c his cart “drove into the creek!” Turned out he was too lazy to get out and walk along the bank of the creek to find his ball, got careless, and there it was, up to the axles in water! The bank was pretty steep…..he was lucky he wasn’t injured!!

Typhoon

Par4QC you know what’s even funnier??? This morning the head pro at our place sent this to me as well and said, “ thinking of you”

Hanging at home today. Pulled a geezer move yesterday leaving work. My foot slipped off of the curb and slammed into the street causing me to slightly sprain my left knee. Nothing that won't heal quickly, but hurts quite a bit to walk in the short term. Gonna wfh and ice it down today.

Since I turned 70 (2.5 years ago) I walk more carefully. I've also restarted exercising my leg muscles. I'm more aware of how easy it is to take a tumble. Heal fast Johnny!

johnnydoom What is it about getting older that we don't see or judge where things are like that? I've noticed in the last couple years I tend to kick and step on things a lot more than the past. About a year ago I took a bad tumble tripping over a piece of wood resulting in broken glasses and a black eye.

Our course just reopened for walking only. I might get 9 holes in.

We ordered one of these low impact sitting ellipticals below. I have two torn tendons in my foot so this will allow me to move without stressing the tendons. Holding off on surgery for now. Will know this spring if I can play golf.

My wife just healed up from a stress fracture in her foot. So she’ll use it as well.

I have a similar sized under the desk magnetic resistance bike. The only thing I don't like about it is that I can't hang clothes on it like I could my full size exercise bike.

I'm pretty sure the ground has become closer to the bottom of my feet. That's my theory....................

MidwayJ

sdandrea1 Well if the ground has become closer I feel like I should see the chit that's down there better! 🙂

MidwayJ I know my feet and belly are a lot bigger than when I was younger. In college all my shoes were 10-10.5 and now they are 11.5-12. I'm guessing the extra weight is pressing down and making them larger.

MidwayJ

KCee My belly is certainly bigger but my shoe size has remained unchanged.

My urologist showed took me on a video journey from the tip of Wally-the-one-eyed-worm through my prostate gland and into the depths of my bladder. What fun! I'm thinking of doing a book report. 🙄. I was totally comfortable when the nurse squirted Lidocaine down Mr. Johnson...... wasn't awkward at all 🙄. Then she's teaching her assistant how to set all this up. Not awkward, no, not at all.🙄

The good news is, even though my prostate is still bigger than Texas, it's clean of any signs of cancer and still allows for decent flow (with meds). Recheck in 6 months. It hurts when I pee now. 🤬

sdandrea1 I think I had warned about that GoPro-on-a-hose procedure prior.

In your book, you may use the quote from my nurse....."there ya go....got ya all warmed up for him".
1st time I ever heard a nurse snicker like a horse.
