Great pics!

The monorail pic made my heart a flutter. I think my next vehicle needs to be a monorail.

Thanks!

You have posted some very unique photo's. Angles I've never considered.

Next time!!!

Thanks! I always envision myself taking these awesome artsy photos. What I actually take never really lives up to my expectations, but this trip the pics have come out pretty good.

Personal question - not asking for specifics ....

In Canada, all of your procedures/hospital stay would have cost nothing - outside of our outrageous taxes, that is. (As I shared before, ambulance costs $60 - unless you croak; in which case, it's free)

Do you have to foot the bill? Co-pay?
Just wondering.

In the states, we have to give our first born child to the healthcare companies.

Couple years ago my sister got charged $1000 just for a short ambulance ride and she had health insurance.

As for me. I don't think I can ever have a CT Scan or MRI. I'm not sure which one.

For some odd reason, the picture would not display on my computer. That happens sometimes.

You fold? I'm impressed. (I have failed to achieve the Good Housekeeping Award . . .)

Ha! Learn something about people everyday!

Yes I fold everything but those whites, they often linger at best. In winter I am better about it but it is still nice enough to be outside most days so the peeps have been rubbermaid diving looking for match sets to their socks and to find their own bloomers. I believe once in around 30 years my DH folded whites, maybe...it would have been long ago.

I do, but I never needed it with the 5 - and the battery performance of the 6 is much improved.

I had a new 5 when I went in April but because I took so many pictures I needed to charge it once each day in my string backpack.

iPhone! I have an iPhone 5. I'm not a big pic guy by any means. But I just stand really still, tap whatever you want to be the focus of the picture and snap. Seems to work for me. The iPhone 6 has a greatly improved camera that will do even better.

Every pic that I've ever posted on this site that was taken by me was taken with my iPhone 4. I've got a bunch of stuff in the photo threads. With some experimentation, and knowing it's limits, some of them can come out pretty darn good.

The dessert actually looks pretty good. Working in a hospital for many years now, and observing patients coming in and later discharged, it's no wonder the patients don't feel better until they "get sprung" (in your words) out of there. Between those ugly Johnny hospital gowns, and the cafeteria-style food on the trays, it's amazing that many of them don't try to "break out" of there sooner!

P.S.: As a reminder, remember those hospital gowns are open in the back . . . I recall a patient who stepped outside the hospital for a cigarette during a busy part of the day, and he failed to take into account that it was a windy day . . . Needless to say, one of the docs ran out there with a robe for the poor, unsuspecting "flasher" . . . .

Actually, all of it was pretty good. Nothin' to write home about, but, It was definitely way better than you'd think.

And, yep. I never forget about those "gowns"...!

And actually the new app wears down the phone too. I didn't take a camera but my DD did, she took half with her iphone and half with camera.

How ya feeling today?

Yep, I just posted a pic from my iPhone 4 in the Photo Association thread that I think turned out pretty decent.

Feeling very good today Gabe, thank you. Seems like ever since I found out all is OK up in my noggin' (relatively speakin' , of course ) I feel even better. That alone, seems to have relieved a LOT of stress...!

I think I heard the Doc say drink more beer to ward off stress.

I wish I had known.

Now I'm just going to be sad eating the chili I'm making.

 

[donaldtoo]

So are you feeling any less Goofy?

Less goofy, no. Less loopy, yes.

 

[donaldtoo]

Well, yeah, I can see ya doing that, think ya've done similar to me. I recall years ago you locking yourself in a closet with loved ones when the tornado was hitting and I was like...................

Hahaaa...!
Yea, I think several of us have done the tornado thing over the years.
"Tornado comin'...gotta' go!!!"

I picked a good day to watch a Ravens game on TV. Normally I don't watch or only half pay attention, but this first half has been pretty good.

First of all, we're all happy and relieved that you are o.k. I'll bet that Belle and Ranger were ecstatic upon your arrival home, too! Dogs stress out when a member of the "pack" (not to mention, their bestest buddy) is away from the "den". I hope you can relax at home with your family today. I'm sure DWifey will cook you a delicious dinner to celebrate your return.

As for your head MRI experience, I'm glad you enjoyed it. I had one of those done a few years ago, and I was freaked out; the cage made me feel claustrophobic, even though that's not usually an issue for me. Just like you, I had the headphones on, and the technician kept talking to me (from his adjacent room location via the headphones), assuring me that all was fine, etc. (You'd think I was a 5-year-old; I was such a fraidy-cat. Ha!) Luckily, the technician was used to some (pathetic, like me) patients who had fear issues with the cage, and had his soothing spiel perfected!

Thanks again!
Initially, DWifey wanted to spend the night at the hospital with me. I finally convinced her to go home and get some sleep, especially since the MRI came back negative. But, yes, yesterday morning she told me the dogs were kinda' freaked that I wasn't home for the night. Se also told me how much she missed me bein' next to her in our bed. Ditto, hon.
And, I'm actually takin' her and the kiddos out to dinner.

In regards to the MRI, at one point they mentioned a sedative. But, by that time, it was gettin' late and I was gettin' tired and just said let's do this. Along with the techno concert goin' on, I just kinda' pretended I was Major Tom.

Hey, I'm making chili too! It's a turkey chili that cooks slowly for 6 hours in the crockpot. I like the recipe because it's really easy, and almost impossible to make any mistakes. It always comes out yummy!

That was really pleasant. Thank you for putting up the youtube version which worked fine on my computer.

I made something like that a few times, real good! This one though, I'm going old fashioned without a fancy recipe. There were a few flaws. Most notably me forgetting to get the french bread early in the morning and then returning back home from getting it to see it overflowed onto the stove...

(We've all had "surprises" while cooking . . . I've had quite a few! )
