Well, I'm sure there will be a large pile of Thoughts and Prayers extended. Nothing else, but in the words of Walter Cronkite... "And that's the way it is". Sadly!

How have you been sir? My wife and I spent three days in Greenville SC last month. I believe you live in North Carolina...correct? I thought of you when we passed thru your state driving back to NJ.

The one thing about trying to find a pair of shoes these days... because everything has gone to online sales, stores never have a good selection anymore, and they never have my sizes. But then when I order them online and they aren't the right size, I need to return them and try the next size. And it takes weeks to find the right pair.

THIS!!! I just went through a few months of trying to find a pair of shoes that actually fit!!

In-store stock: forget it. So, I'd order online (different brands/sizes) and I went through a number of returns. What a PITA. (Some were shoes I could return to a store, and they'd ship back to warehouse with their stock, for free. Other shoes from different companies, I had to eat the return shipping costs.) But I think the worst part was that the exact same shoe size fitted differently for each brand -- nothing is consistent anymore! :mad:

Thanks for asking, all things considered I am doing OK. A lot better than I deserve anyway. I have a list of things about a foot long in small type, of things that are wrong with me including Prostate Cancer, Pace Maker, High Blood Pressure (mostly controlled) and a whole bunch of other things, none of them life threatening yet, so I just list them when I'm looking for sympathy. 😉 Hope you are doing well too.

My Hearts emoji was to represent that I'm glad you are on the thread and that you answered me.
I wish you the best with your list of medical concerns! ;):)

To be honest, since I turned 69, my life is more keeping track of my health issues then anything else. I've been very lucky, so far and in all these years I have had only one incident that was life threatening and that was when I had a kidney stone and it became infected and went sepsis on me. I really thought I was done for with that one, I never had a situation were my entire body seemed to reject my ability to survive. I got to the ER just in time and the massive dose of Antibiotics did the trick in just a couple of days. Other than that it is just a practically daily situation where when I get up (which in itself is a good thing) I have something new that is causing me distress. It is a situation where you say to yourself... "Should I give it a day or two to see if it goes away on it's own or should I call 911". The wait usually works except for that kidney stone problem.

Heck, my Prostate cancer was diagnosed 10 years ago and has proceeded to slowly raise my PSA, but it has yet to develop into something that will get me before I would naturally bid farewell. Like I said, I've been very lucky. And I feel guilty because I did nothing in my youth to try and prevent any of my problems and although they are kind of cumbersome to deal with on a daily basis, none of it has stopped me from doing what I want. I just want a lot less! I might also add that a number of my problems are on the VA's list of things caused by exposure to Agent Orange.
