Happiness is like peeing in your pants. Everyone can see it, but only you can feel the warmth.

Up at 5 same reason, enlarged prostate, fatty liver, cysts on my kidneys take your pick. All cause the need to pee every two hours. Within 15 seconds of getting vertical I need to be at a place to pee, or the pee flows out anyways.

No dignity getting old.


Today I am doing the jobs that I put off. The wheelbarrow is full of ashes. Problem is there is a foot of snow that needs to be shovelled to get it out the door. Then four hundred pounds of poop boxes need to be emptied outside.

After that a big bag of wood pellets needs to be retrieved and the boxes refilled. Easy peezy.

My back is already hurting from shovelling ashes.

Next change out the oil in the gen, breakin period is done. I will be changing to a synthetic 5W30 to see if that helps with the surging.

I don’t think it will help.

The pain in my kidneys is severe right now. I need to go do work. Needs doing.

Ashes got dumped, the snow got shoveled, three long snow covered boards dragged in.

As I got back to the door it happened. Severe chest pains, out of breath, baby heart attack maybe. It didn’t matter. My driveway didn’t get done, not since the last time I called the local concilor.

If I called for an ambulance they would get stuck in my driveway. I am going to just lay down and hope I wake up.
