    Surgical scheduler called. First procedure is next Wednesday the 11th, second the following Tuesday the 17th. Have to have 2 due to size of stone and the blood and debris that happens when they laser it. They won't be able to see clearly due to all that stuff. They also put in a stent during the first one to help with healing, take it out during second one. Also getting pre-op visit and labs set up.

    I wish you well with those procedures. In the end, it will be worth it.

    Nobody in my area has seen or caught a bear on there camera systems in 3 or 4 years. Not sure where they went, but I'm ok with it.

    Last week, my son's security system recorded a young moose wandering through their home yard in Litchfield Me. Not too unusual, considering they live on 25 acres and the home is 1,000 feet off the road.

    Laser procedure went well. Have a stent in urethra, so peeing blood and have burning pain. Stent makes me pee more so sticking close to the bathroom. They want me to drink 80 oz of liquid a day but there's no way I can do that without vomiting.
    Doc didn't talk with me or Lori afterwards.

    Ended up speaking with the doctor late afternoon. Turns out the 45 minute surgery took over 2 hours. Seems stone was 3 times longer than the CT scan showed and was a lot harder so it took a while to cut thru with the laser. He said he got it broken up really well but is doing the 2nd laser procedure next Tues just to be sure. So god knows how long it's been growing. Maybe it's the cause of all my issues after all.

    Hopefully that is the root of your issues and the second procedure is more routine than that first one!

    It was a cold (for this time of year), dark day yesterday and the P43 ran a couple of times. It is running again this morning. Supposedly will see a little sun today and should get up to the 60's so this may be the last time. If the humidity is driven out of the air by the change in weather, then I will do the final clean and block up the pipes for the season.

    Yesterday was the perfect day to do a deep clean and wrap the P43 up for the season. Little humdity, warm temp and light breeze. Supposed to get close to 90 tomorrow, so it was time.
