Only seeing ticker scores of the Yankee games. That game might finish before the Houston one. 🤯

 

Here in the states, the Yankee game is supposed to be on TBS but has been mover to TNT since Seattle & Houston decided to play 2 games for the price of 1. 😆

We are now into the 16th inning. Turns out it is smoke from a forest fire south of Seattle.

I believe this is the longest scoreless post season game in mlb history.

In 1946 an in season game was scoreless for 19 innings but called on account of darkness.

I'm not sure if this is good pitching or terrible hitters.........

Just about all meat is “edible” if it’s fried right.  🙂

 

I had fried alligator once when I was in Louisiana but it was more fried breading than actual alligator. It was at a chain restaurant - maybe Landrys or Saltgrass - so it probably wasn't representative of what actual fried alligator tastes like

Yes, Jim's was laparoscopically removed also.  How long ago did you have your surgery?  Did it take a long time to heal?

Laproscopic surgeries have a much shorter recovery time compared to when the abdomen had to be opened up.

Things we did today. 
 

1) Put away all the outside patio furniture.

 

2) Went for family photos, most likely for Christmas Cards. 
 

These are our photos of the backdrops to where they were taken. Minutes from our house. You all might get to see a photo early.

I think great pitching

Terrible hitters make pitchers look great !

 

I think I would hate going to a baseball game where there were 40 strikeouts.... 😲

Hello my dear friends.  Jim and I got home Thursday evening from Halifax.  I've been too exhausted to read  any posts, or write until this evening.  I know the last time I'd posted was after having our lobster roll in Bar Harbor.  The next day we were in Portland and had a much better lobstah roll, along with excellent chowda.  That evening after having dinner in the Dining room, Jim started to feel uncomfortable.  We went back to the room and he just couldn't get comfortable....by 2:00 a.m., he said he had to go to Medical, since he was in too much pain.  The Doctor did some bloodwork and put him on an IV to hydrate him, and gave him some pain medicine.   We were scheduled to be in St. John in the morning, and the doctor advised us to get off the ship and go to the hospital there, so around 4:30 am I went to our room and packed everything up.  Jim came back upstairs around 6:30 and said we're to be back at Medical for 8:00 debarkation.  The Paramedics came on board and took Jim and I to the hospital.  Several tests were performed, and the Doctor felt it was Jim's Gallbladder.  The Doctor said it should come out.  Jim wanted to get back on the ship and thought he'd get it taken care of once the cruise was over, so we got back onto the ship.  Bad idea, since the next day we were at Sea, he wound up in the Infirmary hooked up to another IV.  Halifax was our next stop, and it became our home for the next week.   That was last Thursday.  Jim was taken to the ER and by evening was finally admitted.  Emergency surgery was performed early Friday morning.  Excellent care was given to Jim while there.  

 

 

 

My goodness, I sorry to read about your adventures but so happy that things went as good as they could go. Not exactly the visit to Canada you expected but glad my fellow “brothers and sisters” took great care of you both.

If they were terrible hitters would they not always be terrible hitters not just in this game ?

[Ocean Boy]

The fireworks were pretty spectacular and filled with the ones that make your insides vibrate.

Appendix, must not be very large. I believe mine was taken out through my belly button, does that sound correct?

The appendix varies in length from person to person. Four inches is maybe about average for ones that I've seen. It is more likely that the incision was made just under your belly button.

Maybe it was made just inside of the rim.

Probably.............all I know it doesn't look like I had a C-section......lol

@Luckynana I'm so sorry that you and hubby had to cut your cruise short and deal with all of that hassle!  Glad to hear that the medical folks on the ship and in Canada took good care of him!

My appendectomy scar from the early 1980s is pretty much invisible these days, even though it was several inches long. 

 

Laparoscopic surgery is sooooooo much easier to recover from than the old "stick your hands inside the patient" type!

[brillohead]

Crap, just noticed that I have to update my signature.... do I try to remember to do it every week, or just wait until December and update the whole thing then?
