Anyone else getting concerned that Steeler hasn't been here in a month? Definitely concerned, not like him. Like the song "Signs" says I'm alive an doing fine. Been takin' advantage of this off season not having to handle rosters,trades & keepers that needed to be traded. Was sick the 1st week in March,coughed so hard my back started hurting. I think I have another fracture,got x-rays when I went to pain management but won't know for sure until I go on April 24th. The biggest reason me not being here was/is dealing with the back pain I've been having lately.

Yes they did get raided,the latest update was that a couple doctors were writing prescriptions for pain killers to people that really didn't need them. Not sure which doctors were charged cause the news didn't give any names,but there have been changes to how they operate an they added some new doctors.

Time for this old man to shower & get ready for bed,TTYL. Getting old is getting old for me as well. Hoping that with a new life in Florida, I can reverse some of the physical functions that have degenerated due to my own fault, so not expecting any sympathy from anyone. At least you guys have a good excuse. But true "what I used to do all day now takes me all day to do". I'm worn out packing a couple boxes, mentally as well. Just not as disciplined and mentally organized as I once was. And the sleep has been horrible. Go to bed whenever 9 - midnight, wake up 4 hours later, can't go back to sleep, drink water and a cocktail or two to try and go back to sleep for a couple hours at maybe 5 - 8 AM. Not smart, I know. hehe Craig, how's your SIL doing? Walking yet?

Medicare is confusing. I have done lots of research and after figuring it out, its awesome. I got lots of info barraged on me.
Anyone have questions.....caugh looking at anyone about to turn 65 I might be able to answer. I checked all the plans. They are different and there is only one that fits "Your" situation. I found mine.

Well maybe I can't answer questions. haha. Each state is a little different I guess. You should probably ask the people in your state. Sorry. I didn't think of the differences.

Went to Pain Management for my monthly visit yesterday and was seen by a different doctor who is younger. I think I like this new doctor,he really took some time with me an listened to the pain I've been having, had to take a few new xrays to see if anything has changed as to why I'm having so much pain. I'll find out the results when I go next month,not that I wanted to take more pills but he did give me a prescription for MS Cotin (Morphine Sulfate 15 mg that I take once a day).

I spent the day driving my little car that I hardly ever drive. Marlene uses it and puts on about two thousand miles a YEAR. It failed smog so the guy told me I need to drive it about three hundred miles so the computer registers the catalytic converter. So I did. Still failed. The emissions are super clean but the stupid state of California doesn't care. They want the computer to talk about the converter, even though its does nothing to help. Oh well I guess Marlene can walk everywhere now. I guess I'll let her use my truck to shop for groceries.

That MS sounds like some good stuff. Wonder what the street value is on that! If ya get better and have some extra......I'll send you my addy. hahahaha.
