Surgery went well, guys - but OH MY LORD! After pains are outta this world! And they aren't from where my throat got sliced into, but the odd positions this $&*)%#**^ neck brace pushes me into. And where the brace sits against my hair itches like poison ivy!
Surgeon guy put in two plates, using 6 screws. His after-surgery report was greatly detailed, i.e., "Patient lost approximately 30 ml of blood".
Six weeks of wearing this millstone around my neck is going to make me totally insane. I had been hoping to stay at the 50% level!
I had a nice small light gray/black horn that I was making into a primer horn. It was starting to look good - until this one-year-old Siberian Husky grabbed it off my workbench. I've lost track of the number of items he's made off with. Cruising the back porch and yard often leads to new discoveries. And he thinks nothing of leaping over my Service Dog, Sunny Girl. He IS quite loveable, I'm hoping for deep snow to slow him down a bit. Currently a mix of snow and rain, 33 degrees.
Going to raise my workbenches about two feet, and get me some stilts!
