Yes, infusion Is a chemo treatment. Granddaughter helped change the bandage then I had a slice of pizza for dinner with a pint of Jumex pineapple/coconut drink. This morning the bandage is damp and some of the tape doesn't want to stick to my hairy belly. Change it out soon and see what I find on it. It's clear on the outside. Glad we/I got everything caught up before the snow started yesterday, 3 inches on the ground this morning. Haven't heard any traffic on my street since 5:50.

Yesterday I looked over the stuff that will be at the zoom estate auction last night. Not much I care about, about 100 lbs of lead is about it. I pull a container of chili from the freezer, into a pan on the stove at low heat. I've got an infusion session for today and take a shower while waiting. Stepping out of the shower and drying off I feel the feeding tube has fell out of my belly. We know very little about it so Jason is called to take me to ER at 7:30. The doctor said it had pulled out of my stomach and can be put back in. I had plans to talk with doctor today about removing it. The ER doctor removed it. Need a CT to see how things are going inside. All good and released at 12:40 am. West clinic infusion visit started at 9:30 am today with lab work. Visit with doctor was next. I asked how long it will it be before I can eat without leakage. That's hard to say. Eat lightly for a week or more and things should be fine. Hold off on large meals for a while. Watch for leakage and call for help if needed.

The spillways of the big 3 lakes in MS are lined up with people snagging and catching. MDFWP reduced the daily limit to 10 per person on the big 4 lakes. Butla is closed due to outlet tunnel damage and the lake level is super low.

Any plans for a Meet & Greet this year?

Wish I had a reason to drive your way.

Welcome from Horn Lake, MS

Canada geese are everywhere here in DeSoto County, MS. Can't enjoy a day at a park without poop in the shoes.

I'm able to get out and shop for myself more. SuperLo has Boston Butts for $1.49 per lb. They are cut at or near halves which fits in an oval crock pot better. I cooked one Saturday on high for 4 hours, wife said on low over night. Nope I had to dig it out of the pot since it was falling apart. Removed the bone and fat, meat into another crock pot bag. Juice and fat into a container into the fridge. Sunday morning the bag was put back in the crock pot. The fat was spooned off the top of the juice and trashed. 3/4 cup of juice mixed with BBQ sauce was stirred into the meat. Crock pot set on warm for most of the day. At dinner time the meat was super tender. I cooked store bought frozen fried and onion rings, made a pot of baked beans too. The rings were sweat so I had 1 bite. It was the breading, not the onion. The bun was tough so I eat the meat and slaw. Not really a fan of fries unless I have a mustard sauce, out of horse relish sauce. Monday again after the first. Head out to pay utility and doctor bills that I can't pay online. May shop while out too.

Welcome from Horn Lake, MS. In my travels to and from Nashville years ago Dickson was a regular stop along the way. I bought 2 Lee press kits from people that thought they wanted to reload at great prices posted on craigslist.

That's right, plans down the costly drain.

Things went to heck in a hat basket fast this morning. Called my son, I need the Have A Heart animal trap back since there's a raccoon in the attic. Told him I should have everything needed next week so we can start reloading 410 casings. Nope, he sold the shotgun Saturday. Oh well, out about $75 on a mini chop saw and extra blades. Got a check from the guy that's sharing the order with. Thought he was receiving the order then ship me my share. I don't need them anymore.

The infusion was a lot later in the day than I've had in the past and a lot quicker yesterday. Instead of 1 large bag of saline there were 2 smaller ones dripping at once. Then instead of 1 bag of chemo drugs at a time there were 2. Got the wear home pump applied and out the door at 3 pm. I must have napped for a bit. A snort woke me up. I asked the lady seated to me if I snored, just that little snort is all I heard. Looked at the clock, got a 43 minute nap. A lot warmer in the infusion room this time, was able to have blanket on without it plugged in. last infusion in 2 weeks then a ct in 4 weeks. Since on the subject of eating I search for what I want until I find it. In younger life there were 2 companies that made them, Mrs, Weaver and Mrs Drake. Their products could be found in containers and sandwiches. I can find tuna, chicken and pimento cheese salad in most stores but not ham. I asked at all store deli departments about it. One store, SuperLo in Southaven, MS now has it in their fresh made section in containers. I got 1 Sunday and had a sandwich when I got home yesterday. Dang, made with sweet relish, I added some dill relish and it tasted better. Granddad worked at Evergood packing company in years past. He'd bring home meats a few times when they were needed. We made our own ham salad, sausage and hamburger meat with a hand crank grinder. I would guess the sausage and burger were about 95/5. Can't find that mix anywhere now.

I looked online at Harbor Freight for the mini chop saw for $37.99, in stock. Went to the local store in Southaven, MS. Only an older model on display, no back up stock. Looked on ebay. Ordered the new style with 3 year warranty for $5 less, delivery today. Looking online for more spent brass casings I found a few from other state's gun owner website at better prices. 100 444 Marlin and 100 303 Britt from 2 different people for $50 each shipped. Headed to Ballistic Products for fiber wads and patches. Might as well order a pack of primed 410 hulls too.

I'm eating everything that I can get my hands on now, just small bites. Infusion tomorrow, IV removed Wednesday. Do it again in 2 weeks. Soaked red beans Friday night. Made red beans and rice for dinner yesterday. Added chopped onion and chili pepper to the cornbread mix. Baked 56 in the cast iron corn cob pan, got 48 left over along with 4 quarts of beans a 1 quart of rice. I don't mix them until in the bowl.
