I had a big scare last night that almost gave me a heart attack. I was taking a shower, and I heard Dale scream louder than I have ever heard her scream. I thought someone was killing her. I ran in there and she was in so much pain that she couldn't stand, breathe or move her mouth. I didn't...

I absolutely love that. I did buy milk today just because I needed milk and I will bake bread. :biggrin:

We are invited out tonight for dinner, but I want to make Manhattan Clam Chowder tomorrow night. I went to the supermarket for the Chowder stuff, and I forgot that we are supposed to get a huge snowstorm tomorrow into Monday with maybe 50MPH winds. It's a Nor'easter, and they predict 10 to 18"...

Diana, black linguine and clams is my favorite dish. I also like stuffed calamari And anything with clams This is for chowder Also love oysters. :) As you probably do.

Diana, that is one reason I get up about 5:00 every morning. I go on my walk then come back and start building something or just designing. The designing takes far more time than building. I keep pencils around and in my car for when an inspiration hits me so I can draw it. If Dale is...

So I completed this very cool Steampunk piece a week ago, and I think I'm going to keep it for myself. I have to "eliminate" another piece first, so Dale doesn't throw me out. And just now, I acquired another vintage glass dome, so I started building another one. I live to build. I...

Diana. Thank you. Our Daughter called me to tell me to wrap bubble wrap around myself just for that reason. I already had 39 surgeries for breaks and tears and that is worse for Dale than it is for me. :confused: Our Daughter Jodi and Grand Daughter Greta

Hello, this is Dale, Paul's wife. Thank you all so much for your good wishes and concerns. Paul has been keeping me updated on all your posts. I truly appreciate all the good wishes and prayers. Unfortunately, this is a chronic condition for many years and occasionally it rears its ugly head at...

Bad day. Unfortunately. Dale's pain is coming back. We don't know what to do yet. She is taking medication but that just makes you depressed and tired.

They do multiply all over the place. Mine grew the size of a big grapefruit, then split into 4 or 5 smaller ones that stuck themselves to rocks.

I just picked up a smallish Royal Gramma and a 5" Colt Coral. I can't get a picture of the fish yet because he is in a hole and I can't see him yet. But he should come out today to eat some worms. I don't know why I got the Colt Coral, as I have them growing wild all over my tank.

Not bad at all. I am thrilled. :)

Happy Valentines Day. :) I think my reef is 55 years old today. It could be 56. I need to do some math. :unsure: I know it's still luck that my fish don't get any of these silly diseases but in another 48 yeas or so, when it's 100. Maybe it will mean my system works. :eek2: We went out...

This morning, beach walk. Look at that iceberg that broke off. It is 2' thick.

I'm looking at my tank and feeling good. Everything looks extremely healthy and is doing what they are supposed to do. I don't know how many fish I have, but it's too many. Even though I want more, it's hard to find smallish, interesting fish anymore. All you see is stupid tangs, clownfish...

Bad day two days ago. I almost had a fist fight with the building Manager here. It's a long story but he is about 8" taller than me and has about 150 pounds on me and is about 20 years younger. I rarely lose my temper and this has only happened twice since I got home from Vietnam. The last...

Good Morning Diana. Thank you. Dale is better but she is feeling some twinges so I pray it isn't coming back. My ankle hurts but not much. I bought one of those silly ankle supports and hopefully it will heal itself. I have to walk in the mornings, it's how I keep my weight off. I lost 35...

This week I received my tax forms from Amazon that tells me how much my two books earned. Not much because they have a limited audience and I wrote my fish book about 15 years ago and my Vietnam experience book a year ago. Also, when a book sells as a Kindle book, I only get pennies for every...

Unfortunately, I won't be walking this icy morning as I have a Sissy, Girly affliction. Since the cold and snow started, I have been walking in snow Sorel boots. They are great for the cold and snow, but they are not exactly hiking boots and my legs, especially my shins are worn out or...
