Friday it looks like still more flooding and rain.  Yesterday we had water running over the curb and down the driveway but the work I did held, water did not get in the garage    but hit the top of the speed bump in front of the garage door

South Dakota is under 50% chance of tornado  WOW   cant wait    

Everyone travel safely and be aware of the conditions ahead

Got my +2" OEM styled windshield, lowers, rain gear.  As long as I can see, no problem.  When it gets tough to see, I'm under the next overpass, or having a bottle of agua at the next exit. 

Just checked Spearfish forecast for the week of IZ.  2 days less than 50% chance of rain.  But, 100% chance of a good time!!

Had a bit of a scare on Saturday.  Woke up at 4:30 with left flank pain and knew it was a kidney stone.  took 2 percoset, nothing.  Took one more, nothing.  When 3 gave me no relief, I thought I was in trouble so drove myself and son to the hospital, having to stop at every freaking light between the house and the ER.   :ticked off:

A couple rounds of morphine and they sent me home.  6mm stone right near the bladder.  On the borderline of self passing.  Went home and drank and sometime later that evening I felt the twinge of the stone passing into the bladder and it was all over.  After 14 hours, No more pain, heart rate and BP back to normal.  Like it never even happened.

I know I'm eventually gonna get another stone.  I have a 10 year collection of 3 decent sized and a couple smaller ones.  Now it's a matter if I can just pass them on my own.  Last one that required intervention, about 6 years ago, had me out of action for over 2 weeks. and this one was with IZ only a week away. 

Whew!
