Thanks. No reschedule but now they called and said they have switched my appointment from the outpatient location in the professional building (attached to the hospital) and said procedure will now be done in the hospital so enter through the main door and go to the endo department. One of my decision points was to stay out of the main building (for possibly higher “infection” rates). Thby Randalls - Tips and Deals
The nurse called today to confirm my registration and that I will actually be showing up for the procedure. I asked her what the “medium” drug entailed and she said it would be a mix of Versed and Demerol. I told her I blanked on the last inspection, waking to ask “How did it go?” several times to my wife or any unfortunate nurse or doctor that stuck their head in the door. The nurse saiby Randalls - Tips and Deals

OK. It all makes sense. My wife will be with me so she can take notes. I think I will keep the appointment and go for the conscience sedation. Thanks for the info everyone. I will let you know how it comes out in the end (sorry about that one-bummer).by Randalls - Tips and Deals
The nurse said a medium or light drug application should make it possible to answer questions or flag discomfort so my reading says this is good for a more thorough exam and less likelihood of a tear or perf. Kind of leaning that way. We have this type of cancer in our family.by Randalls - Tips and Deals
Just got a call for my scheduled outpatient colorectal cancer exam next week. They are understaffed for anesthesiologists so I have an option to reschedule for an in hospital exam using profocol applied by an anesthesiologist to put my lights out or I can keep the original appointment and go for “medium” sedation where I will be semi-responsive and be able to communicate with the gastrointestby Randalls - Tips and Deals
Nice shots. I did not have my SX50 at the time but was watching a male Cardinal sitting on the bird bath. He jumped down and picked up a raw peanut and flew back up to the edge of the bird bath. His mate landed next to him and he passed the peanut to her. He then hopped back down and grabbed another nut and they both flew off together.

I have all 3 services. If you do have access to Kanopy and/or Hoopla through your local library that is quite the bargain. Those perks generally go un-promoted. Our small town has 6 freebie films per month each. Our daughter's much better off library offers 16 for each streamer per month, and that is for each card holder including the toddler, so not too shabbyby Randalls - Tips and Deals
That should be plenty of speed for several TV sets streaming at the same time, plus surfing, gaming, etc. Make sure your’re getting what you are paying for speed wise with your provider. Also check to see if there is a data cap and track what your usage is to avoid extra charges. Your provider may not have a cap hopefully. Hope this helps.by Randalls - Tips and Deals
If you do decide to use a Tablo dual tuner for OTA they regularly have refurbs on sale for around $70 and you can buy your own external hard drive so best bang for the buck. If I can set one up anyone can and there are no monthly fees required. This ‘lite’ unit is apparently not future proof (atsc 3). See overview below. Also, if you are running t mobile you probably are getting the streamingby Randalls - Tips and Deals
Are all of your TV sets ‘smart’ to accept streamable WiFi? If not you will need to add a streaming device such as a Roku, Apple or Firestick. I would also consider an OTA antenna depending on your location. I use a Tablo which adds 2 OTA tuners and an external hard drive for recording live broadcasts. Tablo has an app for Roku and it will send a WiFi signal to any streamable TV to eliminateby Randalls - Tips and Deals
It definitely sounds like some of the group were dumped including Mooch. We adopted a ‘foundling’ with 1 leg missing, the vet said the surgery was good and it would have been expensive. Noodle was a sweet boy and passed a couple of years ago. We always made up backstories on how these strays arrived at our place, and once a pet translator is invented I intend to ask them.

Used to Drive from Indy to Dauphin Island Al. Leave at midnight and arrive 12 hours later straight down US 65. @ 800 miles. My brother could drive over 1k but that was out west leaving Abq across Texas or Kansas back to the Midwest. We are both too old for that now I think.by Randalls - Tips and Deals
Thanks for that info. I will try to figure it out. The Netgear chat person had a service person contact me but they wanted a “one time access” to my set up and I did not feel comfortable with that as friends have had their network compromised.

I have an open box Nighthawk X4S extender. It did not come with a quick start guide. I am trying to get a signal to my basement to a top floor xfinity router. Anyone have any experience with this? I am not a tech savvy person. I managed to get 2 solid signal lights but I did not see the augmented name of the wifi network. Any advice much appreciated.by Randalls - Tips and Deals
Kind of sad that folks have little recourse to get real financial help with dental issues, but thanks for the replies. I realize it is a money making proposition and the insurance companies have to make a profit, just seems like there should be a better solution in this day and ageby Randalls - Tips and Deals
Kind of they way I was figuring it. Our insurance agent that set up the plan G was sure that it would be a push. The local dentist has a program that is $454 per year that offers 2 exams, 2 simple cleanings, X-rays and a take home whitening kit. They offer a 20 percent discount for this membership. I think I will advise my wife to take this membership and I will plan on going to the local schoby Randalls - Tips and Deals
My wife and I opted for plan G medical. Currently do not have a dental plan. We were advised that most plans offered for dental aren’t of much value due to up front payments and capped benefits.

After doing some research with sites suggested I went with the LaQuinta via direct phone call. They matched the price on the AARP travel page with 10% off. Two rooms with 2 queen size beds and asked for a free roll in crib. If the crib does not show up we can use one of the queen beds as a backup. $134.10 + $21.78 Tax per night Per each so around $310 total.
