Brooklyn Back When - Open Thread

Patsy. ...love the picture of Gino and Gavin!!!!

Hello to all...

Good afternoon friends
Hot hot hot
Going up to 93 degrees today!!
Ugh!! I hate the heat.
Enjoy your day & stay cool!!!

Yes Judy Robert Lagrecga send me a message late last night. Did not want to post anything until the family did.
My condolences to Our Dear Jerry Largecga, Jeanette Lagrecga, Marie Lagrecga and Rosie's family. ( Her children and grandchildren)  She will be missed at our next reunion.  She always looked forward to coming every time we had one.  Will be missed much.

Good morning friends
Weather great!!!
Going for a pedicure.
C u all later.

Here I am Patsy, It's a beautiful sunny warm day here in Sun City Center Florida. Played Bunco last night after dinner. Carol managed to win a few "Bunco Bucks". They can be used at the bar or hairdressers. Think we will skip tonight's movie. Does not look all that interesting. Called "Bernie". Tomorrow I will be taking part in two Church Services. Here and at a neighboring Independent Living place.

Talked to my Cardiologists yesterday. They answered some of my questions about the drug they want me to try. I will have to go into the Hospital for three days while they check the good and bad effects of the drug. It is called Tikosyn. It would replace the Sotolal I am on now. I would be on continuous EKG tests as well as Kidney function tests. Evidently a very strong drug. I need it to stop the A-Flutter I am in almost all the time. Not looking forward to being Hospitalized but it is the only way you can be put on Tikosyn. Not sure when I will do this but it would be shortly. Being in A-Flutter 99.7& of the time is not too good!

Good morning friends
Went to my nieces grad party yesterday
Here in Brooklyn
Great backyard party
Lots of fun!!
Hope everyone has a great day!

Good Morning All,
You would not believe how busy a retired person can get. Unfortunately most of the time it is for Medical reasons. Waiting for a call back from one Doctors Office to confirm me going into the Hospital for tests on a different heart medication. I have to squeeze it in between the regular appointments Carol and I have with Doctors and Labs. Meanwhile, I got an e-mail from the fellow who runs the Church services I am involved with. He wants me to write and present the Sermon on a Sunday in August when he will be away. All I will get is a Bible reference and I will have to write the sermon based on that reference. Quite a challenge but I think I can handle it.

One grandson graduated from College a few weeks ago and one graduates from H.S. this week. Guess they are not in diapers anymore!!!! Time sure flies.
Weather here has been pretty pleasant. Sunny in the high 80's every day. Some thunderstorms in the evening. So long.

Anna...wishing you all the best with your move.

Warren ...feel better

Hi to Patsy, Debbie, Terry and Donna

Tomorrow home in backyard
Grilling & maybe in the pool if hot enough.

Good Morning all, you too Gavin,

Unless one of my Grandchildren gets married, we are out of the baby business. A great Grandchild would be a novelty!!!!

My Hospital arrangements are just about finalized. It will be a 3-3&1/2 day stay.
The main purpose is to see if my system will accept the new heart pill the Doctors are proposing I take to clear up my hearts A-Flutter. It will be in a couple of weeks.

Been quite warm here. Temps in the 90's every day. Patsy, You would not find it hard to pick a day to swim here. Either in the Ocean (Gulf) or in a pool. Anna, pack your bathing suit at the top of the suitcase. You will need it right away when you get down here.
