Feels like 109
 

According to my weather app on the iPhone, it feels like 109 and we’re not talking about Kennedy's PT boat. And, I was told that all District Rec centers have once again cancelled all large meetings until further notice. Plus, my open heart surgery to repair my mitral valve is now only 15 days away. What a time to be living in. On the positive side, I have 14 more days of pickleball playing before I take a several months break and will have several good reasons to stay inside. Thank goodness my wife and I are still on speaking terms.

Best wishes for a positive surgical result.

All the best to you Twoplanekid. We'll keep a positive thought out for you!

About 4:00 I heard that the heat index was 111.

This is Florida, it's the summer time. What do you expect?

It's surprising that every year people are commenting on this like it's some kind of new phenomenon.

Yeah, but we get to write home to tell them how hot it is, and they all say “WOW”! ;-)

Very true when our grandkids tell us how hot it is in DC at 85 tell them to check the weather and we do get some sympathy.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery. BTW I am not very busy now could I do the surgery? Always wanted to do one and after seeing it done on TV seems fairly easy.

I hope that you have a successful surgery and a quick and full recovery

this getting older stuff isn't all that we had planned on....

Thinking of you during surgery.
 

We'll be thinking good thoughts and saying a prayer for a great outcome from surgery. Get your sports in while you can before surgery because you will likely be house bound for a while.
As for being on speaking terms with your wife, I'm guessing you are on way better terms than that.
Oh! As for Stu asking if he could do the surgery, don't let him. I'm not sure its him, but someone here has the nickname of "shaky".
Just kidding. Best wishes on a speedy recovery and return to all the things you love.

Best Wishes for a speedy recovery & we look forward to your posts, post surgery. God Bless!

Quit checking your phone it’s probably one of the reasons you are having heart issues!
Good luck.

Best wishes on your upcoming surgery.

Good luck.. stay positive

Doesn't seem like you should be playing Pickle Ball with heart problems?

thats why I use the old fashion thermometer hanging in the yard. gives me the temp here, not miles away and I don't care about the humidity effect on the numbers.
