Savings Bonds

First, haven't heard anything from my brother.  I assume nothing has changed.

And Tricia is doing well.

A few months ago I found two $50 savings bonds in Marshall's name.  So today I decided to cash them in.  I went to my bank and they wouldn't cash them.  They said I needed to go to the courthouse and get myself appointed as a Personal Representative.  So I went to the courthouse for Adams County and they said they didn't know what I was talking about.  They said I had to hire an attorney.  So I threw them away.  I figured a lawyer would cost way more than $100!!

When I was going to the courthouse I noticed that the license plates on the motorcycle had expired last July.  So I went to the DMV and renewed them.  I had to pay a $100 late fee.  Good grief.

And over the weekend I bought one of those Ring Doorbells and I love it!  I can check on my house with my iPhone no matter where I am.  And I can talk to anyone on my patio from wherever I am.  It is really cool.  It even records/films me whenever I take Mia out.

I'm trying to learn this new way of eating to keep the pancreatitis at bay and so far so good.  I exercise every day, too.  Trying to do everything the doctors told me to do.

My bone density test shows that I have osteopenia, the precursor to osteoporosis (bummer).  The ophthalmologist says my eyes are in good shape (no macular degeneration).  The ear doctor says I have better hearing than most of his patients (that was cool news).

Brother back in ER

Yesterday we got word that my brother fell again and was taken to the ER.  Has a gash in his head.  Lost feeling in one foot so they moved him to ICU.  And he will be going through detox, too.

Then there's Tricia:
