Title: Arnie
Post by: classicrockgriller on January 31, 2011, 04:41:05 PM
We were in the Chat Room last nite and I ask if anyone had seen Arnie on

line. Everyone said NO and someone checked and his last log on was the 25th.

So I called him last nite and was told he was asleep. I get a phone call back from

his number today and his wife told me to call him at a different number. She said

he was in the Hospital and for me to call him. I got to talk to him and he said last

Tuesday he moved the car from the garage and the drive is on an incline. When he

stepped out of the car the driveway was icy and his footing gave way. Down he went

and an amblance took him to the Hospital and he has been there every since. Said he

has nothing broken, just bruised up pretty bad. He thinks he will get out in a cple days.

He did. Being in a hospital for a week isn't a vacation and he sounded

a little down about that. Says he misses his computer. Gonna give Him

a call back tomorrow and check up on Him.

Just talked with him a few minutes ago. 

He's looking forward to being released today, and wants to get home and settled before the brunt of the monster storm hits later today/tonight.  He said hopes he can find his way here tonight.

Be good to know he's out of the jab and stab hostel and doing well.

Arnie I am so sorry I missed this completely.  Mr told me about it tonight at dinner.
No broken bones?  Everything is getting better?  I can't imagine being cooped up in a hospital for an entire week.
Of course, nothing like going home in an ICE storm to get the blood circulating again......
Take care of yourself!  This winter weather could stop any time now, and I don't think anyone would miss it....

Thanks again to all of you for your well wishes.

I'm doing better though still pretty sore.  The physical therapy lady is coming over again today.  She gave me exercises to do that I have been faithfully doing.  I hope she doesn't have to come back any more.

I'm not sure if I have an OBS any more.  There was a huge column of ice on the corner of the house.  It finally let go and the OBS was in the way.  I still have 2 1/2 - 3 feet of ice and snow on the deck so I can't get out to check on it for some time.

Oh sh...  uh,  ... Oh Oh !

Dang Arnie, that sucks!

I'll keep my finger crossed.
Title: Re: Arnie
Post by: OU812 on February 11, 2011, 09:10:26 AM
That huge column of ice bites.

Hopefully if theres any damage on the OBS its only cosmetic.

I have found if you give 100% to that PT you get better faster, been there done that.  ;D
Title: Re: Arnie
Post by: Habanero Smoker on February 11, 2011, 01:00:48 PM
Ice falling from the roof and hitting the Bradley has happened to me a couple of times. Each time it hit directly on top of the cabinet with no damage other then breaking the knob off the vent. The other problem was that each time it ripped the cover. This weekend you should have someone place a 33 gallon garbage bag over it until it can be replaced. It's just the right size that will not blow off, but using a bungee cord would be added insurance.

Nope.  It'll probably be a while.  Still having some difficulty just walking around the house.

The snow is receding some.  I can see the left extension shelf is broken off my Weber and that's just from the snow load.  >:(

We're supposed to have warmer weather later in the week before it gets cold again so more snow should melt off.

Thanks TR.

CRG - She's 55 and a real nice lady.  I had her discharge me last Friday.  I have two pages of exercises to do on my own and I am faithfully doing them.  I have noticed some improvement.

Thanks again all.
