I'm alive and well

SO - Where was I in my story  LOL 

OK - I'm not dead yet.  It's been a while and I just got tired of trying to find things to entertain myself word wise -  I was boring myself with my own words. 

How has YOUR summer been.  ME?  AWESOME.  

First there was the Nightwish concert in Chicago 

  And I even got a video

Then a a few weeks later Gus got to go to a Brewer game and he LOVED it 

After that I was diagnosed with dementia  . . . . OH OH oops sorry diabetes . . I always get that mixed up  well - PRE-diabetes which is diabetes lite actually.  I assumed this was a mistake, I mean COMEON  I weigh 172 - how can I have diabetes . . .  but then I started testing my glucose and YUP - guess so.  So I cut out b b b b b b beer (beer is HORRIBLE with so much sugar - my blood REALLY spikes) and white bread and snacks and replaced snacks with nuts and peanuts (which are actually beans) and started on metformin which I have zero issues with (Harvard School of Medicine in a study says it's near a super drug with so many awesome things it can do - better sex, longer life then people NOT taking it even if they do not have diabetes and a ton of heart things and yada yada. . . . anyway) I seem to be getting that "under control" without too much effort (My fasting level is in the 131 range after 4 weeks - my AIC was 7.2% if you MUST know).

THEN last week we went to a Roger Waters concert.  I can now say I saw the FIRST tour of Pink Floyd in the States (the Dark Side tour) and the LAST tour 49 years later

     

Another video 

Meanwhile we FINALLY have our first paperwork done for building a cabin at the tip of Door County right there on the 3rd curve on the left

Access and tree clearing this year and HOPEFULLY building next year.

Next up are camping trips #2 and #3 and right after that the Ghost concert.  

BTW - the people who attend Ghost concerts are not like any band fans I have ever come across.  Fun loving, happy, caring people. I belong to a good number of band facebook pages and Ghost fans are the BEST.   If you want to get a really good feel what it's like to attend one of their "rituals" check out this REALLY good video.  I'm going to try to capture this vibe with my camera (phone) when we attend.

This shows the awesome, whacky, groovy weirdos in the crowd. The show is just an amazing spectacle.
