    Hi again, guys!
    I've been running around like a crazy thing trying to get things done today. Mom's doing better but now both Lee and Amber have this same nasty respiratory crud. Thankfully, Lee went to the doctor this morning. Doctor Klein confirmed my diagnosis of a bacterial respiratory infection and even prescribed the same antibiotic, Levaquin, that I thought he would. Could have saved us the $25 for the doctor's visit even if we couldn't avoid the $44.00 for his meds. ;)

    All kidding aside, Lee's cough sounds pretty nasty, sure hope the meds start helping him feel better soon. Now if I can just keep from getting it. Times like this it actually comes in handy to have an out of control immune system. My body tends to burn out any bug I pick up fairly quickly. Now if it just holds true this time.

    I still haven't had the time to make a new listing of stuff to sell for here yet, I need time to take some pictures. I do have a bunch of stuff listed on Ebay, though, both some more of Lee's mom's jewelry and some comics related stuff. Here they are if you'd like to take a look:

    Well, I'd better go and see if Lee needs anything. Hope that everyone is having a truly wonderful day. :)

    I made myself a cracky 5.08 icon (*points*) yesterday, typically made several variations, only to discover it's been over a year since I last made icons. 0.0 How did that happen?

    what are you trying to tell us, jensen?
    Jensen @ Chicago Con..

    Answering a question about gifts he & Jared give/have given each other:

    "If [...] I see a gadget or a gizmo or something that we want, we just get it."

    BOYS! \o/

    Wow!
    Over twenty three wish lists posted and it was just our first official day of being open! I think that, after today, I'll tend to update the Master Lists over at [info]wish_list at night before I go to bed. That's if I can keep from falling face front into the 'puter, though. :)

    See, insomnia can be a good thing...
    I figured out how to put the [info]wish_list 09 Master Post in the left hand sidebar at the comm. That should make it even easier for people to find one another. Now I'll just have to do my best to keep it up to date. :)

    And... We're off!!!
    Okay everyone, I just made the opening posts for this year's Wish List Comm. We have our tried and true original on LJ as always. Plus, I've made a sister comm for those of you who'd rather stick with Dreamwidth. I'm sorry that I haven't had a chance before now to get things started. At least we're open now and ready to get busy granting all those wishes.

    Here are the two comms:

    LJ Wishlist 09

    DW Wishlist 09

    It might be easiest to stick with one comm if we can but I didn't want to leave anyone behind who might need cheering up this year. So, there you go. Get out there, spread the word, and let your wishes known! :)

    Love you guys!

    Hi guys!
    Just a quick note for now, I'll need to go pick up mom's medicine before I get her and Amber from daycare. Things have still been really crazy busy here. Mom is going to have to have a Cornea transplant for her left eye done. The infection just left too much scar tissue for her to be able to see clearly otherwise. It was scheduled for next Monday, the 23rd, but I just had to cancel it with Dr. Eiferman.

    She has a bad respiratory infection. I was really concerned by how much she's been coughing the last few days so I called both her docs this afternoon. Her respiratory doc, Dr Almasaki, wants her started on a round of Levaquin to try and clear it up before she has any surgery and Dr Eiferman agrees. She sees Dr A on Dec 2nd and we'll see then if it can be rescheduled.

    We had bad news from Lee's dental appointment this morning, too. Since his last visit he's had some bone loss and is showing signs of gum disease. They said he needs to have a deep cleaning done to try and reverse it. It'll have to be done over two visits and the total cost for it is a whooping $900.00. Even after our dental insurance kicks in we'll still be responsible for $500.00 of the total cost.

    He'll have the first appointment the first part of December and then the second visit two weeks later. That will at least give me time to try and get some things sold to cover the cost. It's really lousy timing with mom's health stuff and the upcoming holidays but I'll figure it out somehow.

    I know I'll be putting up more comics and jewelry to sell. Besides mine and mom's and the stuff I got from Jerry, Lee's also given me the jewelry we inherited from Lee's mom. His brother, Sid, recently sent us a box with a lot of really pretty things in it. Especially a lot of pretty Millefiori Murano Italian glass sterling silver jewelry that she collected. I've gotten a few pieces up on EBay and I'll post more of it here as I can get pictures taken of everything. Here's what I've gotten up so far:

    Everyone who'd bought stuff before should have, or be getting their goodies. Thanks so much for your patience while I've been dealing with everything from mom. Well, I'd better go if I'm going to be on time to get the girls after I get mom's antibiotic. Take care and I'll try and check back in later if I can.

    *hugs*

    and the J2 goes ever on..
    Jared & Jensen @ Chicago Con..

    Question: (paraphrased) What would the two of you do if the world were ending?

    Jared: "I'd probably [channel] Travolta: Grease."
    [...]
    Jensen: "I'd probably go more like Olivia Newton-John: Grease."

    And we all know how that turned out. ;D

    BOYS! \o/

    Victor #1167, July 2, 1983
    And now as my final post on the IJ version of Scans Daily, the July 2, 1983 issue of Victor. This title also depended heavily on war stories, but not quite as heavily as Warlord. They do however make the covers.






    At this point, there was a one-page gag strip entitled "Cap'n Hand and his Mutinous Band." It was so mediocre even by the standard of gag strips that I have opted out of showing it.













    Your thoughts, gentlefolk?

    Coming up on Dreamwidth, a story with Thrill-Power! And the new darker and edgier take on a childhood favorite.

    As the sun sets on IJ's scans_daily
    For my last post before the move, I thought I'd post an Amanda Conner commission I found online (and which isn't mine) which encapsulates much of what has made this place so much fun...

    It has Dick Grayson as Robin, it has Spider-Man, it has cute kids, implied violence (and spanking at that!) and the promise of candy... what better image to summarise us? :)

    Monster: "You can see it..."
    Since it seems like a few people are making "last" posts to commemorate the move, I figured I might as well join in. And since it's my last post at InsaneJournal, why not take the material from the final volume of Monster?

    Of course, in a series as full of twists and turns as this one is, you could argue that most scans would be a)inexplicable to people who haven't been following along and are not in possession of some sort of flowchart and/or b) massive spoilers for the entire series. But I don't think this scene is either.
