Its been a long time...since I wrote anything.

I am still here.

Harv... that is me on aex301,

Not much happening... health is doing ok. I had to change insurances due to a carrier change. So, I will have to see when I get my paperwork if all of my doctors are on the new network.

The house is coming along ...and I rented my old home out to a guy who is the business manager for the symphony here. Keep it in the family I guess. I did give him a very good deal, on having the house.

Work is maxing out, I have about two months left as Commissioner of Public Safety and then I will return to being the Director of Public Works. Its going to be good...... I hope....allow me more time to get back to a routine.

Not much else...

Well I haven't been doing what I said I was going to do...that is blog.

Work is ok... just working a lot... with all my responsibilities and the two major hats I am wearing..sometimes it gets a lil overwhelming.

Then there is the political aspects of the upcoming election for mayor. The election is the first Saturday in October, 2010. Hope the M wins.

On the health front, I have been experiencing some lower back pain. I am going to my primary care doctor next week, request a PET Scan to determine if my cancer has spread outside of the capsule.... ie prostate gland. My Dr in San Antonio and I discussed the likelihood of this occurring, in his opinion, it was a very slim chance, but with my luck... you never know.

I have my fears of the cancer, like anyone else, on one hand, I try not to let it control my life. I go on about my everyday business and care for my work as always. On the other hand there is a nagging in the back of my mind that says I need to have the operation. The Dr says no, lets hold off. it is very slow growing, I hope the PET Scan comes out good.

Facing the facts is another cause of concern for me. I know that the operation is only as good as the doctor using the knife..the nerve sparing procedure oh and there is the di vinici knife robotic arm machine....but its a human operating it too..it just comes down to the doctor and his skill.

The fact remains that there will be no more ejaculation, there will be no more sensation from the prostate cause there will be no prostate, the penis is shorten by 30 % on the average due to the urethra beginning cut. There could be short term or long term leakage... you get to piss on your self if you hit a bump in the road in your pick up truck.

I am told one must develop a mental organism.. that is what the doctor told me .... hmmm!!!

So, with 510 employees, two divisions to take care of, looming possible prostate surgery on my lil small mind... I am just plotting along like an old mule....an old gray mule at that...

Thanks for listening to me....
