WELCOME TO DUANE'S DRAWINGS, TANGLE BLOG.......WHERE ZENTANGLES LIVE...

 (only  3  days left until Providence, RI for CZT #28.  Can't wait !!     :-)

Getting ready to go to Providence here.  Making all kinds of last minute preps.  Yesterday afternoon I took my wife in for her first Physical Therapy appointment since her accident where she broke her elbow.  Remember a couple weeks ago when she fell against the wall and went down and on her way down to the floor she broke her elbow?  She is doing a lot better now and finally able to do small things for herself, like opening small packages and some jars/ bottles, etc.  I still have to do some of those for her....while I am gone I am having to depend on our 20 year old daughter to help her mother get by.

I just saw today where TSA, airport security, is testing a new program where they will use fingerprint to ID people at the airport gates instead of a boarding pass.  But only in Denver and Atlanta, so I won't be involved in that mess.  I am going from here (Portland, Or) to Philadelphia and then on to Providence.  I just hope I can get my syringes, needles, and insulin drugs past TSA without them pulling me out of the line and delay me.  Oh well, such is life.  To quote one of my favorite Comedians,  "That's our lot in life; it's not a lot but its our life."           Phyllis Diller.

Be well, everyone.

Duane.

  1. Have a wonderful time, Duane! I haven't traveled by air since I retired, but as long as I kept my insulin in it's original package and had the syringes and needles in a container that was marked appropriately (I use insulin pens and just the twist on needles) I didn't have a problem, but that was a few years ago. I hope that it goes easy for you. I hope you can take lots of pics at the training and we want a full report when you return home. :)

  2. Duane, I know you will have a great time and I know we all will want to hear the stories. :-D I think you'll do fine with the TSA. Maybe take a note from the doc? And do as LezliB says. And I'm sure your daughter will do just fine with her mother for the time you'll be gone. Have a great trip!!!!
