We were driving to the grocery store this evening and saw the "Oscar Meyer Weiner Mobile" at the intersection of Kenoshia and Lynn Lane in Broken Arrow. Sorry the photo is so dark, it was just after sun set. Joe
Cynthia and I are in the process of buying a 30x56 repo manufactured home from a dealer in Tulsa. The previous owner was a older couple and they took very good care of it, no holes in the walls. It has new carpet and outside paint. Our apartment is about 950sqft and the house is huge 1680sqft. We will probably get lost in it. LOL. There are three bedrooms, two bathrooms and large kitchen. The bedroom that the layout will go in is the same size as the one in our apartment. We are looking at a nice mobile home park in Bixby Ok that has several double wide lots open. The crime rate in Bixby is lower than Broken Arrow, there was three pickup trucks stolen from our apartment complex in the last two weeks alone. Only things that happen in the Bixby park is mostly medical emergency responders because of the older folks. Hopefully there will be two more old timers there in a couple of months. Joe
Sounds exciting and looks to be a beautiful home to boot, Joe! Hoping for the best for you and Cynthia! Andre
Thank you guys!!! We are excited about it and we have to be patient because it could take a couple of months. Joe
Some good friends of ours moved from Broken Arrow to rural Morris OK so Cynthia and I went to see them this afternoon. While we were in the area we went to Okmulgee to check out a mobile home park, it wasn't what we were hoping for. So far the one in Bixby is the best park we've seen. We are looking at a different home, it's a 16x80 single wide 1280sqft. The switch is because of financial reasons and it's a little smaller but just as nice. Definitely a step up from our approximately 950sqft apartment. The layout will have to be modified quite a bit to fit in a narrower but longer bedroom. That's why I have the layout built in modules in case of a move. We already did that once about two and half years ago. The only thing I had to change was cut off one foot from module 06. Rest is still the same, easiest job on the layout. Joe
Cynthia and I went to the mobile home dealership yesterday and measured the three bedrooms along with photos. As it turns out the bedroom that the layout will go in is about the same size as the one in our apartment. Unfortunately I won't be able to include the Arkansas River bridge as hoped, real bummer. Joe
Cynthia made a new Christmas wreath and I surprised her yesterday night by setting up our Christmas tree while she was in the shower. Wow was she shocked, made some good points on the home front. LOL Joe
I have some bad news. Cynthia was walking across the living room and collapsed, hit her head on the edge of a cabinet. Called 911 and they took her to St. Francis South in Broken Arrow where they put her on a ventilator plus two more tubes, sedated and a Central Line. Two brain scans showed a small amount of bleeding to the back of her head. She was transferred from the Broken Arrow hospital to St Francis hospital in Tulsa ICU Unit where she had a third brain scan. It showed no change, thankfully it hasn't been increasing. Joe
Thank you guys!!! Your thoughts and prayers are greatly appreciated. Cynthia is going to have another brain scan around noon. Joe
Thank you for your thoughts and prayers!!! It means a great deal. I talked to the neurosurgeon this morning and he said that Cynthia will be in the hospital for a week or two. They are going to start reducing the sedation and hopefully remove the ventilator today or tomorrow. Cynthia is a strong person and that helps, every once in awhile she will particularly wake up and fight the tube. Joe
Cynthia had a fourth brain scan today and it shows that the bleeding has stopped, which is great news. Joe
