Spring.....Glorious Spring



While I do love the newly green grass, the blooming tees and flowers and the cavorting of all the little baby critters, spring does not like me. Spring is usually known to me as zombie-time.

Spring has historically, both for myself and others that I know with Fibro, one of the worst times of the year. You would think going from the cold temperatures of winter to the warmer weather of spring would be beneficial, but it just the opposite. Perhaps there is an underlying allergic reaction in play, with all the blooming going on, but whatever the cause, it really takes its toll.

Wake me up when its summer.

Please bear with me while my body tries to adjust , postings will be at a minimum (and boring) during the next few weeks. Its pretty challenging to write a blog when you can’t finish the sentences you start………..the best way I can think of to describe it would be to take a couple extra doses of Benadryl, and

Oh, I forgot what I was going to say..........

See, my point exactly! Uhhh, what WAS my point??

Or this fine example: You know the feeling when you go into another room to get/so/eat something and you get there and forgot why you are there?? (OK, I admit I NEVER forget to eat something!). Its that feeling, but only at the end of every sentence.

Now where was I??

So yesterday, after a long delay, (would it be any other way?) we finally got loaded with our two spools of cable bound for the port of Houston, and then, ultimately Ecuador. FYI, each of those spools weighs in at around 16,400 pounds, and a little over 10 feet high.

Here is a brief synopsis of our trip so far:
Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, Texas. The End.

Oh, and thanks to the dude that trotted his horse across the road right in front of us, I'll be needing that new box of Miss Clairol now. I know all y'all in your cars and pickups are always trying to beat the truck out, but on a horse?? C'mon now, I think your odds are significantly against you on that one. Get with the program. I thought I was bad.

Now be a dear and hand me that gallon of Mountain Dew , would ya? And enjoy that sunshine!!
