Good day today

Hey Y'all,

Had a good day today. Me and our friend we are staying with rode to Augusta to the VA. I picked up my meds and got a flu vacination shot. Everything worked out and was in order when I got there, so we didn't have to spend a lot of time. It was a enjoyable trip.

C went with our friend we are staying with (there are two of them) to go with J for her doctors appointment. After that they went to Atlanta because our friends sister was having a baby. They got to see a newborn little girl.We came home and went out for some excellent mexican food. Aww man it was great! I am stuffed like pinata. If you were to hit me with a stick I would explode!

Now we are back and relaxing. I may even get in bed at a decent hour again tonight.

Y'all take it easy!

sleepless

Hey Y'all,

I got to bed at 7:30 this morning and got up at 10:30. Not a lot of sleep. I am going to sleep good tonight. I am looking forwards to that bed upstairs here at our friends house.

C went to her doctors appointment. It took her damn near all day. She was exhausted when she got back. She had stopped by the grocery store on the way back, so we had a bite to eat when she got here. We sat up and visited for awhile and she went upstairs and laid down. I came up a hour or two later and got a shower. After I got out of the shower I made her get up so she would be able to sleep later on tonight.

We are relaxing and waiting for our friend to get home from work so we can visit.

Y'all take it easy!

Made it up to north Ga

Hey Y'all,

We made it up to north Ga safe and sound. It was a rough trip up. I was very sleepy and just wanted to get to my destination and see my friends. No matter how tired I am, I always make time for people.

We went to the auction and had a good time. Bought a few things. Not much thou. C and I both agree that we have enough stuff. We came back to our friends house we are staying at and got to visit with our friend for a little bit before she went to bed. The house was quiet and she had her shower and was retiring for the evening, but she made time for us. We are fortunate to have good friends. They can be hard to come by sometimes.

Well it's late and C has done gone to bed. I need to get going.

Cheers!

Whacka whacka moyw moyw

Hey Y'all,

The aliens are coming to get us and control us thru our minds. I took some aluminum foil and wrapped it around my hard hat to keep the mind sucking rays from getting to me. I should be fine. Are you prepared? OK I'm just pulling your leg. There are people in the world that believe just that and making a helmet is what your supposed to do. NOT ON MY WATCH!

Went to South Carolina and picked up cigarettes before we took off to north Ga again so we don't run out. They are way expensive up there for GA. 50 bucks a carton for Marlboro's. I can get a carton of Marlboro's in South Carolina for 33 bucks. Unfortunately since Marlboro's came off special, I am smoking pall malls. They are only 25 bucks a carton. Damn it's expensive to smoke these days.

On the way back we stopped at wal mart and picked up some things. We came home and then went to our friends house so C could cut their grand kids hair. We had McDonald's for supper and brought it home. We are at home now and relaxing and getting ready for this trip in the morning.

Y'all take it easy!

Swamp land

Hey Y'all,

I am tired. I hung out with some friends of mine and did a lot of standing. My back and feet and knees are killing me. I have run out of one of my pain meds and will be running out of the other soon. I can't get any of my pain meds till Wednesday.

I went to my nephews 1 year old birthday party. I didn't get to see my brother or sister in law because they had already left. I was looking forwards to it. By the time I got there K was just about tuckered out. My niece had some really good pictures of him made. S if you are reading this I would like one!

We are home relaxing now. K has gone out to a friends house. She got off restriction today and is loving it.

B got her van back from the mechanic today. There are some things that still have to be done to it next week that she will have to bring it back to him to be fixed. It's nothing special but it is a ride. Just like all of us " you have to start somewhere".

Well Y'all Take it easy!

Life in da swamp

Hey Y'all,

I was sittin' at home this evening minding my own business sitting at the computer on the kitchen table. I could hear a whole bunch of blacks ganging up outside my house but I couldn't see them. I have a crack in the mini blinds where I can peep out. I saw one of them walk up to the trailer and he banged on the side of the trailer. I grabbed the shotgun, pumped it and hollered out, WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT! He said there's a rattle snake in your yard. I opened the door and walked out to where everyone was and blowed the rattler to bits. It was a big one. I blowed it's head and rattles off cause he was coiled up ready to strike when I shot it. It was a good 3 feet long. They get bigger around here.

I am heating up pot pies for supper. Getting ready to chow down.

What day is it?

Hey Y'all,

Until today I had pretty much stayed up round the clock except for naps here and there. I may have got 4 hours of sleep today but it was broken up. Needless to say I have been out of it. Tonight I am going to get some decent sleep.

The last two days have been a blur and I don't remember a lot. I know terminix came to the house yesterday and my friend mowed the grass today. I have been in and out of sleep. I got my laptop back from the shop today and it is running like a champ. It had a bad memory card for the RAM in it.

Well I don't have a lot to tell today. Hope everyone is doing well.

Take it easy!

Tuesdays gone with the wind

Hey Y'all,

Today was a good day and sad in some ways. One good part is I took B to the drivers licence place and she now is a legal driver. The sad part is we went out looking for cars for her. She has found out the bad news about getting a loan (we won't co sign for her) I took her to a place that could put her in a car with little down (a lot to her) but then she is up against the insurance battle. They are basically bending her over and breaking it off in her ass because she is a young inexperienced driver that has to have full coverage because she would be getting the car financed. It's heartbreaking for her. I registered her as a driver on my insurance so she can drive our vehicles which is costing me a good little chunk of change. That's the most help I can give her. It's hard for young people now days. It was tough for me when I was young, but not this bad as I remember.

C and I had a very enjoyable supper with K this evening. We went to one of the local restaurants and it was very pleasant. I enjoy spending time with my daughter when it's a pleasant evening. She is still grounded for some trouble she got into with us, but we gave her phone back to her. She turned over a new leaf with her attitude and I think she gets the point of what we are trying to teach her so We gave her phone back. She isn't totally off the hook and will spending time at home for a few days. She is a good kid, just normal teen crap.

We came home and had a pleasant evening relaxing and now it's quiet in the house except for TVs going in the bed rooms and the cats chasing after each other.

Oh by the way. We live in the deep south and are not affected by all the flooding going on up north in middle and north Ga and Tenn. We could probably use a little rain.

Y'all take it easy!

*yawn*

Hey Y'all,

I just came back from DQ and picking up some supper. C is watching army wives. About the only thing we did today besides eat is go to the flea market. C needed to pick up a couple of chargers for her and K's cell phone. We saw T and M there. We met up at the waffle house and enjoyed some time visiting.

Well Y'll take it sleazy!

Wango Tango

Hey Y'all,
Today was a blur. I don't remember much of what I did today if anything. I know I went out to eat at a new restaurant in town and the service was horrible. I won't be going back. I did a lot of napping.

Went to club church tonight. It was a good meeting with all the brothers there. We had KFC. I tried their grilled and had some original recipe. I think I'll stick with the original recipe.

We are home now and relaxing. I'm kind of tired. Looking forwards to some sleep tonight.

Take Care!

Odd day

Hey Y'all,

I got up early this morning for a appointment. C and I went to that and then came back home. I caught a good long nap with C taking my calls so I could sleep. This afternoon we had to go back out to get a copy of the deed for my dads house that was difficult to find. My brother had got the run around trying to deal with the local clerk of court and tax assessors people. I got fortunate and found somebody at the clerks office that was real motivated and willing to help. In about 15 minutes I had a certified copy of the "lost" deed. It worked out great!

C and I had supper at the local restaurant. We had gone by the auction and looked around. We didn't see anything that we couldn't live without so we left. I like the auction up in north Ga better than the local one here.

We are home relaxing now. I enjoyed a phone call with a friend of mine out in Texas and it has just been a pleasant evening.

Well Y'all, Take 'em greasy!

Back home again

Hey Y'all,

Made it back home around noon. We are both wore slap out. Didn't do much today. The trip back was rough with both of us barley staying awake. C drove most of the way. I drove part of the way and she made the rest of the trip home. We left early when it was still dark and raining.

We went out to supper tonight as a family. I had a bowl of oyster stew. We came home while the girls went out. We are all back home now.

I have to get up early for a appointment out of town. Hopefully I can get to bed at a decent hour.

Well Y'all take it easy!

UGH

Hey Y'all,

I feel like shit. I think I am coming down with a cold or the flu.

C went to her appointment with the VA. She got a new prescription for her glasses. She has to come back soon and pick them up.

I want to come home and stay. In some ways I feel like life has spun out of control here lately. I am ready to get things back to the home front. I'm tired.

J came over today and her and mom got stuff for the baby shower. We all had lunch before they went shopping. They came back and we hung out at the motel room. After a little while I went to wal mart and picked up pot pies for me and C. J left soon after I got back. She called when she got home and made it safe.

Well it's late and C has gone to bed.

Made it to north Ga

Hey Y'all,

We made it up to north Ga safe and sound. I didn't post last night because we went to the auction up here and I was wiped out when we came in.

C met with J and her friends mom and they made the plans for a baby shower. I stayed behind at the motel and let the girls do their thing. I'm not much into baby showers.

C came back and we headed up to the auction. It was busy there with a lot of people. We made it back to the motel room late. I didn't even take a shower. I am going to get one in a little while. I haven't had much sleep, but I feel refreshed.

Well Y'all, Take it easy!

Cop a squat and leave

Hey Y'all,

We are here for tonight and gone in the morning early. C has a VA appointment up in Atlanta. We will be coming home Tuesday. Only going to spend the night up there this time.

I am tired. I got some more ink today. I got a swallow holding a banner with my wife's name in it. It's really cool and the guy did a outstanding job. C got another tattoo. This one is on her arm. It's a rose surrounded by vines. It looks excellent. I am really proud of her for getting it. The pain was worth it.

We had take out Chinese for supper tonight. I couldn't eat all mine. I am stuffed. K has gone to a friends house. C and I are relaxing.

Y'all take it easy!

Good day but a long one

Hey Y'all,

Today we went to the annual party with a chapter of the club in South Carolina. We took a ride to Paris island where C went to boot camp in the marines. I made it to Paris island but had to put C on one of the brothers bikes to finish the ride. My back had went out and I came back to where the party was.

Tonight I went to the clubhouse and got some new ink. I got crossed spark plugs on my hand. It looks great. I will be glad when it heals up because the hand is a precarious place to get a tattoo.

C and I are both wore slap out. C has already gone to sleep and I am not far behind. We check out of the motel room in the morning and head back.

Well, it's like 2 am so I best get off here and try and get some sleep.

Y'all take it easy!

Friday

Hey Y'all,

We made it to South Carolina. I ended up riding the bike. I am paying for it now. But I rode. C brought the car over.

We went to the 9-11 remembrance this evening that was put on by the chapter of the club over here. It was good. Tomorrow is the annual party and ride.

We had some supper and came back to the motel room, Now we are relaxing. On the way up to the room C stepped off the sidewalk and fell. He knee is banged up. She put some ice on it, now it looks better. She will be sore tomorrow.

Well Y'all take it easy!

Quiet day at home in the swamp

Hey Y'all,

Didn't get out of the house much today. Stayed in till this evening. Only went out once before that, and that was to pick up B from work and some lunch from McDonald's.

C went to the auction and I was supposed to meet her there. By the time I was on my way she had already left. She said there wasn't anything interesting there. We met at the local restaurant and had supper. We came home after that and have pretty much been in all night.

The shotgun had come back from being repaired by Remington. I took it out and test fired it a little. I couldn't stay out there long because the skeeters were getting bad. It seemed to do alright. I only run 8 shells thru it, but it didn't jam.

It's still hot out down here. The nights are getting a little cool, but the days are still upper 80's to low 90's. I'll be glad when October gets here and it cools off some during the day.

Well, Y'all take it easy!

Nice day in swampy land

Hey Y'all,

Today was nice. C and I started our day with lunch from the local restaurant. My friend came by and cut the grass. My yard looks nice. We went to the harley shop and C finally found a pair of boots that would fit her. We had a card from the harley shop that we used so the boots only cost us 5 bucks.

I shopped around a little to see if I could find any cheaper home owners insurance and found out I am doing pretty good. USAA wanted more than double what I am paying now with my current company. I think I will stick with what I got.

We had a nice family supper tonight with everybody there. We stopped by a friends house so C could give our friends her old boots that were barely worn. They were harley boots, but they were tight on C's feet.

We had a good time today and enjoyed ourselves.

Well Y'all take care!

Swamp life

Hey Y'all,
Today wasn't a bad day. We spent most of it at home. Tonight we grilled steaks and had a family supper with K and B, C and me.

We are going to South Carolina this weekend to spend With friends and the club. We are going to get a motel room over there and I am going to trailer the bike. That way I will be fresh and ready to ride on Saturday.

Everybody is doing fine. Just dealing with life that's all.

Back home in the swamp

Hey Y'all,
We made it back home from north Ga. We had a good time visiting with friends and going to the auction. C went to the wedding, but I did not. We met up at the auction later.

Last night I ate at subway. It was the only thing I ate all day. A couple of hours after I ate I started puking and couldn't stop. Then I got diarhea real bad. I ended up in the emergency room at the VA. They pumped me full of fluids and let it get out of my system. My sugar was high. after I stopped puking and the diarhea went away and they got my sugar down, They let me go home.

C called the subway store we got the rotten food from and asked to speak to the manager. The person took our number, but the manager never called. I have a good mind to find their corporate number and file a complaint.

Well Y'all take it easy!

Short one

Hey Y'all,
We all made it up here safe and sound even thou we all came separately.

I am wore out so this is going to be a short one.I made it up I-16 fine, so did C. K didn't have such luck. At 6 pm they closed the interstate for repairs on a overpass. She had to take a detour.

My legs and back are terribly sore. I didn't have much sleep before I made this trip. It was rough coming up.

Going Back up

Hey Y'all,
We have a little change in plans and I will be going back up to north Ga this weekend. In a lot of ways I don't want to but I feel it's necessary. I am following my heart and better judgement.

We got a lot of things done today. Did a lot of our running around. I'm glad we got it out of the way. There is still some things to take care of when we get back. But it will be OK.

Well Y'all take it easy!
