Still in Nashville waiting out the storm (rain). Lots of things to do here if you can dodge the crazy drivers, I thought Dallas was bad.

Dunner glad you are doing better and you have the caregivers under control.

Jne sorry about the road gator. We dodged a few coming to Tennessee.

Marty beautiful picture!!!

Diane, glad your doing well, we need more pictures.

Tim, fixed yet? and I hope your not under water. Radar looked like you got plenty of rain.

Everybody, smooth roads, no wind and safe travels.

Look at this hauler..

We detoured through Wisconsin for genetic family visitation on our way back to Texas. It was NOTHING LIKE playing with a bunch of STMs!

All is well except some truck lost its alligator boot in Jackson, Mississippi and the Eagle swooped down and grabbed it using it's left air scoop below the bumper. Lost the parking light, and the brackets, tailpipe and muffler to the generator, but we kilt that varmit, by golly!

Life on the move is exciting! WHOA!!! Give me some more!!!

Thanks, Marty. I'm flattered. Mama always wanted to write a book but she wasted her good years makin' beer cans so she could feed and cloth me and my three lazy sisters. She even had an opening line for her novel: "It was a dark and stormy night on Lilly Pad Pond". That, of course, was the night and the place of my conception brought about by her coupling with a truck driver ... She didn't know what to say after that so the novel remains unwritten.

I am reading "The Crowded Camper" blog from the beginning (October, 2013) The Crowded Camper - A mom's life in a Crowded Camper It is funny and heartwarming. I'm laughin' til I cry, and cryin' til I can laugh again. This gal REALLY should write a book and it could be required reading for STMs if it were possible to require anything of an STM.

I had to go read them too... just got caught up, started at the beginning... didn't get anything done today...LOL! I do believe she is writing her book and using the blog to do that, I believe she intends to get the first part published sometime ate this summer. ( 1st 6 months in Arkansas)

Wow... The mutants came out of hiding tonight! So much activity and even Dunner is on the mend. The rainbow appears to be turning right side up after a whirlwind of a topsy-turvy GC!

Dave has made it to his home CG and become prolific. Now let's see his watercolor!

Jim and Ginny are still out there on the road - and we're jealous! Let us know when you're "coming to town" again and we can grab a meal or something. You too Herb. North Texas has lots of miles to it. Fortunately there are mutants dotting the map and potential mini-Cs abound.

Jeanie - we've missed your humor. And Tim - they must be keeping you busy cause we're hearing too little from you.

Steve - I'd think twice before canceling the warranty - but others wouldn't have one at all. I just know that when they pay - it's usually big enough to offset expense. Went almost a year without a claim - first claim paid covered over a years premiums. The warranty is expensive - but so is everything that breaks. If ya get lucky - nothing ever breaks. A little covered breakage isn't bad.

Tom and Jan - tip of the hat - taking detours with a mutants stride! Well done.

Sorry if I missed anyone but Annie is asking me when we are buying a toad and getting out of here. That's a good sign! And so is this....

Good show! Give us more.

I tend to call everything like it is. That way you only have one story to defend. Not always the best course of action, but that is the way I have always been. Don't like it, :"Leave Me Alone".

I spoke to my physician, (the medical director of this place), about delayed pain medications and oh, what a turn around. This one nurse brings them without me asking. Usually it was 1/2 hour delay.

They removed me from the feeding machine a couple hours ago, so I'm not tied to this machine any more. The nurses will come in and tube me 12 oz of 80 proof every 3 or 4 hours. It is such a feeling of freedom not being tied to it 7/24. I can walk the isles and go to the bathroom without it. Yeah.

Tomorrow, they are supposd to put together a package of my remaining meds and write me scripts for 30 days worth. Not sure how that is going to work. They still haven't gotten a Dr to sign the script for lorazapam. How are they going to get one to sign anything else?. Anyhow, I am then supposed to get my scripts from my PC. Hope I can get him to go strong enough on the pain and sleep meds. He's playing around with different drugs to find what works of me. I wish he would give me enough to self medicate to the point of finding what does work and stick to it. I have a very hight tolerance and some of them only work for one or two nights. I loved Ambien CR as it let me fall asleep fast, sleep for 10 hours and wake up refreshed. Too bad that after 2 years my tolerance went up to where it wasn't working. Anybody use a reliable sleep med? OTC will not work for me. I keep telling my Dr that I don't care if I get hooked on a benzo. What's it going to do? Kill me or let me get a good night sleep? I have never been hooked on a med, just what if does for me. I.E. lets me sleep or take away the pain.

Lunesta worked for me, but I had to take 3 to get to sleep and stay asleep all night long. I finally am off of them when I went cold turkey off all my meds. Long story.
