Holy Smokes Again


Man, its been along time again. I have been so busy again that I just havent gotten to sitting here and typing! Between hauling the bills home from the post office and hauling the horses to Ohio and dieting all day and walking two miles and pumping iron and whatever else I hope you can forgive me for not blogging. I noticed today that some of you check regularly and I do appreciate your interest! Sometimes a total stranger gets to the site too! One day I saw that someone from South America somewhere followed a link to Driving Around! Anyway all is well here. I guess I proved to myself that I was still capable of running a 700 mile day twice in a few days as those trips to Ohio amount to such. We just can't pull in to a rest area and take a nap with 8 sweaty, angry Belgians stomping and scratching in the trailer! The excercise and diet are putting the numbers in line with normal. The nurse at the ACU last week wondered if the pressure meter was working right cuz the pressure was so low. The scale might lie but belts don't. That belt that was too tight in May is now running out of holes! I'll have to punch a new hole pretty soon! Havent had much else in activity. Tried to get out camping again but the weather was threatening when I could have gone. Mid October brings us to one more horse run. This one to Lansing for one of the biggest of the nation. Its at the MSU Campus and is the Great Lakes Invitational Show. I hear we will be gone from Tuesday the 16th till Monday the 22nd!

What's Happening?

Holy smokes, its been a few weeks since I did anything here on Driving Around. I guess I've been so busy doing nothing except a couple of horsing around trips and appointments to see what's wrong with me now. The horses most recently made a good show better at the local fairgrounds with Bud the driver and Curtis the new ranch hand! Next week has us scheduled to show at the Sandwich County Fair. Its southwest of Aurora, Illinois. Otherwise I had to take matters into my own hands yesterday and stop taking some medication until I see the good doctor. Too may reactions from that one. The Parkinson's pill has to stay in the diet since stopping that results in some other consequences but I think it such big time mind altering that I was hallucinating a sort of light show that's not welcome to come again. Thursday my stop at the hospital for my Aralast turned fiasco because as I check in the infusion is ordered from lab and then eventually a nurse is assigned to do me. That nurse however decided to call to my doctor because I mentioned some of problems with the previously mentioned drugs. The doctor communicating through his staff here was in Marquette advised that we postpone today's infusion He probably was unaware that we had a very expensive mixture which went down the drain. In that department ....this week be better I hope! Other than that I need to sleep, eat, take a walk, take a nap, eat, and get ready for bed! Good Night! Well I do need to mention that I did go shopping a couple times! Food....you know!
