STOPPED MY PAIN MEDS THURSDAY AND AM NOW FEELING MUCH, MUCH, BETTER:))

Waiting at the end of our driveway earlier this morning it wasn't long before a dark burgundy van pulled up and whisked me away.  It was my good friend Richard of course and we were off again on another one of our bi-monthly country road coffee runs.  Another couple hours of quality time well spent.  

SHORT ON PHOTOS TODAY I HAD TO TAKE A WALK AROUND OUR JUNGLED FRONT YARD AGAIN

Our good friend Ron from Four Seasons Performance on his way to Goderich later this morning stopped in to say Hello.  Always great to see Ron and ever since buying our first Class A Motorhome from him in May of 2007 we have been good friends and he has done so much for us over the years in regards to RV's. etc.  He also solved a mystery for us.  Over the years we had received 3 different packages in the mail with three different items in each package with no info about who sent them.  Yet the items were somewhat familiar to us and we had a feeling we had seen them before in a number of  Cracker Barrel gift shops.  For years we couldn't figure out who had sent these to us but we did have our suspicions.  Today talking to Ron I remembered those items now hanging in our sunroom and said to Ron, "I have a question for you" and led him into our sunroom pointing up to the ceiling.  Well a great big grin spread across Ron's face like that of a Cheshire Cat and I knew right away who our mysterious gifter had been all these years.  Our suspicians had been confirmed.  Yes, it was indeed Ron and his wife Jan who had anonymously sent us each and every one of them.  Mystery solved and I like it when big happy grins break out and are had by all:))))

THREE OF THE ABOVE HANGING OBJECTS IN OUR SUNROOM CAME TO US FROM A MYSTERIOUS SOURCE

THE ABOVE 3 CRACKER BARREL GIFTS HAVE BEEN HANGING FROM OUR SUNROOM CEILING FOR THE BEST PART OF THE LAST 10 YEARS

Not much going on for the rest of the day but we did take a little jaunt down to Grand Bend and back to break up the afternoon.  Pheebs too.  Sunny and warm today with more hot and miserable sticky days just right round the corner.  Oh Gee can hardly wait eh:((

WELL WHAT THE BIG DARN HECK ARE WE DOING ON AN RV LOT AGAIN....DON'T ASK!!

Took myself off my recently prescribed pain meds (Pms-Hydromorphone) Thursday, dusted off an eight year old bottle of 800mg Ibuprofen which had been prescribed for me in Tucson Arizona for kidney stone pain at that time and 'Walla' I am immediately feeling much better.  I am surprised those old Ibuprofen pills have any strength left in them but they do.  Glad I had kept them all these years and never threw them out.  I had stopped the pain meds Thursday and from about noon today I simply started feeling better and better.  I am almost back to the point where I can leap over tall buildings and run faster than a speeding bullet:))

GROANER'S CORNER:(( There was a Packers fan with a really crappy seat at Lambeau. Looking with his binoculars he spotted an empty seat on the 50-yard line. Thinking to himself "what a waste" he made his way down to the empty seat. When he arrived at the seat, he asked the man sitting next to it, "Is this seat taken?" The man replied, "No, this was my wife's seat. She passed away. She was a big Packers fan." The other man replied, "I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. May I ask why you didn't give the ticket to a friend or a relative?" The man replied, "They're all at the funeral."

We were at a red light when a car pulled up, its music blasting.  “He’ll be deaf before he’s 25,” I said.  “That won’t help us,” my wife replied. “He’ll only crank it up even louder then.”

If life is a waste of time and time is a waste of life, then let's all get wasted together and have the time of our lives.

The corporate world is divided into two groups: those who know, and those who don't know. Those who know become the workers.Those who don't know are also in two groups. First, those who don't know and know they don't know, they go back to school to get another degree.  Secondly, there are those who don't know, and don't know they don't know. They become the managers.
