Good morning Rjm

Yeah, hi. Still trying to write a book. Daughter had it printed once and I liked it the first time I read it on paper instead of on line but now I hate it, am stalled on one chapter and wish had never started it because it is lousy, amateurish, really bad but now have to finish it because daughter, son and best friend expect it. It is raining and daughter and I spent half day wandering around boondocks looking for German shepherd puppy kennels they gave directions to on web page but apparently does not exist. My Ford f150 got stuck in muddy ditch trying to get out of dead end country road not signposted as dead end and she-- my truck- is pissed. And muddy. She wants to go back to Texas. She is my baby , can still drive for couple hours but legs hurt after that. Hate Virginia traffic. Never did find puppy but are going to try :again tomorrow. Place other side of Culpeper, about 60 miles away, has breeding parents on site named Prince von Rubinstein or something, champion bloodlines, akc registered and they give training classes including police training. Whoopee.. I don't much care for dogs but if we had to have one, I wanted a doberman. Anyway, what's with you ?? You sound lonesome ??? It is hard to communicate with person who does not communicate back. Today is beginning of flu season, so after puppy quest tomorrow, I will not leave house again till March. Had double pneumonia three times in last five years and figure once more would do it. Anyway, no place to go., look so old, crippled and ugly is embarrassing to be seen., scooting around on motor chair, sucking on oxygen.. Have always loved to drive, but not here. Say something.

Do you know anything about guns ?? I have this 22 revolver I really like but it is sort of weird. The chamber is secured in place by a long rod that has to be removed before it can be reloaded, and to remove the rod, you have to unscrew this tiny little screw under the barrel. What you do is get off six rounds, then ask your home invaders or whatever to wait thirty minutes while. you reload. When I took my carry exam, my instructor said I was a good shot, but I'm so dumb about guns, I hate to try to talk to a real gunsmith. Daughter, 21 year navy veteran qualified on everything from bb guns to mortars, says this is weird and probably won't fire, but I took it out on the back porch and put six rounds in a fence post. It does indeed fire. But now I have to reload it. Why is this stupid rod holding the chamber locked in place ???

I don't care what shoes she wears, I wish Iooked like that.

But you said you found something that really helps and you actually look forward now to the meds. Did it help the burning throat ?? Did Dr. look at throat ?? And say what ?? Is it better or worse or just ongoing ?? I don't think oxygen should burn your throat. And did you put a chair in your shower ?? It really helps if you can sit down while you shower. I'm so happy I can still keep self clean. Have a chair and hand held shower head and a radio. Listen to Chris Platt and Rush Limburger. Think I would like to try that-- making millions just for talking.
