Sorry for disappearing on you. My daughter Ginny & I drove to San to see her daughters; taking advantage of the low gas prices. We left Christmas night & got home New Year's day. I meant to send a message before we left, but forgot it with all the chaos. I've been sleeping most of the last 3 days, recuperating. I'll try to get caught up on messages today. Meanwhile, here's some entertainment for you. I composed a country-western song based on our trip. You'll have to make up your own melody as I don't know how to write music. The trip down was going okay, with an hour to go, when I had a blowout on the freeway in Austin. Things went downhill from there & by the time we got to San I was ready to blow my stack. I know how to de-escalate & usually do it, but this time I just forged ahead, arguing with Ginny even though I know it's pointless. Finally, I just had a total meltdown, pulled over on the freeway, got out & started trying to hitchhike. A cop stopped to see what was going on & I told him I wasn't getting back into the car with Ginny, so he put me in the back of his squad car & took me to my granddaughter' s apartment. Ginny eventually apologized to me & we patched things up. That's the first 2 verses, with a little poetic license. Then on the way home we got stopped in Arkansas. The state trooper said that I was swerving & he wondered if I was sleepy. I told him, truthfully, that I was just wiggling around trying to get my bottom comfortable. That's the third verse. So, hope you get a smile out of it & send it to the group if you think it's appropriate. Not sure if "ass" will pass muster these days. Missed you all & back at you later!
