Truckers and Bonkers and Life......oh my!

Good evening from the other tin can!

I have been home now for two days and really haven’t accomplished a bloody thing!  I took care of my medical needs as soon as I got home though.  I now have a shiny and very expensive gold crown to add to my pearly white smile.  I also have surgery scheduled for Tuesday (our departure date) to have that synovial cyst removed from my thumb.  I have notified my fleet manager that I would be back behind the wheel on the 28^th and she stated I won’t be unless I have a doctor’s release.   Maria laughed when she heard just how extreme I would go to get a couple of extra days off!

My Mother thinks I have gone bonkers when I told her that I went to the tattoo parlor today to barter with the shop owner.  I have 8 - 14K Gold captive rings that he wants. I want a sub dermal bindi and some more ink.  I asked for $400 worth of tattoos including the bindi.  He is researching and will come back with a yes or a counter offer.  I know, I am a little bonkers to want an implant stuck in between my eyes that will allow me to have a colorful array of balls/stones that I can twist into my forehead!  You are shaking your heads and wondering WHY???? All I can say is…….because I can!  J  After years of dry cleaning bills and high heels while sitting behind a desk, I can now do whatever I wish as I now sit behind a steering wheel! 

I still haven’t been able to work on the yard or the property as while the nation is dying in severe heat, Seattle is nothing but a cool tropical paradise that won’t stop raining long enough to get things done outside!  My little patch of forest is taking over my little patch of grass and pretty soon, I will just be able to reach out my window and pick blackberries from the vines that have covered my trailer!  I am still crossing my fingers that I will get the chance before my surgery Tuesday morning. 

OH, I will be dining with Brian and Jim this Sunday so I will be updating you with their “over the road” stories and pictures soon.

Off to do nothing……it is rather nice at the moment!
