05/24/2022 - Mercury Retrograde?!

Might need to revisit my
thoughts regarding temper
tantrums . . .

We were going to visit the
children for a couple of 
days and then hit the road to 
take in another bunch of our 
kids in the opposite direction.

Alas, camping rarely gives
you a news broadcast, but our
neighbors were good enough 
to let us know we had a couple
of feet of new snow. Best to
stay where we were already.

We say our goodbyes, along
with apologies for nigh onto
overstaying our welcome . . .
Everyone being so sweet 
about it. Hit the road, Jack . . .

 . . . and promptly burn out 
the brakes and blow out a tire. 
Scary times. Tears threaten, but 
foul language tops that. Guess 
I'd just better shut the f--- up 
while I'm ahead.

Good thing number one son-in-
law is there to mitigate all those
pesky emotional responses! One
more time . . . Hit the road, Jack,
brake free and all . . .

Bad thing though . . . new tire, 
new brakes, all around that
ridiculous $1,000.00 mark, full
well knowing I only have $300.

Guess it's a good thing there's
little call for hundred year old
playmates . . . hummmmm, how
is it that I'm going to pay for 
this already?!

Grrrrrrrrrrrrr ~!@#$%^&*()_+
