OldTroubador's blog post - update ver 5.2

Its 11 pm and I am waiting for a trailer to get loaded, so I will try this again.
I cauggt a Greyhound bus that Thursday morning, bound for Houston. I have to say, you meet some interesting folks riding a bus. But the critters around the Houston station were really interesting. The city of Houston thinks so too-they have city police officers guarding the McDonalds across the street. Anyway, I threw my bags in the back of the pick up and my wife shagged it on out of there.
She graciously allowed me to sleep in the house because I had to leave my truck in Denton; I even got to sleep in a bed. The next morning, I went to see the doctor. Wouldnt you know, my BP was almost legal. Anyway, the doctor prescribed some new meds and we talked for a bit about other things I can do to help.
I spent the weekend at the house, did a few small chores and hung out with my daughter. I spent seemingly half the weekend with a blood pressure cuff on my arm and was relieved to see that my BP was not only legal, but nearing the normal range. This in spite of the fact that my wife was saying and doing the most outrageous things, trying to piss me off. The young 'un and I scouted a couple fishing holes and made our plans.
Mondat, Tuesday, and Wednesday I hadto go back and have my pressure checked and recorded. I was happy to see that, even with white coat anxiety, my pressyre was staying down. On Wednesday, the results were raxed to my company and arrangements made for a full physical on Thursday. I passed that easily and headed to a TX DMV office to do battle with the state bureacracy. Come to find out, due to aclerical error, my license had been rescinded in February!!! But the lady behind the counter was most helpful. So lock up your wives and cattle-I am back out on the road.
In addition to the meds, I am trying to change the way I eat. I have cut down my consumption of chicken fried steak to seven times a week-I really dont need it for breakfast. And I have found that Country Pride restaurants make a areally nice grilled fish and shrimp platter with stir fry vegetables (OMG, did I actually say that out loud???)
Shortly after getting back on the road, my laptop did a 1\2 gainer off the mattress. Due to all the noise if the beatibg I was takibg crossing Illinois and Indiana, I never noticed. Needless to say, my computer is busted. So now Iam stuck using my phone. In addition to trying to use the weather and map apps on here, trying to navigate NN is a challenge;even more challenging is trying to perv. One day, I saw a pretty sexy ass while going through the thumbnails. I got my magnifying glass to take a closer look a saw a little more than I bargained for. Hey, sexy is sexy. Pony, that is one fine ass you have.
I missed the storms that battered the DFW area a week ago, but I did see the lightning sparking just over the horizon. Our house got hit pretty hard too, with high winds and hail. Luckily, the only damage was the swimming pool getting overturned. And one dog that hyperventilated out of fear.
Over the weekend, I stopped in the Columbus, Ohio area for a couple hours and visited with Celtic One and JD. She has had a pretty rough start to the year, but is bouncing back. They both said to tell everyone "Howdy!!!".
I want to thank everyone who gave me support via status comments and PM's a couple of weeks ago. There were so maby encouraging words, helpful suggestions, and sage advice.
