Sorry, I’ve been really sick for the last few days and just had no strength to do anything. We pulled into New Johnsonville, TN, on Friday afternoon and I headed straight for the bed. I surely was not very good company at all. How rude can one be, pull this behemouth into their driveway, sick looking woman enters their home and heads straight for their spare bedroom! Thank goodness David sister, Ruby, is so gracious. She totally understood how sick I was and was there with chicken broth hoping to get me well quicker. I never got to know David’s mother very well, but I know she had to have instilled these loving qualities in Ruby. Saturday was a blur because I just couldn’t stay up, slept most of the day; well until the storms hit! We really had some rough storms here, but fortunately no damage at any of our families homes. Someone said that the south was welcoming us with its fireworks…well, those kind of fireworks I can do without! So, between being sick and our brother-in-law not having WiFi, this blog has been neglected.
Sunday I had more strength so we took a drive to Loretta Lynn’s property which is just a short way from Ruby’s in Hurricane Mills, TN. They said she was still performing there and goes out on the road a lot, but of course, we didn’t see her.
Today, we left Ruby’s for Robyn’s. David drove the motorhome and my car while I drove his Dodge Ram. We decided that the truck was too much on their property, what with our motorhome & the car that we left the truck with David’s ex-wife. Sounds funny, but we are just one big happy family! She was nice enough to let us park his truck at her house for the next couple of days…that’s just the way we are here in the south;-) Thanks, Valeria and Danny!
David is pretty sick now, he’s held off long enough to get me home, he just can’t go any further. I’m taking him to an urgent care facility tomorrow morning…the grandchildren want to play with him, but they can’t get around him right now.
We pulled into Robyn’s this afternoon while she was at school picking up Kiley. It was wonderful to see her call come down the driveway, knowing there was a little almost 6 year old girl wanting to see her Mimi. She piled out of that car so fast and was in my arms before I knew it! She made the statement, “my Mimi is in Clarksville now and will live forever in Clarksville”! Guess enough said. Our little Hudson is the cutest thing…2 years old and a John Deere man for sure. Give him something green, a little dirt and a shovel and he’s so happy!
Well, hopefully, tomorrow my David gets some medication so he will feel much better quicker!
