Excitis, excitis, excitis....well, a little bit

Boy howdy, you go Billy Bob.

Ok, I know I said I was gonna take a break on blog writ'n, but you know how I am. I cain't keep my mouth (fingers) shut. I got stuff to say.

Hey, take a look at my "to do" list. I checked off 5 items yesterday.....but added 3. I ain't talk bout no major items 'cause I ain't got none. Well I do, but they gonna have to wait for somebody else to do them. I refolded and rearranged bout 30 dad gum pull over shirts. Why the hell do I have bout 30 pull over shirts? I gave bout 10 or 15 to Frank.
I relocated bout 350 cowboy/western paperback books. Now that was a job....where the hell do ya put 350 books?
Used spare golf'n clubs. Where to put them? Well shoot, that's easy....under the bed. Ok, now where do I put the stuff I removed to make room for the golf'n clubs? Dumpster?? Oh hell no, Billy Bob don't throw stuff away. May need it some day. "Hey, look what I found". I been look'n for that for over two years. That's the way I am folks, I keep stuff.

Oh my god, I only got bout three more things on my list. Unimportant things ya know. They don't need to be done, but "da house" would look better if'n they were.

Ok...for those that read the link yesterday bout my personalities, "the popster" made his appearance yesterday afternoon. And it costed me. Ya see, the neighbors dog comes over to talk to the damn goat an' them two burros. That's all he does...he talks. I'm sit'n here in my easy chair, look'n out the winder, watch'n that dog as he says to the goat...."you look rather pretty today...goat". Nephew shows up with a gun in his hands. "The popster" makes his appearance...."what the %*#@ (eff) are you do'n"??? I went out that door like a speed'n bullet...."ya don't shoot dogs". That's when the shit hit the fan. Had that dog been chas'n or try'n to bite the farm animals, "the popster" would have stayed in the closet. But that dog has never bothered the farm animals....never. He just come over to visit an' talk to them. Anyhows, the old Billy Bob is a piece of shit now. "Nephew Joseph, if'n you was to take the time to fix your fence, that dog would stay at home". Grrrrrrrr....I was sooo pissed.

Anyhows, a few hours later Joseph realizes he was in the wrong an' we talk for a bit. All was well.

Well shoot, why did I tell that story? Well, actually, to get it out my mind. Kept me awake last night think'n bout that poor dog.

So yes, I'm get'n excitis. If things straighten out a bit...talk'n bout my back, I'll be "on the road again" very soon. Think'n maybe this week, but I got one more golf'n game I just HAVE to play before I go. Ain't no two ways bout it, I got to play golf. Cain't hook up an' go on the weekend 'cause the propane place is closed on weekends. I'm out of propane ya know. Got to be a week day. So as far as I can predict, next week is lift off.

I ain't drove I-10 to Georgia in years. Think'n I may change my route....but I-10 an' I-20 both go to the same destination, go to the same states an' both routes are bout the same distance. Decisions, decisions. Dad gum it, there's Houston right in the way on I-10. Have ya ever drive through Houston? Boy howdy let me tell ya........YIKES! I got me some think'n to do.

Oh wait.....lookie here.
How much change is in this container? It's 6x6x2 1/2 inches of pennies, nickles an' dimes. No quarters. Frank is headed to the change exchange place to turn into crisp hunnert dollar bills. I'm gonna guess bout $45....give or take a couple dollars. What ya think???

Ok, got me a few things to do. See ya tomorrow.

    1. Hmmmm.....just look'n at the top layer, I see $2.30 worth of dimes alone. Maybe we both are too low in our quesstimations.

    2. I'm aguessin' ....but wait a minute...do I get a prize if'n I'm a winner? No? Just my luck. I'm guessin' $37.18. Bingo!

      Glad you are getting your preps made for traveling time.

      So hot here today, the heat of Georgia would sap me senseless. Wish I could find somebody to make a path to my creek and drop me a load of sand...a'swimmin I'd go or at least a good cool foot soak and maybe a frosted.

  3. If you read some of those books, give those away. If not, get reading. . . I would guess about 50 to 60 bucks in that tray. If you want an exact guess, I would say $52.65. Who ever guesses the closest get the coins, right? (grin)

    1. In bout 4 years of boondocking, I've read all the books. Then I started all over again. Got bout half of 'em reread.

      Ha ha....my estimate was low....yours was closer. But tomorrow, you will know who wins the piping hot cup of Billy Bob coffee...an' a donut. Plus a short recognition post on my blog. That's worth a hunnert dollar right there.

  6. Do you really prefer to drive an interstate across Texas? I'd find me a lonely U.S. or State Highway that avoids the big cities. U.S. highways that I've been on have plenty of fuel stops, and other things you might need. They also have places to overnight, in my experience.

    1. I agree with Gypsy.
      However, I know you will drive one Interstate of the other. From what I have read in other blogs I-10 is rough as a cob going across Louisiana. I guess IF I was forced to drive an Interstate and had a choice between I-20 and I-10 I would take I-20.
      So, knowing you. Have a good trip on I-10, Ya Hear!

  7. $49.37 should do it. We have driven through Houston 5-6 times, but on a Sunday morning each time, piece of cake.
