A night of no sleep

Before I get on with my daily nonsense, I'm gonna tell ya bout a no sleep nightmare. After a fall yesterday night, I was in total 100% authentic pain. An attempt was made at right bout midnight to hit the bed for a wonderful nights sleep. That lasted no more than a minute. I could not lay down. Attempts to doze off in the office chair didn't work. The sooo comfortable recliner was of no help. I'm in for a terrible night. Double dose of pain pills was took.

Sit'n at the computer watch'n TV while read'n a book, the hours passed away. The sun come up. I fell asleep. Yeee Haa!!!

At exactly 9:30, I was aroused by the sound of a bulldozer crank'n up. That dad gum neighbor run slap over my back. That was 2 hours ago, I'm feel'n much better now.

Due to weather conditions....."it's cold Louie", I been think'n "what I'm gonna do now" now that the tug boat is finished. Sit'n on a shelf above the tug boat in a Mississippi river boat that ain't never been finished. Some railings to be installed. Remove an' reinstall all the remote control stuff in a more "manly" manner. Replace all the wiring. Break out a scrub brush an' warsh that thing.

But, a idea hit me right in the head.....build a "Alice". In case you're new to "Billy Bob's Place", you may not know that Alice was the name of my first motorhome. A 29 foot Tiffin Open Road.

Now I ain't say'n that's what I'm gonna do, but it's crossed my mind many times since she went to the "old folks" home.

Ok, I cain't do this today. I need to get some sleep. See ya laters.....

  1. I just hate it when I have trouble sleeping at night. Hope you get some sleep today, but not too much or you won't be sleepy tonight.

  2. B.B. according to my tv this morning, it will get up to 70°f and it is very sunny with no wind here today.
    it is a beautiful day here down in the rio grande valley of south texas. you have options B.B. and less that 200 miles . oh by the way ,why only 200 or 300 miles ? will your sally motor-home blow up in a million pieces ?

  3. Hey louie frost, the way I like to travel is to hit the road about eleven a.m. and be parked by four p.m. with a stop-over for lunch. So two or three hundred miles makes a perfect day's trip.

  4. BB, you thinking you gonna scratch-build that puppy as an RC motorhome? Now that'd be a project that would take up a good bit of your bitching and scratching time for a long while. Hope you are feeling better real soon now.

  6. I probably can understand better than anyone what it feels like not to be able to sleep. I certainly hope you get a good night's rest this evening.

    Would love to see an Alice motorhome model.

  7. Building an "Alice" would sure be a challenging project and no doubt keep you busy for a long while.
