Georgia on my mind

I ain't the only one ya know. There's people all over the country that have "last dreams", but they don't want to talk bout 'em. The subject is quickly changed an' they go bout their lives never experiencing what they dreamed about for years. They've put it on the back burner an' turn the flame slap off.....give up on their dreeams.

There was a time when I had me a whole bunch of "dreams". Call it a bucket list if'n ya want to. As I said yesterday, I emptyed my bucket....I don't have no more dreams. Except'n for one. Now I ain't say'n I'm done with want'n to do stuff an' have me a little excitement in my life, but I ain't gonna put 'em in no bucket. If'n something comes up, I'll just do my best to do it today. Today, there ain't nuttin.

An' that leads me into today's post....the trip to Georgia. I ain't a bit excitis bout this trip. In fact, I'm hav'n me some second thoughts bout it. It's not a fun filled vacation I'm go'n on, it's a trip to attempt to "fix" stuff. I'm gonna have me a whole bunch of doctor appointments. I have somebody in Georgia that will help me get that done. Where here in south Texas, I have nobody.

Now, bout that 1000 miles to Georgia. I been do'n me some research of places to spend the nights....or a few days if'n the urge hits me. This trip usually takes me 4 or 5 days an' at the rate of 200 or 250 mile a day,  I don't get to see anything to get all excitis bout. I don't get to lay back an' relax an' look at critters run'n round my camp site...rest areas an' truck stops don't have critters. It's a boring trip from south Texas to Georgia. Especially when you travel interstate.

Oh, guess what the old Billy Bob done yesterday. Remember them tools an' stuff lay'n on the floor? I pick them suckers up an' placed 'em in their proper places....to the garage an' tool shed under "da house" (compartments). Now I have room to do the "Texas Two Step". Dang, it's been a long time since I done me some danc'n.

  1. That is just what you need, Billy Bob, go dancing. That will give your feet a good reason to swell up, but I bet you would really have fun. I just bet you can "cut a rug" as good if not better than most people.

  3. Maybe there is something in the air, because I feel just about the same way you do. I'm ready to throw in the towel on dreams, traveling, and all the rest. Well, not quite, but mostly. Maybe after those doctors get through with you in Georgia you might be a new man entirely, and going dancing will be possible.

  5. Hey robert: That's what Daddy's do, you know, beat your A**. My Mom just moved near me for the first time in a few years. I'm just waiting to find her at my place cleaning because, you know, I don't do it very well (ok, I don't...). It is part of where we are in life. All of us.
