Ask her if she needs a handyman/odd jobs around the place and work out some arrangement? Winter is coming, maybe you can work something out to get through the winter.
Nah that was about the first question out of my mouth, 'Y'all do any tradin'?'.
The husband said he gets that asked a lot, but he bought the acreage for a hobby like, the hobby just turned into a campround, he doesn't need help.
But interested in stuff, tried bartering off my mini golf course, or shave ice machine, he was intrigued by the mini golf, but the wife nixed that one right in the bud...they're really nice enough people, business just ain't all that great.

...Genius!!!!....that's why my Tracy(and all ladies like Deej and such) has all the smarts!.......damn man, at least ask-even if it's just a place for you to hang until we can get some more green backs rolling in.....
I'm grabbing the extra days, mostly because of the weather system blowin' in, and man is it blowin', I didn't like driving the van to the doc's, it's like driving a billboard shaped kite.
Had to though, missed my appointment day before yesterday from mud.
This pattern blows through though I need to get a move on, need to find some kind of gig, as that was my last doc visit for a time.
Oh gee whiz I thought this was a simple visit checking up on how the meds were doing, okay, yeah, that.
But then I was poked and prodded, sticked and stucked, pee'd in cups, innoculated, ventilated, internally investigated, pert near everything butt mentholated.
The good news is, I am good to go, my blood is sugar satisfactory, my flexability is improving, pain in my shoulders, neck, are managable, hips and lower back isn't great but there's good optimism with higher med doseage they will improve in both pain and flexability, and my neuropathy(sp?) my lower extremities may be squashed quite a bit...not bad for a tore up 'ol pre geezer, I am good to go..did I mention that, well okay, the memory thing is...um, what was I talkin' about?
So the bottom line is I don't need to hang close by here, next appointment in six months unless the labs come up wacky, and they won't, and even then another doc somewhere else can take over at that point...though I'd sure miss Doc Nina, ssssmokin'!..and she has this waayyy cute little British accent, and she's catchin' justa lil' HillBilly twang, I'm mean it's sssaxy!!!...turn your head and cough, so notta problem is what I'm sayin'!
Oh well, can't stay here just for my health, this place is killin' me,

...okay man, I'll quit motherin' ya...you know what feels right for ya...
Hey pal, I don't mind, right now though I'm just stagnant, and that is so not very good for my wiring, gotta feel like I'm doing something, anything.
And ya know, this doesn't necessarily feel right, doesn't exactly feel wrong, but it feels practical, at least the most practical option I have at the moment.
Scott I haven't turned down your generous offer, ah hell no, I ain't the brightest bulb in the box but I ain't that stupid, I did Kentucky winter last year mostly outside, I don't cherish the memory.
Right now though, high on my priorty list is making sure I don't lose what I have left that's in storage, it's what I have left of my, and Mama's, life, not just stuff, or even concession stuff, but all my lifes memories.
Had the dough for a another month put back, had to spend it on this gas hog, batteries, more feline stuff....
Now I just have a month left, I'm afraid if I go very far away from it all now, it's all as good as gone, that and my doc that started treating me getting me fixed up is the only reason I'm still anywhere around here.
So instead of waiting for some of this other unbelievable generosity to reach me, to allow me to take of what in my mind needs taken care of, I still have just at a half tank, a sawbuck and some change, and a little time to kill, just maybe I can make a score up river a few miles, can't hurt to shake a tree, well, as long as it ain't fulla hornets I reckon, mean what's the worse that could happen..yeah probably shouldn't answer that, we'll just that say we did;-).
Now though I gotta what for this wind to die down, it's rockin' the heavy Chevy like a sissy import, and I'm stll in the medical parking lot.

Every time I walk in the store, I look towards the donuts. I see them. They sing their siren song to me. And so far, I have been able to walk by. Today I actively sought out my donuts, but I couldn't find them seeing as how our store is going through a huge remodel. So I took it as a sign that my belly did not need to bloat another inch.

There's a grocery about twenty miles away that has the best freakin' donuts I have ever had, and my.name is Patrick and I ARE a donutaholic.
They have a banana cream filled with buttered Nilla wafer crumbles I'd almost kill for, but then they have this one that has Oreo mousse filling, with a crushed Oreos and cream topping, that I'd consider starving an entire orphange of Olivers for just a bite...ohmygoodlordIwantone!!!..I may need a donut intervention, get into a program...now about PIE,
ohhhhhhh piiiiiie, how I love thee and your delicate a crumbly crust

Close you eyes and picture this:
Apple Pie, Apple Pie
Such a wondrous thing,
in the winter or in the spring.
So, doggone sweet
and a yummy treat.

Apple Pie, Apple Pie
Pluck the sweetest from the tree,
one, two, three, laughing with glee.
A flaky crust and sweet center,
eaten with ice cream who cares if winter.

Apple Pie, Apple Pie
Sugar and cinnamon, sticky sweet,
pop it in the oven, almost complete.
I cannot wait to have a slice, maybe two,
as one would scarcely do.

Apple Pie, Apple Pie
I cannot believe I did not share.
It was tasty on my tongue,
and now there is no more there,
not even a crumb.
