thanksgiving 2011

thanksgiving 2011. it was an interesting holiday. this is the first time ever in my life, that I was not with any family at all. seems mom decided to do this day in a cabin in colorado with sissy, and who knows where brother is. The girls are with their mom and her folks. So dear precious pamM decided to feel sorry for me and invted me to be with her folks. It was a huge gathering of several families at a home in the country. Somehow... day before yesterday I hurt my hip. yes my stupid hip. I think i pinched anerve. it is very painful, and I limp terribly... so when I went, i pumped up with ibprofen...which dulled it, but I still had a slight limp. Thats always better (slight rather then terrible limp) when your carrying someone elses pies to the truck because your the "young and strong one".. those 80 yr olds can still whip out a great pie.. i guess I can carry them to the truck. so i went, and watched... and tried not to fall down. I did well. i was on my best behavior and didnt grope the g/fs ass even once. well maybe once.  but no one saw.

Im not sure how ones hip can hurt so..when  you didnt do anything to hurt it. It must take one tough sob to grwo old gracefully. I think I will grow old....kicking and clawing someones eyes out. probably my nurse or home health care person.  Surely I did somethng special to hurt like this... like throw a bad guy over my hip and put a secret ninja move on his ass. hmmmm. or maybe I rescued someone...like..froma burning building or soemthing. yeah. I like that. Im waiting to hear from someone important about getting a medal or soemthing. Maybe it was when i lifted that JD tractor tire rim into the truck. Im sure glad I figured out what to use tha tfor... a very nice fire ring...to have a nice campfire in and roast weenies in. and then that bear attacked, and I threw him over my hip into the fire and we ate roasted bear. and I saved the whole group. and uh...the big group of boyscouts that was just down the uh.. road... that the bear...oh. hell. nevermind.

ok. i will provide TG dinner tomrrwo for the girls, which of course will be at the local cafe. I think ill lay down on this new carpet for ab it....and hope that I can get up. Ive found that I now know what coffee tables are really for. They are just the right height to pull up on, crawl up... and stand up... when you cant otherwise get up. it should be called a get up table. or ...something like that.

I may take my walk, but I hear the wind blowing. that would be just right huh? gettinb blown off my feet, and cant get up. maybe I should get papa's old cane. He would laugh at that. I have a nicer home then I had last year. I have more peace then I had last year. I have more hope, and more insight. I also have less trust, and few expectations. im not sure if that is bad or good. I have good health, an income... and a few internet friends... maybe even a few real life ones. I thank God for these things. I will try not to blame others for their stupid decisions, that affect me. Is almost time to say goodbye to this year... and look down the road for the next one. but not quite. I dont know where this rollercoaster is headed... but im hangin on... Im not prayin Jerimiah 33:3... not feeling that adventurous.. ill just hang on to the ride im on now.

I hope i can limp gimp my fat self to bed.
