Well I haven't posted for over a week as I have been a little under the weatherand haven't had much interest in doing anything but sleep.
Well the trip home started Wednesday the 1st. Started off real good and was making good time until I came into Tennessee and had two flats at the same time, One on the left rear of the truck and the left front of the trailer. I put the spare on the truck but didn't have one for the trailer, so I had to drive to the next off ramp to find a place to buy two tires as the others were beyond repair. When I was changing the truck tire it felt like something bit me on my arm and on the left side temple. Didn't think much of it as I thought it was probably an ant....Anyway after the tires were fixed I continued on to Little Rock, Arkansas to stay the nite.
The next morning I woke up and the left side of my face was swollen so much I could not see out of my left eye and my arm was swollen also! I drove that way too my sisters house in Oklahoma, where she took me to her Doctor and he said that they are spider bites and that I had an allergic reaction to them. The doc gave me some codeine and antibiiotics to get me home. He told me to see my own doctor as soon as I arrived back in Cali. and for him to check it out.
Well I arrived in Cali. at 9:00 pm Friday and couldn't see the doc untill Monday morning, Thats when the scalpel came out and he lanced both spots.
Despite the bad trip I am so glad to be back HOME!!!!
Injected is nice, But I'd rather be Blown     Â

Fuggin spiders are nasty.......Just the other day I heard my wife screaming in the garage like someone was attacking her but all that happened was she walked through a web and got all freaked out fearing the spider was now crawling on her.. I make fun of her even though I'll walk in the street to avoid any webs that might be hanging from the trees along the sidewalks...
