"The Scenic Route"

                        “Now cowgirls, don’t get the wrong idea, as long as I can ride, I will work.”   I just listed 36 acres on FM 362 just north of Brookshire.  Over 2,000 feet of frontage on FM 362, asking - $15,000.00 per acre.  Jimmy Ramone, I believe it is worth that.

            Most of ya’ll know about my fight with cancer.  After the last checks and scans my doctors and I decided that it was time to get off chemo and on pain management.  Well, now it is body craig taking on the cancer and I have very limited energy after a day of fighting with cancer.  I appreciate all of ya’ll, but I just don’t have the energy for many guest, but thanks.  King Dixon comes first and foremost, when we take a break and he goes home to Knippa, then there is immediate family and then, very important, to me, is doing a little work.  I usually sleep for hours and hours.

            Ya’ll know that I’m on narcotic pain relievers.  Dr. Ho loaded me down with as much as I want.  I could get hooked on these narcotics!  Hell, I’m already hooked on the Hallmark Queen.  She can’t stop now.  After 5 or 6 days I’ve noticed that I start sweating when I head out to the mail box.  “Will it be there”?

I don’t know why, who, but I need my card.  The Hallmark Queen forwards me cutting edge cards.  She may be a card designer of Hallmark, but the cards are like none that you have ever seen.  Keep them coming, please.  Whoever you are.

            I’m getting tired already, but I’m going to try to give you a little update.  Body Craig is taking on the cancer, and I’m damn proud of body craig.  There are certain times of the day that the fight really gets heated.  And, I mean heated.  My temperature will sky rocket up to 103 degrees +.  Cool rag, aspirin and showers and I can bring it closer to normal. Oh, if you don’t know, when the doctor said the chemo wasn’t working, I had cancer on my back bone, in some of my other bones, on my liver, on my pancreas, and at least eight places on my lungs.  Body Craig is like a lone Texas Ranger,  fighting 50 banditos in a small west Texas Town.  You know, today, I believe body craig is kicking some butt.

            Also, I don’t want to be hauled to the hospital, I’ve told High School Girl Friend that I don’t want any type of life support hooked to me. PERIOD.  I want to die here on the Brazos, where I lived so well.

            No, Lavern I don’t need in house hospice care yet, but I’m going to have one come by the house this week.  Check them out and let them know that I don’t want any emergency personal, PERIOD.

I believe in miracles.

I believe in love.

I believe in being prepared.

 

Like most road trips, this one began a long time ago.

“The Scenic Route”

It’s not the destination.

It’s not the travel plan.

It’s a frame of mind.

 

Still Chasing the Texas sunsets,
