Peteyfoozer’s Journey (because journaling’s not enough)

[SageHill]

WOW !!! That is absolutely fabulous!! Small trips to figure out what you need on hand - easy reach while driving.
LOL -- I always had a cooler with soda (though more recently just water) and at least a bag of pretzels. I did A LOT of driving - van and motorhome when I was going to herding trials, nosework trials and dog shows. In some cases coast to coast (though that was always with a motorhome everything packed including the kitchen sink ).

I’m hoping he’ll get used to it and not stress me out while I’m driving since I never drive and I’m not very good at it.

So glad for you! Seatbelt clip for his harness and short practice trips should help both of you with confidence.

WHOOP!!! I’m so excited for you!

To play devil's advocate... maybe Randy did "hear you" more than you realized???? About the depression and the feeling isolated and such????
Regardless of who/what/why.... so glad that you will have an "OUT" from the ranch on occasion....

Halfway packed and low pressure system brought rain and seems to have triggered both my RA & Fibro. Usually the latter doesn’t raise its ugly head and cause me much trouble. It came on like a dragon this time
Plus I’m having breathing problems that are a little scary. So will be leaving a couple days later than I originally hoped.
He’s going to town for a battery. Asked him to look for Mullien Tea but I doubt there’s any in Burns. Hoping it will help me breathe better. Ordered some online too so if he can’t find it, I’ll stay here at least until it’s delivered.

I wound up running into Burns for an appointment with a gp. I’ve has a variety of weird symptoms the past few months that I ignored and chalked up to being a result of my crummy condition, the meds, and all my autoimmune issues. But I postponed leaving on our road trip because weather changes truggered monstrous flares of everything including these symptoms and I finally decided I need to know what’s up. (Suddenly feeling as if I can’t get any air, cold sweats, inability to regulate body temperature, instant fatigue, etc. etc. ) She ordered labs and chest xrays All come back normal except low in B complex. I guess I will need more tests as the feeling of not being able to breathe is so distressing I’m desperate for help. I did make tea with some of the mullien leaves @Mini Horses sent. But my O2 is good at 97% and lungs are clear. Hoping to leave Fri for California. Praying this won’t be another problem

Maybe some Vit B complex????
