C. Cooper and the Skyway Bridge

 

Illuminating Florida's 'flagship' Sunshine Skyway Bridge - 

Andrea is driving too fast, we are flying across the Sunshine Skyway, a big beautiful Tom Cat, is straddled on the bridge rail. Its Brian, from Brian Home.

We never pass the cat, it stays where I can see it. The faster Andrea Drives, the more the cat rocks from the movement, I am yelling slow down, the cat will fall off the bridge.

I hear a yell, look out the back, a car is racing along beside us, Charlie Cooper is trying to toss a big black Bible out to me, he wants me to read it while riding on the bridge and see how it feels so weird.

I yell Andrea, slow down, the cat will fall and Charlie is trying to toss a Bible in my window. She says, "what?" Why is he throwing the Bible?

Slow Down!!! the cat will fall and he just hit the trunk with the Bible, they drove really close and grabbed it and is now beside us tossing the Bible through the window.

She starts to slow down, there are red flashing lights, the roadside has several bodies laying in the edge, I am feeling like I am having a heart attack and 

I WAKE UP!

 and look at the clock, its 10:30 AM Sunday morning and my ribs are hurting really bad. I sit up and think now what, reach down and the waist band of my under wear has come up and is across my floating rib. 

Yes. that is real I do have one. I have slept from 8:30 to 10:30, so deeply I dream. 

I tell Bob the dream, he says that's crazy. Charlie Cooper is a preacher from Georgia, a pastor of my dad's church after daddy retired, have not thought of him since daddy died in 2006, have not seen my cousin Andrea since 2008. 

The Bible in the dream he was tossing is this one. I had to get it out of the closet to take this photo. 

I recognized the one in the dream,it was this worn out, taped together with duct tape, marked with yellow markers and ink. I have  7 Bibles, on this shelf, the yellow dot is so worn its falling apart, from 1967, the red dot is the only one I can READ now, It is Large Print NKJ, bought in the mid 90's because of eye strain.

7 Bibles, 1 dictionary, 2 commentaries on the Bible. Rarely touched now that I no longer teach

Andrea Drives an SUV and has no trunk. 

I have wasted the entire morning and The Too Do list is not done, I am 2 hours behind. WHAT HAPPENED? I think it was an exhausted to the bone dream, but who knows. no drugs were involved.

At least Brian the cat did not fall of the sky-way..How could he, he is an angel now.

for those who are still with me, this is what Ai says about the floating rib, seems it flares up under drama, trauma, hypermobility! that is My Life Now

AI Overview

How many ribs do humans have? Men, women, and anatomy

"Floating rib" refers to the 11th and 12th ribs, which are the same in women as in men and do not attach to the breastbone or other ribs. Pain in this area can be caused by a condition called slipping rib syndrome, where these lower ribs move out of place and cause symptoms like sharp abdominal pain, or it could be due to a posture issue called rib flare. Women may also experience symptoms due to conditions like slipping rib syndrome, which can be triggered by trauma, hypermobility, or multiple pregnancies.  I had the pain of slipping rib about 12 years ago and found out about the floating rib pain, Remember I had a fight with a wasp nest recently.

I have been living drama/trauma/hypermobility for 7 months, 4 with Bob in the hospital bed...... 

Comments on Comments Yada Yada

 

Above is Donna's comment on yesterdays post, she was not the only one to suggest hornet spray. Since blog fodder is not easy when housebound, I decided to use her comment and several others who suggested spray and one other comment from AI.

I can't spray them, I would end up in ER, been there done that with flea spray. I am allergic to pyrethrins and they are in all the sprays. I left him in the back yard and even in the front yard, my scalp tingled and my arms too.  I went in the yard to see if it was gone and I  tingled and I touched nothing. If Iam in a room where the pest guy sprays,I have to leave, once they sprayed the indoor pool deck while I was swimming and I had to get out and leave the pool area.

I did not buy a frappuchino, which I love, because I can't drink them anymore because of IBS, but I did find out in the 4 months of shopping on line and delivery, they changed the screens on the self check out. The last time I was there, the woman asked if I wanted a job, that I did it like a professional. This time she had to help me 3 times because they added and subtracted and changed what I used to do. a new screen I could not get out of, and one I could not find, the one you look up fruits/veggies

I explained I had been having it delivered for 4 months and she said why did you come back? I said I needed gas, hubby in hospital bed, cant be left alone, yada yada yada and I thought I could race quickly in and out and home, but here I stand relearning the check out and enjoying talking to you.  I am sure she now knows more than she ever wanted to know. ha ha hagas was $2.73 and 4 months ago was $3.49, shocked, I say shocked at that and YAY

Below is a comment that appeared on an OLD Post this past week. It is written by AI and no way to find who did it. Scary thing to me. AI is not as smart as they think since the comment was under a post that had nothing to do with what is written, and it grabbed info to comment on from 4 different posts.

have you had AI comments?

 

Macro Practice on Hearing Aid Batteries

 

Yesterday I did Pioneer Woman and all the things I can do now that I could not do before Bob stopped walking.

Yesterday I found something I can't do. 

Remove Wasps Nest from Inside Breaker Box. I was stung and it hurt like the devil, had flu like symptoms next day, the neighbor turned off the pool pump but was attacked and could not remove the nest.

I waited for quotes on Wasp Nest Removal and after praying and asking Ginny to pray, I was sitting here and I thought, I think I will text the lawn mower guy, that is his name because Bob can't remember Robby, which was bobs son name, but can understand lawn mower guy.. 

I sent text, asking if he could, he said I will do it for 50 dollars, I replied can you do it now, his reply was I am on the way.

He was here 5 minutes, sprayed them, smashed with a towel, snatched nest down and left, LEAVING the NEST on the ground...the nest is gone but ONE wasp is trying to get in the breaker box and chases me when I go to open/close it.

Friday appt with derm doc, and I am treating my squamous carcinomas with chemo cream for 4 weeks.

That's all folks. I have to go put gas in the Kia, its been 4 months to use 3/4 of a tank.

Will hit Wal-Mart for gas and a few items if I can remember how to shop
