Think I will take the Pepper with me.

drive safe.

Good Freaking Morning.

Didn't get the forms to have signed until 2pm.
Got to the hospital in Tulsa at 4pm. HE TOLD US THE WRONG HOSPITAL!
Let Pepper out on leash to go do her stuff...She went in the grass right where I pointed, Good Girl.
Going to work on her training so can ask her if she needs to go or not like my 1st golden, Penny.
It took an hour to go to the correct hospital and it was only 7miles. 5 o'clock traffic and LONG lights.
Also found his room in the hospital is the farthest as you can possibly get to in the hospital, parr.
After filling out and having him sign the HIPPAA form went to his apartment.

Only 4 miles from the hospital but took me almost an hour.
Have never been to his apartment, and the directions were WRONG.
He address even shows up on the wrong block in google maps. And it is in a square mile of apartments.
Finally found it and there is a special way you have to jiggle the key and push and pull on the door to open
Took 30 minutes and got help from the next door neighbor that he was helping move.

Girl next do has spent two days trying to find his car (it still had some of her stuff in it) and has not.
He was following her and she noticed him missing, then found him by calling the hospitals.
Evidently he started following another car instead of hers.

Drug all the stuff in off his porch that he had taken out of his van to help her move. It was a LOT.
It was had to find room, he only has a path thru his apartment. And has the nerve to tell me my house need cleaned (not that it doesn't).
Took a while to find the stuff he wanted and the registration for his van.
Also found his iPhone which he thought he lost in the accident. It was on his desk.
He also did not have his hearing aids, which I can NOT understand why he would go anywhere without his phone and hearing aids.
Took Pepper for a walk, about a block to go get his mail. Thought there might be a letter from impound, Nope.
Pepper did her stuff and thoroughly enjoyed meeting the girl next door and the walk to the mailbox.

Then set off to find a copy shop to copy the paperwork. Noticed it is now 9pm.
Another fiasco trying to find the Fedex copy/print shop. There was a Hooters where Siri said it was.
It was in the same shopping center, but the lights on their sign were off, parr again.
Another person came in and commented the dog in that SUV just said Hello to me, didn't bark, said the actual word, Hello.
The FedEx girl gave me the copies I needed free, she liked the video I have of Pepper saying "Hello"!

Swung back by his apartment to leave the car paperwork originals and pick uo his phone.
Talked to the neighbor. Got her number. Today she it going to drive by all the impound lots in Claremore.

Went back by the hospital to drop off the stuff I picked up for Bob.
Walking to his room I saw a sign that said West Nursing Station.
I could have sworn that at a glance it said Wet Nursing Station.

Leaving the hospital couldn't let Pepper do her stuff. There was an opossum ambling around near the Cayenne.
Put home in the NAV on the Cayenne to get the quickest way out of Tulsa. It said arrival time 12:30am.
After 11:30 there is nothing on the highway between Tulsa and OKC besides trucks, most of them were FedEx.
Stopped at a Whataburger near home and got home at 1pm.

good morning. WOW long night for you. I declare it to be Richard gets a nap day!

To be completely honest...
I am just too nice. There is not one thing my brother Bob has ever actually done for me.

Found out that my other brother, Tom PAID Bob to stay with me while I was immobilized with my foot thing so Mom could go visit my sister for two weeks. Doc said to stay in bed with my foot elevated above my heart and only get up to go to the restroom or he would have to amputate just below the knee.

Bob didn't do one thing while staying to "help."

Never fixed a meal. Had to get it myself. Even when asked to go pick up something up...I would call it in, he would go to the restaurant, eat, then do I don't know what, and finally bring me something home 3 to 4 hours later and cold. And me needing to eat within a specific time because of diabetes. He claimed he got lost. The restaurant is 3 miles away AND he lived in OKC for 20 years.

Had my SIL doing all the grocery shopping so he didn't have to do that, thank goodness.

When the dishes needed done, he put them all away in the cabinets, dirty. Didn't even get them wet!

He was going to take me to a doc appointment. Before we got out of the driveway I saw both the oil and water dummy lights were on. He had be driving it I don't know how long on those extra long trips to get food. Made him pull back in the garage and then had to top them off myself because "He didn't know how." That was the last time I let him use my rover. Drove myself to the doc. Luckily I could put my right foot on the dash and drive the rover with my left so my foot would be above my heart. I didn't want to loose it.

Oh, and was able to set the upper volume limit on my stereo the TV went thru or he would have turned to so loud it would have fried the speakers. And even then I used the app on my phone to turn t down when I was across the house in my room with the door shut trying to sleep.

So just not real happy about taking a days vacation, so far, to go help him because he had an accident.

family. you just have to put up with them.

Good Hump day morning all. Almost lunch time! ;)

Gee, Richard, you sure know how to have fun.

Tulsa is a weird town to get around in. Glad you made it home safe.

oh goodie I just got the notice to renew the tabs on the RDX. It needs and emissions test. It had better pass the tabs are due next week.

Sorry, just felt like venting.

Can thank Bob for turning me off deer hunting.

Told me he was going to take me deer hunting during archery season when I was a teen.
Camoed my bow, and actually made camo gear, jacket, pants etc. Yes I can sew.
Built my own target and practiced a LOT from a tree in our lots.
Even bought some high dollar, for me, arrows to hunt with.
Come hunting season Bob not only didn't take me, but took my hunting arrows under false pretenses and used my deer tag as well.
So decided F him and his deer hunting.
Spending his families last penny on a hunting trip despite his wife and two boys was why she divorced him.

Did take my bow on my Boy Scout troop hikes. Took a .22 rifle as well.

Used the bow for trout fishing, tasty. Better than that freeze dried stuff. Also a lot faster than trying to use a hook and line of fly fishing. There was good reason for that archery merit badge.

Got a bobcat and a velvet tailed rattlesnake with the .22. Our troop got $75 for the bobcat pelt because the area was overpopulated. We only saw the one. We weren't really hunting though.

The rattlesnake tasted like greasy chicken. and the skin tanned nicely for our meeting room. Refused to try the squirrel the guy got that carried a 410 shotgun. Even though our scoutmaster did know how to cook wild game very well. Couldn't believe he thought he was going to get a bobcat with that 410 though.

no need to be sorry for the vent. We all need to once in a while. Just glad you are back home safe.

Oh yeah,

I also carried one of the bulky Kodak Browny Hawkeye cameras on those hiking trips.

I am amazed at the stuff we did with the equipment we had and how much more fun and easier it would have been with the cool stuff they have today.

Our tents were canvas and had wooden poles! On long hikes we just packed a plastic tarp to make our own lean tos to keep dry. None of this fancy rip stop nylon stuff. Or super lightweight tents, bags, mats, etc. Even my new backpack was canvas. My hiking boots were tennis shoes.

When on my order of he arrow initiation they had us grab anything we thought we might need. It was dry, but in the middle of the night they came around making thunder sounds and dumping a bucket of water on each camper to make them uncomfortable. When I heard the thunder noises I just rolled over so the underside of my old sleeping back was up. When they dumped the bucket of water on me, I didn't even wake up because the underside of my bag was rubberized and the water just splashed off.

The kids love deer hunting. They like being outside though.

Jacob isn't old enough to carry a deer rifle even though WI would let him legally hunt at 9. I don't doubt he could shoot a deer but he isn't big enough to manage one properly all day. I think he could take a deer under 25 yards with a handgun actually.

I think they like the whole hiking, shooting, eating, talking with family, eating, riding along to other places to hunt, eating, creek stomping, eating...

There is nothing like fresh curds from the vat at Fayette. Like scooped from the vat into a bag for us still dripping whey fresh and warm. And the jerkey, the landjaegers, baked goods, chocolate milk, burgers and fries and so on. Good thing venison is lean.

My brother loves deer hunting with bow and arrow in Alabama. The state has a "limit" of one buck and one doe per day. He has taken two in a day and was exhausted from field dressing it, and lugging it back to camp. He quit counting after 100 deer had been on the roof of his VW camper van. 18 in one season is his record for a year. I never cared much for hunting. I have killed just one deer, and it was with my 911. Hopefully I will not get any more, ever.

We usually only get three per season for our family. Good lean meat and the last steaks the kids made were really tender and juicy. They used Mesquite last time. It was like NY Strip but with flavor.

The fun part is the "hunt" once you cross over to "find" is when the work begins.

Evidently Alabama does not even use a "deer tag." They have more deer in the state than people. They need to cull the herd. We need longer deer hunts around here, way too many deer are in the area.

WI used to be ripe with deer but then the DNR went a little wacko. When I was a we lad we would see 60-70 deer the first hour opening morning. We hardly see that many all year now.

So the Do Not Resuscitate went wacko? Did they go resuscitate folks against their will? I am confused.

The enforced the do not resuscitate on all the deer in the state. This is the organization:

more saga...

Went to EMSA (ambulance company) today.

First, the form Tom gave me to show permission to get where he was picked up had Tom's info on it not mine so no go.

Second they looked it up in their system and have no record of picking up or transporting a Bob or Bobby Davis. In fact they only transported one Davis in the Tulsa area and it was a female.

Trip yesterday and today was a waste of time, Parr.
