The Good The Bad & The Ugly

This & the next three posts I call the Good, The Bad, & the Ugly. GOD is GOOD.
Look at the next post to see the Bad & then go on to the Ugly.
We finished up at Amazon.com & it was something. I may do it again I am not sure. They said we shipped more this year than ever before. They plan to bring in twice as many Workampers next year, than this time, they had 500 this time. Amazon said they learned a lot this time & it will be better next time.
The weather was very cold in KY, colder than normal for the fall of the year. We had a good campground which Amazon paid for. I would like to see that part of KY when the weather is better. So do we do it again, we will see. We may sell Christmas Trees next year, we will see. We could sell trees in South Texas or FL that would be nice.

The Bad

We had stopped for fuel in Jackson Mississippi, then Wilma came around the side of the trailer after walking Tank & said we only have one wheel on this side. I told her that was not a good joke. She said I am not joking. We had lost not only a tire, but the wheel also. We do not know how long it had been gone, as you can see the studs are gone also, no putting the spare on. This was on 12-24-10, everything was closing. We saw a W-M close by and drove there very slowly. I taking to the men in the tire & wheel area, they said they could do nothing. I went in to see the Manager & he said we could stay on their lot till Monday, which would be 12-27-10. We spent Christmas at Wal-Mart & they were closed.
Monday we were able to move to a Tire & Wheel Shop & have it fixed took from 9:00 AM till 4:30 PM, as they had to get some more parts. This is just part of life.

Two Small Toes

I now have two small toes, as you can see my 4th toe is the same size as my small toe. The good thank is it does not take as long to cut my toenails, as it did. I can only count to 19 & 3/4. If I have a pedicure I should get a discount. That is an ugly foot.

Ugly

You can see the wound is closing up. As of now it is closed up, of course it is now 1-10-11. I have on shoes. Wore shoes for the first time to church Sunday, that is I wore shoes for the first time after having my toe taken off. Life is good we are looking forward to getting some things done around our house in Texas & doing some work on the trailer. Will take the truck in Tuesday to have it serviced.
