Blogger Was Off

Elkmont, Alabama

Weather: low 64 degrees, high 72 degrees, cloudy, rain showers

Blogger, the service I use to publish the blog every day, was out of service last night. As a result, yesterday's post was published this morning, while tonight's post went out at it's usual time. So, if you think you might have missed a day, you probably did. But, the posts should all be there.

It was very difficult for me to go to sleep last night, as it seemed like I couldn't relax. I was more tired than usual, so maybe the news that treatment for Amyloidosis will start Monday had me a little wired up. It's been a long struggle to find out what's wrong with me, then another struggle to find someone that knew how to treat it. But, we feel good about the direction things are going.

We received a call that a window screen we had made for the house was ready to be picked up in Pulaski, so we went up there to get it. While there, we picked up a few things at the local WalMart Mall, which is Carolyn's favorite store of the chain.

We stopped at McDonald's for a quick lunch. The Pulaski area has many Amish families living there, and we have seen them several times, riding the streets in their horse drawn carriages. Today, there was a large group of them at McDonald's, eating lunch and enjoying their kids' antics in the indoor play area. As we left, we looked for their horse drawn carriages, but didn't find them. Carolyn pointed out a bus in the parking lot, and said maybe they hired the bus to take them somewhere. Each family group had a different color that seemed to identify the particular family. Interesting people who choose to live the old way in a modern world full of conveniences.

By the time we got home, I was wiped out, so a nap was in order. It is amazing how much a short nap helps my fatigue problem.

More later, be safe.
