Tired Duck

For all of us, who have drained themselves physically, emotionally, or have been overwhelmed this is for you. As you can see by my pic I am a tired duck. Went to Napa with Lucy, ooopppsss I am Lucy I meant Ethel on Friday and had a blast. Our last stop of the day was to go see this beautiful castle where every young girl or old duck would love to be married in. Hopefully Ethel will post some pics, put she was pretty busy trying to make sure I stayed upright not alcohol, just M.S. and taking pictures of flowers that was absolutely driving me crazy. Why?! There is no bathroom at this castle, well they may have had some but the castle was closed and we needed to fine a bathroom quickly. We had some interesting conversations, like coming up with alias names from the freeway signs. Don't know when we will use that, but I stored mine in my phone because I knew if I didn't I would not remember. Then we tried saying our names with Don Diego as our last name. That was pretty funny you should try it you don't drag it out like ddddddddddoooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn ddddddddddiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeegggggggggggoooooooooooooooo. It has to be said quickly and with confidence. I bet you are doing it right now. Oh and as we are leaving for Napa and Ethel is driving I am the co-pilot. lol Right I can't find my way out of a paper bag. We stopped at the information center in Napa to get maps which we really didn't need because all the wineries were just off the highway. Now I have no sense of direction, I can't see, blind as a bat, with no glasses, and the dots that you follow on the map are not accurate, yep not at all. On more than one occasion I had to yell at Ethel that oooppps we just passed it. Well she was not happy and having to get back across the highway was enough to wish you had written your last will and testament. I'm yelling no cars on the right no cars on the right, well anytime you say something to Ethel a song starts to play in her head. Pants on the floor, pants on the floor seriously! We eventually made it across the highway without a scratch, truly amazing! Well Ethel has more medical conditions than anyone I know. She seems to add one each day like you would find a penny on the ground, seriously. She is the most perky, happy person I know The total opposite of Lucy
who rarely sees her, glass 1/2 full. Heck she has to use plastic glasses now because she keeps dropping the glass ones. Whose laughs because she cracks herself up more than anybody else.
So if your tired, rest. if you are in pain take your pain medication with a glass of wine, if you are overwhelmed stop listening to or reading news because they only tell us things are going to get worse. So consider yourself pretty lucky right now, I do, because Ethel has faced it all and still is, and she is still so darn perky and happy and won't let you feel any other way. But I am still going to buy the button we found that said die perky one die. jk
