So, looks like my son and I will not be riding for a month or so due to a crazy couple of weeks.
Week before last our oldest son ended up in the ER with gall stones and a gallbladder that needed to come out. On that Thursday they shaved his tummy and pulled his gallbladder out through a tiny hole in his belly button. His wife had way too much fun watching them shave his tummy! He went home last Saturday. With a loving wife and a pair of daughters there to tend to him, Carolyn and I headed out for a fun Saturday night in Texas - one week ago today.
We rode 250 miles of back roads getting to Luckenbach, catching up with our favorite Texas Country singer, Bart Crow. The plan was to just catch a motel room somewhere nearby after the show and come home Sunday. However there was so much going on in the area, no room was found. So, I cut my drinking way short and we headed home after the show.
We stopped at Buc-ee's in Bastrop for gas about 2:00 Sunday morning and I grabbed a large cup of coffee along with a few jalapeño sausage and cheese kolaches. Oh they were good n spicy! But turned out to be real expensive too! By the time we got home my gut was starting to turn, but by Sunday afternoon I thought I was okay again.
Now the wife was napping by the time we got to Buc-ee's so she did not eat kolaches. Guess what she fixed for supper Sunday night? Yup, jalapeño sausage, beans n rice. Good stuff!
By Monday morning my gut had me curled up like a baby when I wasn't trying to decide which end of me needed to be facing the toilet! By Tuesday I was in the ER. I'll be danged if the Sugar Land ER folks didn't treat me just like the Katy ER folks treated my son a week earlier ... shaved my tummy and pulled my gallbladder out through my belly button!
What are the odds, father and son gallbladders one week apart?
So, here were sitting in a pair of recliners with daughter/granddaughters tend to us while the wifes giggle about shaved tummies! Both of us restricted to lifting no more than 10 pounds for a month, my Wing and his Valkyrie starting to gather dust in the garage.
This is going to be one long month for us!
