Tim, Tanya, Jonathan, Dottee, and Mollee
Friday was an interesting day. Mother was leaving the hospital and going to rehab. Tim, Tanya, and Jonathan met Mother at the Rehab Center in Piedmont and got her settled in. Then to the Barnes house to pack for T-town. No trouble on the ride to T-town. We are able to get in the lot by 6:30. We unloaded the car, set up the RV and wait for Ivan to arrive.
Ivan arrives and we meet Nicolette and Jada at Mugshots for dinner. Dinner was great as usual and then it was off to Publix for our weekly trip for grilling supplies. Why we do not win Publix’s tailgater of the week amazes me! Next stop, Twice the Ice! Even though it is cool, we still need ice for drinks.
Since Bama’s game is a early kickoff, we are having breakfast casserole. Nicolette is taking it to her house and will cook it before returning on Saturday morning.
Friday night around midnight, the Rehab center called and Mother was not doing well and they were sending her to the ER in Gadsden. Her O2SAT is low. Tanya had to call Daddy so he could go with Mother to the ER. Saturday morning we called to check on them and they were STILL in the ER. Nicolette and Jada arrived with the casserole. Everyone was still in their pajamas. Tanya calls Mother’s doctor and leaves a message for him. Nan and Ellen arrived. We are still putting away beds because we have been trying to find out information about Mother. We began to set up outside. Janis, Randy, Hunter and Brianna arrive. Finally we get everything set up. We called Mother’s sister Ann and she was going to check in on her. We also called David and Elaine. Ivan decided to skip the ballgame and go to Gadsden. Tanya sent Phil a message to let him know Mother was back in the hospital. In the meantime, Steve, Amy, James, Leah, and Isabella arrived. Phil called and he was also going to Gadsden. Things settled down and it was game time.
A new problem, as if we didn’t have enough. We can’t find the bike lock keys. We searched and searched. Finally decide they are in the Xterra which is in Anniston. John, next door, beat the lock off the bike rack. Tim and Tanya are off to the game. Tanya stopped at the Corner, Gingers and the Supe Store before finding a lock. On to the ballgame. In the meantime, Mother had gotten admitted and into a room. Daddy has gone home to rest. Ivan is keep us updated through phone calls and text messages. She is stable and getting oxygen.
Bama won-45-0. WHOOOOOOO, Tim left the game early to go to the RV and get the kabobs ready for grilling. Back at the RV, its time to grill. Ginger, next door, is grilling pizzas. YUM! Pizzas were great. The best I have ever eaten. The kabobs were great. A great season of football and tailgating.
Since the BAMA game began at 11:21, everyone was tired and we had an early evening. Even Dottee and Mollee were tired!
Saturday night, Jonathan work up Tanya and Tim because it was raining and storming. The awning was out and the wind was BAD. At 330 AM, Tim and Jonathan were outside rolling up the awning. It rained and rained, but NO LEAKS! YEA!
Sunday morning, Tim went for papers. The pack up and clean up process began. Pack up and clean up was easy. We dumped the tanks and filled up with fresh water so the RV would be heavier and easier to drive home in the WIND! The trip home was uneventful.
In two weeks, it is onto the ATL for the SEC Championship game. WHOOOOOOOO
Till……. December 5 RTR
