INTRO TO THIS WEEK >>
As you know, last week’s blog was sent on Sat instead of Fri, I heard from my dear friend, Liisa Pyke, asking if I was alright, since she did not see my blog. Thanks for your caring and concern, Liisa, so good of you.
I was thinking about heading East toward the gulf and New Orleans, but, because of the Corona drama in Eastern Texas, I won’t. I’ve already been on that route, anyway, and really my heart desires the West. So, I switched direction and now heading back to Big Bend National Park.
I love it at Big Bend. But, good thing I have Google on my phone. I looked it up and Big Bend Park is closed. And I really like it there. Well, next time.
So, after that, I decided I will go back to New Mexico to see my dear friend Cheeta. Then, perhaps back to the parks in Utah. I could never get enough are those parks in that state.
When heading out earlier I stopped at a McDonald’s to work on the blog, I can still hook in and use their WiFi. There are still serving food through their drive-through, but, not one person came through and no one parked there. An employee actually came out and told me I had to leave. This world is getting so strange.
A fun drive today across Texas. Mostly flat with many cows, as you’ll see from the photos. I’m heading back to New Mexico, but first, I want to go back to Big Bend National Park, hopefully, it’s open. You’ll find out as I find out. It was closed as you already read.
One of these for dinner tonight?
Very strange to be out driving. I went through some small towns and I saw no people, also I saw a no vehicles, like a ghost town—very very strange—kind of eerie. Where did the people go!
In one of the small towns I went to, they had the grass so I pulled out my juggling clubs and threw them around. Later, four office workers came out and told me I made their day. I let them know my story and there were quite impressed, nice. But, my juggling is still lacking.
Yes, I can still juggle.

WORDS TO INSPIRE YOU! >>
Motivation is how we get things done. And achieve big goals in life. Unfortunately, it’s a finite resource – we can run out of motivation unless we replenish it daily.
Listening to music that motivates us, using positive affirmations, reading motivational books and listening to podcasts can all make us want to jump right back up again.
Because a lot of staying motivated comes from feeding yourself with a steady diet of things that motivate. I hope my weekly blog helps you.
Sometimes, simply reading through a list of motivational words and contemplating what they mean to you, is a great way to feed your mind with positive motivation.
So, here is a list of more than 200 (I keep adding to it!) single motivational words that have been compiled to inspire and motivate you.

MY DAILY JOTTINGS >>
4/3—Back to staying with Shasta, Sondra and Trea. Like I wrote before, their land is like in a forest, so I fit right in. Thank you so much, ladies, for letting me stay here for a bit.
Today is my anniversary! On this date in 1982 I was hit by a truck and went through a 37-day coma.
Did you see >> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lr8QFnD1yGc&t=57s
Right now I’m typing using my voice on the cell phone. I’ve never done this before, it’s so easy.
4/6—Couldn’t take it anymore, how do you get back. Not knowing what the future will hold about charging up my devices, I am actually writing this now with a pen and paper and will transfer it later onto my computer.
Mooooo!
I’m parked near a lake after I went North. The weather is getting warmer, I have no idea where I’m going through. I will sleep here for the night, next to the lake, with a smile on my face—as I am back in nature again.
LONG and straight roads in Texas.
I feel bad that so many bugs are killed while I am driving.
I like writing a blog using my voice. It goes directly onto Gmail, then I will move it into something else and edit. As I said before, I’m just learning now how to do voice typing, and I’m glad to take you along for the ride. I see that doing it this way, I might put on some long blogs.
Nice Flowers along the road.
I can charge my phone while I drive, so I don’t have to worry about charging up my computer.
It’s a little after 7 right now, I will do some reading and some writing and I will think of you. Hope you sleep well, bye for now.
5/7—So, today was the day I called about Big Bend, they were closed, makes me sad.
So I guess we’ll be off to see Cheeta tomorrow or the next day. What is an interesting life I lead?
4/8—Very warm today, over 80 degrees. Yes, back in Roswell, New Mexico. To see my friend, Cheeta, once again. This town is very flat, I plan to do a lot of bike riding.
Very fast speeds in Texas.
My ankle, where I spilled boiling water anointed, it’s getting worse. The pain today is excruciating. When it happened right away a big blister developed. Now the whole foot is swelling up and painful. Makes me want to rush to the hospital to have her checked, I’m not scared. I’ll let you know what happens of course.
It ended up that I did go to a hospital and have it checked out. They really did not do anything for me, and yet I had to wait hours. The doctor determined that it was not infected and should heal alright.
4/9, 10—THE WORLD IS SO VERY STRANGE RIGHT NOW.
Hardly any people visible anywhere in the area, people aren’t even out running. How long can this last?

MY CHALLENGE FOR YOU THIS WEEK >>
A big one this week. You have time right now, go through your entire house and get rid of what you are not using. Totally clear your home out if needed. Living in a van, I have learned that living with less makes a much better life.
**************************
NEXT BLOG>>
Hopefully, we will all get back to life by next week.
If you need someone to talk with, I would love to be that person. Call me, please – 610-400-3233.
