Today was a LONG day, and now we are back on Long Island, and I can take inventory of my day.
Oh....and share it with you!
The 4 hour drive to the Yankee Candle Factory went very well.
I drove most of the way, and then I had to lay my head down and rest, so I slept in the bed in back of my van.
I awoke to my mom and Penny saying "Barb, we're here!"
We walked thru the doors to find scores of candle displays EVERYWHERE!
Tons of "stuff" to look at. I decided to "walk" instead of using a wheelchair. (mistake #1.)
We walked around seeing new displays, and smelling a variety of scented candles that we never heard of before.
I totally thought this was the start of a really fun day!
Mom and Penny and I even took silly touristy photo's in there and everything!
THEN..... Like a turd lying in a punch bowl....
Things started to go downhill.
I started getting light headed and ill. I think the overwhelming scents of all of those candles really got me.
My face was clammy, my stomach hurt, my head hurt, I was going downhill very fast, and had to get out of there and grab some air.
I didn't want Penny to know how really bad I was doing, so I stepped outside, and when I came back in, I tried real hard to smile, and be brave.
My mom suggested that we get me a wheelchair. So we did.
and that my friends is where THE FUN BEGINS!
My beautiful wife Penny decided that she would
When wheeling someone in a wheelchair,
make sure you Judge the DAMN DISPLAYS!
NEVER accidently get distracted by looking at those beautiful displays
and AIM the poor bastid' in the wheelchair at a STORE EMPLOYEE!!
It's bad for business, and it really sucks if you were expecting an employee discount!
After taking my regular meds,
I am adding PAIN KILLERS TONIGHT!!
