May calmness and happiness reign at Ed's house.
A fine day so far. About a week ago I felt a tearing burning sensation in my right foot, where previously I had been told I had a plantar's wart.
Well it wasn't a wart it was fasciitis, something tore off the heel bone and easy cure, wear this boot. He laughed at me as we were talking about tractors, and said let's go to plan B, which in one third of the time works. Two novacaine type injections in my heel. Feel nothing down there now.
I had started to limp so I knew I had to get in there and he got me in the same day, actually one hour later after I called, nice lady, so I took her some extra Florida citrus I had gotten in yesterday and the staff was delighted. So like LS I'm supposed to take it easy. Un huh. Well not hard to ride in the cab and not use my right foot? I was thinking of running the subsoiler through the fields, probably hasn't been done in a long time.
Good seat time, helps drainage. I mean, what's the difference between sitting here and sitting in the tractor?
Well, of course, it's better out there...
Today reminded me of how much I am falling apart. Pieces of me are coming apart...
picked up a good supply of Bertie (County) peanuts as house gifts and I think I'm done my errands.
Car was back in front of my garage when I got home. Crazy cruise control issue thankfully was defeatable, it actually
was called Audi Assistant, or some such fluff, and in the vernacular of the day, I can tell this assistant that You're Fired!
I still have adaptive cruise and Lane Assist, so the car will steer itself, even around curves, but not all that well, nor do they say it will.
Really for keeping you from running off most roads, like in a falling asleep accident. I really don't like that function either because the road confuses the cameras and the steering is always making minute adjustments, ones I don't want. Sometimes you want to get over to the right of your lane like when an oversize load is coming. Or even another truck. System wants to keep you in the middle and it ping pongs too much for me. But if I were getting tired, I'd sure turn it on.
For US drivers Cadillac still has the best assisted driving car out there, though they just announced they were cancelling the only car that had that feature, but allegedly it will work its way into less expensive models.
Pearl Harbor sent both my Father and my Uncle into the war in the South Pacific. I am ever so grateful they both came home.
