JAYNE WITH A WHY


My life has endured some drastic changes over the past 5yrs. I've moved continents, moved countries, lost my partner in life, lost my dogs, lost the bikes & no doubt about it, lost more than a few marbles along the way. I'm fucked up but valiantly fighting off sanity, which snaps at my heels at regular intervals. I swear a lot. Tell someone who cares.

OUTTA HERE

The good news is I'm gradually getting the use of my right hand back - yay! It's still got a nice chunky lump on the knuckles, but thankfully it's not paining half as much as what it was.


The best news is that as of tomorrow we're outta Schleppalale* for a couple of weeks. The bags are packed & ready to load into T2:

One Tour pack liner bag & the 2 pannier bags for an ElectraGlide UltraClassic which we'll collect in Berlin
In these bags I've had to pack enough jeans, T-shirts, socks & rods for a trip around Europe. It hasn't been easy, but I'm taking an extra bag to strap onto the tour pack, so's we can buy T-shirts from the various HD dealers we might happen to stop by :-)

So my fellow infidels/peasants/bitches or strangers who stumble across my blawg, getcha knives out in preparation for aiming them at my back, 'cos Hubs & myself are off to Berlin, Germany, where we'll pick up the rental 'Glide & hook up with Mikey, Mahmoud & TLT from the Sandpit.


After a night in Berlin, we head for Prague.

Then Bratislava.

Then Budapest.

Then Zagreb.

Then Saltzburg.

Then Innsbruk.

Then Nuremberg.

And finally.....................

Back to Berlin for a couple of days.


Am I excited?
You wouldn't chuckle!

I'll bore y'all with details (sordid if necessary) of the tour & a whole heap of photos when we get back.

Until then, be good, do it quietly & take the knives out please, cos I bleed easily!

I REALLY DON'T NEED THIS................

Last Wednesday, whilst performing my DWA* duties (as I have no slave) I klapped** my right hand on the bathroom door.
I let out a few choice swear words, 'cos it bloody well hurt.
I had quite a bit to do, so didn't pay much more attention to my hand.
Until about 5pm, when I realised it wasn't as 'flexible' as it should be.

On Thursday, I went to the dokotela, as my hand was swollen & friggin painful.

"Ahhh, looks like you've broken a bone" said the sister on duty.
Blinding, just what I bloody well don't need right now.

Several X-rays & a consultation later, the dokotela informs me it's not broken, but I've ruptured a blood vessel.

Five days later, my hand looks like this:



And it's still friggin painful!
I never realised just how useless I am without the use of my right hand.

*sigh*
