RV Still Sick....... I'm Antsy.......And Can't Breathe

Ants in my pants...... did that expression come from the word Antsy.
Actually it's the other way around. It began in Southern USA in the early 20th Century from the phrase Ants in pants.

Can you tell I'm bored.

The RV is still in the shop and really cutting into our traveling time. Plus our weather has been and is still rainy, hot and humid. That's terrible for my COPD, just can't breathe.

I've always been in control of my life. I've been a schedule follower. I've lived with determination of achieving my goals. I've never been knocked down from illness for more than a week. I've never had COPD before!!!!

My whole life has changed and it's hard to accept and even harder to adjust. Explaining to others is frustrating so I avoid it. I don't want pity I just want understanding. I'm not sick I just can't breathe.

When I get behind the wheel of that huge machine, my huge machine, called a RV, I feel powerful. I forget about breathing and oxygen and treatments and coughing. I just drive. All my attention is on driving. I love it. It's wonderful therapy for me. And the beautiful country I'm seeing is an added bonus.

The man I love more than life and my two precious dogs just look at me with happiness on their faces cause they know Momma is having fun. It's a good feeling.

I hope the weather clears soon. I hope my RV is home soon. I hope I can breathe soon.
