Right Back Where We Started From...

Its almost noon on Friday, we are back in Alexandria, Louisiana. We arrived at about 5am this morning after more than 5 hours on the road. We finally got to touch a patient after a week of waiting. We took a bariatric lady from this really nice con home in San Antonio 308 miles to Vidor, TX. And what are we greeted with after a week of waiting? A huge belch as we enter her room. Perfect. But she was nice enough, the ride was fine. After we drop her off @ her podunk little apartment, we find out we are being redeployed to Tyler, TX. Another 5 hour drive. We stopped @ Target and bought some sorely needed supplies. We had some real TX bbq @ Fat Mac's BBQ. We then started for Tyler. We stopped at a truck stop and paid $9 for a much needed shower. About 100 miles into the trip we learn there is a _change in plans_. We are to return to Louisiana. Great. An additional 4 hours of driving. All told I think I drove about 700 miles yesterday. So now we are right back where we started. Looks like rain...perfect.
