Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
Song by Elton John

When are you gonna come down?
When are you going to land?
I should have stayed on the farm
I should have listened to my old man
You know you can’t hold me forever
I didn’t sign up with you
I’m not a present for your friends to open
This boy’s too young to be singing
The blues, ah, ah
So goodbye yellow brick road
Where the dogs of society howl
You can’t plant me in your penthouse
I’m going back to my plough
Back to the howling old owl in the woods
Hunting the horny back toad
Oh, I’ve finally decided my future lies
Beyond the yellow brick road
Ah, ah
What do you think you’ll do then?
I bet they’ll shoot down the plane
It’ll take you a couple of vodka and tonics
To set you on your feet again
Maybe you’ll get a replacement
There’s plenty like me to be found
Mongrels who ain’t got a penny
Sniffing for tidbits like you
On the ground, ah, ah
So goodbye yellow brick road
Where the dogs of society howl
You can’t plant me in your penthouse
I’m going back to my plough
Back to the howling old owl in the woods
Hunting the horny back toad
Oh, I’ve finally decided my future lies
Beyond the yellow brick road
Ah, ah

Hi in Oz. Home all day and did a whole lot of nothing.🤷‍♀️ Rain this morning, husband and friends drove an hour to the golf course, tried to wait it out, gave up, went to breakfast and back home by 10:30.😏 So we’ve just been chillin’.

Have a good evening, hugs back to you and Poppy.🤗💖

On the way to rehab I picked up a sausage and pepper pizza along with an antipasto salad. The salad is enough to feed a small army. Too much food. It’s a good thing I did this because I found hubby shaking all over. He had not eaten anything all day. He could barely hold on to the pizza. Why the nurses didn’t give him something to drink and to nibble is anyone’s guess. He had no water, yet there was unopened soda on top of the dresser. There were cookies on the night- stand, yet no one thought of opening the cellophane. This is something I do not worry about during the week. Administration will get an ear full on Monday. There is no rhyme or reason for this to continually occur. Long story short, he loved the pizza and after a couple of hours there was no more shaking. I also brought strawberries, blueberries and grapes which he ate. Before leaving, I put everything into a bag and left them on the tray table. I surmise the nurses will throw these away even though they were purchased the day prior at Costco.

On the way to see hubby today will make a brief stop at our favorite Asian takeout. I may also pickup some ice cream from Culvers. Or, may go without culvers and go directly from take out to rehab. Culvers is only two miles from the rehab, so going out later is no big deal.

Just heard that one of my favorite stores is going out of business. Christmas Tree Shops is best known on Cape Cod where they began many years ago. One of my favorite places to stop when the traffic was heavy, was the Windmill at Sagamore Bridge. This one and the one in Falmouth were closed recently. A husband and wife team on Cape started their business in Yarmouth, Ma.. A small building with a barn and very little parking. But, it wasn’t the buying that got me there, but rather the hometown feel. There were no strangers, only friends. These stores all felt like home and the people who worked there became like family to their customers. The couple sold their business to Bed,Bath and Beyond to an all cash deal of 200k., Though they had children, none of them wanted to work seven days/wk.. Just about a year ago, BBB sold the business to another Ma. couple and just as recently as yesterday, found they are selling out.
I am now hoping that this once family business will again return. The husband and wife team is now a single. The husband past a few years ago with cancer. One of the sons did open a gift shop in the very first building in Yarmouth. So many changes since the pandemic, and to lose even one store on the Cape is extremely sad.

@kittengirl,

Good Morning Kitten wishing you a great Sunday. 💕🌹

Good day on the Gulf Coast of Florida. ✨😎🌹I did read your post from yesterday.
I hope today is a good day for you with your hubby.

Oodie you do a lot of running here and there and still manage three different homes. ✨🌹
I would love to be on Cape Cod now with just a cup of coffee walking on the beach.
Due to fear of sharks I will not go swimming I can see me being in Jaws. LOL! I am kidding.

Today small projects and then I am in the wind. ✨😎

Let me know how things are going and I do hope you are sleeping well. Oodie I am almost
done with the meds. ✨
