Mad, you getting brittle already? Take your vitamins and drink your milk, k?
We had the storms roll through. They could have been worse, glad they weren't. A lot of rain, a lot of wind, a little hail, a little thunder and some really close hitting lightening...as in it boomed on the next block up the hill as I'm still seeing the flash
Scared the bejeezus out of me and the dog spectating at the front door 
We danced around the front door like a buncha chickens, giggling. Well I was giggling, he was just tap dancing and hopping around in his excited way. Then he rolled around on the carpet.
Will be picking up my Inlaws in a half hour (unless there are more flight delays). They're in town for two weeks and staying with my bro in law. Dinner tonight with all of us should be good. Only thing missing is the guy I married that got me hooked up with this bunch. MIL already said she wants me to caption our vacation photos. Trouble is, I don't remember half the names of places we went!
What can I say we had wine with lunch and dinner and beer in between for two weeks straight. I was lucky I could tie my shoes

1849 - Abraham Lincoln received a patent for the floating dry dock.

1947 - The Truman Doctrine was enacted by the U.S. Congress to appropriate military and economic aid Turkey and Greece.

2002 - In Birmingham, AL, a jury convicted former Ku Klux Klansman Bobby Frank Cherry of murder in the 1963 church bombing that killed four girls.

Efforts and courage are not enough without purpose and direction.

Have a great day!

Greetings. Had a trip this wknd...all was well until we were about 40 min from hm. A van ran a stop sign onto the highway in front of us. I managed to avoid the van which had several passengers with beer cans visible. The van spun out of control into the center median.
Since that incident I keep waking up from a dream where I'm swerving...and swerving. Can't seem to shake it.Its to the point where I feel its not worth the risk. Need to make some changes.

Evening all. Finally getting out of the hole called West Memphis. We finished today in spite of the threatening sky. We fought this stupid rain for 6 weeks and today when we walked into the lobby of the hotel and the local news was showing no rain in the forecast for the next 7 days.

This rain's getting on my nerves.
Took a picture of a big tom turkey boot-scootin' across my garden chasing after his girlfriend. Notice he's knee deep in the mud.
