Wordless Wednesday


We got at least 4 inches overnight



Thank God for these drains we'd put in about ten years ago! We put in three of them and let me tell you, they've saved us from flooding in the house. We were flooded out once...we learn quick!
What a Nasty morning!! Goodness, at least when the storms moved through here early this morning, we managed to dodge a few bullets! Several towns close to us weren't so lucky. Salado, which is about 40 miles south of us, (Jenna Bush had her wedding party there) Have huge old oak trees pulled up all over the place. Haven't heard the full extent of all the damage. As the morning goes on, I'm sure we will. So, since this is Wordless Wed, I'll shut up...LOL.

Saturdays and Baseball










Morning! Nothing much happening here except "weather". Storms are expected again today...and it's not the rain that is worrisome...always a chance for tornados. Tonight and tomorrow morning should be the worse of them. We'll be hanging onto our hats!
Here's a couple of pictures I took at Williams baseball game, Saturday. We won the game. He did So well and had fun doing it....The two suspicious characters on the bleachers showed up to harass the little star of the game...I took their picture in case there's an investigation later...LOL. Well, y'all have fun today...laugh a Lot!!

Fabio on Mother's Day.....LOL



I have been unmercifully teased, over the years, because I've always liked Fabio..It was He, who was on the cover of the romances in the 80's. The publishing companies sold Plenty of those books just because of the cover art...Fabio...Happy Mother's Day girls......

I Want a Chicken....


This has been...a week. Rain, nasty..wind...tornado watches everywhere. Scary. I pop the television on here at work and there's SO many things happening..Everywhere!! Horrible weather, sink holes, cyclones.....A Million people displaced....A Million!!! My mind can't wrap around that number! So much......I want a chicken....
When I was little...Ten yrs old, we lived on a farm. One hundred acres of farmland, fields of corn, cows, horses, turkeys, pet skunks, pet crows...and chickens. I use to gather the hen eggs from the hen house. Every time I opened the swinging door the chickens would start clucking and fussing; giving me "the eye"...I'd reach in each nest and gently feel for eggs. Sometimes there'd still be a hen sitting on the nest....she'd squawk, but I'd get the egg! I would sometimes wonder why I had to Always be the one to gather the eggs....It was hot in there during the summer and I'd dread...going in. If the rooster was Anywhere around he'd take a good run at me with those dreaded spurs they have....Gads, between running from the roosters and getting pecked by the hens, I truly felt this was the lowest "job" that my Mom could have given me...punishment for Something....I pop on the TV.... I miss the hen house....I miss the warmth and safety...... of that old hen house...
