Isn't that a daunting realization.
Happy May!!! I do believe that spring has arrived, although this morning the heater is trying valiantly to take the chill off the house. It got pretty chilly last night. Don't know where that is coming from, but that's weather in Oklahoma for you.
In case any of you saw all the bad weather that came through here and created havoc in Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Missouri, we were pretty far south of where the storm actually came through. We did have a pretty good thunder and lightning display early yesterday morning and some very strong wind, but it moved through the area fast, and we didn't have any damage here at all. That always kind of surprises us with the number of trees we have around our house. But, Bill said he didn't see any broken branches.
This is Smithville Rodeo weekend - it started last night and goes through tonight. They had a tree down on the fence around the arena down there that they had to get removed and the fence repaired before they could even think about turning those calves and steers and bulls and "adrenalin-stoked" cowboys loose in the place.
Bill has been sick pretty much all week and felt like a zombie most of the day yesterday (I think he's on drugs). Actually, he IS on drugs. They gave him a couple prescriptions when he went to the doctor, so he's been popping pills like an addict. BUT, I guess they are helping because today he's gone to a "MEN'S" trail ride. I think I mentioned riding and eating before - well, I'm sure they will do plenty of that. From what we heard, there will be horse-drawn wagons on the trail ride as well. They are expecting 50+ people so hopefully they will have a good time.
The next post is Installment 5 of Mom's story. Elicia seems to think that the story posts are way tooooo short, and not near often enough, but, look on the bright side, it could be once a month. That's my only complaint with Capper's Magazine. You get a good story going, and then it's a whole month before you get the next part of it. By that time, I've forgotten what the first part was about.
Anyway, enjoy #5, and we'll keep them coming till I run out of story.
