HOW COULD YOU.....

absolutely NOT fall in love with them instantly. No matter WHO you are..... :-)

IT'S THAT TIME.....

of year again. It comes around like clockwork. Tony starts spending more and more time with his "girlfriends". (At least I think they're girls.....he calls them b*****s when they cause him trouble.) And being the kind, wonderful, loving and understanding wife that I am, I even offer to bring him food while he's spending time with them. On this particular day, he was doing double-duty. Running the loader (loading lime into the spreader).....

and then running the spreader

On this particular lunch run, I made a friend. There was a house just right across a lane from the field. This little dog (I'll call him Buddy.....'cause, uh, that's what he turned into.) came slinking over to where Tony and I were sitting in the car eating. He didn't get REAL close to the car, but close enough to smell that we had FOOD. I'm a sucker for a "please feed me" face. So I pitched him a few bites. When I went to ride a round with Tony, Buddy went over and lay down in the shade to wait for me. And when I got done, he follered me back to the car to see if there were any tidbits left over. I pitched him a deep-fried mushroom; and, I think he ate it. Altho, he didn't swallow it whole like he did the tenderloin earlier. He's a cutie.....don'tcha think?

He has, what we thought to be, one of those invisible fence boxes on his collar. I don't think it was working.

I WENT TO.....

a dance recital this evening. My youngest niece, Liz, who will be 7 next month, danced two dances. I always enjoy going to dance recitals. I don't know why I don't go to more of them. I have managed to go to all three that my grandgirl, Kristin, has been in. All three were in Texas. I'll be going to her fourth one in June. This time I will be traveling to Washington state. PLUS.....another grandgirl, Hannah will be dancing this year, as well! I got a preview of their ballet costumes and they are adorable :-) Expect a few pictures.

HELLO AGAIN.....

It's been quite a while since I posted. We've been through a lot. Everyone is okay. I won't bore you with the details. It's Spring! The sun is shining. Things are looking up. Perhaps I'll find a little something to talk about every day. (Yes, I remember promising to write about something good or nice or funny every day. Just trust me when I say that there have been several days in the past few months when none of that happened.)
