My sister is moving back to her flooded house. FEMA has not bought her out yet and it’s been a turbulent year for her. She bought another house, totally updated it and it’s beautiful. But it’s not home and she is unhappy. She told me of her decision a week ago and I understand. Downstairs was stripped out to the studs. So it won’t take much to make it livable again.
Just thinking that since she is keeping the house this would be a good time for you to arrange to get that metal building in her back yard. Instant barn or ?

The sheep won't jump through?

Nope. Goats would beat the dogs through it. Sheep? Nah.
Well . . . Check Ridgetop for the story.

Yesterday instead of resting, I hitched my flatbed and loaded my tractor. Then I fooled with those confounded wrachet straps. I have to figure them out every time I use them. But I am getting better at it.
Then I went to son’s house and mowed his place. Carson went too, but elected to stay in back seat of truck. I left door open and he was happy.

Today it’s official, I’m tired.

A few days after I mowed son’s place, my tractor bogged down and just wouldn’t go. It barely crept along. Do I loaded it up and took it to Chris. Air filter was clogged up and fuel filter looked to be a hundred years old. Yep, that’ll sure slow down a tractor. Oil and filter change, top off fluids and I’m back to tractoring!

Redneck glamour shot!

Picked up granddaughters Friday, will meet oldest granddaughter this Friday at my sister’s house to give them back. Oldest will turn 18 June 7, leave for Italy June 9 for 2 months, to babysit 3 kids, all expenses paid plus $450 euros per month. She’s excited!

Took the 2 to a gospel bluegrass festival in Grapeland on Saturday. They did the pony ride, cotton candy, and bounce house. Then we went to the lake and played in the water for 4 hours.

Yesterday it rained all day, got 2” of rain. Today we are going to the movie, to see The Last Rodeo, go to lunch and go back to see LILO and Stitch.

We’ve made rice crispy treats, pumpkin pie and jello. Spaghetti, tacos, cereal, strawberries, blueberries drenched in Redi-whip. Yep, blown my diet, no Pilates, I’ve got to get back on track..,.. next week!
