This is what a 3,012 bull at the Iowa State Fair looks like….

U gotta love it!!

Mom called this morning to say she thought she needed to go to the ER because she thought she had pneumonia…..

She has pneumonia..she’s in the hospital…

Having cook-out tomorrow night for Aunt Frances, Jenny and “his” birthday.  I just pulled pumpkin bars out of the oven…Aunt Frances will be mad that there isn’t a birthday cake…

He’s been cleaning up the yard today – we tried to sit out around a fire tonight – it felt really good – the evening cooled off…I had just mentioned something about it being nice and quiet here in the country other than the frogs, locusts and birds when the neighbor’s kid started up the 4 wheeler – obviously dad told him to run it in low gear..just didn’t mention how fast he should be going in low gear…then when that stopped the dogs started in…first the neighbors about a mile to the east…then the neighbor closest to us – his coon hound went off – then mine started barking then up the road to the north started barking…I said screw it…I’ve got enough baking to do in the house.  I’m feeling a little irritable…decided to visit some xanga friends..that was fun..feeling a little better.

Weather is supposed to be glorious here tomorrow – I wish the same for all of you!

Until next time….
