Still round the corner there may wait |

Home is behind, the world ahead, |
I guess when they were passing out dignity, he was skipped altogether.
He missed guilt too. He's pretty much missing all the elements of a good conscience.
Now there's one critter I would not mind finding in my laundry!
Cutie!
There's a feral kitten outside under my mom's car. I tried to lure it out with some tuna fish, but all it did was hiss at me.
Heh. It is. We don't have any official places like that, that I know of.
Heh. I'd better get started....
I'm in. Can't promise I'll actually complete the novel this year, but I'll give it a try!
Aw. Shucks. Did you leave the tuna out? Maybe after a bribery today he could be caught tomorrow.
heheh.. The Clayton's gave their kids some pretty convoluted names.
DeWitt Clinton Caldwell, Althea Alcestus, Thaddeus Anderson
Ruth Emma (that one isn't bad), Rosetta Marie,
Ellen Madora, Sarah Eudescia, Lizzie Annie (my great-greatgrandmother, and for whom bittygirl was named and yes bittygirl's name is convoluted)
Edna Earl, Althea Augusta, Doska Jane, Clarence Caroll, William Henry, Alice Marie, Sarah Bell
The Anderson's and Vardeman's were better though they did have the double name thing going. Your name wasn't merely Joe... it was Joe Edd.
Aggie Alton, Amazaiah, Bainbridge Annie, Billy Ray, Charlcie (female), Mae Etta, Bennie Ellen (female), Orra Elizabeth, Lela Bell (pronounced Lee-ler), Dormon Ray, Cornelius, Ford
Lola Bell, Charles Ray, Joe Laura (female), Nannie Mae, Sarah Ann Rebecca, Claudis Alden, Ida Belle, Orra Eva,
Inis Felicia, Lonnie Richard
Well...sometimes they're right.
It's still pretty squishy out there, though. *sigh* I feel guilty about not doing it, but...
Guess I just need to kill a few hours and then try it. I need to burn stuff, too. Skeery.
Well, burning is pretty safe right now... :~D
I'm not mowing today, still too wet.
If I'd been caught up on mowing before this wet weather started, it wouldn't be so bad, but as it is, my lawn looks like an abandoned pasture. Least the rest of the plants like it, too. Everything in the garden is at least up now, except the beans. And I have soooo many pansies, it's nutty!
Want the horses over there for a day or two? :~D
Started the fire. Keeping an eye on it. I guess nothing can really happen, but my heart is still going kerthump kerthump.
Heh...it'd look better than it does. ;-)
Maybe I should get a couple goats. They wouldn't mind the rocks as much as the other mower does...
They'd love your flowers too :~)
Eek!
Though...in some ways, wood doesn't bother me nearly as much as paper. I won't say that's logical, 'cause it isn't, but...
BTW, if you *do* torch a stickpile, I've got some sticks of my own. ;-)
You need a big stick, to kindof stir it when it burns down... otherwise you end up with a bunch of half-burned paper and stuff at the bottom.
You can have your own stick fire :~D
I'm not sure where I'd put it...
