We are looking at 50 mile an hour winds this week, Wednesday through Saturday.
We are looking at a Pineapple Express or Coconut Something.
Rain, Rain, Rain. I am OK with that as rain makes me sleepy and work CAN NOT be accomplished outside.
That reminds me, I must put the summer chairs away or they may be blown away.
I must put the cushions away from the settee and lawn chairs or they will be in the Horses stalls.
Stalls across the road from us. Not me, I do not have horses or cows or even a dog.
Wish I had a dog, but David says NO!!
Oh well I have no fenced yard so that is OK. Who wants a dog to roam the country? Not me...
OH I am just rambling aren't I? My neighbor offered to give me the cute pug but David said, NO.
Do you think he may be kind of bossy? Of course if you know me, and if I want it badly enough, I will get one. That is just me. Kind of pushy.
Oh well I have a Cat and I think he is getting old. Makes me sad as his gait is slowing.
Poor Smokey. He came in the rec room today and cried and cried. He is NOT a crier so I know he is not well.
I say, I think, because I adopted him. He came from a lady with 98 cats. 98!!!!! OH My Gosh that would drive me insane as one can stink up a place. Mine is a yard, field, outdoor cat and that is where he stays. Outside!!! but when he is really old I may have to take change my mind a little.
Although if he walks in the house and I say, "Smokey" He turns and walks back outside. He knows inside is NOT allowed.
As we sat on the porch last summer, he came up with a baby squirrel and we (Madi and I)
Screamed.
Ground squirrels are ferocious. They can claw you to death. The squirrel was still alive and quite well. As soon as smokey dropped him, the squirrel ran away. Smokey stood there oblivious, probably because of all the fuss that was made.
OK Song words, or is this recitation? Go to U Tube and listen to Ray Stevens do this, it is hilarious.
Well when I was kid I'd take a trip
every summer,
down to Mississippi.
To visit my granny in her ante bellum world.
every summer,
down to Mississippi.
To visit my granny in her ante bellum world.
I'd run barefooted all day long,
climbing trees free as a song.
One day I happened catch myself a squirrel.
I stuffed him down in an old shoebox,
punched a couple holes in the top and when Sunday came,
I snuck him into church.
I was sittin way back in the very last pew
showin him to my good buddy Hugh,
when that squirrel got loose
and went totally berserk!
Well what happened next is hard to tell.
Some thought it was heaven others thought it was hell.
But the fact that something was among us
was plain to see.
As the choir sang I Surrender All
the squirrel ran up Harv Newlan's coveralls
harv leaped to his feet anmd said,
"Somethin's got a hold on me!"
YEOW
The day the squirrel went berserk.
In the First Self-Righteous Church
Of that sleepy little town of Pascagoula.
It was a fight for survival,
that broke out in revival.
They were jumpin pews and shouting Halelujah!
Well Harv hit the isles dancin and screamin
some thought he had religion
others thought he had a demon
Harv thought he had a weed eater loose
in his fruit of the looms.
He fell to his knees to plead and beg,
and that squirrel ran out of his britches leg,
unobserved to the other side of the room.
All the way down to the Amen pew
where sat Sister Bertha better than you
Who had been watching all the commotion
with sadistic glee.
You should've seen the look in her eyes
when that squirrel jumped her garters and crossed her thighs.
she jumped to her feet and said,
"Lord have mercy on me!"
As the squirrel made laps inside her dress,
she began to cry and then to confess
to sins that would make a sailor blush with shame.
She told of gossip and church disention,
but the thing that got the most attention
is when she talked about her love life
then she started naming names!
Well seven deacons and the pastor got saved
and 25,000 dollars got raised.
And 50 volunteered for missions in the Congo
on the spot.
and even without and invitaion
there were at least 500 rededications.
And we ALL got rebaptised whether we needed it or not.
Well you've heard the Bible stories I guess
of how he parted the waters for Moses to pass.
All th miracles God has brought to this l' world.
But the one I'll remember to my dyin day
is how he put that church back on the narrow way
with a half crazed Mississippi Squirrel
