“My father’s passing reminds me of the shattered dreams and unfulfilled hopes I once had.”

 




“The death of an absent father brings up the pain of missed opportunities and unspoken words.”

Squeeze A Boob Save A Life

We were up at 5 a.m. to get to Fountain City by 6 a.m.
We made it with ten minutes to spare.

The original plan was for Cowboy and Badger to stay in the car, but they ended up coming in with me.

I went back with no preparation at all and no explanation of what to expect.
Then I saw their little machine.
I'm very, very claustrophobic, so I told the tech that right away.
He seemed a little grumpy and didn’t really understand why I was so nervous about his machine.

I'm Not Old I'm A Recycled Teenager

Badger was pretty sick last night.
Today she just seems to have that nasty cold Peacock and I got rid of.

Peacock said, “She’s been sick for 17 years.”

“Do you know why grandchildren are always so full of energy? They suck it out of their grandparents.”

We had an easy enough morning. 
Badger and I got Eins and Zwei up, fed, dressed, and out to the car while Cowboy ate breakfast, then fed the chickens.
 It was cold! 
I don't know what the temperature was, but it was cold. 
We had rain in our area, but from New Market to Jefferson City, it was snowing.

So sorry about the Scabies

Scabies.
Gross, right?
A man at Cowboy's plant has crusty scabies, so guess what we're all doing?
Being treated for scabies, dad-blasted man.

I was treated for lice because of my stepdaughter, and now I’m dealing with scabies thanks to my ex-brother-in-law.
