Ah, get over your sweet self!!

Ever have "one of those days" and three weeks later you wonder if the "drama" will ever end? Well, that would be me. My creative juices have been as wet as a dry creek bed so there you go. A partial list of "issues" would include..... teenage hormones, my hormones, a needed trip to the chiropractor, a reoccurring uti, cold dry weather, a wienie dog that refuses to "potty train", being on a diet I hate, a son headed to Afghanistan and a general bad attitude. Any one of these for mentioned offenses would be just another day at the office but I've had 'em all at once and finally came to the conclusion that this is just life - get over it..... so I did. With that said, I've decided to get a goat....yep that would be Ranchwife's bright idea. I know I'm a grown woman with a mind of my own but she borrowed it the other day and put that idea in it before she returned it. So come Saturday, we may be headed to "goatmart" to put our dibs on our goats. Haven't told my dh about my newest adventure but he'll find out soon enough I suppose. One good thing is, they're bred and will be milking by June which will be just right weather wise and Karli will be off the "baby milk" by then. Besides, what is cuter that a baby goat......right?? I will have to pen these - the last ones I had, liked to play on great - great - grandmothers's red sports car and she just got a new one. Here's a story I got in an e-mail that will put a smile on anyone's face, especially if you have daughters!! One day my mother was out and my dad was in charge of me. I was maybe 2 1/2 yrs. old and had just recoverd from an accident. Someone had given me a little 'tea set' as a get-well gift and it was one of my favorite toys. Daddy was in the living room engrossed in the evening news when I brought Daddy a little cup of 'tea', which was just water. After several cups of tea and lots of praise for such yummy tea, my Mom came home. My Dad made her wait in the living room to watch me bring him a cup of tea, because it was 'just the cutest thing!' My Mom waited and sure enough, here I come down the hall with a cup of tea for Daddy and she watches him drink it up. Then she says, (as only a mother would know...) 'Did it ever occur to you that the only place she can reach to get water is the toilet? Till next time, adios.
