We had some tornaders over the past couple of days. I even went to the hidy hole, but only because the daughter and grandsons were driving up to get in. Couple of people were even killed in madill. I hope I didn't know them. I guess Gods screening me from anything too bad .
The calves are a hopping! I have 13 small calves! Now if only this cow market were a normal one, and the stupid virus would quit screwing up my plans to finally sell at a decent price!
Heres Bandit... the calf with the virus mask build onto her face forever. The rain comes and goes, and the grass is outgrowing the 30 head of cattle I have on this place.I tried for the first time, grazon, weed control, and so far its working great. Ill reserve judgement until mid summer! I burned up a transmission on the old ford. I get razzed a lot because its a ford, and its kinda old. I tell my haters, that it broke down doing a job their truck couldn't do in the first place. ha. another bill to get this fixed. I have it towed off already, sitting at a mechanics shop. Someone told me hey just get a newer truck. Well... the cost of a transmission rebuilt is a whole lot cheaper than getting a "newer truck". soooo...
I sure miss driving that old truck. I got her "highlander" stuck in the mud. It SUCKS in the mud. That pavement princess gets stuck looking at mud. It took me 2 hours to get unstuck!! yes its covered in mud. Yes she noticed. Lets not go there.
Someone asked "hows the floor coming along"? ugh! Apparently the subfloor has to be dang near perfect before laying flooring works well. sigh. After many attempts and making a big mess, I decided to just hire a guy to do this. He appears on the 29th! yay. I hope he does well as my wife will crucify me to the pecan tree out back if he don't. I think I made this clear to him, you know... that even Christ was not crucified alone......implying HE might be nailed up there next to me too. soooo....
I wore my mask to home depot. The town has decided to pass an ordinance, that we must wear them now, so I asked for werewolf mask. I always wanted to be a werewolf in homedepot. Now tell me you don't want to wear something like that in home depot? be honest! I know you do! Im told that I cannot do that. You all know who told me. I mentioned her a paragraph above …..shes tough on me. Its almost like she does not want me to be "me", whoever that is. I suppose it would be hard to breathe in it though, so maybe something else... idk, like... maybe a Jason Friday 13th mask? Ill leave the machete in the truck.
Im back to painting the house, since I had to switch from the floor project. Yes the house is a work zone, no I do not have tv now for a week, yes I sit in the recliner, in the kitchen, where I cannot recline, and yes its a mess. Yes she noticed. I must say though to her credit, that she is taking it well. If we could have the grandkids over, we may just get the chalk out and draw on the floors.
So... painting.... no im not spraying... I use a roller and a brush, just like always. I see one piece of siding that I need to fix.... which Im sure will lead to a bigger job than I intend. soooo. Im most excited about a hammack I ordered....that Ill try to hang from the back porch.
Well that's about all I have to say. I hope all yall (like ive got anyone that reads this!) to keep praying for our country, and me. lol. okok. Just pray.... we need to get through this little pandemic thing, and get our economy back on track. Oil is so cheap now.... well toilet paper is worth more than a barrel of oil....so you do the math.
until next time...
and no the sun is NOT "going down" on my old truck!
