He'sssss Backkkk
I watched that Frozen Planet last nite, and was just amazed. Need to see that in the summer,,lol. It was filmed in the Arctic, and Antarctica. Don't know which was worse, the N or the S. That's why i love it here, can't take the cold. Now i'm getting to where i can't take the heat either,,hahahaha.
The wind has been blowing hard all morning out of the S. Still forecasting storms later. Willy B Wright? lololol,,That was the name of the armadillo picture in the paper showing the forecast. Not there now, and i don't know when they quit using it.
When i was at HEB a few days ago, they didn't have plain ol honey graham crackers. The stock man showed me a new box and told me they were just a little smaller,,well, YEAH,,like an inch square! I'm very tempted to take them back! Hate to be done that way. I guess they're gonna get like the Walmart in Marble Falls, just don't stay stocked on everyday stuff. Didn't have a few other things either. And then,,i forgot to use the few coupons in my pocket,,,lollololol. Do that all the time.
Gotta get milk and go to the library today, no matter what. Out of the first, and gonna be out of the second before long. Guess i could get dressed and do it now. Think i will, so yall tc, and

Jude's Missing
I didn't do anything yesterday, too darned tired. Watched 2 movies last nite, went to bed at 11, and SLEPT! First time since the time changed.
With DD missing for 2 days, thot i was gonna have to go hunting him,,,lol. We all kinda keep up with each other, and when one posts every day, or says he won't, and then comes up missing,,we take it serious. SOOOO DD,,was so relieved today, to see your post.
And BB, if you go out in that "bubba boat",,,plzzzz wear your life jacket. Late yesterday, a kayak turned over with 3 men in it, 2 had them on, 1 didn't. They found his body about 9 last nite. And they were close to shore. This was in Lake Buchanan.
Nothing to say, nothing going on,,but, i will let you know about Jude.
Yall tc, and
HAGD
Went off and got back home about 4:30 and Jude's waiting on the porch, nothing wrong,,he's fine, but he did get a good talk from me.

Bluebonnet Trail
Had to get the next 2, too, and this is just a start on the yellow that’s coming.
the next 2 aren’t bluebonnets, but the pasture was lilac.
Back to the bluebonnets.
These are just a small portion that I could get. Hwy 71 is a 2 lane, and nowhere to stop safely, tons of traffic too, so I pulled over whenever I could. Then after turning off on a more narrow 2 lane county road, was still just as bad. It’s just breath taking, and as long as I’ve lived here, I’m still that way when the countryside is full of flowers. They’re just now getting started.
This county is the only one that has this HUGE display. It’s like, you cross that county line, bam, they’re gone. I would swear, that on the Ellen DeGeneres show, there was a pic of this as her background. Even has the oak trees too.
Got my HEB trip done, and got home and put away. Then, didn’t get to sleep til after 3 last nite, so,,,,NOTHING today! Here it is, almost 1 and I’ve just eaten breakfast. I don’t remember, lol, it ever being this bad. I wanted to take my son and his gf out to eat later, so,, maybe. They called last nite, had been up river on a picnic, and here came a storm out of nowhere. They wanted to know if there was hail in it, so I looked and no,,,wasn’t, but told them to head back right then and they would beat it to town. HA!! They went the OTHER way! lmaooo,,,storm chasers! I guess I taught them well. Always loved storms too.
Time to get my dishes done,, gonna be a nap for sure. So yall tc, and

WHY WHY WHY
No sleep, no energy, nothing getting done. Didn't even walk yesterday, just can't when i'm so tired. Am i the only one this way? Gosh i hope not.
Thot about going up to visit G, but,,,grrrrrrr,,,almost 1PM now. Would take about an hour to get there. Guess i'll just sit around and go to HEB later. Later, cause that way, i can eat at that good mexican food place again. lololol.
When i go to Kingsland later, i'll go on hwy 71, have heard the bluebonnets are great. Will get pics.
Gosh, a shooting at a court house in Beaumont! Just saw that on the news.
Short today, didn't even wanna do a post, so yall tc, and

Geeezzzz,,,What to Say?
Since taking off the word verification i AM getting lots more spam in my email.. is this just a coincidence, or,,,a fact of ,,blogging? I put my settings on Google to the private one and i've noticed that i don't see things pop up everywhere i go, about where i've been.
DDs got pics of his swamp on there today. Love that place, and kinda wonder why he would ever go anywhere else... lololol.
It's been so hard to make myself walk lately. I do, but it sure is hard. I think maybe it's the lack of sleep, like, last nite, i didn't go to sleep til after 2 AM, then i was up a couple of times, so thirsty i had to have a drink, which i keep a bottle of water in the bathroom. Tried keeping it by the bed, but then, would have to get up any way, to pee, even tho that's not the reason i wake up. On the walks, i'm having to sit down more along the way. Darn time change! Shouldn't even affect me. Sooo tired.
Austin is having the SXSW stuff going on now. Zillions of people are there, techs, films, music. And i've been told, the bluebonnets are out in force on some highways.
After they bloom and start fading out, they have their seed pods all over them.. They dry out and get to the point where they literally, explode. They sling seeds out to maybe 20 feet. So if you gather up pods, keep them in paper bags,,,lol. And if you're on the side of the highway, watch for those rattlesnakes! Those seeds can lay there for years, and when the right weather conditions happen, they will grow. Sometimes it can be 10 years or so, between the whole countryside blooming out. I think this year is one of those, will get pics.
We set the high temp yesterday, in the nation! 88*. Knew it was too darn hot.
Think i'll take a nap,,,yall tc, and

No Tolerance For Screaming Kids
Big story today about a family being kicked off a plane,,hahahaha,, because of a 2 yr old having a tantrum. WOOOHOOO. Good for them! Kids don't behave, leave em at home. I did. I didn't take them out with us til they could and they knew it. Lol, my son was the only one that had to be about 6 or so,,,hahahaha,,,If i had had to ride with that kid, i would have wanted a refund!
I was telling Gypsy about the time i bought this house, and had to work on it for 4 or 5 months before i could move in. That was after i got home from work, and on week ends. Mom was there waiting every day, lol, and a lot of times, i wouldn't have done anything, but,, there she was, ready to go. Well, one week end,,i was so tired, and had so much painting to do, and heard someone drive up. When i looked out i almost cried. It was my bro B and SnL K,,and their oldest, ready to go, paint rollers, brushes in hand. You just can't believe how much they can do in just a little time. The next day, i was in one of the rooms and there was a white cricket walking across the floor!,,, K didn't slow down, she just painted it!! LMAOOO. And even now,,,all these years later, i stilll have to LMAO. All my family helped at some time or another. That's what families are. (Used to be). I had a moving party,,,lol,,had 4 or 5 pickups show up and a lot of help. I had everything ready, so it didn't take long. Had hot dogs, with pork and beans, and chips. Had to go back the next morning and dig in the trash for my tv remote,,used an old trash can to hold stuff like that. But it was right there in the first one. Had all my frozen stuff in a black bag, and my nephew emptied my ash trays in it...HAHAHAHAHA,,had to wash off everything. But, they got me moved in record time. And we had fun all the way.
G just came by and said he was going up to his get away, about an hour from here. I might ride up there the next day or 2. They bought a 100 acres up there on the rocks. lol,,Close to Menard. Rocks and cactus. He likes to get out and shred that stuff.
Like DD, nothing to say, so yall tc, and
