Just a reminder

No one in real life knows about my blog except my mom and Benny and I would LOVE to keep it that way so if we are friends on Facebook, PLEASE don't mention it. If they knew about it I would have to censor it and I really don't want to have to do that. I like being able to bitch about who I want, when I want. It's nice to be able to get shit off my chest without hurting anyone. Thanks.

Today has sucked! It has rain ALL day long without stopping. We have pretty much just laid in the dark watching movies all day. I sure hope the sun makes an appearance soon. They even let Benny get off work early because of all the flooding.

If Toot rides a sheep this weekend, I will deffinately take pics to show yall. Benny has to work so he will miss it so I have been told to take video and pics. I can't wait and just hope it doesn't get rained out again!

Off to cook supper. Hope everyone had a great Tuesday!

And it just keeps coming

It is raining. Still. We have had soooo much rain this year. Oh ya, and it was confirmed that we did get tornados the other day.

I am really getting tired of the rain and it needs to stop before winter gets here. We never get snow. Well, hardly ever that is. It has only snowed ONE day since Toot has even been alive. What we usually get is ice. We haven't had a bad ice storm in about 7 or 8 years. On the last one, people didn't have electricity anywhere from 2 weeks to a month. Yes, you read that right! One whole month without electricity!!!!

If it continues to rain like this, I am sure we will have another bad one this year. I am not looking forward to that!

Because of the storms and tornados and rain, the rodeo we went to got rained out and rescheduled for next sat. That's ok though because I really wanted Toot to compete in the mutton bustin (ride a sheep as long as possible). I know she would love it. So now, I have 6 days to convince her. I know if she sees other kids doing it, she will. She never backs down from a challange.

This sucks!

We had a bad storm go threw a minute ago and now we have no electricity. Really bad straight line wind which is never good with all the trees we have. I went out for a second and only saw small limbs everywhere. So, I called my folks to check on them.

They have shit down everywhere. They have these tent carport things because they have so many cars (6) and she said one of them blew away. They have a corvette they are rebuilding and a 50 pound sack of deer corn was on the hood of it and the hood blew off of it and landed one of their trucks. A pine tree fell on their boat. And then a bunch of limbs down everywhere including on their power line. Ya, they don't have electricity either.

Thank goodness I have a laptop with a battery or it would be very boring and dark in here but no coffee dammit! Last time we had a storm like this (last year), it took 18 hours to get our electricity back. Hope it doesn't take that long this time!
