Burr Cold and Windy


Yep. It's stinkin cold. Ai! Crazy, but I'm watering the lawn.. he he he.. our timing in planting a new lawn, is wayyyy OFF! It was nice out when we started, when we were just about done, the wind hit. Not just a mild wind, but GUST. egh!

This morning when I went to feed the horses.. to my surprise, really it isn't.. but all the weeds came into our yard. CRAP!! And I just got rid off them last week, and the week before..

Yesterday when we were out having lunch, I just wondered when did I start looking down on food? I was like, 'Ew, u want me 2 eat that?' or 'I don't wanna eat here, looks nasty.' So, we settled on a Old Fashion Home Style Restaurant. That was nice.. I remember when eating was eating.. and really wasn't picky at all, really I wasn't. I remember my nickname was 'Garbage Disposal', I loved food although I didn't gain any weight. I just thought it was ridiculous to behave this way towards food.

Yesterday, Hubby asked me about where would I like to go. Really no where.. I had to laugh about a fond memory of my father. One day back in the early 90's in Las Vegas, NV., hubby and I took my parents to SEARS to shop for tools for my father. I took my mom to get her a couple of outfits.

When we were finished with shopping, I asked Dad where he would like to go next. He says in Navajo. "I would like to see the BIG WATER, I want to see where this Big Water is and get to feel the land around it." I thought 'hmmm... Lake Mead, no problem.' I smiled at him and nodded, 'OK, Let's go.' I told O Hubby the same, he sez, No Problem, Let's GO. We went home and got ready to go to Lake Mead. Then, my mom asks me.. 'Are we really going to California???' I thought about it, and ha ha ha.. I told Hubby I had already ok'd pop a visit to the BIG WATERs.. so we be going to Cali. Well, we prepared everything for our dogs (Chow-Chows) so we could be gone for a day.

Watching my mom and dad walk hand in hand on the beach was nice. We had noticed a big change in my father's health then. I wish I was into Photography at that point.. it would have been more memorable.

O Grandson is dancing and singing by me... yeah.. he wants my attention. He is into spelling right now. He spells: Stop (from the stop sign), Go, Yellow, Red, Purple, Cat, Dog, Black, Brown, Rey, Corn, Pop, Blue, and Cake. That's all I know he knows how to spell. O, and he writes them on the white board. When we are out driving around, he tells me what color the lights are.. and he know what they mean. It's just not the lights, he knows most of the 'working' truck are. Like Semi, Water Truck, Pipe Truck, Ambulance, Firetruck, Police, Utility Truck, Dodge, Ford, and etc. Same way with MUSTANGs.. He can spot them way out there.. He is learning to tell time, and counts everything. What amazes me the most is, he remembers where he's been and where they are.. like Parks, where we buy stuff.. schools.. even when we go to other towns.. I always ask him "Are you sure you're only 4 years old??"

When I was four, I was prolly dumber than a rock.. LOL.
