Boys will be Boys....

What are little boys made of?   Frogs, snails and puppy dog tails!..................

Believe or not, there are still some kids out there that love to entertain themselves the old fashioned way....Fishing, hunting, playing at the lake, swimming, riding the gator, and just plain having fun.

We took Tucker and three of his friends, down to the farm on Labor Day Monday.  Their main goal was to spend the morning fishing.  The moment their feet hit the pier, they were being entertained.

Their eyes were centered in on the massive number of frog eggs that were attached to the pier.  I must say, I was pretty impressed with them myself.  

This one was huge!  You could actually see the little tadpoles swimming out of it.

I couldn't believe how many eggs were in the lake. Unbelievable!

After the guys got past the frog eggs, they made their way to the boat.  We figured they would fish for an hour or so and then they would be ready find something else to do.  They ended up fishing for about 5 hours.  Of course, none of us ever saw any of the fish that they claimed to have caught.

This wasn't the end to their day.....they came back home and jumped into the pool for about an hour, before heading back down to the farm to ride the gator.  With approximately 700  acres to roam around on, I would venture to say that the gas tank was probably running on fumes by the time they ended their day.  

It was wonderful to see these young guys entertaining themselves by just being boys.  I would have loved to have had a little microphone attached to their shirt tales!  I'm pretty sure there were some interesting conversations taking place!!  Lots of frogs, maybe a few snails, but I didn't see any puppy dog tails.

...boys will be boys!

Is It the Lazy's?

Crud...and can I say crud again?  Just take a look at the picture above.  This is where I want to be everyday, all day long!  Most of you probably already know this, because I really have not been putting much into each of my blog post, lately.  Be honest, how many of you can tell?

Yesterday, I asked Sam if he thought I was getting lazy or if he thought I was just extremely tired.  Thank goodness, he didn't say LAZY!  I'm thinking I might not have taken that too well if he had gone with the answer that begins with a "L"

I think I'm way disappointed in myself right now.
Why?  Because I am actually suffering from laziness or the "Just Don't Care's."  Oh, I know...I'll blame it on the heat!

I think I need a good ol' kick in the pants or, I need a prescription for some kind of positive emotions exercise, right about now.

                           Doesn't this look comfortable?

Check this out.....I haven't used my camera in about a month or so.  I have not created anything  new in the decorating world, for about three or four months.  What's up with this?  I certainly do not know!  I love to create...but right now, the (ove) seems to be missing from the word Love when it comes to decorating and creating.  In other words, I've kinda lost part of my love!

The kitchen?   I am struggling to get back in the kitchen, and I have no idea why.  My interest is just not there.  We watch cooking shows all the time and as I'm sitting there watching them, I really get excited.....until it's my time to go to the kitchen....

Nope, it's not depression....I've been there a few times, and this isn't it....   The best way to describe  it is to say I feel like I've been bucked off of a horse and am in need of some much needed rest.

I need to check with my Canadian friends to see if the swirling fog is still bouncing off of the Falls, at Niagara Falls....Perhaps I brought it home with me...and perhaps it's what is causing my brain fog.

I plan to mention this to my doctor this week, when I go for my check-up, but I can already hear his answer....."I think you need a sleep study test."   

It's absolutely not that I'm sleep deprived!!  Oh no, no, no!

So....who wants to come on down and give me one of those swift "kick in pants" with a Texas size boot? Maybe, just maybe this is what I need to re-energize my body!

Football mania

Happy Sunday evening y'all....

I am not a late sleeper.   My day just seems to run much smoother, when I wake up early and get the ball rolling!
I feel as if I've wasted my day if I sleep later than 6:30 in the morning.

Yesterday morning was a different story....I actually slept until 8:oo.  Friday night was a late night for me!!

I didn't crawl into bed until around 11:30  or so on Saturday.
I know, for many of you, this is NOT LATE.....but for someone who normally goes to bed with the chickens, this is late!

It was FOOTBALL mania for this crew!  Our game this week was "out of town" meaning that we drove about 75 miles to play the Crandall Pirates!

Can I tell you, the BEARS were the BOMB last!  Oh yes....the score was 40 for the Bears and 20 for the Pirates.
It was an awesome game!

Now, it's time for a little "Shug" bragging..... Our precious grandson, scored two beautiful touchdowns!!!  Whoop, Whoop!

Oh yes, I was just a little hoarse the next morning, with a tad of a sore throat!  Maybe a little too much excitement for this young chick.  I think I was the biggest fan in the crowd.

I am loving me some football right now!  Just "Bear" with me, 
I'll get back to my somewhat normal post....real soon!

Have a great Sunday!

Hugs Y'all
