Watch Where you Step in Texas 2

Email from a cousin of a co-worker:
Hmmmm!! This snake was killed out off the pavement about 300 yards southeast of my house at 10 am Sunday morning, 6-1-08.. He or she was 6 foot long (with the head (as big as your hand) and neck before we cut it off and threw it out in the pasture), measured 4 inches wide at it’s widest point, and was heavy, don’t even want to guess the weight. The snake striked the shovel and knocked it out of my neighbor’s hand while he was trying to hit it in the head. He has more guts than I do! My neighbor told me he killed one last summer that was 7 feet long. This snake gave me the heeebeee jeeebeees!! Seems we have some big ones out here, I killed one last year that was right under 5 feet long.

Bryson Update

We took Bryson to Acute Kids Care yesterday evening. He developed a fever and we decided we better figure out why so we could take care of it as soon as we could.

The doctor ask “is he in daycare?”

We told him that he just started going to daycare last week, and he told us we better just get used to this kind of thing! He said the problem was viral, but the goop coming out of his eyes was an indication of an infection, so he gave us a prescription for eye drops.

I staying home with him today. He was tired before 9am, so I’m on a break because he is taking a nap. He is in pretty good spirits, but his nose and eyes are leaking out nasty goop. Some good news is that his ears are fine this time.

So I guess I can say we didn’t even make it two weeks in daycare!

THE COW FROM CLOVIS

THE COW FROM CLOVIS

The only cow in a small town in New Mexico stopped giving milk.

The people did some research and found they could buy a cow in Clovis, New Mexico for $200.00.

They bought the cow from Clovis and the cow was wonderful.

The cow produced lots of milk all of the time, and the people were pleased and very happy.

They decided to acquire a bull to mate with the cow and produce more cows so they wouldn’t ever have to worry about their milk supply again.

They bought a bull and put it in the pasture with their beloved cow.

However whenever the bull came close to the cow, the cow would move away.

Colonoscopies Sayings

Colonoscopies are no joke, but these comments during the exam were quite humorous….. A physician claimed that the following are actual comments made by his patients (predominately male)
while he was performing their colonoscopies:

1. ‘Take it easy, Doc. You’re boldly going where no man has gone before!

2. ‘Find Amelia Earhart yet?’

3. ‘Can you hear me NOW?’

4. ‘Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet?’

5. ‘You know, in Arkansas , we’re now legally married.’

6. ‘Any sign of the trapped miners, Chief?’

7. ‘You put your left hand in, you take your left hand out…’

8. ‘Hey! Now I know how a Muppet feels!’

Big Truck / Big Ego

When I got out of the parking garage after work and drove out on the street into the sunlight, I noticed a note stuck under my windshield wiper. My first thought was that someone was informing me of something bad, but I was happy to see it was a note from Mike… boosting my ego a little!

Wheels for Betty

I’ve been looking for a good buy on a spare tire/wheel for Betty. I found a set of wheels this weekend, so now I’ll have 4 spares, not just one! Actually having the extra wheels will make it easier for me to go get a set of tires… I’ll be able to just drop off the loose wheels.
