It’s the middle of rattlesnake season here on the ranch. The local news anchor confirmed it. I’ve seen two already. While driving along our dirt road yesterday, I mistook a virulent enemy for a branch. I backed up the car, looked again and noticed the branch shifted revealing a rattle at its end. At one of our road association meetings in the barn, Shelby stood up and shouted, “ BOB !” to my next door neighbor. He’s our vice president and the one all eyes were on as he gave a presentation in the middle of the room. I sensed fear in the way she yelled his name. I learned after the meeting that Shelby called out to him like that because she saw a rattler slither in the barn door where she and I sat. Bob yielded to the interruption and quietly dispatched the enemy. Ten minutes later, this tough guy was back to center stage falling right back in step with the business at hand. Bob is my new best friend. ...

You always brighten my day. GOD bless you. If you dont mind send up an a prayer for me. My allergies are horrid and I can barely breath. Thanks for being a faithful prayer warrior and friend.
ReplyDeletelove and prayers, andrea
How 'bout just having that man use "ear plugs and really, really dark shades?" :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great Friday sister Mary! I'll pray for sis Andrea, too. Like her, my allergy is bothering me, too. My sinuses feel heavy. But thanks be to God it's not as severe as it used to be. Love you sister!

I never used to hear much about attention deficit disorder growing up. Maybe the difference in disciplining children has changed? Anyway, have a good weekend Mary.
ReplyDeleteI always look forward to your funnies and this one was a goodin :)

I just read a book on ADHD, the video brought a smile...wish the problem could be solved so simply.
