He was right!! And then I saw IT!!

It's Caddy Shack AGAIN!!

Jerry went out to the garage to sharpen the lawn mower blades.

It didn't take long for him to be back in the house -- with the most put out face he has EVER had.

He stood in the middle of the room and just looked at me. I knew that last night when I was in OKC I hadn't hit anything with the car so that was out.

What had caused that LOOK???

Then he told said -------

We've got another mole!!

Yikes!!!

Where is the Juicy Fruit and how much will we need.???

Stay Tuned For the REST of the Story!

Remember the movie "Caddy Shack"??

We have Caddy Shack right here in Oklahoma!

My husband has declared WAR on the poor gophers that are making our yard a home.

He bursts into the house last Wednesday telling me that  --  around trying to get a good breath -- that the gophers are back AGAIN.

I went to see what he was talking about. Sure enough -- GOPHERS had taken up residence in our yard.

SARAH!!  that means NO poison!

Then I remembered what our friend Charleen said one day. " Get some Juicy Fruit gum and -- with gloves -- tear the stick of gum in small pieces and put it down the gopher hole -- then cover it back up.

Works every time.

Yesterday I was not SAD!!

My daughter sent me a text yesterday and reminded me that it was going to be cloudy.  She was right. And to also make sure that I had lights on in the house.

Now when I grew up, back in the days when the dinosaurs roamed the earth, we didn't---did not--that's DID NOT turn on lights in the daytime. I don't care how cloudy it was outside or how foggy or how smoggy--no lights until the sun went down. Whenever that was -- if you knew when it happened.

So, I was just doing what I had learned.

But then we lived in England for 6 years and it's dark there. It doesn't even get daylight until 9 or even 10 in the morning in December and January.

I should have known, BUT

We are all what we learned as a child I guess.

I am not opposed to learning new concepts--so they lights were on yesterday and will be again today.

It's raining!!

We really need it. If we don't have enough rain to fill up the pond I don't know if the fish will live much longer.

Now the turtles are a different story.

I often wondered about that SAD stuff

You know that SAD -- Something Something Disorder where you get depressed when it's winter.

Well, today it has been very cloudy---as Our Lynn says. It's been a very British day today. We got up to fog and it was foggy until just a few minutes ago. And my whole thought process changed today. I got really put out about the littlest things. Like Jerry coming in the door and it scaring me. Mind you I did have my mind on a lot more than him coming into the house. But, that should not have put me into a funk.

But it did.!!

I think there really is this disorder and I will keep more lights on from this day forward.

Have you ever just....??

Have you ever just wanted to scream?  For no reason just go outside and scream? So my question is -- why didn't you??

Have you ever made a huge mess of a dessert and served it anyway?  The best cake I ever made broke apart right down the middle as I was taking it out of the pan. Moist and lots of flavor--I'm glad I served it.

Have you ever made a long list of things to tell your doctor and when you got to the office you didn't have the list?  That's OK.

Have you ever punished one child and found out that the other one did it---but it was 20 years later?
That happens all the time. Just apologize and give hugs and kisses.

Have you ever found a library book AFTER you had to pay for it because you couldn't find it? Yes, I did!!

Have you ever gotten strange phone calls?? One time -- in the sixties -- we got a call from a lady who said, " This is Opal and I called to tell you that Roy is in the hospital." Jerry's granddad was named Roy and his Grandma was Opal. Turned out it was a different Roy and Opal.

Strange things happen and then again they may not be that strange!!

It's the times like these that make out lives worthwhile.
