Between the husbands sextuple bypass surgery in May, his recuperation time, Amanda’s (my oldest daughter) wedding quickly followed by Morgan’s (aka MoJo – my youngest daughter) graduation in Dallas, TX, and the Neshoba County Fair in July, a trip to MoJo’s in August, a trip to Atlanta to see Mom in September, then the husband’s visit the first part of this month and my computer crashing… it’s been like riding drag on a cattle drive around here with all the dust kicked up. I need to find that pair of rose-colored glasses and super-glue them to my face I ‘reckon.

And believe me when I say that no matter how smart my ’smart phone’ is it will never replace a computer for emailing and blogging. I’ll be extremely happy when the new macho-machine arrives and I can get back to coding to my hearts content. Hopefully, said ‘macho-machine’ will ship next week after all the requested customizations ordered have been completed.

That’s all for now as my cell phone signal is iffy out here in the boonies.

Hopefully by Monday it will be dry enough for my dirt to be delivered for the raised beds. I still need to finish bed #2 and then place and assemble beds #3 & #4; maybe tomorrow that can be done.

So….

The radio reports are true.

Seems there’s a Kangaroo hopping around just to the south of me… no one seems to know where this Kangaroo came from. There are no ‘exotic’ ranches or zoo’s down here, and a Kangaroo isn’t exactly your normal ‘missing pet’. There is speculation that Hurricaine Katrina blew the poor beast in and that it’s just now regaining it’s strength to find it’s way back home Down Under.

After pot bellied pigs, emus, buffalo and all sorts of other strange oddities showing up at my place here, I won’t be at all surprised if I happen to look out and see ‘Katrina-roo’ hopping around my pastures, terrorizing the horses.
