I would give my left arm to talk to my ma right about now. It's coming up on two months since she's passed. I know everyone's situations are different, but regret sure is a killer. I wish you much luck with your ma, IM and Roomy.

My husband and I are celebrating 8 yrs today. Had a hell of a thunderstorm come through and he was headed for the hills to check on our cows. Lightning strike has started a whopper not far from where we pasture them. Hopefully, not in the middle of it. Also hoping when I get off work that we can grab a beer and our 3 girls and head for the pond for a swim.

I've heard of three fires started so far from this storm, which happened about two hours ago. Another (human caused) fire was started last Friday and is now at 4600 acres and 0% contained. Tis the season

You know Meg, I was thinking about you when I was complaining...my mother makes me feel like doing this

but I do love her. She hurts my feelers and it's hard not to

sometimes.

Congratulations on your anniversary! I hope you can enjoy a swim after work. Drink a beer for me wouldya?

I hope you guys are safe from the fires! I remember sitting with in laws watching a fire work its way down a hill toward their home in CA many years ago...it never made it to their neighborhood but man does it move it quick!

Happy anniversary to you and DH, Meg!!

I can completely understand how you feel about your ma as I feel the same about my dad but I lost him over 1 1/2 years ago. The pain is dulling but it's still sharp and not a day has gone past that I haven't thought of him. Losing him is what really knocked me for a loop and sent everything off the tracks for me. That silly coop/run build was, for me, something of a symbol of me getting my mind and spirit back on track and happy again. I like building. I liked sharing that with my dad. I think he would have gotten a major charge out of the chickens and that whole ordeal getting coop project done.

Now my mother... Roomy's description of her's is my mother, spot on!

I hate hearing about the fires that burn out west. I hope you all stay safe.

That's got to be rough, Cap. Sorry to hear that

Especially since her sister died of the same thing!

Happy Anniversary, Meg! Hugs to All and may your troubled thoughts go away!
We had broccoli and cauliflower flower stalks from the garden for veggies tonight and homemade tostadas.

Happy Anniversary Meg I understand it has been longer since I lost my Ma still miss her awful.. We have had fires Easter side pretty scary hope your cattle are safe

 

[Meg-in-MT]

Happy anniversary Meg and many, many more. Hope all your cattle are fine. We get lots of lightning strikes here I guess because I live on the side of a tall hill and there's a tall television broadcast tower on the top to attract them.

Thanks, Pert! Sounds like they've got her under control now. Saw the plane and helicopters headed that direction earlier. Got another thunderstorm rolling in, but getting rain, too. Fingers crossed

Where do you think Scotland is then?
If you are Welsh, Scottish or English you're British. It's just easier to say British unless you are particularly Nationalistic.
My mum was American (Scottish) my dad Scottish (Scottish). All my relatives as far back as records go were Scottish.
I'm probably a European now, or at least I will be until the latest Tory halfwit drags the UK out of the EU.

I know Scotland is part of the UK, but dang it man, you're Scottish! (I am partially, from the MacDonald clan in Ayr.)

Does your mom have medical issues Roomy? My mother doesn't she's just, well, her. Sometimes that's enough.

I KNEW we were related woman...I believe we even have the same mother.
