THICK GRASS

I HAD THOUGHT ABOUT MOWING GRASS THIS PAST SATURDAY AND THE OLD MAN TALKED ME OUT OF IT AND SAID IT DID NOT LOOK THAT BAD. IT RAINED THAT NIGHT AND AGAIN SUNDAY NIGHT. IT WAS RAINING MONDAY MORNING THEN RAINED AGAIN MONDAY NIGHT. YESTERDAY EVENING I STARTED TO MOW BUT JUST RAN OUT OF TIME AND ONLY GOT A FEW ROUNDS. IT DRIZZLED ON AND OFF TODAY. WITH A LITTLE SUN IN BETWEEN RAINS THE GRASS WAS OUT OF HAND. I LIKE TO WAIT UNTIL IT IS ON THE DRY SIDE BUT IT COULD WAIT NO MORE. I GOT ALL THE HEAVY STUFF CUT AND IT BALLED UP AND KEPT CLOGGING THE MOWER. I SWEAR I COULD PROBABLY BALE IT FOR HAY.

JORDAN WAS SICK TODAY. SHE HAS HAD A SCRATCHY THROAT FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS NOW. THIS MORNING SHE WOKE UP WITH IT SORE AND RUNNING A FEVER. I TOOK HER TO THE DR AND THEY TESTED HER BUT THE STREP TEST CAME BACK NEGATIVE. YAY! JUST SOMETHING THAT HAS TO RUN ITS COURSE AND WE JUST TREAT THE SYMPTOMS. SHE WAS SO WORRIED ABOUT NOT BEING ABLE TO GO TO AUNT VICKIS . SHE WAS VERY RELIEVED THAT SHE WILL BE ABLE TO STILL GO. YOU SEE, AUNT VICKI LIVES IN THE CITY AND SPOILS THE KIDS TO PIECES. WELL RILEY JUST AWOKE AND DUTY CALLS.
