Our pond is full now!

Jeremy is standing right in front of the cabin on the river bank.

The Trinity River is up!

Well another weekend is gone and we have to get back at it tomorrow! "Daylight Wasting Time" has come again and the clocks have been set back. I've been wanting to go to bed since 6:00 this evening! It's crazy how my body just thought since it got dark, it needed to go to sleep! And I had to fight it too! I DO NOT like the time change because there is no daylight in the evenings and it messes up everything. I want to play outside when I get home and I can't cause I'm a'skeered of the dark! Alfred always tells me, "There's nothing in the dark that's not there in the light!" Ahhh.....well......excuuuuse me but, at least in the light, I can see to shoot at it if it tries to get me! He is so weird and just doesn't understand things clearly like I do! AND, I remind him of it often!

I took lots of pictures of the flood waters this weekend. It was pretty wild there for a bit but everything is getting back to normal. The rivers & creeks have receeded considerably since Friday so that's good. I know there are probably a lot of people that had their homes flooded and are still displaced. We need to pray for them and lend a hand should we hear of a need. Put some action with those prayers friends! Don't ya love helping someone in need? I sure do! When Travis was in prison, he met many, many young men it seemed had no one that cared a flip about them! It always broke my heart and naturally I wanted to be their mama! Trav used to fuss at me and tell me, "YOU CAN'T HELP THE WORLD MAMA!" I know he's right but my heart sure wanted to take a shot at it! I can hardly stand it! My mother used to say that I gravitated toward the "underdog types" in my life! I just wanted good things for everybody and was nice to EVERYONE! It didn't matter to me what they looked like, smelled like or anything else! I just had a hard time accepting that I couldn't help everyone that needed it, and still do to this day! Let's just do what we can, WHEN we can and even though we can't "HELP THE WORLD," we CAN make a difference. I love all of ya! Even you ornery ones! HA! God bless us everyone.......
