Popping In To Say Hello

It's been a little bit since I've come in here.

Mom got a bad cold.
Then I got it. And I've been down and out for the last few days.
Before that....I don't really have an excuse.

Finally starting to feel like I might be on the mend.
Not as congested. But still feel like it might be trying to settle
in my chest.  YUCK!  It's been a Sudafed and Echinacea kind
of week.  With Day/NyQuil mixed in. And lots of Vicks!!!

Thanks to us feeling so crappy, we had to cancel our plans for
the weekend. That wasn't fun. But rather get better, instead of
go have a good time and end up worse yet.

I haven't even been able to hold the Grasshopper when she's
been here because of this dang cold.  Definitely don't want
her to catch it. She's growing so much.  Her Momma says she
is almost out of newborn clothes.

In other news..............
Probably the most EXCITING thing to happen this week is....
We got tickets!!!!
AND....
Gonna see GARTH BROOKS!!!! in July!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG!!!
BUCKET LIST!
I'm going to see Garth LIVE!!!!!!!

I refused to talk about it or get excited until I knew for sure.
And apparently we were pretty lucky to even get tickets.
40,000+ seats sold out in under AN HOUR! She just barely
got them.  We'll be sitting up in the heavens but we don't
really care.  We're gonna see him and that's what counts.

It's a chilly and cloudy day here with spots of rain. Which
we do need since it hasn't really rained since late April. First
rain we had was Thursday/Friday.  And now today.  But, I'm not
going anywhere either so it's all good.

Hope everyone is having a lovely Sunday.

May The Forth Be With You

Or so everyone is posting lol.  Memes galore on Facebook.
I was never that nerdy, but share on odd one here and there.
Like the one from the forestry service that said,
"may the forest be with you".

I can't believe it is already May.
If my parents were still alive and together, the 2nd would
have been their 55th anniversary. 
Yesterday would have been my aunt's 86th birthday?  But
years ago, we discovered there was an error and she was actually
born on the 2nd and not the 3rd.  Not really sure how that
happened or why it was never fixed.

I forgot to pop in here to wish you all a Blessed Beltane.
So belated well wishes to you all.

Spring is definitely in around here.  The farmers our out in full
force plowing and aerating and planting.  Water has come in
for those with water rights, ditches and canals are filling or filled.
Cow breeding has begun because the bull has been brought over.
The flowers are blooming and the trees are getting greener by the
day. Dandelions EVERYWHERE!  And the bee guys have had the
hives in the field across the street for  weeks, so the little bees have
been busy busy busy. Other neighbors have been putting up more
hops poles, which startle the dogs from time to time.

Grasshopper weighs over 7 pounds now? 
I think that's what I heard.
She's growing and doing pretty well.

Wish you all a fabulous weekend!
