We by-passed Spring

I sure do miss Spring...not Spring, Texas, though I do miss the Crawfish Festival...I mean the season.  Hey Billy Bob they have Zydeco and Cajun music and you don't have to drive all the way to Louisiana. http://texascrawfishfestival.com/

It has been miserably hot in the 90's, today we reached 94 degrees.  Needed to run several errands and passed on driving dad's old car...needed a car with air conditioning!  It is like we went from a few days of spring straight into summer.  Though I hear on Monday it will make a brief appearance.
 

Took out the big guns...my monster size Stripes mug.  NO, I do not fill it up with soda...I put ice water in it and it maintains it cold for quite a while better than that worthless Stanley thermos.


While going through our old glass containers...I came upon this old Orange Juice bottle and decided to keep it.  Remember them?  It must be at least 20 years old...probably more!




Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.

Feeling Testy

My mother's neighbor parks his family vehicles along our fence line and he once again mowed that area yesterday...guess he was giving me a hint?  Too bad...I will pretend I did not get it...it is bad enough I have to put up with his stepson, his loud music and beer guzzling friends on the weekend.

While it may be fall in other parts of the country here in Del Rio it is hot as hell.  It was 94 degrees as I made a feeble attempt at cutting down some of the tall grass using my garden shears.  After two minutes I pretty much decided it was futile and since I do not have a dreaded HOA to deal with...it can stay that way!  This gal does not like yard work!

Decided to come back inside and face my real demons at this particular time...my taxes :-(  

Please don't lecture me about getting them done on time, blah, blah, blah....I get enough of that from my mother.  I am and have always been a procrastinator and at this stage of my life it is not going to change.  So if you don't see me posting...in a nutshell that is the reason why.

Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.
