Survived my speaking and driving yesterday. Did my show in Hattiesburg (actually in Oak Grove). Drove back via Summit to Seminary to get back to 49. A very pretty backroad drive. Got home at 8, picked up my son from Scouts on the way home and then worked until 11.

Morning! Excited about the day! Inauguration day. First Female Choctaw Indian Chief! Everyone have a good one!
Go State!
Wow, MR. You keep on the move!
My big blue hand is ready to be delivered to school this morning. I’m waiting for a model to wake up so I can take a picture.
It sounds like you had a wonderful day of it Marshall. Nothing like a nice backroad to do some nice thinking that “God is Good”!
Good morning everyone. Please tell me it is Tuesday. I left and came back home a total of 8 times yesterday. I feel as though I did not get any work accomplished. Oh, by the way. They made PD’s neuro appt for next Wednesday, they are not going to make him wait till the end of the month. Yay!!!!
MrsH good luck with your project/entertainment today!!!
Guess who has poison ivy??? I have not done any yard work since the week after labor day. I think I came in contact when PD and I were cleaning out his Explorer this past weekend. I can get it from anywhere.
Mawnin’ y’all! Slept pretty good last night….several hours at a time. It was nice to get some rest for a change. Boss, hope you got some rest last night. You’ve got to protect your health, there’s no sick leave for the self employed.
LE, watched 2.5 men last night. It was really funny in a good way. Much better than before.
Ordered my new motorcycle helmet yesterday. Plan to order the highway bars today. Still looking for a good price on the headlight rim. Can’t do anything right now because I can’t remove the old stuff with limited strength in left arm. So, I’m not in a big hurry.
I do think I will be OK operating the riding mower later this week. I’ll need to move the motorcycle out of the way to get the mower out and that’s going to be the deciding factor.
Hope everybody has a good day. Have you noticed that I’m back to using capitol letters? Progress is sometimes measured in small increments.
Morning everybody! Flying through. Got a river of words to write today, including a short story on the murder of my sister-in-law’s sister. Hard situation. She chose a tough life. Will be a long day for my dear sister-in-law tomorrow.
C-Lady, Had you mentioned the sister’s story earlier and I missed it? I’m so sorry, dear. I’m glad you can be there to comfort your SIL.
I had missed it as well.
Me too! I’m so sorry!
morning gang! hope all have a great day!
Mornin!
Morning glories! Playing chauffeur today for Mom! Cardio checkup.
Mom got an excellent report. The doctor said he’d give her a year warranty!!
Awesome!
Great news!
Mornin. I decided to drop the pajama pants issue with the school. I’m still ticked at them for singling her out, mind you, but am not going to push it. And she was singled out. She said there were literally hundreds of kids still in pajama pants at the end of the day. Another sophomore even had an identical pair of pj pants, and no one ever said a word to her. Sigh….
I’m proud of you, Molly, for not pushing it. That is one of the hardest things to do, especially when you KNOW that you are correct. Excellent example of self-control on your part.
Thanks, MrsH. It was hard. I REALLY wanted to speak my mind. But I didn’t.
Molly, to me that is the same as a real man walking away from a fight. If you had pushed it, it would have just made things worse for Kiddo the rest of the school year. Now maybe it will blow over and y’all can forget it and have a great year instead.
You’re a better woman than me. I don’t think I could have been that strong.
I agree, Coop!!
The big blue hands are on my FB page.
And now on my blog, too, after I figured out how to make the pictures not post sideways.
And they are terrific!
You are so creative!! I am jealous…not a creative bone in this big ol’ body of mine, not a one!!
Someone just brought me a blessing: an aloe plant! She heard how I had burned myself twice in the past month while cooking dinner.
That’s great stuff!
BE’s aloe plant has 2 new babies.
My root canal was postponed until tomorrow. I got my MRI changed from Meridian to Flowood so I won’t be running all over creation tomorrow.
I had mine in Flowood right next to River Oaks Hospital (the original one) and they were all as nice as can be.
Morning one and all. Been looking all morning for some paperwork that I misplaced on a client. It is probably stuck in some folder.
So what are your thoughts on Hank Williams Jr losing his MNF gig because of his comments? MNF will never be the same.
We only get local broadcast TV, so we’ve been without MNF for several years now. I haven’t missed him :)
No ESPN????
I don’t think I could live like that.
Well, I don’t watch football, so I really don’t care, but I do know that he made an incredibly stupid remark.
Our country has become hyper sensitive over too many things. He drew an analogy and he is pretty blunt.
Analogy or not, it was stupid.
My oldest child and I saw him in concert after he was supposed to have cleaned up his boozing and doping ways. He threw stuff off the stage – the microphone and a guitar and something and kept on playing. I thought we had been in there a long time and when they finally turned on the lights and led him off stage, it was midnight.
Son of Pluck is messing with me and won’t let me post.

He never has been one to know when to shut up!! I missed the comments, though. What did he say?
JB, I replied to your post about MNF. Please answer when yo get a chance.
The grandfather of one of our church members got to go on the Honor Flight last month out of Gulfport. This morning he was killed. He was in a minor traffic accident and then had a heart attack on the way to the hospital to be checked out.
Oh, no! Hate to hear that.
That’s awful! I’m so sorry, dear!
Oh Mrs. H I am so sorry.
Dear Lord Jesus, How I pray that your love will surround these dear people and care for them in this situation. Please draw them all to your great heart and give this family love and comfort during this time. May they know that Your spirit is there. We love you and thank you. In Jesus’ name, amen.
So very sorry!
BE couldn’t sleep last night because his back was hurting so bad so I sat up and finished James Patterson’s “Kill Me If You Can,” which was good. We got to bed around 3:00 or 3:30 a.m. I had to be at the senior center at 9:30 to pick up lunch tickets for the luncheon this month and from there we went to the MHP in front of the prison to get BE’s DL renewed. He came back to the car and said they don’t take checks anymore. WTF??? We drove back to the bank and got cash and drove back out to the MPH office and got his new DL. We ended up having lunch at the all you can eat buffet at Kentucky Fried Chicken in Brandon across from Crossgates. I had my share of good old chicken livers and the trimmings and a chicken breast, original, and chocolate pudding and peach cobbler for dessert and now I’m about ready to go back to bed.
Marshall, since Summit, Mississippi is in Pike County down near McComb, I’m thinking you probably drove through Sumrall and then to Seminary. My number 3 son and his wife and 2 sons live in Sumrall and so does Bret Favre. See, you had friends along the way and could have stopped in and didn’t even know it.
LE…you sure are wordy.
prayers please!! Cardinalson just had a wreck. Truck totalled. He is fine. However, he has full coverage. Someone turned left in front of him.
Glad he’s ok! Hate he’s going to have to deal with insurance people. The other guy did have insurance, I hope.
hey now!!!
So sorry CLady, I hope he will not be too sore!!
Sorry to hear that, but thank the Good Lord that he is okay!
CL…glad he is fine. Praise the Lord! Glad you have GOOD insurance.
cl, glad he wasn’t injured. prayers for both of you. if the other guy has insurance it will be a big help.
got all my insurance matters setteled today. if injured, vehicle insurance is primary before health insurance kicks in. that is if you have medical payments on your vehicle insurance. medicare said they heard it was a vehicle accident. since the federal government provides all my coverage, i opted out of medical on the cycle. so, i don’t have different providers arguing over who pays first. i carry liability, uninsured motorists, and comprehensive on the cycle. since the hospital i am using honors medicare and tricare, we have 100% coverage. that’s a real blessing.
our auto coverage is far more complete including towing and rental car.
Evenin!
Card, I’m glad he’s okay!!
Just getting in. Doing much better today, but still not 100%.
Evening to you Coop and everyone else. Prayers for Clucky and Cardinalson.
AW so glad you mom received a good report today :)
Thanks, me too!
Thanks y’all. I just heard from him again. he called to say he didn’t have any broken bones. the guy he hit was an elderly gentleman from what I understand and he had to be airlifted out and I don’t know his condition. My brother prayed with me this afternoon. It’s better. I talked with Jon’s insurance agent and he said he would help us with the claim on the other guy’s insurance once we get the police report to him. Jon should be on the road again in a couple of days. He just left me a message and sounded truly upbeat. I’ll lay bets he is going to Uncle Jerry’s house tonight, though.
Just talked to my sis and Jon gave her more information. He is okay. He is staying with my nephew tonight. Going to take the day off of work tomorrow and get back at it thursday. The other guy was feeling woosy so they airlifted him just to make sure.
I’m glad he’s ok Card!
Card, I know it’s killing you that you can’t lay hands on him tonight with a big hug!! Nothing like when your babe gets in a situation that you have no control over! Hugs dear!
DWTS update: I’m ticked off that Chaz is safe. He CAN’T dance! I know his Mom is Cher, but he CAN’T dance!! I think the only reason he’s still there is because word got out if he made it one more week, his Mom would come to the performance next week. I hate that Carson is in the bottom 3. He’s working SO hard!! Teach me not to vote… If Carson makes it through, I’ll be voting next week, for sure!
JB, went back to look at something in your earlier post and accidentally posted this there.
JB, I replied to your post about MNF. Please answer when yo get a chance.
I have sneezed so much tonight I’m seeing ragweed in a totally different light… I used to think it was a cute flower… NOT!
Got a big day tomorrow so I’m going to try to get some rest. Card, keep us posted on CS… I’m glad he’s okay. OB, I hope you continue to improve. Clucky…, well, good luck with the root canal tomorrow. Been praying for Thing 2. Hope he’s learning…
I am proud that the Choctaws inaugurated their first female chief today! It’s historic!
I’m about to crawl into a ball and get some sleep. TTFN!
AW, glad your Mom got a good report.
Glad to hear more about Jon. Good that he wasn’t hurt. Hope the older man comes out alright.
