Lady in white...and other weekend ramblings...

Let'see...

M played the guitar for a wedding this afternoon. The bride was at least 30 minutes late. There were lots of mini-disasters but it turned out okay, though. I'm just thinking that their life together is going to be just fine no matter what happened today.

Then we loaded up and went to the rodeo. A beat her time on barrels by seven seconds. I'm so proud of her and Short-Man! What makes me smile the most is when she tells me how much she loves rodeo nights and that she wishes it was EVERY weekend. You ought to see my baby smile when she's riding!

I had cheese grits for supper at 11:00 pm. Yum, yum!

I always wear slippers in the house. Everyone is accustomed to hearing me coming down the hall long before they see me. (I have this picture of Maxine in my head for some reason.) Well, tonight, I've got on quiet slippers and a white flowing night gown. I went to bring Captain to A...and like to have scared her to death. She said that she didn't hear me coming down the hall...and all she saw coming through the door was a white dress...she thought she was seeing a ghost. I laughed so hard I nearly peed on myself.

I feel like I'm trying to get a sore throat. I don't have time to get sick. I've got graduation next week.

When asked what I want to do for Mother's Day: I don't want to do anything that I don't want to do. I would just as soon come home from church and eat a bolonga (how do you spell that word?) sandwich than go stand in line forever in a restuarant in town. I want to take a nap. I want to weed and water my garden. I want to ride my horse. I want to give my horse a bath. I want to make A some practice poles. I want to watch back to back episodes of What Not To Wear. Or maybe I don't want to do those things...I just want to decide. So that's the plan for tomorrow. As for my own mother, step-mother, and mother-in-law: this year, they get phone calls telling them we love them. I hope that's enough...because personally, I'd rather know A loves me than all the money and gifts in the world.

Oh, and last night, I was trying to watch What Not To Wear...but I had taken a couple of Ambien before it started because I really need some sleep. The last thing I remember is seeing double Staceys and Clintons...and then the lights went out. I don't think I made it ten minutes.

Speaking of sleep, I guess I need to head on to bed.
