    I don't like unexpected company. I appreciate it when people call first to make sure we are not busy before they come by. I guess I was just raised that way. I always call and let someone know I am coming. I feel it is alittle rude to just drop in on someone.

    I don't mind people stopping by unannounced. Just don't come empty handed. Feel free to bring some pie, or fresh tea, a pound cake, some greens, homemade peach icecream, or whatever. Just come on by and I'll leave the front porch light on.

    Speaking of porch lights, I made a mistake the other night and left mine on. I woke up before the sun came up to find my porch sworming with bugs. There was even a moth about the size of a bat out there.

    A moth as big as a bat? Are you right sure you're not maybe stretching things just a bit?

    I have seen the "Mammoth Moth". When I lived in Florida, the mosquitos were so big they would sit on the footboard of the bed waiting for me to go to sleep so they could carry me off!

    I'm a professional fibber. I've learned the more you say, the harder it is to keep the fib going. So, keep it to a minimum. Keep them guessing.

    You'd better watch that fibbing. It could get you into trouble with libel and slander. You could end up in court!

    I wouldn't want to be taken to court over a little white lie. They might make me swear to tell the truth and nothing but the truth so help me God. And I would have to place my right hand on God's Holy word. So I will tell you that the moth I seen was very big and to me it was the size of a bat (a newborn one).

    I went to see my doctor for a flu shot. He is a close friend of the family. The nurse usually gives the shot, but was already gone for the day. He said he would give me the shot even though it had been a while since he had given one. He said it's like riding a bicycle..yeah right. 4 pokes later and a severly bruised hip it was all over.

    Bless your heart Gib. I know how you feel. When I have to have blood drawn I leave in pain. I have small vains and they want to roll. They usually get blood from the back of my hand before it is over. I would imagine you will be even more sore in the morning.

    Ewww, I don't like to have blood drawn by an inexperienced nurse. They poke, prod, squeeze, and bruise too much!

    I bought me one of those metal detectors. Went out in the backyard and the first spot I checked showed "Gold at 90%". :eek: We got our trowel out and began to dig. We held the detector back over and got the same reading. We got the shovel, just knowing that any minute we were going to strike it rich.

    My neighbor came over to see what the excitement was. He called his other neighbor over. By this time we had dug a hole about 3ft deep and big enough for 2 people to stand in. One of the neighbors was playing with the metal detector and "Hey guys??" We looked up and he pulled off a piece of plastic off the screen that said "Gold at 90%" After a moment of silence, there was much laughter.

    That is funny. It sounds like something that would happen to me. Of course I'm a blonde if that tells you anything. Better luck next time.

    I thought about going blonde one time. I borrowed a blonde wig to see what I would look like. I decided God knew what color my hair should be, which is Auburn, so I just left it that way.

    I got a call from a creditor this morning at 9am. He did not have a firm grasp on the English language. I felt like I needed a translator on the other to help mediate the conversation. He kept saying, "you pay 70 dollar or else." I tried to explain that I had already mailed it. He said, "no mail, you pay 70 dollar or else." I told him I had to get to church and that I promised to call him back. He said, "you no go to church, you pay 70 dollar or else." Once again I informed him I mailed it and I was hanging up.
