Friday

       The Fiesta is getting ready to happen.  I thought about going…..but…….then I changed my mind.  I would like to see some old timers like Bob Allen and Ralph Shafer.  I wouldn’t mind making a trip but they are only selling does at the Fiesta and I don’t like doe goats.  Therefore, I’m keeping my ass at home.  

       Recently, I did have a thought that made me shudder.  I was thinking about purchasing a set of heifers that are ready to breed.  I could buy them, turn them in with a bull in a couple of months and calve them out next August.  And then I would be selling calves out of them in 2023.  Dang!!  That’s a long time to get a return.  And then my next thought was… Now, if I bought some does, I could get them bred and be selling goats next summer.  Wait?  Oooohhh!!  Bad thoughts!!!!

       I did order some torsion axles for a project.  Now that is really scary.  Those prices are higher than balls on a giraffe.

         Recently, I’ve listened to some guys talk about how their wife can’t cook.  I’m lucky in that regard.  The Dragon Lady learned to become an outstanding cook.  However, I remember a conversation from a few decades ago.

A family in Waynoka was BSing and sharing some beverages.  There was a group of brothers and their wives.  This group of sister-in-laws were picking on one particular SIL.  They were giving her crap about not being a good cook.  She was taking the ribbing pretty well.  But they kept on.  At this point, the lady said “Listen!  When I married this guy, I told him that I could be good in any room in the house.  And he didn’t pick the kitchen or the laundry room.”  WHAM!!!  The women shut up and all of us guys were like “HHHMMM!!”  Well played.  

        I bet when he had to pick which room, he was thinking “Hell, I can eat sandwiches and my clothes don’t need ironed.”

      Right now, some of you guys are thinking “Our house is really clean.”  Or “My wife is a really good cook.”  Maybe even thinking, “We have a really clean house with a good dinner every night and the clothes are always clean but..”   And yet, there are some ladies thinking “This IS my domain and I can handle every room in it!”  

 

Have a good one.  Heck, it’s Friday evening.  Have a great one.  I feel like getting kicked by a mule or 3.
