BLOG TRANSFER
Well - I got out and about this weekend.
Saturday we did the Bull City Kids day and that went really well. Lots of little kids from the city got to enjoy free horse rides and food and fun. It was exhausting, but that kind of stuff is rewarding. Ransom, Levi and Dry Mountain of course were on their best behavior. Makes you really love your horses!!!
Took Taira to Kathy’s on the way home so she could stay the night and I could go out and play. Went home, unloaded the horses, turned everybody out and tended all the animals. Then I took a shower and packed up and headed towards Lillington to hook up with Belinda and then heading off to Fayetville to hang out with Untold.
Well - the Honda decided to act up again just when I hit Sanford. Overheating - crack in the radiator acting up. At least it waited until AFTER the 10 mile stretch of nowhere to do it so I was able to get to a gas station. So I ended up babying it to Lillington, stopping and adding water at gas stations to cool it down and getting to Belinda’s a little later than planned.
Parked the Honda to cool off and Belinda did ma herr (it was purdy, too!) Then Belinda drove us to Fayetville in the Bangin’ Stang and I left the little crippled Honda in her driveway.
She likes to drive it like she stole it - so I had to remind her that while I wanted to be there when she dies (should she go before me)…I don’t want to die WITH her! (Not that I don’t love her - but the fiery car crash isn’t for me! LOL!)
After some wrong turns and disorientation, passing up the pub and having to do a turn-a-round - we managed to make it to the pub not too early before UNTOLD hit the stage. Got there right around 10 ish!
UNTOLD ROCKED the house. In my opinion the best of all the bands to play. I ain’t biased either - that’s just the truth. But I think I saw Satan at the pub - cuz one of the guys in one of the other bands sure as hell sounded like him. I couldn’t understand a word he screamed! But I got my bossom signed - check out the pic in my pics! Those are NOT tattoos on my chest!
Okay so 4 or 5 Smirnoff’s later and some hangin’ out we left the pub around 1 ish. Hit the Arby’s drive through for some chicken shakers and I managed to shake the chicken right out of the shaker and between the driver seat and center console. So then it was a trip to a gas station for some clean-up stuff. Belinda still found a piece of chicken there as of yesterday! LOL! But the chicken was still bangin! LOL!
So we got home around 2:0OAM and hit the sack. No sooner than I closed my eyes- - - I think I had to get up. Promised Taira I would be at church. So topped off the Honda with coolant to get me to church and off I went. Bless Belinda’s heart for getting up and making me coffee! :)
Okay- so get t his. On my way to a party where you can buy artificial aids for self gratification my Honda misbehaves to slow my roll. But on the way back it got me to church just fine without having to stop - and the distance was about the same. Hello Lord!!!!!!!!
Got to church JUST IN TIME to miss only one song. Again - the emphasis of the word was - GET BAPTIZED. They were Baptizing this Sunday. But I chose to wait. Taira and I will discuss it and it is most likely that we will get Baptized next opportunity. Justin and Matthew gave Taira their old children’s Bible (which she faithfully read this morning). She is very into it - so we’ll discuss what that means and then - we’ll take the dip. :) Justin and Matthew also decided to get up and get Baptized unplanned - and that made Kathy very happy! 
After church we headed to Kathy’s house with others for a cook-out and a lazy day. We were SUPPOSED to help them paint the fence, but we decided that a lazy day was going to be more fun. So after the cook-out everybody else headed out to their Sunday afternoon business and Taira and I stayed behind. We watched One Night with the King (VERY GOOD) and Snakes on a Plane….(Can’t wait for the sequel - MORE Snakes on a Plane! LOL!) with David and Kathy and itw as it was nice being lazy and just hanging out with good company.
Alas we left at about 5:00PM to head home because Georgina was coming riding at 6:00PM. Got home - pulled up three horses, groomed and saddled and when Georgina arrived we headed out for 2 hours of trail and returned for 30 minutes of arena time. Had a very nice ride. Georgina will be back out next Sunday!
I’ll tell ya what - I had an over-all fulfillng weekend, but when I gave in for the night - that was all she wrote! LOL!
LOVE YA!!...
