Madador in Virginia

So, I'm talking with my sister Lucy this morning and she's telling me about the grass needing to be taken care of and this BULL her boyfriends boss gave them. Her boyfriend had the bright idea of putting his goats in the yard to eat the grass and the bull too. First he ties the littlest of the goats to a fence and lets the others in yard. Then he opens gate (like an idiot) and lets bull out. That's when the fun begins........not. This bull sees the little goat and starts heading towards it. My sister sees this and runs for the goat, grabs it up. The bull comes running towards her, she drops the goat and starts running for her boyfriend to help. He is running into house yelling get behind the bush. A Bush????????? This bull could charge right through this bush, but he didn't. Instead he runs around the bush and my sister Lucy starts running. She and the bull are running circles around this bush, lmao. I know it's scarey but it's also so damned funny. At this time her daughter Sharon pulls up with baby Jackie. Lucy is yelling as loud as she could to stay in car, the bull is out, and still running around the bush with bull chasing her. Her boyfriend finally comes back out of the house waving a red shirt in air trying to get the bull's attention, it works bull sees it and goes towards him, where by the grace of god he somehow got bull back into the fenced area and closed gate. Lucy could finally stop running around this bush and catch her breath, because by now she was hyperventilating. This short little old mexican boyfriend Jose' says, Oh you afraid of dis liddle bull? You should see bulls in Texas, they mucho grande. Lucy punched him, lol. The little goat is ok. Jose is fine, he can still go to work in morning, lmao. This bull they have has 9 inch horns, I'd run too!!!!!!!!!!! Lucy said she never knew a bull could run so fast, or that she could either, lol. I wonder if Jose' yelled Ole' when bull ran towards him while he was waving this red shirt, lol. I am sitting here cracking up writing this, cause I can picture him doing something as stupid as this. Thank god Lucy can run, lol, and thank god Sharon didn't come in back yard carrying baby with that bull lose. I think he should use lawn mower, it's safer, lol.

Joes Mom has decided to stay another week. She lives with her daughter, son in law and 2 grandson's. Their lives are so busy, she is home alone most of the time with no one to talk too or cook for. So Joe asked her if she'd like to stay another week and she said yes. I'm glad, I enjoy her company. Jim and I and Rebecca went to Columbus Market today. We took Joe and his Mom with us. We walked around indoors for a bit, then ventured out to the produce and seafood stands. Jim got 50 little neck clams to bring home and steam. I got a whole bunch of stuff from produce stands. Watermelon, cantalopes, lemons, apples, plums, cherries, raspberry's, jersey tomatoes, brocolli, asparagus, romaine lettuce, cucumbers. It was so hot. My van's air conditioning doesn't work, so by the time I got home I had to change my clothes, I was soaked with sweat. Took an ice cold shower too. I gave Emma half of what I got except for melon's, no one at her house eats them.

I didn't have to cook dinner tonight, wooooooohooooo. I did make a big salad for dinner. Joe cooked shrimp, crabcakes and steaks. It was delicious. And no cooking means no mess for me to clean up, lol. Emma sat down with us and had some salad and shrimp, before she left to go home.

Well, I guess that is about it for tonight. I have been up since 4:30 this morning and I am tired, so I will be heading to bed shortly. I hope you all had a great weekend and an even better week ahead.

Before I go I want to mention 2 people here in Jland that need prayer. LisaJo has a big decision to make about her very sick doggie Maddie. Please keep her and her and Maddie in your prayers. And also our Missie's brother is in a coma with pnuemonia and isn't doing very well. Please keep her brother and Missie in your prayers also.

Love to you all.........................
