Been up all night except 2 hrs. THE MOST unusual Christmas Eve I ever had!
About 7pm, just as son#3, his wife, me and my wife and my eldest sister sat down and started eating gumbo, an acquaintance from nearest neighboring place pounds on door, opens it, takes one step in, his white tee shirt covered in a big splotch of red, and croakly exclaims....."Bill shot me". He had indeed been shot thru the upper right abdomen, just below his rib cage, and a matching exit hole in the back. 9mm looked like. Son grabbed my Mossberg, since we don't know WHO is coming thru the door or what was going to happen next...

Too tired to explain it all right now, and I got turkey to fix, but the guy did survive at least long enough to make it into the ambulance and Bill was released at the scene. It was all related to the question I asked about horses in the horse section.

Wife and I were discussing who was going to fix what this morning and she looks at me sternly and sez "Don't make me call Bill..."

What the hell?! Good Lord GB... there must have been one hell of an explanation for Bill to be released at the scene after shooting someone... Hope the rest of your day goes a whole lot better than your Christmas eve went! If folks are gonna get shot over them horses, might be time to stop being neighborly and give them back to who rightfully owns them!

Wow, WOW, WOW on the shooting incident!

OTHERWISE -- I'm wishing Merry Christmas to everyone. Also sending prayers that upcoming birthings are all easy and happy, gardens are abundant and people can love their neighbors to spread Peace & Joy. Feel free to raise your voices with mine.


Sun is out, temps are moderate (45), animals are all fed, I got up alive. Going to enjoy my day...just a normal one. No big meals or gatherings. I do plan to clean house , later have a small meal from whatever is in frig, a glass of wine & be thankful for a quiet day. Already finished chores, sent greetings to both kids, delivered GD her gift and I'm thru.

Actually, there are several of us out here who are having a similar no fuss day. Mostly we have spent years with the hussle of raising kids and can enjoy the fact that all are grown and just fine! Enjoy your rest. All you youngins -- enjoy your kids!
