As you probably know, we are presently experiencing 107+ degreedays for the last 2 weeks and more to come. I was at the Pizza place waiting for my Pizza and this guy about 35 was waiting for his too. I guess he felt compelled to speak first ( I really didnt care but Okies are a friendly lot) and this brilliant question came out, " HOT ENOUGH FOR YA"? Remembering a Jeff Foxworthy reply, I answered " NAW, I LIKE IT A WHOLE LOT HOTTER". Needless to say, this guy just stared at me and I busted out laughing to correct the atmosphere. I told him I worked in AIR CONDITIONING, He did not, he worked outside as a carpenter. We talked the small talk and then the Pizzas came and we were gone. On Beans car problem, "Got car trouble? Naw I just drive it this way for attention. "here's your sign".. One of the sayings we use at work when we see something dumb or heard of something that was stupid. "here, hold my beer and watch this"This qualifies as a redneck saying.. I think a lot of our youth qualify for this quote. Especially the dummies learning skateboarding off of buildings and landing spreddled legged on a hand rail, yep, here's your sign.
107 degrees, Our ground is so cracked that Casper fell in one crack and it took 2 hours to find him. Mowing is a thing of the past and no edging at all. I watered my fruit trees the other day and was reported to the water company for watering in the evening which is a no-no. They threatened to remove our water meter if I did it again. I didn't remember that Ayla told me about the pm water ban. Our next door neighbor also received the nasty gram. haha It is hard to get up at 3am to just water a fruit tree, but if I don't, and water in the evening again and get the meter removed, I guess you could say, "Here's your sign".
