If You Are Not Smart, then Stubborn Might Do

There is NO ONE in their right mind, who has known me for long that would confuse me with Phi Betta Kappa material. I would sit somewhere between there, and the Barely Gotta Outta category! And depending on the subject, closer to one end than the other.
And I would imagine many of you Readers fall into that situation right along beside me. I have spent lots of time with individuals that were as close to a Genius as likely will come into my contact. From Subject Matter Experts to Outstanding Leaders, Gifted Athletes, Master Woodsmen, the list could go on for a LONG TIME.

Independence Day

This past weeks’ trip to Devine was uneventful as far as the trip was concerned, thank goodness. We had several things planned, including a trip to Kerrville meet up with my granddaughter to pick up her girls for a little time with grandparents. We had a great time, visiting, eating out and shopping! These young ladies really enjoy shopping at thrift stores, so Friday found us at the Hospice Store in Devine where they each found several things. Back at the house, I started getting stuff together to head back home, and again my trip was uneventful, except for quite a bit of traffic, including lots of motor homes and travel trailers.

Your Lytle P.D. week in review … Officers handled 68 calls for service and conducted 99 traffic stops. Of those stops, 78 resulted in citations and 21 were warnings. I will expand a little on the traffic stops. Fifty-three (53) of the citations were for speeding, with the average speed of 13.13 miles per hour over the limit. The largest amount over the limit this week was 26 miles per hour (71 in a 45), with several others that were over at least 20 MPH. Five of the 53 were for under 10 MPH, with those being 8 and 9 MPH in residential areas. So, if anybody tells you they got a ticket for going 2 or 3 miles over the limit in Lytle, ask to see the ticket.

Things & Stuff

Been a real dry week since the last rain but, supposedly there is some coming in.S Just got to wait and see but, pray for it in the meantime.
See where the adults in the room aren’t gonna let the guy who thinks he’s a girl swim in the Olympics as a female. That was a no brainer decision if ever there was one. Guess the Olympic Committee does not subscribe to the loony liberal left.

You Are Going to Wear That?

Up front, right off the bat, I am going to admit that my Bride, AKA The Boss Lady, married WAY DOWN on so many levels when she said YES over 3 decades ago. She has far more style, class, and good taste than me in so many areas.
But rather than further confess ALL my shortcomings, this TALE deals with clothing selections. It did not take very long for me to notice my “clothing options” had changed considerably not too long after we married. The Closet did NOT look the same at all!
