Only rained 2.3 inches out Black Creek way since July 28th…got a little fog one day a couple weeks ago but, even though I had to use the windshield wipers, that don’t count.
Finally harvested the last of our orange crop (total of 3) and like Cousin Eddie says, theyre goooood. The lime crop was a lot bigger and just as good. Sandy made two Key Lime pies outta that bunch.
The political commercials are finally over and now, the commercials for special types of medicine have taken over. They cure all kinds of recently discovered or made up diseases but….they all have side effects from spatulized coflagulation to arboreal branchitis to occular fecitis to blood clots and even death. If you didn’t know you were sick, wait a while and they will come up with a medicine that will suit you just in case you get a rash or cough due to cold.
Congressman Gonzales called the other day in response to my question about HR 82. This bill would allow public servants (peace officers and firefighters) and teachers to qualify for SS benefits for time served (simple explanation). Tony said that he was “all in” on it and voted for it, HR 82 passed the House and was sent to the Senate. I encourage the voting public to contact Sen. Cruz and Sen. Cornyn’s office and voice support for this bill. Everybody knows a retired public servant or school teacher. (Got Kari Davis and Lewis Stroud on it) For more information on it, look it up your ownself on the computer and take the time to contact our two Texas Senators.
Talked to Commissioner Lawler the other day and he is still taking old tires at the yard from 8 AM till 4 PM Monday through Thursday. This will end when New Years Eve arrives so, if you got one, get it down there.
Thanksgiving is over and evvabody is full and looking for a way to get outta their eatin britches and back into their regular ones…just in time for the Christmas feasts. Won’t say anything about Texas and A&M.
Talked to Jim Wilkinson the other day after he went to hobnob with Trump and Elon Musk out in Boca Chica. Said he buys a lot of metal from Musk and eventually hopes to have enough scraps to build his own rocket, I don’t wanna be nowhere close when he sets that thing off…he knows junk but he don’t know squat bout rockets.
Christmas is only 3 weeks away! Great time of year for family and friends. Pray that it rains until round February.
