We are putting the wire down to the dirt. Under in some places. They dig but have never tried to dig out. Right now the temp fence is so weak that Sarge would jump on it and bend the cheap chinese 4 ft metal posts and Scarlett would just jump over while Sarge tumbled over. Now we are doing 5 ft and using wood posts, much higher, much stronger.
Not one mention of cornbread.
And she calls herself a Texan. Uncheck. LOL
I am so sorry, I get Linden ( yours) mixed up with that of the 78th Division. at any rate, great job :- )
Yep, Devers was Supreme Commander in the ETO until Ike was installed, more politics. Yeah, 7th Army was obviously in the fight. Too bad not much is written about them. Bonn's book is terrific , btw.
Corn bread?? Not for me, thanks.

Hey, we have cornbread... It's jalapeno cornbread, but it IS cornbread. Even if we didn't have that, I DO have all the ingredients to make homemade cornbread.

READ: Psalm 1
His delight is in the law of the Lord, and in His law he meditates day and night. —Psalm 1:2
Many of our New Year’s resolutions may actually accelerate our pace of life instead of helping us to slow down. In a quest for greater productivity and efficiency, we overschedule our days, then rush through meals, drive impatiently, and wonder why the joy of living eludes us.
Carol Odell, who writes a business advice column, says that slowing down can positively affect our lives at work and at home. She believes that rushing can cloud our judgment and cause us to overlook important things and valuable people. Carol encourages everyone to slow down, and even suggests the radical idea of welcoming red traffic lights and using the waiting time to meditate.
In Psalm 1, there is no hint of a frenzied pace. It describes a person who enjoys the blessing of God. Instead of thinking and acting like those who rarely consider spiritual matters, "His delight is in the law of the Lord, and in His law he meditates day and night" (v.2). The result is a fruitful life and a well-nourished soul (v.3).
Isaiah wrote, "You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You" (Isa. 26:3). Just for today, try thinking about that verse whenever you have to wait. Isn’t it time for all of us to slow down and live?
I had an eye exam and welcome to middle age card all at once today.
The young lady doc prescribed bifocals...
LOL. Welcome!
I remember coming home from the eye doc just spitting nails. He kept using the F word.

The F word was "forty." ***shudder***
I had them prescribed to me a year ago, what a pain...
I was 49 so that's not to bad I guess.
At Thanksgiving, one of Msdrby's cousins wore a t-shirt that said"I'm not 40. I'm 18 with 22 years experience."
It was not unexpected. I tried to get the doc I saw last time to prescribe them.
Today, the doc I saw asked if I ws taking my current glasses off to see up close. I laughed, and said yes. I also look over them, under them, around them, etc.
I do the same thing. I couldn't stand the bifocals so I use seperate reading glasses. I don't need them for internet stuff, I just need them when I read a book or directions on a bottle or something like that.
The majority of the time I don't wear them, thank God cause they are difficult to deal with doing remodeling and wood work, saw dust, sweat etc..
