Wow! I can't believe I slipped posting for 4 days. I did have some new experiences -- some I liked and some I didn't.
First new experience was cornbread salad -- it was good. Since I didn't make it, I'm not sure how to describe it, but it had cornbread, sour cream, vegies but no letture.
Next new experience was sitting in my back field watching the egrets swoop in and catch bugs. I was mowing the lawn and apparently stirring up delicious bugs. About 20 egrets started feasting. Was really kewl!
I didn't panic and rush the dog to the vet when she had a little limp from jumping off the porch. This is definitely a new experience for me. Usually, I'm packing them up and heading for the vet's office -- any time of day or night. She turned out to be ok and is running around like a crazy dog today.
