Some of us were a bit confused last week when the time changed. I went to church an hour early. When I noticed no one was at the church, I just did some work at the community building and then came home. By that time, I had started on something else. The next day, a friend of mine came to the club early. The week just did not go well.

My friends Patty and Willie went back to Florida for the winter month on Friday. Hopefully, they didn’t get in the flood waters.

The Cross Country girls went to state on Friday for the finals on Saturday. I hear they ran their best. Congratulations to you all. Several parents went too. The weather was great all weekend.

There was a nice crowd at the Opry Saturday night. It is hard for me to get used to it being dark when I start somewhere. There is an early show next Saturday evening at 5:30 p.m. Doors open at 5 p.m.

I had a few issues with my pickup on Sunday morning. Joey and Trish came down to help with them. It still needs a trip to the garage. I hope it isn’t too serious. I have two doctor trips and others this week.

The school will be celebrating Veterans Day on Wednesday. The doctor had changed my appointment from last Wednesday to this Wednesday.

My house is getting some phone changes. I am ready for that to be final. and things get back to normal.

Joey got to surprise her sister’s birthday party with her Halloween (Dolly) costume. That made it more exciting.

We have five new baby kittens for free to a loving home. They are eating really well. Just give me a call at (417)634-3734.

I am anxious for Cindy to get safely from her big trip. We hear too much bad stuff from traveling.

Politics can go on and on. I am ready for people to get along. Does that happen any more?

High School basketball is now starting. That is my favorite sport, after rodeos and all horse activities.

Deer season is about to begin for the big horns. My grandkids hunt on my farm. You all be careful of bears and other wild animals who have made their way onto private land. They can’t read.

Sympathy goes to all those who lost loved ones.

Wishing you all a safe week.
