"It's 5 Years in Prison and/or a $200,000 Fine Fer Doin' WHAT???????"
You may or may not have noticed that one of my posts are missing. It included Coie, a gun, and an unnamed mythical federally protected varmint that I neither confirm nor deny had been shot and killed after it was found munching on one of our chickens. Yep, since I was feeling compelled by conscience (thanks a lot Mr. E), I made a call and turned myself in. And alls I gots to say is that them TWRA people sure know how to scare a girl into complete teeth chattering compliance. Okay…. Moving on. So I was lucky enough to get out of the house today and hang out with three of my favorite friends. I am a lucky girl. And Coie got to come along and she even got an ice cream cone. Alas, I did not get an ice cream cone. I did, however, get some ice and some semi-fresh air. On our way to Maria’s, I was talking to Coie about her job ( I had to drop her off at work after our ice cream visit) and (as always) I was going over the all important information of what to say if any worthless shmuck started hanging around her cash register. "Coie,” says I, “you just tell them that you got a big mean dad and he’s got a gun”. To which Coie replied, “Mama, if any guys even look my way I’ll tell them that I’VE got a gun and I aint afraid of shootin’ things that aint allowed to be shot” That’s my girl. And this may or may not be a blatant reference to the unnamed federally protected mythical wildlife critter which I will neither confirm nor deny that Coie put a bullet thru. Okay…. Moving on. And speaking of favorite friends, THIS crazy lady plans on running an 867 mile marathon tomorrow with her ENTIRE family. Holy Moses, now that is incredible. Good luck, Kris! You are an inspiration. And lastly, are you getting tired of hearing about me and my dumb cleanse? Well, I’m almost done. I’ll post the last round of measurements / weight on Monday. I ended up really liking this Isagenix thing and may do the 30 day program in the future. I cannot believe how many of you have emailed me (and / or Jess) and are planning on doing it too. I hope you have good luck like me and jess have. And if you don’t cheat, I imagine you will do swell. And, if it helps, I think we’re gonna start a "Team Isa-Blogger" group, so look for the links on my side bar in the next week. SO, If you are also doing the cleanse / program (or planning to), let me know if I can link to you, k? Thanks, Jess, for getting me that stuff. And fine, I will say it, “You were right, I was wrong. I didn’t believe you or your ridiculous claims. so FINE. You win.” You get ten Excellent Little Sister points, which can be put towards a bag of Tofu Oreos. PS Jess posted the sweetest happy birthday picture post for James. Thanks jess, I *really* liked that. You’re good at coming up with stuff I like. What’s next? heh heh |

I'm glad the cleanse is working for you. And I couldn't even imagine being in a marathon. 🙂

Thank you for visiting my blog and leaving a comment. I must say that I have enjoyed myself over here. The music videos were quite entertaining. I am always amazed at how people find interesting YouTube videos. I think it is a talent.

Hooray for Coie – you go, girl!!!
(But Jen, I must say…the thought of a tofu Oreo is quite atrocious! – LOL!)

You are so wrong!!
Ok, we only ran 3.1 miles (a 5K), but our team placed 3rd and we even have a cute little plaque to hang somewhere … I even had a personal best time which I am going to work very hard to beat in October when we run our 2nd 5K as a team!
You are so funny … trust me, just over 3 miles was bad enough … no way we would have made 867 of them! ROFLOL!

Jen,
Well done. I imagine the TWRA doesn't get many folks turning themselves in. It reflects well on you and on the name of Christ.

I knew I was not imagining things! I excitedly tried to drag my husband to the Coie post and POOF! All gone- thank you for reassuing me I was not imagining things. You guys are a lot of fun. I am glad I found your link over at Cammie's (Jumping on the bed).

Yep, Mr. E, i imagine they don't get many calls like mine. they were still S.C.A.R.Y. — and even started threatening prison time and fines. YIKES! they scared me up somethin' fierce. i finally almost started crying and told them, "Look, I did not know at the time that this was illegal, and I'm only calling you now because our family is Christian and I wanted to do the right thing". After that, he softened considerably and the 'agent' who called for the 'follow up investigation' was very kind. But he must've been shaking his head on the other end of the line going, "those crazy californians… why are they moving out HERE??!!"

Its a shame when the right to bear arms is no longer allowed to be used agains " unnamed mythical federally protected varmint" in protection of your own property! Glad the critter is gone.
