~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

[Ginger999]

ABC, that sounds like the perfect visit! Enjoy

Rava, I'm glad you made peace with the step mom situation and your dad is no longer suffering in that shell of a body. I'm glad he had a good life. In the end that's all we can ask for. Enjoy those grandsons. Its the best medicine!

Slo, enjoy your babies too. You're fortunate you get to hang out with them as often as you do.

Hey all! Will you join me in another day of freedom?

[Slo]

750 sq. feet is about what I was picturing, Rava. Wish they still built & sold homes of that size. They’re so big here in the states.
I can see why you feel relief that your dad finally passed. It was a long time in coming. That’s amazing that you made up with the stepmother, and could understand that she was acting out of love for your dad.

I’m staying another night up here. I just don’t feel like leaving. Using the tornado warning as an excuse to stay. Spending time especially with my (5 y/o) Beckett tonight! He looks so much like my dad…blast from the past. I brought “Go Fish” with me, and he loves playing it!

Yes, that sounds like a nice visit, Cowboy!

I will join in with you all for another AF day.

Rava, I'm sorry about your father passing away, but I'm glad that you made amends with your stepmother. I'm sure that your father would be happy about that. Sometimes we just have to let things go...

Cowboy, Mr. J is helping his friend with getting the hay baled before it rains.

Another hot and muggy day here with the possibility of some t-sorms later on. I guess that's what happens in July.

Looking forward to another day of freedom...

[Rava]

Good morning Cafe. Thanks for all the kind words about my father. It’s so much easier to let go of resentment and anger and just let it be. I probably wont really have to deal with my step mother or her daughters anymore. They live about 4 hours away. Im just glad it’s over. When I am on my deathbed I want all the drugs. Not tylenol. I have made that clear. LOL. All addiction issues are out the window at that point. Hot dog night was great and well worth it. Today will be another pool day with the boys and my daughters. We are riding the golf cart around the community and the boys follow on their bikes. It’s a great and safe way to wear them out. Slo, glad you are having a good time at your Daughters home. You sound much happier when you are with your grand children! Jude, hope Mr. J. Makes out well today in the heat as he bales hay. Ginger, one year is amazing. I am so happy that Mr. G is right with you. I am almost at the 1 month mark and think I will go for 2 months. Keeping my goals small for now. Cowboy, hope you enjoyed that watermelon and pizza with Amanda and Bruce and Bubba. Hi to Dill! Wishing everyone a safe and sober day.

Today is going to be a darn good day not to drink!

[abcowboy]

Rava, sounds like both you and Slo enjoy spending time with the g-kids and daughters. We don't get to see all our kids as often as we'd like but sure enjoy our time with them when we do.

Hay season is nicely started here Jude, a lot has been cut and some baled. Another week or two and most of it should be baled.

Had a great visit yesterday with Amanda and Bruce. It was a perfect day for sitting out on the deck and eating watermelon. Bruce isn't the neatest eater when it comes to watermelon but I did feed him a couple of pieces lol.

We're picking up Bubba's mom later this morning then headed into Edmonton for a wedding. Bubba's cousin's son is getting married so there'll be lots of visiting done today as well.

Waves to Ginger and dill, hope everyone has a great Saturday!

[dill]

Cowboy, I'd love to have seen Bruce eating that watermelon! LOL I wonder if they make bibs for dogs..... The last round bale was hauled away about 2 weeks ago now, It was a bumper crop! Hope you enjoy the wedding!

Our first house when we married was a 900sq.ft. bungalow. It was perfect for a starter home. I wish more like it were being built these days. I'd be happy with a 750sq.ft. home for the two of us now. But Mr. D will not entertain the idea of moving off this farm. We both love it here, so I guess we'll be staying as long as we can.

This morning has gotten away from me so it will have to be waves Ginger, Rava and Slo for now and a wish for an AF day for all of us here!

[Ginger999]

Hi all. Feeling pretty crummy so keeping it short. I'll take another day of freedom.

[Jude58]

Ginger, hope that you are feeling better today, not much fun being sick.

Twenty four more for all of us please...

[dill]

I sure hope you're feeling better today, Ginger.

I cannot believe how fast the summer is going! It's been a bit of a disappointment because it seems like we have excessive rain or excessive heat, keeping us mostly indoors. Thank goodness for AC!

Coffee's on!

24 more for all of us here, please and thank you.

[abcowboy]

5:16am in Alberta, 24 for me and everyone else who needs them please, and thanks...

I've got breakfast to go along with the coffee dill...

[abcowboy]

It seems that Amanda snuck in a pic while I was feeding Bruce lol

[abcowboy]

Sure hope you're feeling better today Ginger.

Our summer weather has been all over the map as well dill, it looks like a normal week ahead for us now according to the forecast.

How did Mr J make out with the hay Jude? Did they get it all baled?

The wedding started 45 minutes late, it seems that there was a miscommunication between the limo driver and the bride and bridesmaids on where the pick up was supposed to be lol. The groom was more than a bit worried until he found out the cause of the delay haha.

Let's all have a peaceful relaxing Sunday!

[Rava]

Good Morning Cafe. Cowboy wow 45 minutes late. I bet the bride was worried sick too. Thats a stressful way to start your wedding! Ginger, I hope you are feeling better today and back to normal soon. Had a great day yesterday with the family. The boys rode bikes behind my golf cart all around the neighborhood and caught 4 fish that were catch and release. We laid in the pool and basically had a chill day with no alcohol. I am lucky that my kids are not real drinkers. That is a blessing for me. Hope everyone has a good Sunday. 24 more please and thank you!
