Do you know how some people get seasonal depression when it's dark and cold? This entire month of August I felt like a 2/10 on the happiness scale. What anything particular wrong? Did someone do me wrong? Did I not feel loved and appreciated? No to all. It was just bad. Blazing sun, no cloud coverage, temps averaging 103-111° daily. Zero, and I mean zero rain. Cane River is the lowest that I have seen it. Several feet out, where there should be water all the way up to the banking, is just dry. Now I am not being rude, but if this man were to accidently drive his truck off in the river right now, he could just kick it up a gear and mosey on out. Not only has this been the highest temps and worst drought that I can remember, there have been multiple wildfires. There was one not too far from our place, and a couple of days before we had discussed a plan on what to grab, who is in charge of what, and who grabs what animal. I wanted a cup my daddy bought me, Jared wanted his Bible, and The Child wanted a specific stuffed animal. I had all three of us a clothing bag packed, a few essentials, and was headed to the car with it all when we got the alert that the fire had been contained. So many people in this area have lost their homes, possessions, and even livestock and pets. We have been very fortunate. Levi is growing handsomely and will have a birthday in a couple of weeks! Lily started 4th grade! Some mornings, the 6:00am drive isn't too shabby. Jared keeps me laughing on the daily. This....is probably one of the hardest laughing giggling spells that I have had so far. Also, he accidentally ate his fortune. I saw on Facebook my friend and her family were having burgers, and this was the spread that she presented. I told Jared, knowing we were having burgers that day, "this is what I want". This is what I got. I have been trying for years to get my blood sugar under control. When I had health insurance I had medicine, insulin to take. I did low carb for a while. I have started again, eating better, and I hate it just as much as I did then. Week 1 Week 2 I have a couple of recipes that I have tried. Spicy Creamy Shrimp Pepperoni Roll Ups Ugly Keto Broccoli Casserole I leave with Bray Wyatt's passing. I know "oh it's a celebrity, you don't know them, etc". WWE was one of the few things that Scott and I agreed on, and Bray was his guy. He owned 12 Bray Wyatt shirts, and some weeks we would watch the show just to see his segment. I haven't watched much since Scott passed. It isn't the same with he and Mule gone, they were my go-to people to discuss it with. Seeing something go away that Scott was so passionate about stings a little. It may not make sense to some. This one hurt. Bray was most definitely one of a kind. There was a memorial segment on Smackdown. I recorded it. I haven't watched it yet.
