Every April I go into it saying, this one is going to be different. This one I won't be so melancholy. I lied. It's a month of memorials.
Y'all- Sis. Patsy. I went to her Facebook to try to find a photo. I had to scroll to 2015 until I found a picture with her in it. I still kept scrolling to try and find one with just her, but I don't think there are any.
Her entire feed showed the love and just how proud she was of her family. There was no doubt she loved her children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, her church family, and well, all of us. I miss her hugs. I miss her gentleness. And of course, Scott. It has been 2 years since he has graced us with a sarcastic comment, an insult, a laugh, or an eyeroll. I still have so many things to tell him. He would get a kick out of me feeding chickens, snuggling up to a possum, and he would have been so proud of his niece graduating college with honors. Always remember him. And while my daddy didn't pass until July, his birthday is the 16th. Jared had a meeting with his surgical team. He has been fitted for a permanent brace, to be used anytime he will be on uneven surface, or would have to bend. I am assuming he won't be able to return to his regular job title, but he is making the best of it. When he went into be fitted, the specialist goes, "you don't happen to be wearing shorts under your pants are you?" He said "no ma'am", and she knew then that there wasn't A THING underneath those pants.
When we were getting dressed, I was trying to find my white watch. Jared said "here is your black one!" I guffawed, and said "I am wearing white pants and carrying my white purse. Puh-lease!"
So he proceeded to find his green knives and cap. It's called fashion. Easter weekend was good. Bailey and Levi were in, and we all, minus Jared, went to the zoo. My Tik Toks for the month :
aaaaand part 2
Why Lisa, why all of the skin breakouts?
Let us not forget the time I tried to making a cooking video PG-13 language.
I did not post this joke to my Facebook page, but Jared did to his ;)
Why I shouldn't be in charge of anything.
Probably my favorite Tik Tok in the history of Tik Tok
I have personally watched this one about 100 times. That swag.
And this. My life. ***R rated language*** Now I am not saying that I know a person that may or may not have a baby possum who life was saved by an unknown family member, but....meet Marcel/Peaches/Percy. A few from Easter Sunday. They're all Levi and family. We didn't take a one.
Speaking of Levi, when he went for his 6 month check up, the Dr said he could start trying soft foods, and juice/water.
He did NOT....like the green beans. Y'all know that scene in Pretty Woman when she's getting dressed and then uses a Sharpie to color in her boot? I present to you.... He makes them look good, though. Even when he's picking out beans. Today was a case of if it fits, I sits, What they really needed, was this guys setup: Maybe I tried to use the zero turn lawnmower. Maybe I had no clue what I was doing. This guy. He's just sitting there. Sharpening knives. No music, no tv on. Just sitting there. I love moments like this. Stupid heart.
After an 8 hour work day, the proof that I live in Kisatchie still lingers. Just follow my sand trail inside.
