I ran over a bloody bird, literally,

Well, today was an awesome little day. Miss Lauren had her one month checkup today. All was well. She's almost ten pounds and 22 inches long. The doctor was happy with her progress, too. After our doctors appointment, we ran some errands and came home for a nice lunch. Later in the evening, after Big Brother of course, we headed over to Arena Autos and mowed for my Father-in-law. While I was mowing, I ran over a fricken bird. Granted it was dead, it was still a bird. And it smelled, LOL. I've never managed to hit a bird or any other animal for that matter. Although, a couple of years ago I unearthed a rabbit den in our north forty. Thankfully I managed to leave the baby bunnies unscathed. With the bird, I just pushed the mower ahead and all the sudden feathers blew out the mulching attachment. What a foul way for a bird to die--oops, well, what a foul way for a bird to get spit out on the pavement ;-)

Tomorrow is going to be a busy day. Gotta get the oil changed on the Trailblazer. We're also going to go mow for Jared's Grandma. She's just about the sweetest little lady either. Getting to spend time with her kinda eases the pain of missing my own Grandmothers. I sure do miss both of them dearly. I would've loved to go down to Oklahoma and play the slots with my Grandma Donna and I know Grandma Carter would've enjoyed helping me make quilts for the kids.

And in about 30 hours or so Karen and I are going to be headed to Oklahoma City...YAYAYAYAYAY! I'm so excited.
