Gratefulness and Two Shoes in Texas...

Six Sentences with Two Shoes

During this unusual winter I am grateful for many things I had taken for granted.

I am grateful for indoor plumbing, power, fuel and food and am also grateful that I know how to make do. I am grateful for friends and family.

I mention indoor plumbing twice because I remember the out houses, hauling water, breaking ice and freezing my buns while the wind made the wall paper move.  Nothing colder than an outhouse on a winter's day with your behind bare.

Wishing you warmth and blue skies...and indoor plumbing!

Two Shoes In Texas...Six Sentences

In the beginning
A calf frolicked
And made us laugh.
Training her to milk
We didn't turn back.
Life continued
No milk came
while wondering
what was to blame.
We thought
and thought some more.
We needed something
for milk to pour.
In comes the bull
He moos lovingly
Nine months later
There were three.
