Whatcha Up To???

[Titus Bass]

Had my first court date yesterday. Only thing that happened was me paying another 1000 a month. Tried to make me believe that her son is charging her 1000 a month to stay in his house while he is working out of state on a 5 year project.. Keep me in your prayers......It's a trying time.....

Got 1.1 overnight and raining again.Started at dark thirty making bread and butters.Ended up with 19 pints. That should last me for a year. I found over the years less people ( that I know) do not care for them.I eat them with everything: straight out of the jar,sandwiches,hot dogs, hamburgers, chicken salad , potatoe salad etc. Keeping a close eye on the corn as they are close to being ready.
