More this and that!

Hope Mother's Day found you doing something fun! Betty had given me a wonderful gift of high count sheets earlier in the month. I had asked her to get me some in Idaho Falls, and she did, only they turned into my present! I felt sorta bad about that...but sorta good too, because I love them. Thank you Betty. Tana called while we were feeding, so my visit there didn't last long. Jane called while we were fencing, so she just left a message about having to wait four weeks to open my present.....hummm. Well, today Betty delivered the present. Three bottles of liqueur that she made, that has to age! Yeah Jane!

I should have lots of pictures, but even though I've had my camera with me, I haven't taken pictures...so you have to visualize...the mountains have new snow, and are gorgeous. We've been feeding for Michael with the team and wagon...and it's been a pleasure. I do admit feeding in the morning and fencing in the afternoon wears me out big time. But it's neat to be out doing "ranch" things. We've also been cowboying...cutting out culls to go to market. Toots was a cuss the other day...having fits the whole time. I turned out to not be a whole lot of help as she was rearing and bucking and wanting to play. Just wait...she's got some hard riding coming....!! :) Bridge here tomorrow so I have to do a run through on the house so the ladies think I at least tried.

The other day Ruth was not at all good...I couldn't even wake her up. Today she was as good as I've seen her. Also the aid who helped her bathe decided to do her hair...and makeup..for me! Ruth told her I like it for her to wear lipstick, as I always get it out for her to put on. It's ture. She was gorgeous. So how special is that?
