I had no idea how brutal and intense showing livestock at the fair can be. I have learned more this week than I did in six years of college. I'll be back once I recover.

Death is beautiful when seen to be a law, and not an accident - It is as common as life. ~Henry David Thoreau, 11 March 1842, letter to Ralph Waldo Emerson

About Me
- Mechelle
- As a child I would sit on my hands, palm side up, to try to get the sticky off them. This was especially important to do after eating an orange. Then in the next breath I would pour Elmer's glue all over my palm, spread it thinly, and wait for it to dry. Once it was dry I would carefully peel it off and then bury it in the flower pot outside. I've learned to use soap and warm water, my oldest son has a fascination with glue, I still can't find pants that "fit", I would like to burn all socks and bras (except of course those that I wear to run), and if I didn't run everyday I would need to be medicated, heavily, with either Prozac or chocolate. Then I really would have a difficult time finding pants that fit.

In the end, what we do - we do for the children. I hope my three truly realize that for the past two days I allowed UV rays to penitrate and then char and sear my flesh to a crisp so they could have their fun. :(
See you in the morning.
Love the braids - great job Mary.
Mechelle, I'm looking forward to hearing how it all went. Take a nap first.
The pigs looked good - and tastey! Seneca did a great job for her first time out. And I too learned much about pigs.
