Service Please
I became confused when I heard these terms that reference the word ‘service’.
Internal Revenue ‘Service’
U.S. Postal ‘Service’
Telephone ‘Service’
T.V. ‘Service’
Civil ‘Service’
City & County Public ‘Service’
Customer ‘Service’
This is not what I thought ‘service’ meant. But today, I overheard two farmers talking, and one of them said he had hired a bull to ‘service’ a few cows. BAM!!! It all came into perspective. I now understand what all those ‘service’ agencies are doing to us.
I hope you feel as enlightened as I do.

I have been down this road TWICE — and Blogger’s directions stink and GoDaddy is of zero help. Nada, zip, zilch … you get the picture of pure nothingness. So here is a better explanation that worked immediately. Visit Blogger Busters.
Too Many Butts
As an officially diagnosed anal-retentive woman, I am known to have serious issues with little boys wiping their own butts. More often than not, the poop gets smeared and that is just gross-a-roo!
I am also a self-professed wipe-a-holic. I insist on using wipes (my best friend) to clean anyone’s butt under the age of 7. After 7, they’re on their own. Too bad … I draw the poop wiping line at 7!
Anywho, thank goodness for multiple bathrooms. The boys all lined up in the doorway to have their hineys wiped clean of that yuck. 1, 2, 3 … wait … 4?!?! Ummm, who broke the golden rule? Yes, folks. He was the 13yo. Oh, ICK!
I was totally grossed out while he fell on the floor in fits of laughter. Paybacks are a b****.
Nature Notes: May 11, 2008
It’s been a while, I know! Tsk, tsk …
Today began as a muggy and hot day. I think it was above 80 degrees at 6am. I stepped outside and into my virtual sauna. We went to the beach this afternoon, and it was a double red flag, so no swimming. The boys enjoyed playing in the overflow area.
I am on call this week for nesting turtles. I don’t expect any calls this week because it is early in the season.
Finally, we put out our hummingbird feeders and changed the wild bird seed (because it only attracted Mourning Doves) to Cardinal seed. The finch socks went up as well. Hopefully, we can attract a more diverse population of birds.
On the subject of Mourning Doves, two of them were perched contentedly upon the banister. They made no effort to move when I bounded out onto the porch. I suppose they are comfortable with us human types.
