Topic: Samantha n Company
Ok, we have a nice huge yard. Huge actually is an understatement - essentially we have a farm surrounding us. But... I'm speaking about my front yard area here. Daily, the front yard seems to be littered with "stuff". Not my "stuff" but other peoples "stuff" that my 9 mo old German Shepherd, Ruby, gathers from throughout the neighborhood. So far I have found, a pair of someones leather cowboy boots, a plastic mug from DollyWood, a paint roller, a small lap type blanket and interestingly enough, a few pumpkins, which must had been taken off the neighbors porch. (How did she get her jaw around these pumpkins? I'll never know - but she did it). I get very annoyed, every other day or so, when I have to go picking up her collections of goodies because my yard looks so messy. Yesterday was my breaking point. My dog needs counseling! I looked out the window at just the perfect time, here comes Ruby, trotting across the road with someones UPS package in her mouth! I died and then LMAO - I just couldn't believe it. Needless to say I need a support group of some kind, please help!
And another thing....
I'm not really a very religious person. Spritual, yes, but I don't go to church or anything like that. My daughter lives the same way. I was raised Catholic and her Dad was raised Southern Baptist. Samantha is not quite sure what she wants to be, if anything. We happen to live smack dab in the middle of the bible belt, which hasn't much concerned me, to each his own, but apparently my daughter had a recent interesting conversation with a few of the girls at school. She came home, quite amused at the situation and told me all about it.
It kind of went like this:
Friend: What religion are you?
Daughter: I'm not any religion.
Friend: You mean your not from the U.S.?
Daughter: Huh?
Friend: If your no religion then that means your an aethist
Daughter: I do believe in God
Friend: Then your a Christian
Daughter: Do you believe in Ghosts?
Friend: No
Daughter: Why? I do?
Friend: Then your not a Christian
Ok - Is she or isn't she? That's my question. I guess that's for her to determine. Hey - maybe she's a ghost.
