A week ago today I was rounding up all of our fair entries including some produce from the garden.
It was early morning and heading back to the porch with cantaloupe, apples, and okra in a large bowl, I noticed something odd to the side of the house.
Upon closer inspection I discovered we had a visitor.
Where did you come from?! And please go back to where ever that is...now....please.
I really don't need you in my life and your making things very hard for me!
Go away!.....Shoo, you overgrown hamburger, Shoo!
He didn't budge and why would he...he probably out-weighs me by 1500 pounds or so.

So I did what any good wife and mother would do, I called the hubby on the cell phone to vent my frustration and look for guidance.
He called the owner of the pasture next to ours and sure-nuff he owns a very large and very male Brangus bull.
Problem is, he lives in the next county and won't be able to do anything about this very unwelcome visitor until later in the morning.
So now I'm seething as I've got to get a kid to band practice and get all of our fair goodies to the expo center. 
Oh good he seems to moving off and outta here,
Git along lil doggie, git along !
And then, he was gone, out of my life... Thank you, Lord.
So now on to much more pleasant and tamer things.

I hope your week has gotten off to a great start!
