We Bid a Fond Farewell to Kevin in Sharing 487

[Lynx]

Yo, Bro. Bobby, check it!

Any bets on what Rusty would have been worth?  (Not that you'd sell him of course.)

[Roscoe]

If he'd been at that auction, where people had more money than brains, probably $50k. That auction was obscene. People were buying the hype. Yes, many of the cars and trucks were "brand new" as in no miles- but 50+ years of Nebraska winters and springs, stored outside, left most of them as rusty hulks. An acquanitance that lives in the area said most of them wouldn't even make good parts cars, 'cause they were so rusted. Sad.


And in sharing- my mother in law nearly made me bawl tonight. I walk into the church fellowship hall after work, to the potluck. My mother in law, not knowing of my shoulder issue, comes walking by me and does something TOTALLY out of character for her. She grabs my left arm- the sore one- and put me in an armbar takedown, a manuever that forces the arm up the middle of the back.
I nearly blacked out.  She knows the move because she works at a mental facility. She is either very good at it or I was hurting worse than I thought. Lord, the pain...now, three hours and a pain pill later, it's settled to a dull throb...

That is some MIL.  Sis. Roscoe keeps you in check I'm sure.

It was so out of character for her, it'd have been funny if I hadn't been in agony.

[Lynx]

Bobby:  Yeah, I was wondering about the rust factor... All those years can't be kind on metal.  Didn't want to say anything though, and ruin a potential Chevy fanboy's dream. 

And Bro. Bobby, check your PM.

[Heather]

I didn't make it to the last service of conference. My car decided to die 3 times before i could get it out of the parking space and another 4 trying to get it out of the driveway. I did however get all my homework and housework done. Brandon made it home and we went to the gym. Cardio is much easier to do when there is football on the TV. IMO.

Day off tomorrow. Hopefully getting my advance and ordering that stupid part for my car. I told Brandon tonight that if this $330 part fixes everything wrong with that hunk o' Honda I was gonna have a Holy Ghost shout down. He laughed but knew I was serious.

[Roscoe]

Morning, all..... Feeling a bit better today, not as much pain.  It's a drizzling day though.....and for some reason, why I don't know, I felt like I needed to wear my bulletproof vest today. I ain't put that thing on in two years. I hope it is completely unnecessary today. And Isaac, I got the p.m. Will do.

[Melody]

50* is not warm.   time to pull out our winter clothes and hurry up and get the kids coats.

We sure hope it's unnecessary too.

[The Purple Fuzzy]

Saying a prayer, Bobby, just in case.

I think folks should pay attention to those promptings.

[SippinTea]

*prays for Roscoe*

[MelodyB]

Anyone hear from him today? Ive text him with no reply as of yet...that was better than a hour ago.

[Lynx]

Phone reception at his house stinks.  Texts won't get through.

[Roscoe]

I am touched that y'all care so much. Thanks for the prayers. The vest was indeed un-necessary today, but I've learned over the years to listen to those gut instincts. They've kept me safe a couple of times in the past...

[The Purple Fuzzy]

Wear it tomorrow too...

[Melody]

Wear it tomorrow too...

I agree.  There are a number of things throughout the Body happening enough that I don't feel it's random.  It certainly feels like an escalation in spiritual warfare.

[SippinTea]

Yes, please. Do wear it tomorrow. If for no other reason than the friends who care and are praying. And we shall continue to hope and pray that your week is boring, uneventful, and that the vest is completely unnecessary.

[MelodyB]

My latest share:

Allan and I got stuck in a graveyard tonight. Had to walk back to church and get the van and go back and jump off the truck. Haha. It was hilarious! We did all that, and still made it a mere ten minutes after curfew. We did good.

[Lynx]

MelodyB:  Almost sounds like a Ray Stevens song. 

In local news, I'm packing to go to General Conference.  No, I'm not wearing my cape (not cold enough) but I will be taking two of the shirts with a pocket in the shoulder, and of course I'm wearing my toe shoes.  I think that's plenty weird er... individualistic for this trip.

[mini]

I think Roscoe should wear his vest AND stay away from Dr Pepper/fast food today.  Call it a gut feeling...

*cough*

[Roscoe]

*cough*

And I think you done bumped your head. Vest- yes. Dr. Pepper? Dream on.....

[mini]

Keep up with the Dr Pepper and fast food and you will have a gut...feeling...

[The Purple Fuzzy]

[Roscoe]

Nothing more spiteful than a reformed Dr. Pepper addict. I think you are just jealous.

And for those of you that don't know...pray for Taco. He 's in the hospital.

[Backseat Radio]

Keep up with the Dr Pepper and fast food and you will have a gut...feeling...

I'll keep my Dr Pepper and fast food habit .


Feeling really groggy.  Got plenty of things to do today if I can get the fog cleared out of my brain.
