Out in the country

I love the place I live. I have lived there all my life -2 years. My parents still live in the house I grew up in. When Jeremy and I got married almost 10 years ago, we moved to Dothan and lived in an apartment. I hated it. I am by no means a city girl. So, after 2 years, we bought a house which is where we live now. My parents live 5 short streets up from us and Jeremy's parents live across the field. Yeah, that is how we give directions out in the country. So and so lives across the whiddon field or across the other field. Yall know how it is. Just about everyone knows who everyone is. I guess it's kinda like Miranda Lambert's song "famous in a small town". Everyone knows ya business. Well anyway I got off of work today around 2:00 and started to come home when I decided I didn't feel like going home just yet. There is a road just down from my house that is a dirt road. It's in Geneva County. Yeah, you could spit from my house and hit the county sign. So I go down this road sometimes and just look at the cows, old houses, streams, and the wooden bridge. It's so pretty out there. I wish I lived on that road. Anyone who knows me knows I love old things. I also love being outside. To me it's a stress reliever. Some people go out dancing or maybe shopping. Some people I don't really know what thet do to reieve stress. Ok so I like to ride in the country or go to he beach. Now, It's January so I know the beach is out of the question. So I stop by the house and grab my camera. I wanted to show yall how pretty it is out here. Some of yall may not even care. And for those people...you suck.
Ok ...well I am waiting for those pics to load on our slow butt internet connection I am watching the news and just found out that Heath Ledger is dead. I was one of my favorite actors. He's my age too. However I did not see or like the brokeback mountain movie. This kinda sucks....
Ok on these pics, The first pic is of the wooden bridge that is on this road. It's so pretty. The water below is actually clear today. The last time I went....there was no water due to no rain....derr.

Ok and the next pic is of the bride itself




and finally this is the side of my house.






It's kinda nice. There are fiels on 3 sides of my house. There is also a stream that runs behind one field. The bad part about all of this is that they (the state of alabama) is going to widen hwy 52 and they are starting to move some of the houses out our way. Yay...more traffic. And with more traffic we are probably gonna get more businesses on other buildings out our way. This is the sole reason I like living out here. Hopefully they won't mess things up down here that much. Then there is the possibility of the 1-10 connector going thru Taylor. There have been rumors.

Off that subject...here is a really old pic....This is Jeremy and I about 11 years ago. My junior prom. We were soooo hot.

mmmmmm.....yEah

Ok just for starters.....this is a pissy blog. No, it's not "red flag" week....I just went to Wal*mart after I got off work today. Ok, it rained practically all day today in Dothan. It was also very very cold. err. Why is it that when it rains, people have to get up really early and take their children to the library? Just a thought. When I am at home and it is raining, I don't wanna take my children anywhere. I hate getting out in the rain. I just wanna watch a movie when it is raing in the winter. Just sucks. Anyway....today it was so busy. I think if you take Monday-Friday of this week, it still wouldn't equal to the amount of ppl in the library. Don't get me wrong, I think it is good for ppl to come to the library...it's good for everyone all around. JUST NOT WHEN IT IS RAINING PEOPLE!!!! Also everyone puts their books in the Piece of Crap-ola thing they call the book drop and we get about $100 of books damaged and it's ALWAYS the bestsellers that get damaged. Ugh! Y'all know what I am talkin about...everyone who reads this has worked at that library. Hah. I love my job, just sometimes not the people. OK, so it rained todaya nd everyone brought their coughing kids into the library and they touched EVERYTHING. So, ontop of me probably being sick...ohhh, sometime in the next 2 days I decided to go to Walmart after work to get some stuff to make chili tonight. I hate going there but somehow always end up there about 2-3 times a week. It just happens. Ok so for the record, any woman/girl/heffer/whatever who is out in public should always wear a bra. Gross. I don't even wanna describe the woman I saw tonight. Talkin about things that make you go Bluah! Don't you hate when your in walmart...yeah that is usually where it happens you know it is, and there is this 300 pound woman in stretch pants and a t-shirt that is 2 sizes too big (usually with holes in it) and she isn't wearing a bra. Did they miss that lesson in Health class? Geees. Ok then there are the ppl who can't count how many items that are in their buggy obviously and are in the 20 items or less line. Soooo all the lines are backed up. Ok so I am in the self check out line( I love those) and this couple is infront of me. They have no people food. By this I mean they have a buggy full of pet treats/food/toys/crap/etc. I began to think these people owned a zoo. They took 1 piece out at a time......look at it........find the b-code.......try to scan it.......then it actually scans......look at it again.......then put it ever so daintily in the bag like it's a dozen eggs. Dangit! So I stood there for like 30 minutes. Errrr . To top all of that wonder experience off. I forgot where I parked as usualy.
OK so on the ride home I am listend to the radio. I guess I should say flippin thru the stations. I pass by one station and they say, "after this,we will be right back with our Retro 90s tunes". WHAT. Since when was the 90s retro? Crap I am gettin old.
So, now that I have rambled on why my chili was cooking, it is now done. I will sit down with the hubby and watch Office Space. That's a great way to end a great work day. mmmmm yeaaah.
