Hi, Everyone!

June, that's a lot of walking! Good for you!

Thanks for your TOPP, Suzy!

Heidi, you obviously needed some sleep!

Speaking of sleep . . . time to say Good Night! Sending healing energy, prayers, {{{{{HUGS}}}}}, positive thoughts, and

Close to 8 hours, yesterday, cleaning up brush, as well as, leaning / fallen trees on the trails. The, new, tractor 3 pt mounted chipper worked well. Just cut the offending growth, stuff it in the chipper and move on. Just a start, but my body is 'talking to me'. Had a mild leg cramp wake me from a sound sleep. First cramp in a long time...

Suthunuhs!

Only a Southerner knows the difference between a hissie fit and a conniption fit,
and that you don't 'HAVE' them, you 'PITCH' them.

Only a Southerner knows how many fish, collard greens, turnip greens, peas, beans, etc. make up 'a
mess.'

Only a Southerner can show or point out to you the general direction of 'yonder.'

Only a Southerner knows exactly how long 'directly' is, as in: 'Going to town, be back directly.'

Even Southern babies know that 'Gimme some suggah' is not a request for the white, granular, sweet substance that sits in a pretty little bowl in the middle of the table.

All Southerners know exactly when 'by and by' is.

They might not use the term, but they know the concept well.

Only a Southerner knows instinctively that the best gesture of solace for a neighbor who's got
trouble is a plate of hot fried chicken and a big bowl of cold potato salad. If the neighbor's trouble is a real crisis, they also know to add a large banana puddin'!

Only Southerners grow up knowing the difference between 'right near' and 'a right far piece.' They also know that'just down the road' can be 1 mile or 20.

Only a Southerner both knows and understands the difference between a redneck, a good ol' boy, and po' white trash.

No true Southerner would ever assume that the car with the flashing turn signal is actually going to make a turn.

A Southerner knows that 'fixin' can be used as a noun, a verb, or an adverb.

Only Southerners make friends while standing in lines, ... and when we're 'in line,'... we talk to
everybody!

Put 100 Southerners in a room and half of them will discover they're related, even if only by
marriage.

In the South, 'y'all' is singular, 'all y'all' is plural.

Southerners know grits come from corn and how to eat them.

Every Southerner knows that tomatoes with eggs, bacon, grits, and coffee are perfectly wonderful; that red eye gravy is also a breakfast food; that scrambled eggs just ain't right without Tabasco, and that fried green tomatoes are not a breakfast food.

When you hear someone say, 'Well, I caught myself lookin',' you know you are in the presence of a genuine Southerner!

Only true Southerners say 'sweet tea' and 'sweet milk.' Sweet tea indicates the need for sugar and lots of it -- we do not like our tea unsweetened. 'Sweet milk' means you don't want buttermilk.

And a true Southerner knows you don't scream obscenities at little old ladies who drive 30 MPH on the freeway. You just say,'Bless her sweet little heart'... and go your own way.

To those of you who are still a little embarrassed by your Southernness: Take two tent revivals and a dose of sausage gravy and call me in the morning. Bless your heart!

And to those of you who are still having a hard time understanding all this Southern stuff....bless your hearts, I hear they're fixin' to have classes on Southernness as a second language!

Southern girls know men may come and go, but friends are fah-evah!

There ain't no magazine named 'Northern Living' for good reason. Since there ain't nobody interested in livin' up north, nobody would buy the magazine!

If you're a Northern transplant, bless your heart, fake it.

We know you got here as fast as you could.

Yeah, I know. Some would say
'Dora Has No Class'.

My response would be to look in the closest mirror and say to myself.

''BLESS YOUR HEART''

Never heard of ''Yankee'' magazine, DOrA???? It's a wonderful magazine for Northerners.

In this county, if you put 100 southerners in a room, you'll find that 95 of them are related, and most of those are related 2 or more ways. The other 5 are ''furriners'': in other words from out of county.

My husbands family was from Texas. They couldn't understand a word I said! If I spoke with a fake southern accent, they understood me, even though my attempt at a southern accent would have had you laughing til you cried. It was bad, really bad.
