Mamaw has been out huntin for new buttons for Poppy’s big winter coat. He’s gonna take that with us to Michigan to wear at the Notre Dame Football game. I asked why they would want to sit out and BE COLD just to watch the game when they could be warm and watch the TV. Mamaw said, “Miss Scarlett, there are just some things on my “bucket list” I want to fulfill. Whatever… Mission accomplished—she came home with the coat and the buttons looking pretty pleased with herself.

Just inside the door really, the phone rang. It was Becky—EMERGENCY! Yes, Cully is very sick and must go to the doctor, could Ozzie come to our house. Mamaw ran right over there and brought him back. It was okay for a while but then I could see he was demanding lots of attention from her and I got a little jealous. Well, good God—I’m here too—and I want part of her. He wanted my little chew thingy but she managed to take that from him. And he goes to the kitchen—he wants some of my snaps. She gave him 4 and I only got 1! Is that fair???

They had a terrible time getting Cully in the car but then off they went. I guess they’re gonna put him in the hospital and run some tests. Mamaw said they should have called the ambulance to come get him.

And then later Mark O’Meara and Brianne came to our house. Mark was tryin to set up the wireless router so Mamaw will have internet while we are in Michigan. She wants to keep up on the blogs so it really is necessary. Oh, oh—they’re havin trouble…Isn’t going to work—Mamaw has to make a call to Belkin in the morning with everything else she’s got goin on.

The phone rings, Becky’s friend is coming to pick Ozzie up for the night. Well, that’s good cause after HE left she went to the bedroom (alone) and got herself in a dress and all kinds of jewelry. I told her she looked good enough to eat!

Well, she didn’t eat. Instead she had two glasses of wine. Oh my God, Mamaw—what are ya doin? She said they were gonna go to the Branstad “Winner Take All” party at the HyVee Corporate office. Poppy came home and thought she looked “delicious” so he took a few pictures.

I’m just wonderin around feeling left out of everything. I don’t understand what is goin on in our house that causes so much activity. I really like it best when it is quiet. Not gonna happen here for a while…
