Christine tells me I forgot to mention that there are live longhorn cows (2, not just 1) on the side of the road on the way out to Steiner Ranch that we assume are there either to advertise the numerous BBQ Restaurants or more likely for photo opportunities for unsuspecting tourists. Sigh... One even has a Texas flag behind it - yes we have been tempted to stop, but no we never have....
In the mean time there is more rain which will undoubtedly delay our house. It's nice that the lakes are full, but come on people! Here are at the end of summer - wishful thinking! - and I've only watered my lawn twice!!! and yes, it's green and growing.
Oh, BTW, the traffic into town from Steiner Ranch is even worse in the rain. The good news is a friend of mine who lives out there says it's quick after 8 AM - you know all those folks out in the suberbs like to get to work early. Good news for us slacker types who like to go for a run before work!
Christine had lunch with Noah today and the kid that Noah likes to hang our with - Max - had a Nutella sandwich, a chocolate cookie with chocolate fudge filling and chocolate frosting, and chocolate milk. Sigh... not sure which is worse, the chocolate lunch or the kid at Brykerwoods who would only eat the candy and crackers (and the crackers only by force) out of the Lunchables package. Please, parents, read the ingredients of the food you are feeding your children! Nutella is not made from just nuts. It's chocolate! At least send peanut butter, and you should buy organic peanut butter that is made out of peanuts and maybe some added salt! Do you really needed added sugar and corn syrup in everything? OK, fine, bring on the flames about how I'm abusing my child by "making" him eat a vegetarian diet.
