Today ...
Not a lot going on this week. I been building web sites... one for Music Industry University, one for Pickens Auctions, started one for Gregg Pickens Real Estate, and working on a new one for Flatland Entertainment, plus keeping up with my PCL. Long days sometimes, haha... I hear that Heather is really getting uncomfortable, with Madison Ann about to be born. Her and Paul checked in at Stilwater Medical Center and did all the paperwork. I hear that Paul bought Madison a couple of outfits to wear to the Fair this summer, haha... Tammy stopped by and borrowed the camera to take some more pics of her kiddos at school. She is working on a really neat thingy for presentation at school for her kiddos using powerpoint presentation with a really neat new song that just came out as the background music. Austyn was in Grandma's candy jar.. haha...
Our neighbor, our family mechanic, dropped by and picked up the pieces to the Case tractor at Phillips that has had the front end broken off of it since last October. Maybe we are a step closer to getting it fixed, we will see... haha..
Jake has been helping Fred Shultz on his ranch. They are AI'ing one group of cows next week so they been cycling them, getting them ready, selling show calves and bulls, and his boss had knee surgery so he has been extra busy there, plus they are getting another set of cows ready to put embroye another group. This is one of the highest tech ranches in OK. They, Fred and Jake, are eagerly awaiting their first clones, that are supposed to be here and ready to implant after the first of the year. This will make them the first in OK to implant cloned cattle.
Phil has been working hard at his new job. He said they are getting a new round of computers, and he is really excited, as the old ones were really dated and slow and hard to see. He is gardening, and making pottery, and ... a bunch of other things, too. I will share that I recieved the rest of my birthday gifts from him, but will wait till I get my camera and take pics to show you how really awesome the gift was!!
Ann is busy mowing our yard this am. Jake and I got her an early Mother's Day present, a new push mower for the yard.. and her.. haha!! I had a dentist appoinment this am, and if you know me, you know I dislike dentist. But I have a new crown, and go back for more work starting next week, yuck!!! I did wash Ann's car, and did some maintaince work on it. And that is something when I do that!!!
Grandma is getting a new Angus Bull from Alpha Angus south of Perkins. They raise AI Angus, registered, and raise them on grass, so what you see is what you get! No fancy hair cuts, or extra fat from feedlots here! I think we pick him up in the am, or MK and her, not sure who.
Jonathan and Randi, and Kaitlyn are coming up tomorrow to visit and bring up some of their Easter pictures for us, so I bet we try to get all the kiddos together for either lunch or dinner tomorrow, that will be so cool!!
Love my kiddos!!
Paul was chasing a "bad guy" who tried to stab another person, and the bad guy jumped over a bridge, and Paul chased after him, and hurt his knee... Paul won of course. You can not out run the Stillwater Police Officers!! He is also playing baseball for the first time ever on the Stillwater Police Dept. team. Heather and Andrew go and watch, and say they are having a ball. Andrew has made friends and all is well! They raise goats too, and have a round of babies due when Heather is due!!
Not sure what else to report, all is well and good, and if it would just rain, we'd have it made!
Have a great day... remember to stop and smell the roses!

Lil' Sis wins BIG award ......
Lil' Sis, with Kaitlyn...
Posted by me. Please, click on image to enlarge.
Yelp, Marilyn won a BIG woodie last week from her place of employment for the last oh, 20, 30, plus years of work! The Center for Veterinary Sciences held their Annual Awards Banquet April 8, 2005. Marilyn Kay won the Stratton Staff Award which involves money and award. The award is named after Dr. Louie Stratton, one of the vets who were among the first to come to our dairy when we moved to Stillwater, and he was a life long friend. Just wanted all to know... and yelp, we are all proud of her and her many accomplishments!
Went to Great Grandma's yesterday morning to see about a few things, and she happened to be in a picture taking mood, so we took a few of her and the beautiful bibs that she is making for Madison and Kaitlyn. They are really neat and you can tell how proud she is by the wonder work in the pieces. She is really a wonderful seamstress, and is finally getting a chance to show off her skills. She has made several baby quilts too... and Christmas stockings.. love her work, and NO there is no bias here, just cuz I am her son, does not mean a thing.. haha... enjoy the day. Of course, I took many photos.. so I will post later. Some of them are of Wheat on the east side of our farm where Marilyn lives. It is the last field we have in wheat.

Aunt Thelma Wiseman, Grandpa Shaklee's sister sent this note along about Pete...
Stan I haven't forgotten, but I do have some excuses. Ha Pete has had
pneumonia and was in the hospital for 2 weeks , he is feeling much
better, going to the Mall to see his buddies this morning. Every
morning they have their coffee and gossip, or talk which he says. Ha.
A customer asked me to crochet her 50 scrubbers by the 12 of April, well
I had to get on the ball and get them made, but I beat the deadline, and
she has already picked them up. They don't order just 2 or 4 anymore, it
is 50 or a hundred, then it gets me on the ball. I can't seem to get
any ahead. I love to make them and keeps me out of trouble.

THIS SHOULD RATTLE YOUR BRAINS A LITTLE
If you ever feel stupid, then just read on. If you've learned to speak fluent English, you must be a genius! This little treatise on the lovely language we share is only for the brave. Peruse at your leisure, English lovers. Reasons why the English language is so hard to learn:
1) The bandage was wound around the wound.
2) The farm was used to produce produce.
3) The dump was so full that it had to refuse more refuse.
4) We must polish the Polish furniture.
5) He could lead if he would get the lead out.
6) The soldier decided to desert his dessert in the desert.
7) Since there is no time like the present, he thought it was time to present the present.
8) A bass was painted on the head of the bass drum.
9) When shot at, the dove dove into the bushes.
10) I did not object to the object.
11) The insurance was invalid for the invalid.
12) There was a row among the oarsmen about how to row.
13) They were too close to the door to close it.
14) The buck does funny things when the does are present.
15) A seamstress and a sewer fell down into a sewer line.
16) To help with planting, the farmer taught his sow to sow.
17) The wind was too strong to wind the sail
18) After a number of injections my jaw got number.
19) Upon seeing the tear in the painting I shed a tear.
20) I had to subject the subject to a series of tests.
21) How can I intimate this to my most intimate friend?
There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple.
English muffins weren't invented in England or French fries in France.
Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren't sweet, are meat.
Quicksand works slowly, boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.
And why is it that writers write, but fingers don't fing, grocers don't groce and hammers don't ham?
If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn't the plural of booth beeth? One goose, 2 geese. So one moose, 2 meese?
Doesn't it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend. If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it? Is it an odd, or an end?
If teachers taught, why didn't preachers praught? If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?
In what language do people recite at a play and play at a recital? Ship by truck and send cargo by ship?
Have noses that run and feet that smell?
How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise ! man and a wise guy are opposites?
You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in which your house can burn up as it burns down, in which you fill in a form by filling it out, and in which, an alarm goes off by going on.
English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of the human race, which, of course, is not a race at all. That is why, when the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible.
P.S. - Why doesn't "Buick" rhyme with "quick"?

From Uncle Ivan...
CHALK ONE UP FOR THE OLD DUDE
An older, white haired man walked into a jewelry store one Friday
evening with a beautiful young gal at his side.
He told the jeweler he was looking for a special ring for his girlfriend.
The jeweler looked through his stock and brought out a $5,000 ring and showed it to him.
The old man said,
"I don't think you understand, I want something very special."
At that statement, the jeweler went to his special stock and brought another ring over.
"Here's a stunning ring at only $40,000," the jeweler said.
The young lady's eyes sparkled and her whole body trembled
with excitement. The old man seeing this said,
"We'll take it."
The jeweler asked how payment would be made and the old man stated, by check.
" I know you need to make sure my check is good, so I'll write it now and you can call the bank Monday to verify the funds and I'll pick the ring up Monday afternoon," he said.
Monday morning, a very teed-off jeweler phoned the old man.
"There's no money in that account."
"I know", said the old man,
"but can you imagine the weekend I had?"
