All Fired Up
Court Lady wearing Steph's bodice jewelry and Faire & Fancy gown
I wish the students were as fired up as the state of Texas ... wildfires have popped up everywhere west of Fort Worth. Right now, Possum Kingdom Lake has turned into an inferno. Not good -- we have high winds, low humidity, and a slight chance for rain. It's been a dry spring. I overheard Dustin saying that normally they mow the faire field once or twice a season; so far, the grass hasn't gotten high enough to mow ... and it's only April.
More drama this weekend -- Alana's mother was hospitalized and, as of Tuesday, no word on what caused her paralyzed condition. Our thoughts & prayers go out to the family during this week of Passover. Scary -- then my mom's phone went on the fritz Monday, until I was ready to get in the car and drive into Dallas to spend the night. Everything's all right (huzzah!), but still a mystery as to why her phones won't work. I'll check things out tonight. What happened with Alana's mom is a reminder that the current family arrangement for Mom may not last forever -- and how I dread that discussion this summer! You know the old saying, "If Momma's not happy, ain't nobody happy."
But ths end of this school year will arrive in 5-6 weeks ... but we have to get through TAKS hell next week.
