Sticky glue traps--the kind that catches mice, flies, etc---you know what I'm talking about. Have you ever touched one? Have you ever stepped on one? Have you ever had one in your HAIR? Well, don't scroll down for the picture because there isn't one, but yes, it happened to me! Long story short, I climbed into a chair in the barn and hit a "fly sticky trap" with my head. Not a good thing to do. Our farm helper was there and said, "Ms Barbara, you don't need me, you need your hair-doer." He finally got it out but my hair was full of glue. Ed's solution was to get the scizzors---NOT! I called Sharon. She said try baking soda--the glue turned to a hard mess. I called Sharon again. She said try clothes detergent (which happened to be Cheer). About six washings with Cheer, three with shampoo and LOTS of conditioner and I am now glue free. Bad enough for this to happen but my house was full of guys who thought this was very funny and had all sorts of solutions--WD40 being one of them.
While all of this was going on all the guys were eating. I came to the kitchen and told Sam we had a surprise for him. I had made him a certificate for graduation from Cotton Branch Day Care and a certificate for the "Best Nap Taker" Award. Papa also brought him some balloons and a happy for his graduation. He was thrilled. Papaw H. and Papa were trying to get excited about the idea. His day was spent with his brothers and two college guys fishing. What more could a four year old want!
Family is gathering for the reunion; Bude Run/Walk in the morning. Update on that later. Deck pictures to follow.
