Cuz I heard Jesus, He drank wine And I bet we’d get along just fine, He could calm a storm and heal the blind, And I bet He’d understand a Heart like Mine

Who's kissin you tonight...

So I was gonna post about that goings on 'round here but I CAN NOT get this one person of my head.  It doesn't make sense because I really don't know him, but I can't get him of my mind =\  And it's annoying as h#ll lemmie tell ya!
And there's this one Jason Aldean song that fits this situation perfectly:

"I don't think of you every day and night, I got things to do, yeah I'm doin' alright, so I can't explain while in times like these, I nearly go insane when you're not here with me"

The Night All Hell Broke Loose With The Horses

That's a wonderful title huh?  Well that's what happened last night; all hell broke loose with the horses...namely mine.  It was my dad's mare, Boogie, and my paint horse Tonto, tied to the fence, saddled and soakin, lettin 'em think about it ya see.  With only the intention of riding Tonto, dad comes out to the barn where I'm already taking pictures of the horses.  "Let me get on him first and make sure he's not gonna buck then you can ride him" dad says...alrighty then, I'll just set on the fence and watch.  Nothing's gonna happen, Tonto's a 12 yr old "kid" horse....sure he's been turned out all winter and has a grass belly so big that we had to let the cinch out as far as it would go, but he's good and broke, he's not gonna act stupid, right?  HA WRONG!  After two laps around the lot, ol paint bogs his head and bout throws dad over the fence.  This is just WONDERFUL.  So when jackass Tonto calms down, dad gets off, says [quite] a few cuss words and tells him what a sorry thing he is, we take off across the parkin lot to the other barn where the round pen is.
Long story short, by the time dad got done with him Tonto wasn't feeling near as froggy.  And to make Tonto feel even more bad about himself(lol) dad went and got the little brat Boogie and threw her in the round pen with Tonto.  So after a little more cussing from dad, we take the horses back to our barn, unsaddle them and go to the house.

SO what's to happen with Tonto?  Um, dry lot, standing saddled in the evening, more dry lot, a diet of hay, and possibly a trip to the Northy's for a month or so to get him calmed down a little.  And hopefully I'll have something to ride during shipping

Tonight I'll go saddle Tonto and let him soak more then maybe take him back to the round pen again....but this time he might not be lucky enough to get to stand in the shade.

Horses.  Can't like with em and can't like without em!

I'll post updates on the horses later on tonight or in the morning...depending if hell brakes loose with them again...haha

Summer State of Mind


Its Summer(not officially, but its pretty close anyway), and I'm just loving it.   Straw hats, ripped jeans tucked into my boot tops, gettin tan...it all makes me happy!:)  Oh and I can't forget the Riding Horses part either!
My horse, Tonto a.k.a Pinto Beans(thanks to my dad)
There's a 99% chance that I'm gonna be riding ^him^ tonight.  And during shipping(when me and dad go help a ranch ship cattle out) oh boy, talka bout something that makes me laugh!  Shipping, haha, last year was interesting enough!  It all mainly had to do  the kid in the gray shirt and black cap in this picture(4th from the right)

Haha yes he kept it interesting! *Josie snickers* He sure thought he was the stuff till he couldn't get his horse, which I call Ol Sorrely(in a extremely sarcastic tone) led through the gate, and while this is going on, my best friend looks at me with that "Don't make me start laughing at him" look of hers....quite a morning that was.
Since I've got a good horse to ride this year, i get to go horseback instead of riding in the feed truck like I did last year, hehehe me+Kate+dumb/young cowboys= TROUBLE! lol

And let us not forget the our other enemies acquaintances, the Northys(not technically their name but close enough), I shutter at the thought of them boys...just kidin, I really want the loosen the cinches on their saddles and make their horses run off...har de har har
   Anyways, let us show a picture of the Legends In Their Own Mind(as Kate would say)
From the guy on the paint horse and to the right minus the other one who had already rode off
Yessir they are dandies!


Enough with that, how bout some more pictures I've taken in the last couple days...





"I'm a Bird" 
Yes I do believe Mr. Summer has arrived in on the Prairie!

*I wrote most of this last night...before all hell broke loose with the horses(that post is comin right up), so I'm gonna end this post and go write about my hellion paint horse!*

XOXO

Favorite Song{of today}


Rolling in the Deep by Adele

Alright so I just discovered this song yesterday and I'm totally IN LOVE with it!  Normally I only like country music, but this song is defiantly an exception.  
It has a very '60s/'70s sound and this gal can hit them high notes without ever blinking a eye.  
So listen to it, and tell me what you think?  Pleeeeaaaase? :)

Hugs & Kisses

{This is such a 16-year-old-girl-post}

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH..
.alright I'm feeling dramatic tonight.  Please forgive me. :) Lol okay carrying on with the post

Cast of this post:
Me{Damsel in Distress/Dodge Truck lover ect}
Dad{Person whom I know the Suspect through/person whom has brain-washed me on
loving Dodge trucks}
E.{Suspect.  aka Ed or Eddie.  aka the SOB who has got me all freakin Twitter-Pated!}

SO there's this boy.  He's cute and he's tall, and 17, he's got gorgeous green eyes 
and drives a Dodge truck that's a standard and blows black smoke
(I like Dodges that roll black smoke.....I am I Hick Chick and I'm damn proud of it!),
 he wears cowboy boots and Wranglers, likes driving fast and muddin.....
And he's a complete outlaw(i.e, he drinks, doesn't have a driver's licence, 
gets in trouble on a regular basis, is in alternative school for not doing hardly any of his
 work, ect ect ect)....So basically everything that I shouldn't want/don't need. 
 He's friends with my dad and thinks the sun rises and sets on my dear ol daddy because
 Dad drives a Dodge and acts like a 20 yr old some of the time....most of the time....alright 
all of the time.  So this is possibly the reason I like E.(code name for Mister Green Eyed 
Dodge driver Outlaw dude ;), because he is like my dad!
This all started back in August of last year I guess.  I added E. as a friend on Facebook 
because dad always talked about him and called him a little Redneck.  I had no intentions 
of starting to "like" E., I promise! Sure he drove a white Dodge flat bed...with stacks
(another + in my book)....that blew black smoke like C.R.A.Z.Y....and admittedly I did 
think he was cute but not in *That* way, ya know?
So anyways, one day, me and my mom were in town and drove by the local mechanic 
shop on Main Street and E.'s Dodge was sitting out by the road, looking like a complete 
Redneck truck with the 4-foot-too-tall-stacks(that just so happen to be my dad's old ones), 
naked ladies on the mudflaps(there's a very slim chance anyone knows what I'm talking 
about), 
windows tinted black(another thing that me ♥'s)...all that good stuff.  Anyway after I get 
back to my grandma's I text my best friend Kate(because she's friends with E.) and say :


"i saw the most retarded looking Dodge setting down on main street today!"

{Retarded is one of my most used words...sorry if it offends anyone;}

And Kate says:
"Was it Eds?! naked ladys on the mudflaps?!"
Me:
"lmao yep!, and the stacks that stick up 4 foot over the cab?!"


Kate:

"Yup!!! lmao! ol Ed S***G!"(I "*" out his last name for normal purposes)

So carrying on.  E. wrecks the white Dodge, drinkin and drivin...told ya he was a outlaw!! 
 The truck dies, Eddie survives....no biggy.  Still at this point I don't really give a damn
 bout him.  So he starts driving his old(key word being O.L.D.) Orange Chevy.
  I'm talkin Orange(like the fruit) Orange.....we go to town one day, pass him on the
 Bird Creek bridge, of course I know who it is.  There's not too many trucks that 
look like that running around our little town;)  So this is around the first of September
 I guess.  Flash forward about a week, Kate's back in school, she see's E. every day ect.
So one day, while texting Kate...we were talking about trucks(Chevy vs. Dodge) 
and out of the blue, she says:

"I know somebody who likes you=) lmao!"

{sh!t's fixin to get deep when Kate starts using "=)"...lol}

So I ask:
"who the hell are you talking about?!lmao"

{I apologize for my cussing}

Kate:
"Edward S***G wont quit asking about you!!"


Me:
"Oh Lord! lol"

Kate:
"Its hilarious!"
  
{She's a smarta**....hahahaha And I mean that in a very loving way!}

Me:
"I'm glad you find it funny!"

Kate:
"Oh believe me i do!"

*Insert me saying something really sarcastic about one of her ex boyfriends,
while inwardly I'm jumping up
 and down for whatever reason*

So fast forward to about 10:00 that night when I really start thinkin bout ol E.,
 I send her a text
asking what he was asking about me, and she sends a reply that reads:

"He told me ur very pretty he wntd to knw if your parents wuld let u go
 out ona date and stuff like tht hw old u wer an tht u lukd like me an 
thts y u r prety!"

Translation from "texting talk":
"He told me you're very pretty, he wanted to know if your parents
 would let you go out
 on a date and stuff like that.  How old you were and that you looked like me 
and that's why you are pretty!"

{Oh did I mention Kate and Eddie dated  thru 8th grade and Freshman year?  Yeah. Lol}

She went on to tell me a little more about him and make sarcastic remarks as usual.

Anyway, by now who ever is reading this is prolly getting bored huh?
I shall hurry it up then...maybe.

So I see E. as we're driving through town a couple times in his Orange truck,
I still inwardly think he's cute  and develop a major secret crush on him, 
but keep my mouth shut and not even tell Kate even tho she says he asks about me 
every day.  I think she prolly kinda guessed that I liked him because when 
she said "He's really wanting to go out with you" and I said "Well as bad as I hate to 
say it, he's just gonna  halfta wait till I turn 18"

After a couple months, he stops asking about me....but then it starts back up with a
 text  from Kate saying:

"well last night eddie wouldnt leave me alone an he is like head over heels 
for u an wants me to get u to txt him"

Here we go again....

Occasionally I'll get a "like" from E. on facebook....on a good day maybe a comment.

After a while they dwindle off and he goes back to *ahem* dating one of my friend's
 little sister's.
I'm back to not caring(or so I say), totally over him.

Fast forward to about a month ago, I walked into my aunt's antique shop, 
not paying any attention and defiantly N.O.T expecting to see Eddie in there since
 his new(older) Dodge wasn't parked out front.  I walk over to talk to talk to my aunt, 
still not paying any attention.  Look up and see E. and his friend walk through the door
 from the other side of Aunt's shop.
"Oh.  Sh*t."
Que me drawing a complete BLANK!  So I get over my little short-out/not being 
able to  answer my aunt's question, have a pretty successful rebound and 
starting praying to  God that  E. doesn't say anything to me in front of my 
mom/aunt since they know nothing  about him liking me.  
 I set down behind the counter and proceed to go thru a box of old  shotgun shells 
duking my head where he can't see my face because of the cowboy hat I  had on.

 Yeah I'm a major Shy Child!

Him and his friend buy a washboard...for whatever reason. 
 I glance up enough to look at him(*ahem*the angels shoulda started singing...lol) 
For a split second he looked at me
(ok, seriously, why in the hell didn't the Angel start singing?!)
No, I didn't faint nor did I say anything stupid.  I just dropped my eyes
 and went back to looking thru the shotgun shells! 
He went out the door, talking to his friend, smiling(♥) as I tried to recover
 and answer mom/aunt's question about me knowing who he was. 
 *Insert Eye Roll here* OF COURSE I KNOW WHO HE IS! 
I get a couple of playful jabs about how he was prolly coming in here to stare at me.

I walk out, texting Kate and telling her to text E. and ask him if he saw me today, 
she asked him and we went into a whole big texting convo about me and him. 
I realize that I do infact still like him...alot.  
And I'm starting to realize that I hate feeling like this because
 with my mom and dad being as over-protective as they are, 
there's no way in hell that I'll be able to be around him 
until I'm 18. 
Yeah This makes me feel just wonderful.
Basically, he's everywhere I look.  His name.  Pictures of him on Facebook.
Seeing him every time we go to town ect.

Just like today, me and mom went out to this little burger joint called Aunt Sam's
 (aka a travel trailer pulled under a old carwash..that's totally another story tho). 
 You can bout guess who was there...yep Mr. Dodge drivin', Green eyed, 
cuter than hell Eddie. He looked  up about the time we drove by where he
 was standing and saw me.  (How romantic.  I know.  Ha Lordy) 
We were pulled around behind the carwash, and i could see him walking
 back and forth, waiting on his order. 
 Finally when mom got out to get our order, I hear Eddie's Dodge 
start up from around on the other side...that same old sound of a older Dodge 
standard starting.  I love it...anyways, while I'm sitting in the truck waiting on mom,
 he pulls around and drives by my open window, rev-ing/shifting his truck up 
as he went by.  I glanced up at him with a smile then looked away....

Don't know what I'd do if I ever talked to him...I'd prolly pass out and fall over.
Guess I better make sure Kate's with me so she can catch me as I fall over!Lol



Anyways, I guess we'll see if anything ever becomes of me and Eddie ;)
I just had to get all of that off my head/heart, ya know
Thanks for reading all this(Even tho I doubt any of yall read the whole thing. 
 And if you did, you're wonderful!)
XOXO
