Wednesday

And it is going to rain but it has been the most beautiful day can't wait for the rain. I went and got a haircut today it looks so much better I also picked up more pig feed the Hogs are really growing. Yesterday on my way through town I happened to see the fish truck parked in front of the feed store I stopped and got 50 catfish 10 Bass and 25 bluegill and a whole bunch of minnows I went down again tonight and threw some dog food down the pond and I seen a few of them swimming around no floaters as of yet. I'm still pretty sick I didn't think I was going to make it back up the hill from the pond I just can't get my breath. I made a chocolate cake and a lemon cake today for fleta to take to church tonight she had barbecue chicken the kids will all of it. I picked up a belt for my lawn mower it needed a new drive belt it always needs something I have yet to mow the yard one time without it breaking down. I'm not sure but I think it is just a lemon and I don't know if I'm going to buy anything else for it. It needs to make it at least through this summer without one more thing going wrong or else I'm just going to break down and forget it. The 1st of July will be here before we know it several people said they will come I am glad I planted flowers today hopefully they live but I'm not holding my breath. I went to Kelly's today to pick up his lard to render he butchered two big pigs they dressed out at 350 pounds each and I have a sack of lard to render that is about the size of 10 pounds of sugar Maybe maybe not that big. I think something happened to his fat. I told him I wanted to pork shoulders for fleta to make pulled pork for the 1st of July I didn't look at what he gave me I got home with two cured hams I'm not sure if I should take them back and swap or count my blessings and just buy the pork shoulder cheap. I looked at his two pigs the same age as mine and actually I think they're a little bigger than mine AR so today I bought pulverize corn put it in a barrel filled it with water hopefully mine will love it. I'm supposed to go to Kenzie graduation and I have my tickets but I've just been so sick I'm not sure I'm going to go. I go to the cancer doctor Monday. Hopefully I will know more then.
