pffft.

i just let her muck around with the fiddly bits while i did manwork.









(like right now, when she's fiddling with that rolling pin, and my manwork is tucking tail and headin' for the grampian hills!) :laughing:



Wait...Fiddly bits? But, I thought you all liked it when we concentrated on the fiddly bits blushing

too late.

i used duct tape, and a dope slap.


Quit taking all the credit. If I hadn't used the 3 paperclips and the Superglue first, the duct tape wouldn't have held

Hook one, pearl two is knitting.

Everyone knows, crochet is much, much tougher than knitting.

Honestly, wise people fear crocheters

Crochet huh?

Risk life limb and the pursuit of happiness racing through trees, brush, rocks and badger holes as fast as that horse can go, just to get a loop on the little bugger.

Bail off and finally get the kickin little sun of a beach on the ground. His mother is running up behind me, makin that fool azzed horse think about heading to the barn at a high rate of speed, while she does her best to tromp my backside into a mud hole.



And I'm gonna crochet... his legs together... huh

I swear, Wyatt Earp..He crocheted his way through the OK Corral

Lol I mean I make her panties wet



Yes, dear. I understand. We did that back in my day too

When we weren't running from dinosaurs, that is


It was difficult to run from the dinosaurs and keep them wet fig leaves in place...i don't miss those days


And, the animal skins...sigh...the dry cleaning bills!



Lmao..right! "Just soak it in some tea leaves, and it'll come out"...There was never a rock hard enough to scrub those stains with....#earlypeopleprobs


Then, the environmentalist would complain about the tannins in the tea leaves anyway. Remember the "No Tannin Zones" along the river...#earlypeopleprobs

Oh yes, calf roping I get and know. Knew the first line actually but decided to go into my own thoughts for it tonight :angel:

You would be surprised how strong those are because to look at them you wouldn't think so.

As for the mother cows, yea know that too.
Had a calf get it's head stuck in a wooden gate once.
Had my foot trying to get him to go down with his head to free him.
I actually had the entire herd come at me because the calf was bawling so loud.
Good thing I was on the other side of the gate that day or I would have been toast..:laughing:


And, through these stories, I developed a respect for cows surprised

I always tell this story, many years ago, a former boyfriend of mine took me on a trip to Vermont. Now, understand, to me Vermont is rural...the real "country"

We were driving down a road when I spotted a bunch of animals in a field in the distance.

"Oh, look, Dalmatians!" I said

They were Holstein cowslaugh

That is how much of a city girl I am

Well, see I have always had a thing for cowboys. pitchfork

laugh Ummm yea well....


Looking and a guy named Carbon...er...uhm...roped me in on another site

happy

Try an git her to tell ya about piggin strings, mud holes and water coolers some day....


Ask about three wraps an a whooie at yer own risk. :angel:


Awh...let me see if I can rememeber

The cowboy somehow or other gets a calf on it's back. This is hard to do because the mother cow's want to stomp anyone near their babies into a mudhole. Plus, calves are bigger and tougher than they look

Then, the cowboy ties up three of the calf's legs, and throws his hand in the air...like all those pictures you've seen

They tie up the three legs with the piggin string. Lookin, forgive my description, but the piggin string sounds sort of like a slipknot used in crochet, but much bigger rope, and more wraps

I admit, I forget what the water cooler isembarassed

And, I used to be Boston's Cowboy Expert...My, how the mighty have fallentears

Yes.

I guess, if you live enough of life, you get a little cynical

But, I am betting that those that don't become a little cynical, don't last as long as us happy

Do you think I dare tell em the politically incorrect term for those strap on 'bumps' behind the saddle horn? pitchfork


laugh

You know, I didn't even notice they were strap ons until you said something surprised

Yea, you think they would even care huh :laughing:


See?

This is how a woman born and bread in Boston got interested in cowboys in the first place

laugh

Darn! It didn't quote correctly

Hold on! Wait a minute...Squaw?

The saddle, a tool of the trade
Decorated details etched in the leather
The smooth saddle works just as well
The smell of the leather
Mixed with the smell of the horse
Sitting cinched upon the horse
Waiting for the rider to find their place
The rider eases into place
The horse steadies under the extra weight
Leather creaks as you settle in the seat
Your foot slips into the stirrup
Your had draws up the reign
Adventure or work it's all the same
To sit in the saddle again
Oh yes, one day




Do you think I dare tell em the politically incorrect term for those strap on 'bumps' behind the saddle horn? pitchfork


Oh, do tell...do tell
