I thought I could get my scanner to work on the laptop..it probably would except it bit the dust..now have to find me a printer/scanner that will work and work on my laptop. So? No pictures..feck.
West got 5.5 inches of rain over the weekend of 9th and 10th..and we've had rain damn near every day since..maybe only for 20-30 minutes but when the ground is already saturated it doesn't take much to flood the rivers and creeks and gully's..We got 1.3 inches Saturday and 4.20 inches Sunday..I am starting to grow webs between my toes and quack softly several times a day.
Softly? Yeah, maybe not softly..maybe loud and annoying..
I have decided that I am still going to do Monday and Friday memes..but not as many(90 is a lot.) and start doing what I used to do..what my blog was supposed to be..a little about West, a little about politics, a little about what I think of the assholes of the world and looking for good in all the right places..and of course...the GG's..my beautiful smart granddaughters and beautiful smart and really funny great granddaughters..life is fucking good.
so here goes...

The annual fireworks show is planned for later that evening.
A dunking booth is planned beginning at 11 a.m. at the West KC grounds and this year the group[s are accepting votes for people who will sit in the dunk tank at a dollar a vote.

Kamrynn Schiller gets a track scholarship to Tarleton State in Stephenville. We have such talented kids here.
More proof of that is Ethan Blocker signs with McMurry University in Abilene to play football.
Braxton James Polansky was welcomed into the world on March 17 at 2:01 p.m. weighing in at 8 pounds 11 ounces. Welcome to the world sweet boy.
It's weird, but 50 years ago the same weekend of our big rain fall, West got 6.50 inches of rain..but it was over an 8 day period..
If the fast pace of West activities don't lure you in, how about these deals. 3 bd-room, 1 bath, old fashioned front porch, hardwood floors, large updated bath, CH/A large pecan trees. $79,000.
Price reduced on white stone 3/3/3 home with nice 2400 square foot shop, custom in-ground pool, privacy fence, large covered back patio, roughed-in for outdoor kitchen all on 1.09+/acres. $250,000. I'd like to buy this..if I had the money I would..
well that's most of the West news..Jackie news is on going..Anissa, Sarah and Marissa Adamson are kidnapping me and taking me for Chinese and then a pedicure..they are getting manicure and pedicure for Prom Week and as I don't need a manicure I'm getting my first pedicure..holyshit. Ain't that cool?
My 3-4 second cameo in Long Term Parking is premiering this Saturday at 8 p.m. in Houston Texas at the Comicpalooza. I'd love to go but don't trust the truck to drive that far even with new brakes and clutch. Was hoping I could get the family to all go but it's hard to coordinate anything like that with school, work and life. None of which I have to worry about, but they all do. There is talk of a sequel and if there is I'm going to badger Paul Bright to give me a real part..like a drunk at the bar..I can do that. Or just a sober Jackiesue telling the world that I haven't smoked in 43 years, haven't drank in 23 years and haven't had sex in 30 years so if you see me smoking and drinking you know I just got laid. I could do that on screen.
well that's all the news worth printing..but I'll be back..Paper comes out to day plus will have exciting news about my pedicure. later gaters.

I love West news and have missed it.
I hope they make you the central character of "Long Term Parking Two!" You could carry a movie, easy.
The West sounds pretty soggy, but it's better than the other way.
Best the annual fireworks thing is a blast!
Hope your computer woes get solved quickly.
Oh Jackie!!! These posts are my favorites!!! (Even though I'm slow as balls getting here to read!)
I watch that show Fixer Upper with Chip and Joanna Gaines and it makes me want to move to Waco so bad! I saw the episode where they redid a house in West and I was looking for you in the crowd! Hahah! The houses there are so amazing, if it wasn't so frigging hot there, I'd go!
I could use a pedicure, only I hate people touching my feet. It is flip flop season though so I gotta do something with these Fred Flintstone toes!
