Here's my Facebook post from last week which kinda tells the story. I'm a little edgy as the roofers are here now for a fourth week:
I need someone to write a country woman's country song: Not about trucks or dogs, but about how when you re-roof, the attic snake goes to the hen house and eats your eggs, and if you relocate the snake you start to get mice in kitchen and ya gotta wash the whole kitchen down. It's too freaking hot to get the blues - and it's only 9:20 in the morning.
Comments:
(Susan J) To the Beatles' song: All you need is Love. In your case: "All you need are cats, All you need are cats.' I've got rats that now wave at me from the shrub next to the dining room. The other one was lazying on my bird feeder hook. Larry t...hinks it's one and the same. Nope, the one on the shrub had lipstick on.
(Mark S) You got them early morning snake bit blues.
(Marty A) I almost hare a songggg!!!!!! :)
(Elizabeth Z) I'll get right on it! Heck, you've practically written it, yourself! Eaten any figs lately?
(Brevard) You relocated the snake to the kitchen??? Why not Alabama or SC???? The IMPACT awards luncheon is probably looking reeeeaaalllly good now :) Miss you.
(me again) The first 4 or 5 snakes we took across the road behind the barn. Then they started getting wiser so we thought the 5th one - really big snake - we'd take down the road a bit further. Heck someone dropped a beagle off with us, we can drop ...a snake off somewhere, right? but the snake started to move out of the coop and was half in and half out - Woody grabbed the tail, I grabbed the clippers. I thought about it briefly and grabbed the tail from Woody and gave him the clippers and looked away. Eeeeewwwww looks like they filmed Halloween 2 in there instead of in the side yard! Front half of the snake crawled away. Decided it was time for a little adult beverage (or 3) sipped in the kiddie pool under the pecan trees. Found the top half of the snake in with the hose later when I went to cut it off. Just another day in the country. @Brevard - yeah, IMPACT sounds pretty low key some days!!! @Whitney - my big girl shoes are BOOTS now!
(Deb) I think you've got the beginnings of a new career
(Woody) The roofers made holes in the floor
So the attic snake went out the door
Now the mice have moved in
There's no eggs in the bin
And I can't take this heat wave no more. (with 6 "likes)
(Nadine) I can hear the tune now. Yeah, It's too freeeeekin hot to get the blues yeah, ...Oh it's only 9:20 in the am AAAAAnd It's too freeeeekin hot to get those blues oh yeah....... I think it's a hit!
(David) Hey, that sounds like a good theme for s song.
(Joe) I bet you didn't imagine you'd be dealing with such things even a few years ago.
(Patience) I can just hear it now..."Let me tell ya'll the news, It's too freaking hot to get the blues..the snake is in the henhouse and the mice are in the food..." Think Wynnona or even Loretta! hang in there Linda, its hot here too.
(Susan J) I think your dealing with a book now about life in the wilds...just sayin.
Nuff said.
