Small Town Gossip

My other "grandma" down the street, Mrs. Harris, came to visit me a couple of days ago and wanted to know if I was still alive. I told her that I hadn't been out much because I was very sick due to pregnancy. She was so shocked and happy! She had noticed that Dee's Trooper car had been gone and thought that something was wrong. I told her that I was finally getting on my feet again. Well, today another neighbor came by and asked if i was ok.... I told her I was doing great! She said she heard that I was pregnant and she knew my due date and how far along I was!!! She did all the talking for me, basically!! Anyway, it was just funny that she already knew all the stats.
Some other news.....
One of Dee's fellow Trooper friends in Dalhart, TX got shot today during a car stop. He is fine, but the driver didn't make it. I shouldn't have watched that.....I knew Dee would find out way before I would tell him. Please pray that my husband will always be safe. I can't fathom the thought of becoming a single parent.

That is so hilarous about small towns! Ha ha! It is so sweet that they came to check on you. I'm sure they will be among the first to come see you and the baby when s/he arrives! If they can get past all of us! :)
You, Dee and the baby are always in my prayers.
Lots of Love......

You, Dee and the little guy will be the talk of the neighborhood for quite a while to come! You may as well go ahead and buy a couple of gallons of blue paint...I have a feeling you will have a little fellow running around before you know it.

Hope you make it to Abilene soon!

Love, Art

So, you think it's a boy?!
Dee's already planning on the baby becoming a biker baby....boy or girl!

It's good to have neighbors like that... One's that aren't too nosy, but are concerned. Have you ate any Olive Garden yet?
