I got the strep throat last week. It wasn’t fun.
It started Sunday with a small rough patch in the back of my throat. It grew a bit by Monday afternoon and I felt a bit waterery in the head. Went to the doc. Got it confirmed.

A trooper stood on the center line. He was rotating [...]

One of Gabby’s favorite snacks is Skittles. She gets a small cup every Sunday during Sunday School at church.
Yesterday, she was in the midst of enjoying such a cup as we looked for a seat for the worship service. The wife, Teen, and the Teen’s friend squeezed into a pew that unknown to them had [...]
The Popcorn fam is lucky enough to live down the road from a massive cow pasture. About 15 to 20 smelly hamburgers roam the field. Last summer, it became a habit of mine to take Gabby in a wagon up the hill To See The Cows.
