It happened in the grocery store parking lot in my little town of 608. I waited patiently for the man in the next space to unload his cart so I could get out of my truck. I offered to take the cart so he wouldn't have to return it. He said "Let me show you something" …

A few years ago I planted some freesia bulbs in the iris bed in front of the house. Only one seemed to come up so I watched as the stem and leaves formed. I looked at the tag from the package and freesia has blades, not leaves.

Spring is taunting. The sun laughs while the air is still cold. Then it rains or snows or sleets, keeping my spirit damp and musty. The wind brings warmth but chases away the sun.

Really enjoyed your writing on the mosque today. Thanks for accepting the friend request.
See you on the Vine.
SW Missouri Mule, the Great debater! Thank you for your vine and contributions. Your thoughtful and convincing arguments are appreciated.
Great comments and seeds... Keep up the good work!
Take care!— McSpocky
Thank you for adding me to your friend list. I shall do my best to make you proud.
You can figure out if I'm refering to puppies or babies.
Dang it, Mule... I have to keep cleaning soda off my monitor!
Hi.
I just read your bio. And my first instinct was correct. You are a wonderful human being.
I just do not get it, how you can be older than my parents and be so nasty. When you know we are on the same side. To me it seems like you relish in crushing people who are not as evolved as you are.
You need to think about what you do. I might be much younger, but I would never insult you like you do me over and over again. I hope it brings you joy in your life.

I do wish politics weren't so divisive. Most of us just want what's best for our country. By the time we get to be as old as we two viners are, we're fairly entrenched. My apologies, too, if I plowed through the thread like a bull elephant in a hormonal fit. I suppose given our handles we're destined to be on opposite sides of political issues. I'll be smiling at you, though! ;-)

Hello SW Missouri Mule,
Glad to be getting to know you. I love your sense of humor, and I ADORE your story of Bruno! So refreshing to laugh at silliness instead of being so serious all the time. Keep taking care. Love your near small town too. G.H. (Gail)

You have a good heart! Thanks for being my friend. We already had something in common....Missouri residents.
Glad you are here and even more glad to have met you. Albeit on the computer, but that's almost as good as in person.
Peace
