Close Encounters

The other night--"Close Encounters of the Third Kind" was on TV. Me JIm-cole- and renae started watching it. We noticed it was made in 1977. So Renae asked why the soda cans looked funny, I explained how the pull tab worked. Then ya know grandma was living with the family on the movie. Cole asked "is that how people lived--grandma living with them?". I said, yeah alot of people have grandma and/or grandpa live with them. I told him "when grandma and grandpa get old, they will live here with us" Cole said "Where will I sleep" I told him that it prolly won't be next week and chances are that he may be grown up when mom and dad Bingman get so senile that they have to live with us. Oh and also in the movie when the aliens are coming, cole askes "did you have basements back then?"

Real life close encounters. UUuuughhh, I am working on fixing up my club house. The dogs were scratching at some floor boards, so I had jim move them. Low and behold--3 snakes. On was really big (according to Jim). So at 8:30 that night, I went to Menards and bought some Snake Away. I called my country friend, Becky, to ask if that stuff works. Welll did I mention that Becky is country? She likes snakes!!! She is like "Connie, they aren't gonna hurt you, ya want those big black snakes in your yard to keep out the bad snakes". She then explained what the bad snakes looked like. To be on the safe side, Iavoid all snakes. That didn't make me feel better. Oh and if ya wonder what Becky looks like, she dosn't look like a big, country, butch woman. She is really pretty and has a voice like a Disney princess. I talked to Cheryl later and she was able to commiserate with me.
