NaBloPoMo Day 10: You Know You Ain't in the City No More When...
* You wear your really cute Steve Madden shoes to pick up a parcel at the General Store and you end up getting them all mucky because there's nothing but mud here after it rains.
* You realize that other drivers on the road are waving and honking their horns at you because they're offering a friendly "hello"/acknowledgement and not because they are mad at you for driving the speed limit.
* You walk out to your "lane" (also known as a really long "driveway") and get startled by six deer scampering away across your fields.
* You wake up in the morning with a cow looking into your bedroom window.
* You dress to the nines to meet a girlfriend for coffee, only to be greeted with a "BWAHAHAHAHAHA! OMG, Chris! Your hair is all done, you're wearing a gorgeous outfit...but you're wearing your big, honkin' $h!t kickers!!!!"
"My what???"
"$h!t kickers!"
"I don't think we're speaking the same language. What are you talking about?"
"You're all gorgeous and dolled up, but you're wearing your big, 'ol barn boots! Your $h!t kickers!"
Yes, life in a small rural community certainly keeps me entertained! :) Makes for some really great blog fodder too! Love it!

City girl moves to the country, falls in love, and marries a farmer. She tries to incorporate her city ways with her new country lifestyle and blogs to keep in touch with friends, family & students who live far, far away :) Can this city girl go country? Watch as she learns all sorts of exciting things about life on the farm and in a small rural community. *UPDATE* We are now parents! Our baby girl was born on Nov. 11, 2008 (at 28 weeks gestation- 12 weeks premature, but she's quite the trooper)!!!

abbes
Taylor Lautner has very defined abbes.
lol. I can relate. When I was expecting Ellen I remember getting ready for a Dr. visit:
Change chore pants: check
Makeup: check
Hair: check
Good shoes: check
etc..etc...
It wasn't until I was sitting on the exam table that I realized I'd forgotten to change my chore shirt. It was fairly clean, but was faded and had bleached spots on it from the barn. Cute.
Yep, lots to blog about in the coutnry.
