Bad Boys, Bad Boys, What You Gonna Do.......

Whoa!
This happened Tuesday May 24 less than a mile from my house.

Ellis County
2 suspected burglars shot inside home

An Ellis County man shot two burglary suspects in his son's
house in the 2800 block of FM85 near Ennis
shortly after noon Tuesday, officials said.
One of the suspects was dead at the scene
and the other was in surgery hours later at a Dallas hospital.
His condition was unavailable.

Ellis County Sheriff's Department spokesman Lt. James Saulter
said a neighbor saw the two men knock on the front door
of the single-family home, then drive around back.
Suspicious, the neighbor called the homeowner's
father, who lives next door to his son and was on his way home.

The homeowner's father, who Saulter said has a concealed handgun license,
confronted the two men inside his son's home, where they were in the process
of carrying some of his son's guns toward the back door.

The homeowner's father called 911 after the shooting.

Saulter did not identify any of the men involved in the incident, pending
notification of next of kin.

This happens all too often in our neck of the woods,
it's remote and criminals know you're most likely at work.
I've been burgled at two different residences and let me tell you, it feels awful!

We do have the Castle Law but...

I don't know about killing someone over possessions.
Then again, I wasn't there, maybe the criminals had their own guns!
These Texans do seem to love their guns.
What would you do?

Till next time,

The Witch is Back

YEAH, IT'S FRIDAY!!!!!!!

No work today, well not for someone else anyway.
Today will be spent getting everything packed for tomorrow's show, taking care of the last minute details & GETTING MY HAIR DONE!
I haven't had my hair done since last year about this time. I've been growing said hair out & now it's time for a trim & much needed style with some color thrown in for good measure.
Oh, that pesky gray! I'm too young for gray!  
I am sooo looking forward to someone else brushing, washing & generally fiddling with my hair!
I am so excited, a whole new me, well on the outside anyway.

I thought I might dress differently for this show since I'll have a NEW DO. It is very close to Halloween, so
maybe some kind of costume is in order?
I have the really cool witch hat, a black skirt with a pointy hem, some black lace gloves, a black fringed shawl, a black scrunchy blouse, the snake necklace....
OK, witch it is!


THE REALLY COOL WITCH  HAT

The full moon is making me crazy!!
What do you think, should I dress up?
This show(Texas Country Reporter) generates a lot of press, maybe I'll be featured on the nightly news or in some newspaper! One can always dream.

Got to go & get my new DO.
WOO, WOO

Till next time.....
