Our Old Out House is only a one holer. Our family of five, has to stand in line and sometimes this just don’t work, I really hate it when cousin Jake come to visit. When he uses the old out house, he always takes his Guitar out there with him, It only has three strings on it and they have never been tuned, The worst part is, when he plays it he sings, sorry, I mean he tries to sing. All the animals run when he plays and then we have to go looking for them. Sometimes the animals go as far as the next county. Uncle Ed said: that he was going to step on the guitar and if it was still playable, he was going stomp on it until it was dead.
People that live there, complain and then the Sheriff comes to see us. He give us a warning and says the next time, they will butcher the cows and chickens and sell the other animals for what ever they can get. If that don’t work, he always has a jail cell open.
But, if you want to know, Country life is a lot better than living in a town. We may not have running water but we do have a running creek close by, Kerosene for our lanterns is affordable and we never did like real bright lights. I wish the old wood pile was closer so we didn’t have to go out in the cold. I always try to fill the wood box in the day time so
I don’t have to go after wood in the dark.
We don't pay ant taxes and it is probably becaue they don't know that we are here. We don’t have a car, but that’s okay, the smell of gasoline makes me sick. We are all use to the smell of manure and that helps the vegetables to grow in the garden. If only the old out house had two holes, but that wouldn’t help much. We only use it, one of us at a time. Of course when Momma takes one of the little ones out there, they can both set.
Have you noticed, the only time you really have to go out there, it’s always at night. I for one, can never find a match to light the lantern and when I do, it is almost too late. We keep a candle out in the little house but we don’t keep any matches out there. Not since Aunt Nelly burnt the old out house down. If we would have had some wieners or marshmallows, we could have had a roast.
The city may have more pretty girls, but they fall short of meeting my expectations, I’ll stick with the country girls.
When you say your prayers at night remember to include me. And try to be honest when you make out your income tax forms this year, in fact if you can, give a littler extra. There are a lot of aliens depending on you for food and housing. If you don’t do it, Oboma will.
I have a question and maybe you should think about it before answering! Why don’t we get someone from another country, maybe from Russia, or Albania or the outer rim, to run for the office of President? Things sure couldn’t get any worse.
