Everyone knows women don't really think proper thoughts but just have emotions and worries.

It's natural for you to worry. Have you been beaten recently? This may be why you are worrying and troubling your elders.

Re: Daughter asked if she "mows the lawn"

Y'mean like if yer car pet is blue, then thuh curr tens should be blue too, right?

Only if that is pleasing to your husband. Some husbands my prefer your rugs and curtains/drapes to differ and that is a matter for them in their own household. Some may even prefer the floor to be bare of a rug and that is also a matter for them.

Re: Daughter asked if she "mows the lawn"

Are you sure? My Mawmy says when I get married, my house and my lawn will belong to my husband, juss' like Jeevus said.

Well obviously! It will be your duty to tend your lawn in a way that pleases your husband. You will be one flesh.

Matthew 19:16 Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

Your husband will guide you in this when the time is right. You are once again allowing yourself to be troubled with girlish thoughts and should follow your parents. You have a good mother.

Mark 7:10 For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, Whoso curseth father or mother, let him die the death:

We don't want you to die, child. All this thinking is bad for you.

Don't be overly worried about lawn ownership. It's much more important to make sure your rug matches the drapes.

Re: Daughter asked if she "mows the lawn"

I don't understand.

Caring for the gardens of the Lord and keeping them tidy and not straggly and unkempt is God's work, child. One day you will have a lawn of your own and then you will understand the need to keep it well tended, fragrant and fertile.

Sometimes we have a contest to see who brought the biggest bottle rocket.

The coach won that one. And then he got his foot stuck in one of the holes....

Good times.

Re: Daughter asked if she "mows the lawn"

I was in town and came across him, such a nice young man. I asked him if he was still interested, and he said yes. I warned him that we've kind of let things go, so it's really grown all over the place, and there seems to be a hive of bugs in there someplace. Also, on the 4th of July we had a party that went out of hand, the ex-negro basketball team ended up camping out in both the front and back, and they really left the place a mess.

I asked him what time he'd be coming, but suddenly he had other priorities.

It sounds like you had quite the holiday weekend. Independence Day parties are my favorite. They always seem to last longer than planned. It's especially fun when people bring their own fireworks. Sometimes we have a contest to see who brought the biggest bottle rocket.

Re: Daughter asked if she "mows the lawn"

I will be attending a Bar Association meeting in Alcoy this fall. I'd like very much to see your lawn. Perhaps it will need a bit of trimming and I'd certainly appreciate that opportunity.

OK, is very tedious job, so I prefer that somebody else do it for me. Thanks!
