Booga Booga....i'm human.
There have been times in life that when plans changed I didn't go with the punches very well and would get irritated with not getting my way at the time. You know what I mean?
When I can go with the flow and enjoy the direction life is going....I'm less agitated.
Tuesday was a different kind of day for me. Daughter stayed home from work due to running a fever and head cold. Lil Miss has a stuffed up nose and head cold as well and I'm praying I stay well. The last cold I had was just in July with one in April. Not a good record.
Wanted to watch ABC television and listen to Jackie Kennedy's recordings she made shortly after her Husband, President Kennedy died. We don't get ABC here at Home Haven, so I will either wait till the Public Library has the recordings to check out or buy a copy for my personal Library.
BOOGA BOOGA
BOOGA BOOGA
Instead of getting disappointed, we watched the 1998 movie HOPE FLOATS and ate homemade cookie dough. Oatmeal with raisins. It was a slowed paced evening and I loved it.
A nice way to unwind after the morning we had.
Earlier in the day around 10:30, my daughter said she heard train noises that didn't sound right. She had looked outside and said she saw cars going QUICKLY backwards down the street. Then there was yellow Police Tape across the street. A train was stopped on the tracks. I looked out the window and saw two of the older neighborhood ladies standing outside looking toward the tracks along with another lady that's remodeling a neighborhood house for a new Pastor coming to town.
A train hit a semi-trailer truck high centered and stuck on the railroad tracks not far from my home. Took some pics. No one was killed or physically injured. Thankful to God. The train stayed on the tracks. No derailing.
Excitement in small town America!
I took an afternoon nap. Needed it.
Booga Booga,

Hi Deanna
Just found you blog on link at the Thrifty Home. What a fun blog you have, I'll be looking around.
I live in OK, am almost the same age as you and also stay busy during the day with grands. But my house is a little newer than yours :) Not sure if that is a good thing though.
Bless you and have a great day
Goodness! It's amazing that no one was seriously hurt or died in that train wreck. It look horrible! Hope you have a wonderful go with the flow rest of the week.
Thank goodness no one was killed. What a devastating thing to happen.
WOW! That is intense! Definitely small town America excitement. Glad all was well and no one injured or killed.
Love you guys! Always enjoy hearing from you.
Hi Rhonda. Nice to meet you! God bless.
Martha, I hope we do have a great week. You as well.
Love of Cottage, I am thankful no one was injured or killed and that the train stayed on the tracks. It was a sight to see.
Fam Man, You take care! It was intense. Nap helped.
God bless,

Weren't Jack and Jackie a lovely looking couple? (And, boy, how long did it take to load all those pictures? The wreck was stunning. Glad nobody was hurt.)
Wowzer...! That was some crash...tore that semi right.in.half. So glad nobody was seriously hurt! My husband has the unfortunate job of hosing down tracks...he's a Lenexa Fire Fighter.
Discovered your blog thru Parisienne Farmgirl, but we're actually neighbors of sorts...at least fellow Kansans.
Enjoyed looking around your blog!
Have a great day,
valerie
Actually the making cookie dough for my girls while you watched a chick flick was a much better evening than watching Jackie.
Love baking cookies! (of course eating the dough is fun too, but I could only have a very small nibble, good though!)
All that excitement and I missed it! The pictures tell the story. You got some truly great train shots!
