But it's not Cold!!

It's a lovely 75 degrees outside or there abouts, and Edna closes the window cause she says it's cold. OMG!! That's the way it is here in Kitale. The temperature hasn't gone above 90 yet, and yet all of the Kenyan's tell me it's so hot! Cracks me up! I tell them it's perfect outside and it's not to hot at all. I do however, realize that being so close to the equator I need to be careful outside in the sun, and so I am for the most part. lol


Today we went into town and I'm having made 2 dresses and 1 shirt. I'm going to a wedding and I need to look adorable, and the second dress is for Church. Then the shirt is just because I want one. I'm excited!!! OH and I just might wear one of the dresses to CPBC when I get back home. Once we got back home it was time for me to get to school and teach my 8th graders. Well I was a little late, but that's ok. I came in the classroom and started with the lesson. Then they had questions they wanted to ask. So I said sure ask away. These kids took exams yesterday and they had questions on some of the questions on the exam. They asked me about some vocabulary words, "seldom, harbor, debit, and a few others."  Well I went over each word with them and then they had to use them in a sentence. I tell ya, these are great kids. I just love them!! After school I headed home pretty quick. I wanted to get some stuff done, but I got derailed.


I was in the sitting room and I looked outside. What did I see you ask? Well I saw a 2 calves in the yard and I thought it was supposed to be in the pasture. Well boy was I wrong.  Edna had to call the cattle guy to come and get the calf away from it's mother because she's a milk cow. Then I was trying to round up the other calf to get put in it's large pen. Well I guess me and cattle don't get along cause I sure as heck couldn't get that calf into the right place.  It ended up first in a field where a bull was (big mistake) then the calf got into the pasture with the sheep. After that I gave up on trying to get it back to where it belonged. What can I say, I'm a city girl. DARN!!! These 2 calves are so darn cute! I named them Buster and Bruiser. LOL  Yes, I name the animals that I like. I haven't decided what I'm going to call the bull.  Maybe Rider, as in Bull Rider cause I bet no one has ever ridden that bugger!!  I wonder if Brendan Clark would give it a try? LOL
