Funniest memory from childhood | Blogtober '14

So when I was a little kid my dad built a hay barn on our place. It had dirt floors and it sucked when it rained. So Dad finally decided to put concrete in the floors to avoid moldy bales that were against the dirt floor. The concrete truck came to pour the concrete and then dad and a couple others were going to spread it out. I went to help my dad spread it out with the boys and I had on my dad’s mudboots. My boots got stuck in the concrete and I fell backwards on my butt in the concrete. All the guys laughed and I was embarrassed. I was only like 6 or 7 at the time. I ran to the house crying my eyes out.

Too bad I don’t have any pictures of that…

Or how about the time we were in Duncan Oklahoma at a horse show and I was trying to qualify for the AQHA World Show.  This was the last weekend to be able to qualify so I had a lot riding on this.  I went out to show and won. When I heard that I won my dad said something to me and as I went to crawl off China (my horse) I fell off. Yup, it happened.

  • GMO & Educating yourself

    Today’s prompt:  Something you read online. Leave a link and discuss, if you’d like.
