Happy Mother's Day everyone!

Happy mother's day
the most important day of the year
You don't realize how much your mother's did for you until you see your wife raising your kids.

I'm sure FirstClassFlyer will find something to criticize on my comment

Since people are generally not well-informed about what happens at Stage 2, I've been thinking it would be fun to tell them a different version of the Stage 2 rules.

1. If your last name has an odd number of letters, you can only shower on odd-numbered days of the month. If we get to Stage 3, you'll only be able to shower on the day of the month that matches the number of letters in your last name.

2. If you drink bottled or canned beverages containing water during Stage 2 restrictions, they can not be bottled or canned within the state of Texas. This helps increase the net gain of water into Texas.

3. You can only wash 1 vertical half of your car each week under Stage 2: either the driver half or the passenger half. Under Stage 3, you can only wash the bottom half and only once per month.

That's all I've come up with so far.

I have little doubt quite a few people would belive that too.

So yes, that was hot. Our regular seats are in the sun. I lasted the first two innings then we had to move to the shade. Once we got in the shade it was actually pretty pleasant.

And the Missions won - beat the Hooks 6-1.

hehe!
And to save on laundry water, you have to wear your clothes into the shower and once you've got a dryer full, you can run the dryer, though line drying is preferred since the water dripping from the clothes will help the lawn.

Stage 4: You can hand-water your lawn and beds, but this must be done with a 5ml eye dropper.
