If you know me you know I'm a high level A personiality with a little OCD mixed in. Okay, if I want to know something I will ask.... after all my motto "Ask not, get not"
When I was 18 years old, married and living in a house rent free that
my Granddaddy owned I butted my nose into his business. Instead of
getting mad... which he did a lot... he sat me down and said, "Patty Jean,
it's time you learn that if you ask people personal questions that if they had
wanted you to know they would have told you without asking and if you ask them
when they don't want you to know they will lie to you."
I smiled at
him and he smiled back. I got up and hugged him goodbye and walked about
ten feet away. I turned and said so you’re saying you don't want me to
know... so that means I've got to do some digging. That is when he got
mad. Yelled at me to get home and mind my own business. I lived
next door. hehehehe He stayed mad about a day but I knew he couldn't stay
mad long because he loved Missy so much and if he got to see her he had to see
me.
Yes I got my answer to my question but it was his business.... but I just
had to know.

And a Dog
The world looks better from the back of a horse and the roads of life are easier with a good dog beside you.

Sometimes it just the not knowing that drives you crazy.
