I met with a little ol lady (maybe in her 80's)this morning that has quite a big surveying job she needs done in a short period of time.

She has been in the ranching business for her whole life and I guess she has seen and heard it all.

I won't go into details about this job, but I guess I starting whining a little bit about the time frame she was demanding and then she told me with a straight face. "Put your big girl panties on and get over it."

We both broke out in a good laugh and I promised her that it would get done on time.

Who can argue with that?

That's when you look her dead in the eye and say
"You can't do business out of an empty wagon" and see if she cackles then too.

I love old crotchety people. They make me smile.

It's all good until she offers to show you what she's talking about.

Lordy, I love gutsy old folks like her. What you gonna do, report her to her parents?

BTW, I'm being nice and not mentioning why the spelling police are doing flipflops.
