I tend to put things off, not plan ahead, generally procrastinate. I was eating breakfast this morning and silently berating myself for not buying a pumpkin yesterday for school. You gotta have a real pumpkin to play with, right? Well, Lloyd said ‘goodbye’, went out to the car to go to school, and then walked back in with a…. pumpkin! “One of our parents at school gave this to me.” What a miracle! (The photo is a re-enactment of said ‘miracle’, not the real miracle itself.)
Lloyd here: It was actually one of my students who gave it to me. He and his brother have grown pumpkins to sell in front of their Grandfather’s store on the Seward courthouse square.
Lauren here: So this pumpkin didn’t sell? They’re giving me cast-off pumpkins? What’s up with that?
Lloyd here: Lauren sucks.
Deanne says
I love it when my husband saves me!
Say, what is that book on your table?
Brad says
Speaking of pumpkins, I seem to keep bumping into this video when I’m online…

Annette says
That’s just plain awful.
Peggy says
I was loving the video … until the sad, evil part. Satan.
Lauren's dad says
Speaking of “sucks,” has anyone thought of making a pumpking milkshake? Or, a pumpking sundae?
Lauren says
I get it -- pump king. Ha. A ‘pumpkin’ milkshake sounds like some sort of torture drink. I’d give up government secrets if I had to drink pumpkin. I don’t like the pie, either.
Lauren says
Hey! I didn’t see Lloyd’s final update. Hmmph. You gonna let him talk to me like that, Dad?
Kristi says
Petersburg, Nebraska, is hosting their Punkin’-Chunkin’ event on Sunday afternoon. http://www.ci.petersburg.ne.us/punkin_chunkin.htm Lauren, can you build a pumkin launcher????
Lauren says
It’s construction should be exceedingly simple…
Peggy says
BTW: Lloyd you’re alright! What a lovely orange/green pumpkin!
