Thursday
She milked the cows 'n fed them hay,
Slopped the hawgs 'fore the break uv day,
Carried sum watah frum the well,
Built a fire, then rang the bell.
Cooked the brekfus, set the table
'n let the horse out uv the stable.
Got the chillun off to school,
Picked the squash whilst it wuz cool.
Helped Paw change a wagon tire,
Fed the chickens 'n dressed a fryer.
Hoed the gardun, made the bed,
Mixed 3 pies then baked sum bread.
Shelled the peas 'n fixed the lunch
Strung the shuck beans, bunch by bunch
Fed the baby 'n churned the buttah,
Swept the floor then cleaned the gutter.
Washed the clothes, filled the lamps wid oil;
Canned sum peaches she thought mite spoil.
Gathered aigs, milked the cow agin,
Completely filled the stove wood bin.
Cooked the supper fur Paw 'n us kids,
Washed the dishes, the pans 'n lids.
Fed the dogs, wiped the baby's nose,
Sat by the fire 'n mended clothes.
Read the good book, got all to bed,
'n everyday this life she led,
But before she slept, she wud always say,
"Oh, hasn't this bin a happy day!"
Don't buy lipstick that doesn't have a plastic safety seal over it. If you can open the cap and put your finger on the product, someone else might have done the same!
