Bless Your Heart

Living out loud in the Carolinas



I recently took Jon on a little tour of the tiny town where I grew up. One of the funniest things we saw was this store. We loved the name of it…Tha Store. Not The Store. Tha. Love it! Oh, and behind Tha Store is a fenced in area with a horse and a goat. A mini goat- I’m dying for one. I think he’d be a great help keeping the lawn under control. Speaking of livestock, while driving down one of the country roads we saw a fenced in area with lots of cows and deer. I thought it was amazing those deer weren’t scared of the cows, just grazing along next to them, in the middle of the day! You usually see deer at dusk, but not at 2pm! As we got closer I pointed out the amazing deer and asked could he believe such a sight. He said “Yeah, because those aren’t deer, they’re goats!” I thought they were just teeny dear, and I grew up in the country. So ashamed.

We saw my old house, and school, and playground. My old school used to hold K-12 in one school when I attended, now there is an elementary, primary, middle, and high school. I felt so old telling the story…”back in my day we didn’t have these newfangled schools….” Posted by Hello

    That is so nice you went back to your old stomping grounds. My husband and I did this months ago, with my old hometown.
