The rest of the day I was doing my farm chores and she was tagging along behind me like a child. She had on my big cowboy hat and was loving the air and the sun and being outside. Around 5 everyone was knocking off and leaving and as usual i was setting the traps for intruders.
Imo: what that?
Me: An arrow
She looked at it as I set it up.
Imo: Why the traps?
I turned looked at her.
Me: what you know about traps
Imo: I read a book that had this hunter who hated people set up traps for unwanted guest.
Me: well am doing the same
Imo: oh.
I finished up and we drove home to the house.all her boxes where by the porch. She looked at it than got in taking off her boots.
Me: why do you take off your shoes?
Imo: I love how cold your floor is.
Me: you might get flu
Imo: I never get flu
