Fridays I like to post something that will put a smile on your face... if it's been a hard week, we need it! Yesterday when I was "moving furniture on the blog" I mean changing color schemes, I saw this on Link Within at the bottom of a post. Posted last year, I'd forgotten this and it's a GOOD ONE!!! So read on and enjoy... Have a great weekend and keep your door closed if you have "yard cows!
Sometimes a story escapes me. It could be a busy morning and I just didn't have the time to read the paper. If it doesn't get read with my coffee, out it goes to the recycling bin. I get my news on tv and the Internet so what could I possibly miss? Yesterday when I was Googling for Arkansas roads...don't ask... this story comes out of Texas, The Denton Record Chronicle to be exact. That's where my daughter Amy lives, she must have missed it too... I'm sure she would have mentioned it! After all it's an Arkansas news story. It seems the cows in the picture above decided to raid a home in Murfreesboro, Arkansas. When Latisha Francis came home she found the three in her farmhouse. From the looks of the one sprawled out in the picture, they had a big ol' party! I don't think I've ever seen a cow lay that way, maybe a frog but definitely not a cow!
Francis knew right away something was amiss when she drove up and one of the cows was looking out the front door. That one walked out on it's own, but the other two had a hard time navigating the laminate wood floors and had layed down and given up! Can you imagine coming home from a hard day at work. Maybe the boss had been grouchy or that mean lady in accounting had circled your mistakes with her red pencil... then when you finally get home, you have to get cows out before you can even set down and watch the news. Hey, you ARE the news! Check the link out and read this, there's no way I could ever make something this good up...
Oh my gosh - that would be quick a shock - so funny - as long as it wasn't you! sandie
ReplyDeleteTRUE! Can you imagine driving in and seeing them in the doorway?
DeleteOMG... and I don't think that cow is in good shape,the one splayed out like that. It isn't natural.
ReplyDeleteI thought the same thing Karen but the article didn't say anything about the cows being hurt so I guess they were ok.
Deletehaha I have had them in the yard and one even broke off a small tree but never the house. Luckily the can't get up to the porch. And what a weird position that on is in. I am showing Stuart when he gets home. I bet he has never had one do that!
ReplyDeleteWould love to hear what your husband had to say about the "froggy pose" that cow was in...
DeleteI would have never dreamed cows would do this....oh my gosh!
ReplyDeleteMy first thought was WHO leaves a door open in the first place so cows could come in!
DeleteWell, this story sure beats out a lot of others! How fascinating. Maybe they thought they were running into a barn. The one layed out on the ground doesn't look right to me. Cows don't do that. Boy, what a mess that must have been to clean up. Ha! Can you imagine driving up to your house and being greeted by a cow at your door?!
ReplyDeleteRight! None of this makes much sense, you'd think the cows would be too afraid to go in a house!
Deletegood lord!!! that would be a mess!
ReplyDeleteCan you imagine having to clean up after cows have been in your house? Next time... leave the doors closed!
DeleteI just saw a story where a BEAR came into some people's house! SCARY. SHUT THE DOOR...WERE YOU BORN IN A BARN? omg, I'm too funny!
ReplyDeleteCheryl
Absolutely, must be a safe area to be able to leave doors OPEN! Hey, what about SNAKES???
DeleteOH.MY! I hope they were her cows... I'd hate to be that angry with my neighbors. LOL!
ReplyDeleteI can just imagine the conversation... "Margie, I hate to complain but your cows were over here today and they sure made a mess in our bedroom..."
DeleteJoycee
ReplyDeleteYou always come up with the most unusual photos and stories. That's one of the reasons I love your blog
I'm still laughing!!
Thanks sweetie! My eye is drawn to stories like this, too good not to share!
DeleteOh for heavens sake, I would just die if I came home to that. What a mess and probable smell too. OK I will stop complaining about a little dog hair and count my blessings.
ReplyDeleteWe shouldn't complain about a little dog hair, then again I don't think I will ever have to face coming home to cows in my house... please Lord!
DeleteOh my!!!!!! I would have a fit if there was a cow in my house. Geez. I've been around cattle all of my life and have NEVER sees one sprawled out like that.
ReplyDeleteThis post may have been too disturbing, so many of us hope the cow survived. The link to the article didn't say the cows were hurt though. If you've ever been around cows you just know that's not "normal."
DeleteThat is an OHHH MY GOSH - for sure!!
ReplyDeleteI do hope that cow is/was alive. Must have been a really hot day for her to be sprawled out with her utters in the mud!! And the one in the house---- HOLY COW!!
The article didn't say the cows were hurt, but I agree... I didn't know a cow could do this position!
