I'm telling you! It's dangerous out there gathering pears!!!
When
those hard pears hit you in the head they just about knock you out!! I
swear I have a bruise on the back of my right shoulder where one got me
this evening...I haven't look yet, but I KNOW that there's a bruise!!
Believe me!
Went
out early the other morning to gather up what hit the ground and still
had my glasses on (I wear contact lenses 99% of my waking hours)...pear
hits me in the face and hits my glasses. I looked around and couldn't
see out of the left lens. The lens was on the ground.
I need a
hard hat and a pair of safety glasses just to gather pears! You
know...a Kevlar vest might be needed...think I'll talk to one of the
deputies at work. Or maybe just take the Smith & Wesson out and
start target practice on those little hard devils!!!
Wednesday Bruise Update: Well I NEVER! I just knew that there'd be a bruise on my shoulder. Harumphf. No sign of being in battle with a pear tree at all! How do you like them...pears?! ;-)
