Helena struck up a conversation with a teenager today - thru the porch window and across the street. The teen was at the barn to get the horses ready for a show. First off, Helena asked why one of the horses was wearing something. The conversation proceeded to where the show would be, if they had to drive or fly in an airplane, if the horses had to go on a truck, the gender of the various horses and then their ages. This was all led by Helena.
Next Helena digressed, from age, to when the eldest horse, Harvey, might die telling this poor teen that it would be ok if Harvey died and then how Bunny boy died and how the chickies got eaten by a fox. Mommy came running out as fast as she could lol.
No sooner was I back inside the bathroom washing out some woolens by hand (near the porch) when I heard Helena ask "Why do you have such an ugly house?" Oye!! Mommy and Daddy have commented on what an overgrown ugly monstrosity the house across the street is a few times. Fortunately, this girl didn't live there and fortunately she thought Helena was referring to the barn.
