I have always wanted to be recognized publicly for being a responsible person, and it finally happened. Last week when the rodeo came to town, the director of the event wanted me to oversee and maintain some of the animals. He incorrectly assumed that I had experience in that area even though I didn’t have any. In the past, I have tended a few friend’s children, and even house sat, but I was beaming with pride when he said in front of a large group of people that he specifically wanted me, because of my reputation as a bull sitter.
