Originally Posted By TXDISNEYNERD I am a newbie and I didn't realize at first that you weren't from Mena, but were just there helping out your BIL. I definitely feel for you being stuck there. It is very pretty, but not much to do unless you like watching grass grow.

I have had to spend most of my time in Mena as Little Rock is 3+ hours away. We had to take my grand-nephew to Hot Springs to have the Frankenstein bolts taken out of his broken arm yesterday. Then we went on in to see Butch. We spent enough time on the road to have gone from our house to Disneyland. Surgery is scheduled for 7AM tomorrow (Wed.). If we plan to be there before they take him we will be driving in the wee hours. Even though I know better I let myself be talked out of renting a car. I was supposed to have my sister's but she drove it to Little Rock; so I am truly stranded. I know you two know how sweet my mom is but she is driving me NUTS!!!!!! We were in the middle of Green Acres today and she just picked up the remote and shut it off. When I looked at her she said, "I don't want to see the rest of that, it's too silly."
