Elly May Duke

hmm. i don't think anybody in my family does but my mom's dad has diabetes and all his brothers so me and my mom and probably my brother are all at risk for it. tho we don't have it as far as we know thankfully

Daisy: Oh Enos . . .Bo had a wreck and he hurt and . . .now the doctor doesn't think he's all right Uncle Jesse: What? Luke: You didn't watch the race? Jesse: I did but *shakes head* Daisy: Well they don't think he's all right Uncle Jesse

okay that would be fun. just let me know where and when. so fun. your ex boy and my ex friend lol

wow . . .what's with your grandma? Good you take care of her tho we used to have youth on sunday nights but now there's only me and another boy so we don't do it. i miss it tho.

Daisy: I am too Enos. You have no idea how much I missed you sugar. Luke: Uncle Jesse this is Jed and Elly May Clampett Jethro Bodine and Granny. Daisy: . . .Uncle Jesse . . .Bo . . .he *burys head in Enos's shoulder*

I know. and another time they stole the copper outta the airconditioner. i have only been there once since we stoped going because my dad's singing group sang there. i sing one song with him Me and God - Josh Turner. But it creeped me out being there. it's home to me . . .or is it. i always considered it home but now i consider our church we been to for like four years home so now i'm confused. my mom won't join because of the other church and i'm with her. it feels like home too much even if it pains me . . .old country church been there since like 1940's or somethin

Daisy: Uncle Jesse! Enos! *wraps her arms around Enos laying her head on his shoulder*

Yeah a little here too. Once we had this gang that came and destroyed the church cross from my house. we don't go there anymore cause the ppl there fought a lot but we used to. they busted the windows and stole stuff

Daisy: Oh Luke what are we gonna do?

Think you could write that script for me?

but true i mean like he says you'll get mugged if you go downtown

Doctor: No. We'll have to ask you to leave for a few minutes so i can call in a couple associates.

i woulda sent Miranda on him with her shotgun and kerosene jug or Granny they'd take care of him

How so? I do love that song and it's so true. only a country boy truely knows how to live off the land and stuff. . . and like the line where he talks bout his friend who just calls him hillbilly.

Doctor: Well let's see son *checks his pulse and stuff* hmm. something's not right. Might have an infection

That is terrible. tho i have to admitt myself that goth kids scare me a bit too. i mean that is wrong what he did . . .tho honestly see that's a thing about me. i know that evrybody (maybe not exactly but people round me) say that it doesn't matter about like what kinda music or stuff like that but it does. I mean i would never date someone who hated country or Dukes or stuff like that and i don't kow bout you but they ain't old nuff to be our grandparents (okay maybe i don't know how old they are, but certainly not enough to be our greatgrandparents)

Daisy: I reckon not *wipes eyes* I really am sorry about the way we're actin Jed: Don't need to apologize Daisy. *Just then one of the doctors comes in*

I know. i mean think of all those ones . . .girls specially but even guys even if they go camping they think it's gross. for us that's a way of life. I mean maybe i'm being biased here but i don't see how anbody could call a cityboy a real man. I mean unlike them countryboys will do anything for their kinfolk specially girls. I mean again kinda biased but seems to me that those of us in the south are smarter than they are. they may have better school systems and stuff but what's that if you can't live off the land?

Bo: Daisy. When is Uncle Jesse getting here? I can't face him . . .not after i wrecked the General. Can't let him see me like this. Daisy: *stares as a couple tears start falling* Luke: I'm real sorry bout this y'all. You'll have to forgive us. I haven't slept well last night and I don't think Daisy did either

I used to have this friend named CJ and my mom started baby sitin him when i was two been friends ever since. course now that he's old enough to stay home she doesn't. He used to be the one along with my brother who told me not to listen to anything but country (my brother did too) course now he listens to rap and rock. wish i had the old him back cause if it werent' for the fact that i ain't sure my dad would go for it and we were like bro and sis i'd date him. he is your perfect backwoods boy. and one his hunting dogs is a puppy from like the first dog we had which is dead now( our dog. course the puppy could be now. she old)

Luke: I don't know. sometime today i reckon. Just calm down Daisy

Yeah. I wouldn't want to be or live anyother way, but i do wish that a lot of other people wouldn't make fun of us if you know what i mean . . .specially the north. i mean if it wasn't for us they wouldn't be eating. it's us poorly paid farmers who feed them

Daisy: You sure sugar? you look terrible.

Good reason. are you and your cousin close in a sisterish kind of way? just askin cause you seem to mention her a lot. wish i had a girl cousin. only boys and they all moved away. i have one girl actually but she's married and has twins. tho she helped me with my Latin

Our town's not that small tho you could walk to the elementry school from my house
