Oh deary, I do not STAY UP wondering, I just wake up & lie here wondering.

Then I look at the opposite: If I had no chickens, what would I be doing ?????????????????????????????????

No reason to even get out of bed...no extra income, no WORK which to me is exercise............no joy.

I agree, a good cry with the dogs !

You are a dog whisperer !

Electric fence, and she has a Corgi that is adorable, but I bet true to her breeding will be ferocius if called upon.

My oldest is moving home. He called us the beginning of the week and says he needs mom's structure and discipline or he knows he will not graduate high school.

That is HUGE! WOW!

For your son to humble himself like that speaks volumes.

That he realizes what you brought to his life is a HUGE CREDIT to you!

What a blessing!

Also, looks like I DID request the time off...so I am on for Monroe. Trying to get ahold of my cousin in Duval to see if I can stay with her. I will get on here and update more later.  Husband and I are going to go out on a date. We are working hard on US. Things are very nice right now.

Fantastic! So good to read.

Every valley in our life has a mountain top.

Keep looking UP and soon you'll see yourself on the mountain.

We did have some, then found out FiL sold it for a CHEEP price he.gif

And oh yes, you are blessed with a very intelligent young man ! Usually they do not aknowledge that their parents are smarter until they are in their 30s or 40s ?
