Just waite !  

I have heard of toddlers so jealouse they attempt harm on the new baby !!

And aren't you glad you do not have to go 2 more weeks !?!?   

Yes I am glad I dont have 2 more weeks. But at the rate Im going I might as well still have two weeks... Im SO ready for this to be over! My hips hurt so darned bad that I can barely walk from one end of my house to the other without them feeling like they will fall apart. Been having rounds of contractions that go on for 45 minutes, every 5-10 minutes, then nothing. Sickening pains and all. This flat out sucks! Chloe was easy compared to this!

Step 1 take out freezer stuff. (motor, etc)

 

Okay from there I am unsure whhat to do. 

 

And yes nothing ventured nothing gained. I am just afraid and i want it to work. 

 

REMEMBER this is the worst part. The "freezer stuff" IS ALL PRESSURIZED ! ! !  Yes those little tubes will spray nasties in yer face if not careful!
 

Ok this is really a heads up for renart and any other N. Kitsap residents!

My mother and I were aproached by a local off duty sheriff the other day. He warned us that there has been an un-specified number of confirmed cases of rabies in the local coyote packs.  The sheriffs office has not gone public with this as of yet, as they do not want to start a panic. But we were asked to quietly give the heads up to local farmers.

But please be aware, watch your self, and your livestock. There has been a few reports of daytime run ins with this growing pack. There is talk of a big hunt being put together locally here. And has been sudgested that if you have the proper amount of property, and see a coyote during the day, acting abnormally, to protect yourself and your livestock.

I know the pack that I have running here is quite large in numbers. I have personally counted 23 run through my property and my mothers proplerty in a short amount of time. Sounds unbelievable doesnt it? I wish! And I am just about certain that the pack that runs through my property will also run through renarts, as we are less than 3 miles apart.

Just wanted to put a quiet heads up about whats going on locally with our wild canine counterparts.

Ok now back to our regular programing.

OK so for those who haven't heard seems our little T HI is now going to be in need of some blue things for the new little one. As if she didn't already have her hands full enough!

And since the antidote is alcohol, and they don't have access too any (I'm pretty sure) then we are hoping it will work.

 

I'll keep you all posted.

 

Well, I was too worried about my chickens getting them (although we don't have any egg eaters), so Himself removed the poison eggs. We are going to come up with some other plan to rid ourselves of the horrible creatures.

Well things have taken a twist. I have decided I am gonna pull the plug and go a different direction.    So as of today I will be totally changing what I do. May not see ya much anymore.

How did you poison the eggs? We have squirrels that steal our eggs, crack a hole in the top and eat the contents. I don't think a trap would be sufficient enough for them our hills are crawling with them! We try to shoot them everytime we see them...but they are learning to scat when we come around.

I hope you have very strong help when you get it home. Those are very heavy if glass. 

 

Thank you DH helped me with the tank. We got home and were cleaning it out when I decided to measure  both large tanks that I have bought recently. My to my dismay, the "90" gallon tank I bought first is exactly the same size as the 125 gallon tank I bought yesterday. Both tanks are rated at 125 gallons. So we carefully checked out both tanks and found that the first tank is in better condition, and we are going to use it on the stand we got with the tank we bought yesterday. The tank we bought yesterday wasn't in as good of condition as I had hoped, but it does hold water. I am going to re-sell it as a reptile tank. We think something fell against the tank at some point. Even though it holds water, I wouldn't trust it not to fail at a future date. That would be an awful lot of water in a home.   

I'll try to post picture of the tank, when we get everybody safely moved over into the bigger tank. DH is home so we are going to get it done this week. At least we are planning on it. lol
