No headache today! DH and I took the dogs for a walk. Miss Wiggles had to stay home, she can't make it that far. We walked down a dirt road that I had walked once before. It's kinda creepy, with a bunch of shacks that no one lives in and old box cars on a siding. Today I also noticed deer carcasses in the ditch. I think I have an over active imagination, because I was waiting for the hobos to come out of the woods! Prozac boy was extra antsy, but I'm sure he was smelling a porcupine (his nemesis) in the woods, not a derranged vagrant.

No snow today, so that's another positive. It is supposed to be in the 60's this weekend, so here's hoping.

The secret to a good relationship: don't ever take each other for granted, say "I love you" and mean it, and talk to each other every day!

Over 100 people got the AXE in the same week, I had to watch my friends go all week until I got AXED on that friday. Not to make up any reason for DH to be a butt, but there might be some stress. Good luck to you and yours!!

Oh yes, we are both under stress. I have no doubt about that, and I can fully appreciate that he is worried about our financial position going forward - as am I. Hubby's job has been dubious for some time now, and despite making many job applications nothing else has come up to enable him to switch jobs.

The thing is, what we were fighting about is "What we would do if he did lose his job." His response was that obviously he would have to sell my car, and I would have to quit my job (accountant) and find work somewhere closer to home, and that he would buy me an old bomb of a car to get to work in.

Now, I can take a lot of crap, but if he thinks I'm giving up my car OR my job in an established career because his job goes belly up, then he has another thing coming. Not that I want to sounds selfish, but quitting my job is not (in my opinion) the answer to him losing his job. Plus, the job I have, and the conditions I am employed under, are really great!

So perhaps that makes me look a little less unreasonable? Interestingly, there was no mention of him selling his car.....

But, why sell your car if it gets you to a good paying job?

I don't know. Like I've said before, he is an ok guy. But I never said I understood him.....!

I'm not going to spend my time worrying about it. Neither one of his suggestions are going to happen anyway. I've put the foot down!

Hey all,

I've come to share my frustration, in the hope that I'll jinx myself.

I have 3 pullets, one of which is 27 weeks old and the other two are both 25 weeks old. They are all RIR x BO's and all of them are yet to lay an egg. And yes, they are all girls, lol.

None squat, but only one of my 8 hens does that so I'm not surprised. Two of the three have red faces and wattles. One of those looks like she is laying - but definitely isn't! (They are contained in a certain area.)

Oh, the waiting is so hard!

(I am secretly hoping that by raising the issue, tomorrow I will come in sheepishly to report three new eggs in the nest!)

Yay for no headaches!

I take it Miss Wiggles must be an old girl? Or is she unwell?

This brings up an interesting topic. Do any of you believe in ghosts? I am inclined to believe that they do exist. I find it hard to fathom that we could just die and 'disappear' from existence. And since I'm not religious, the only other alternative is that we exist in a spirit or ghost form.

Thoughts? (Other than the suggestion that I am crazy, lol.....)

Parallel universes. We get the key to it when we die.
They are the ones that take my scissors when I just set them down "Right there" and now they are gone.
Apparently there are not enough pens, scissors, or eye glasses in parallel universes.
