    Karma -- Thoughts?

    When my children were very young my parents would watch them occasionally. My father took them to the Catholic church and had the baptized without our knowledge. He was so afraid of original sin. Catholics baptize shortly after birth. They just sprinkle holy water vs immersion. We didn't find...

    Winterizing

    Cover the windows that will cause them to be have drafts on them with a heavy sheet plastic. Just cut some furring strips to go around the edges and screw them to the wood with the sheeting underneath. That way you still get sun through the plastic to help warm the inside. Be sure there is...

    Karma -- Thoughts?

    I was horrified by that story. I never followed it that closely. I knew she was delusional but not to what extent. That was such a shame. It seems like a lot of people that are on psyche medications don't like to take them. I guess you have to do the nurse routine and be sure they take them. I...

    having a Day - you know the type.

    Quote: Me too. Found out that the barber pole worm and cocci killed my beautiful Suri Alpaca in June . . .so treating everyone tomorrow and hoping for the best. Just not been a good year for my Alpacas. Did you have insurance?

    Karma -- Thoughts?

    Quote: We do fostering for teens, teen moms, and kids that are stuck in limbo till they have a perm. adoptive plan in place. Although I know the folks within the state and fed agencies are angels i hate the endless bogus investigations. We fostered for 11 years. I drew a smiley face on a...

    Karma -- Thoughts?

    Kids are the best investment anyone can make. I have no idea what you do, but if you help kids you're great in my book. Sounds like you foster. If you do, you know that the government people are a royal pain quite often. However they are saints. They care about those kids and they do the job for...

    is this normal mating behavior ?

    It's all about dominance.The other day our Tom was sitting on one of the hens backs. Just showing dominance. Eventually the hens get used to it or they hide. We have 1 roo and 12 hens in our chicken flock. About 8 of the hens do what he says. The other 4 tell him where to put it. They'll come...

    Karma -- Thoughts?

    I was friends with a couple of JW's. They told me that they don't believe in Hell. Everyone is worm food except a handful of people that live their life exactly as Jehovah did. They also told me that a JW is incapable of lying. So I always took them at their word.

    Karma -- Thoughts?

    Quote: I know you didn't ask me, so you don't have to read this if you don't want to I think that the Original Sin was a dang good excuse for all of humanity to be able to do pretty much what they darn well pleased and STILL get into heaven, if that's what you believe. I just can't find it...

    mad as a wet hen and needing to vent

    Thanks Wellsummer. I have always wondered why women act the way they do. You know the whole "If you loved me you would be able to read my mind." thing. It's really the secret rule. Making the secret rule not secret would be nice. What I don't understand is why get rid of an animal if you want...

    Karma -- Thoughts?

    Quote: Not true. People go to Heaven or Hell based on whether they accept Christ as their Savior or not. Deeds or "generic karma" only determine the degree of reward or punishment. That's the theory. Nobody has ever lived to tell about it. So it remains a theory. That's what I was told...

    Karma -- Thoughts?

    I'm agnostic and I don't really absolutely believe in anything spiritual. I would be atheist except it means you believe there is no God. I can't say that because I can't prove it just like a believer can't prove their belief. I like to think there is something after death. However I can't...

    Karma -- Thoughts?

    Absolutely believe in it. I believe most religions are based in Paganism. Christianity used all the Pagan celebrations as their Holy Days in order to make it easier to convert the Pagans. I don't believe in the Bible but I do believe that the three fold version of Karma is in the Bible. I know...

    mad as a wet hen and needing to vent

    Quote: Thank you. You manage to say what I would like to say, only you say it better. I like the 'Secret Rules'. That is very spot on. It's always a good idea to let people that you intend to keep associating with know what is expected. It's kind of like making sure someone you associate with...

    Chicken nest box plans

    I just used that cheap plywood they use on roofs. It's about 5.99 at HD. Make the boxes 4 ft wide about 15" deep and the opening in front about 12" with a 3" lip in the front like those cat litter buckets have. Make the back around 18" high so the top is slanted. Use some furring strips in the...
