➡I accidentally bought Balut eggs: 2 live ducks! Now a Chat Thread!

44°F here along with the constant wind. A whole 1 1/2" of snow for the month so far is all of the precipitation here this year.

It is 28 here at the moment with a feels like temp of 25. We actually had flurries yesterday. It didn't amount to anything more than just seeing it in the air but still. It's supposed to be warming up to the mid 40's tomorrow. I know my animals will be happy to have the temps above freezing tho. Side note.... there is just something wrong about Tennessee being colder than Wyoming. I'm just saying....

It has been so cold here that my ducks have been putting themselves to bed (in to their coop) at night and all I have had to do is just lock them in. Even they have been like, "Nope, it's too cold to be out in this mess". LOL!

It is normal for us to have a January thaw at the same time more southern locales get tossed into the freezer.

It was so nice that I whacked my extra Rose Comb Legbar cockerel this morning without wearing a jacket.

I didn't know that you had a child that is in their 20s. You don't look like you're more than 30. I thought you were my age

Kiki is 21 years old and no one can tell me otherwise!

Not for me though necessarily cause I don’t want to just be stuck doing something I hate just to say I have a job.



Yeah that makes sense and I wasn’t saying I wanted to just start at the top or whatever but I also just hate the whole idea of it. The whole work till you die at a job you hate, marry, have kids, die thing has always been weird to me. That and working for somebody else. I do happen to eventually want kids but a lot of people don’t now but I do. But I don’t want to work for somebody else my entire life.

I want to start a pet sitting business, or better yet, a dog training and/or boarding business. And buy enough land to have all my animals. Then maybe I’ll have kids or maybe I’ll marry first then buy the land, idk. But I do know I want to start my own business and not just stick to the rules or conventional way or whatever.

But that said, I’m not saying I’m not gonna work at all. I’ll find some crappy retail job or something in the meantime to pay for it all but it’s not gonna be permanent and I have zero desire to move to some office job.

But idk, maybe not all jobs are office jobs. Maybe I could be an animal trainer for somebody else? That might not be so bad. I haven’t looked into it much. But I don’t want some boring stupid thing. But I need to get a retail job or something in the meantime while I figure it all out.

I worked in a dreaded office job for a summer and I quite enjoyed it. Lol.

They won't harm you unless you act like a crazy person swatting them I had a bee land on me and it hung out for a while. The only thing you should fear is fear itself.

Did you name all the bees "Fear"??!!! Cause they will and have flown by a group of other people to land on and attack me. Without provocation.

Yeah, I figured the inaction was the main problem, but even so, it seems like most people are still against the starting my own business idea...

But I know I’ve definitely been wasting away doing nothing like all year... so I really do need to change that...

I’m going to go into some places and start applying and get one before the college kids come home.

Just wondering if your tune would change if you realized how many times you say you are gonna do something or going to apply for a job, etc. And then you say the same thing a week later. A month later. Etc.

Make a plan. Either apply for jobs or actually get moving on starting a business.

This entire post proves you have absolutely zero idea how real life is. When you have to be responsible for yourself
