Eggs will be mailed tomorrow from me - I made a special 2 1/2 drive one way just to get them (Ok thats not the only reason I drove that far ) since my birds are ALL being bad right now.
Sorry I didn't get to see you Mrheinz77 - but I did go see a whole lotta goats get milked!! Now I really, really want goats and even though I'm not fond of white goats no. 33 is fond of me.
For the rest of you - I did not get my eggs from Mrheinz but was about 10 minutes from where he lives but that goofball thinks he needs to go to work during the day!
Steph,
I would have rather spent the day showing you around. I've had enough getting my butt chewed. I was 3 minutes late getting in the building because I had to go back and get my keys from my truck. This is after the principal made me work on my own time to pack and unpack my room. I decided I will wait outside the building until 1 minute before I need to be in my room and then leave at my contract time. If she wants to keep bullying me I will only work on contract time. Sorry to vent here. I've had my butt chewed so much by her in the last 2 weeks there can't be much left to chew.

I'm so sorry! Is she new this year or a first year principal? This is why GOOD teachers are getting out of the profession, everything is micromanaged and your hands are tied to really teach, get kids excited about learning. I am so thankful that my youngest is a senior this year.
Jim,
I have plenty of butt so when you have had enough tell her I can't afford liposuction so chew away. Wish I had a good answer to a bad situation. I never realized how much politics were involved in teaching until I taught. Won't go there again. I discovered that I really don't like people in general, just a few individuals.
I am not happy with our public schools here. School has been in session less than 2 weeks and we have: 1 black eye, being slammed into lockers, fist fight over place in line, stolen homework and backpack (2 separate incidents) and my being told that they are 'working' on it. No one will return my calls or emails so I am going to have to take a day off from work to deal with them.
I would just call it quits but for lack of other education options and I can't homeschool them. I would but they are too young to stay home by themselves while I work my day job. Currently I just supplement with additional subjects on the weekend and evenings. Every vacation is just an opportunity to eduate...museums are one of my favorites, we try to hit all the major parks and sites, next year we are doing the Capitol or road trip to see things like Grand Canyon, Mt Rushmore and such.
Peggy,
Sheep???? Surely you meant goats. Goats rule.

I have had goats they always try and get out escape ect ect,with sheep I can get wool,skins,meat and milk and they don't try escaping like goats.Plus they are grazers to.
Hi from Ga. We have had many goats ( Boer goats ) over the years. They are always getting into trouble. We now raise Barbados Sheep ( Blackbelly sheep) No problems at all. I wish we could get regular sheep in this part of the country but I guess its to hot for them.
too funny about butt donations for Jim. I am in on that, I have spare he can have. But sorry, mean bosses stink. Been there, done that. Had one that lit into me on my day off! I went in to deliver gifts to coworkers for Xmas and she started ragging on me for putting up a calendar! So over being a scapegoat.
