So annoying I just wrote out a whole post and somehow deleted it. Oops.2nd attempt...

I just checked out Valdez as I hadnt heard if it. It looks beautiful. Didn't realise you were in Alaska. Id love to go there one day. Can't believe it's classed as a city and it only has around 4,000 people! I can appreciate being up there in Alaska why it's so important to be able to fend for yourself if you can.
Karen, glad to hear your neighbours are ok, hooray for hot fire fighters!
Tarheelbirdy that chicken pic was funny!
Well this is where I went today.... I love places like this, I find them so relaxing. Walking around the rooms imagining you are in a different time. Beautiful gardens too. This place is 'montacute' house built during the 1500's. Was shocked to find out in 1927 it sold for £5,000 as no one wanted big houses anymore.

What a fantastic place. I love those old palaces too. We don't have very many, we're too young as a country, but the Biltmore House is similar. I love to go at Christmas time when it's all decked out and decorated. www.biltmore.com

In American English we call Polish rabbits a Polish like the country when in reality the breed us actually a polish like polish your shoes or the fancy silver. Maybe it is the same language thing.
Oh, guys, I made a big mistake. In the fire at the neighbors, one of the neighbors did die...try and picture this: they were mowing weeds and started a fire and somehow the neighbor got badly enough burned to die. No wonder the old ladies with the casseroles were coming, it wasn't just the barn. We, the rest of the neighbors, are aghast.
I am lucky enough to have married the best husband in the world. He is on the phone right now arranging to get medical equipment and do a complete home remodel so a very ill friend can come home from the hospital to die. He is cheering the wife up and I am proud of him.
Had a duck, chick, and lamb born today, yippee!

I just don't know what's on the people's brain

six days ago, a client gave me 144 eggs to hatch in my machine

half hour ago, my godfather call me on the phone, I was scared about something bad, and run very quickly with my little son

we found him in the hatching room, he said me there was a terrible smell, truly there was

in the machine where we put this client's eggs, there was three exploded eggs, we take the sponges, the buckets, the candler, the sanitizer, a lot of things

when I was removing all the eggs from the machine, my men cleaning and candling them, meanwhile, I've got to disinfect the machine from top to toe

we quickly disinfect the good eggs and put them back in and hope the whole hatching doesn't gone to Mary

the question is: if these eggs explodes at the sixth day and just 43 on 144 were good, how they're old?, how could a person think to give old eggs to an hatchery and hope there are no consequences?

some men got the brain under the toes!

That's horrible. I know what it's like to have one explode, it's an impossible situation. So sorry....if it's not one thing it's another, right?

YIKE!!! I just realized what my last few posts sound like!! I don't mean "I'm crazy" like that. I mean like I am not mentally right, messed up, scatter brained, pick one. Just had to clear that up for everyone.

now I get what my horoscope means about watching what I say!

I understood what you meant

That's terrible. I'm sure you all are so horrified. Life does have quite the ups and downs, doesn't it? Never ceases to amaze me.

I have missed y'all, but I've had a fun weekend at a rodeo, shuffling around competing with 2 of my horses. It was lots of fun and I think I have my gelding sold as a result of his performance in the Team Roping. He worked his butt off, and I'm proud of him. Maybe I won't sell him, hmmm.....anyway, here's a picture of me riding him in the Sorting......

I'm off to get clean and presentable again, and to go to bed. See you tomorrow.

Goodnight TarheelBirdy, what a beautiful horse! That would be a lot of fun to attend a rodeo, now all I need is ti actually learn how to ride a horse!! Maybe I'll start by watching a rodeo-ever barrel race? Earlier you mentioned your dad-I hope all is well in your family.

Karen-That sucks about your neighbor, hopefully they lived a wonderful life. Your husband sounds like a very sweet guy, and babies make the world go round and can brighten any situation. Even before you have them....I am counting down the days to purchasing my new duckies!!

Megan Amber:
Here is a photo for you of Miss Hugo, who is also counting the days to duckies!

Miss Hugo-what a great name! And how cool-wishing my ducks would go broody. Is she a Pekin?

Buongiorno signore,

I'm sorry about Karen's neighbor, I obviously was joking about light some fire, today it's impossible to burn everything, the storm rain continues

my little boy is at home this morning, I've called school to advice about, he help me with some stormy chores, a morning without school doesn't waste his life

I was hoping to see a real rodeo since I was born, the horses, the bulls, the challenge and if all the horsemen were like the one with the green hat, I'll take a seat tomorrow!

bagnatissimi saluti,

Bill
