Sour said y'all missed me... and I should check in.

So, Howdy.


One of the new people ticked me off... and so I just stopped coming by. I clearly need to redo my settings, because I do not get notified when I am tagged, only when I am sent a letter.

So @perchie.girl I didn't know that you were calling...sorry.


My kids have been having issues with doing their chores properly.... so no kidding... we lost a few birds to starvation. -sigh- I think those problems have been permanently fixed.

(all five kids are still alive and breathing) Part of the starvation problem it turns out was that one of the goats was jumping over the five foot duck fence...eating their feed, and then jumping right back out again.

Anyway.... we ordered a set of bantam leghorn eggs to replace the gorgeous cockerel that we lost....and I set the incubator to 99.2 .............. and yep, hatched out one chick. One single bleebing chick, out of three dozen eggs. Most of which had started developing, they were from an awesome breeder.

Still too young to know for sure what the sex is... but signs are indicating that it is perhaps the sex we didn't need.

Eldest son is still out in the world.... and hurting my pride.

He isn't doing anything horrid..... just making me look like an idiot. He will be back right before Christmas.
My settings are for NO!!, would like to just get the @t's and quotes if you could just get them, but they send you every update to every thread your on, over and over and over again....don't need that so I keep it shut off also.
Turned it back on cause I got on one of those chatty threads and wanted to know when there was a response, few of them were good to talk to, many people just post to add to their post count.....ridiculous.... I ain't reading through 100s of posts ... ended up shutting it back off.

"One of the new people ticked me off" I hope I'm safe! I'm kinda old now! Lol!

And kinda funny (not about the starving chickens) about that thieving goat, WOW!

Hope you have a great Christmas with your eldest.

You can shape them and mold them and hope they will be everything you want them to be, and then realize they are too much like you, and you want to just smack them.

Our oldest isn't 'out of the nest' yet, but soon, just not going down the path we thought she would as far as school. Super high honor roll, 'superintendent's' list' all through school, could have taken college courses this yr, in high school and saved $$, went to college with credits already, decided to do none of it her senior yr and go to a trade school and have lots of study halls and nothing classes....Heck, she could have doubled up and graduated a yr early.
Thought back to something my dad told me once, "Do whatever you want to do, cause you will anyways"...

That dear friend is the issue in a nutshell.
