Dixie Chicks

[Beer can]

lost another 1.4 for a total of 7.8

Woo Hooo for WW....   e

X2 awesome! Stay away from the booze! I lost twenty in one month, almost thirty in two, all from working first shift and I didn't drink any beer. Not the beers fault, when I get done I like to put the feed bag on. Gained it all back pretty quick as soon as I went back on second shift slugging beer.

Think the wife is more 'nuts' than me. I didn't think she liked the chickens. When my broody EE hatched out two she took the three other eggs and put them under a light. I said just throw them out, they won't hatch. She said she hatched out a bunch of duck eggs when we moved that way...forgot... Four days later, healthy chick! Under a freaking light bulb wrapped in a little blanket!

I just went to bed and resisted the urge. LOL! Glad I did because the Straw-ber-rita was going to be the strawberries in the banana split. We had no ice cream and no bananas though.


@perchie.girl ,, That's awesome! I'm so happy for you. Keep up the good work. I lose around 10lbs, then I get in a slump and gain it all back slowly.

I can't imagine if DH was also into chickens. He is always complaining that we have over 100 chickens. When our broody hatched out the last 5 he about had a fit. I said "Eh, What's another 5 chicks?" Sounds like DW is becoming an enabler! LOL!

I hate people sometimes. I keep a bottle of ibuprofen in my filing cabinet at work. I do not use then all that often and it was a 500count bottle. Well after discovering less than a third of them left last week I have put them into my locker which stays locked 24/7. 2 of the girls are now madder than a hornet cause they don't have free access to the bottle. Uhm, those are mine. Stay the hell out...it'd be one thing if you asked but instead you snooped through my stuff and went "oh, ibuprofen, think I'll take a handful"


Rant over.

@minihorse927 , Hope your day gets better. Tell them they can buy it at Kroger, Walmarts, most anywhere for $1 a bottle. Then they can reimburse you for what they stole!

Getting ready for work. Go in later today. I went out to check on 2 pullets that were trampled....yes, 2 more. One is doing better, the other died. I think that coop may have cocci. Going to get meds today after work for them. Some out back at the big coop are coughing and wheezing. One I have isolated, treated three times. Now, she has it again. Time to cull her. It's not a wonder, we have had SO MUCH RAIN! Have used 4 bags of pine chips in the coop. Just to keep them from walking in water. Going to buy more today. Years past, never had to use chips.



Pics taken at dusk. We have to walk thru these puddles to get to coop which is on the left in these pics.

News said a local man has been diagnosed with West Nile Virus. They are advising locals to get rid of standing water to avoid mosquito breeding grounds......Yea, I'd love to! LOL!

That sounds like theft, Minihorse. I personally would throw some chicken poo in the bottle and put it back. My hand lotion was getting lower and lower at work years ago. I actually watched people practically bathe in my lotion using it up to their shoulders. So I just got small size and kept it in my pocket, then took the bigger bottle on the counter and mixed a whole bunch of interesting stuff in it. Like baby formula, surgilube, milk, anything I had available that was not harmful. People would walk buy and take a few squirts and rub it all over. I saw one smell it and continue to put it on I laughed soooo hard. Other people who had their own private mugs in a cabinet in our kitchen used to put fake roaches in their cups.
