Ever feel lonely when you dont have any PM's waiting for you?

Yeah the first thing I thought wsa maybe in all the mud slinging I had gotten some mud on the lens or something like that but it was clean and I cleaned it anyway. It is not a really complicated camera anyway so there aren't many settings it could be on. This thing was $200 back in the day and now I have seen the same camera, newer version, for WAY less. I just hate to have to learn a new electronic device.
I guess this is what happens when you let a toddler play with your camera. I have seen him drop it a few times in the past few days and I have dropped it a few times over the years.

Oh, btw, see the small scratch on his cheek? That is from his tricycle accident. He was so sweet. He tried not to cry but kept pointing to his eyes and saying water! That is his word for tears.

I am here! Good morning!

Algo your pics of Isaac are so sweet. I agree with Michelle I really miss the joy and surprise on those little faces at Easter. Easter was always a big deal when I was growing up.

I am glad to hear that! I was just wondering this last weekend about you and how everything was coming along! My Easter was great, how was yours?

It was great! I had a nice visit with Carra. She had a weight loss surgery a couple of years ago. She sends family pics at Christmas so I knew she looked good. However it was still a little weird to see her so thin, in my opinion too thin but she feels great so, more power to her! We vowed to do it again and she wants to come all the way once to see our country zoo! I took her a dozen eggs of course!

But............... The real surprise was when I got home. Kenny built me a brand new, beautiful brooder, and set it up, and put the babies in it while I was gone. PLUS.......... He had secretly ordered me a dozen Guinea eggs from Ebay. They had come while I was at lunch so he had them unpacked and resting when I got home. He had also set up and plugged in the bator

So I will set them here in an hour or so. I am working on the humidity right now.

So, I wanted to ask you if you ever figured out why your hubby was being SO nice a while back

Should I be worried?

So now I have a big pretty brooder for my new babies. I will try to get pictures posted today.

chickenchick--That is great! A new brooder and hatching eggs!

How eggciting!! I bet the babies are lovin' their new digs! Our turkeys didn't know what to think when they moved into their "mansion". They still just stay at one end! I am racking my brain for what to do about the 2 "toddler" ducks. They are getting too tall for their brooder, but I know the boys are just going to tell me to put them outside. I usually keep them in a playpen and don't have the height issue, but that was when we had them in the garage. I am afraid Thunder just might go right through the sides of a pen if he hears AND sees those squeaky toys! I am still thinking.... I can't wait to see pics of your brooder! I will try to post some pics later too.

Colton went out to the waterfowl pen last night to see if we have any goose eggs yet and he found what appears to be a duck egg. I assume it was Gertie's that she laid before she disappeared.

If it hadn't been out there so long, I would have tried to incubate it. But, Colton did say he would set up the bator if we ever start having goose eggs. I feel like such an idiot, I am not sure if we even have a male/female. I waiver back and forth on what each of their genders actually are. I do know hubby and Destiny have both seen them mating at different times and we were told by the previous owner that they thought Chester was a gander, but not for sure. So, I guess we will see eventually. Charmed--Do you need any little baby goslings?

My hubby just called to tell me he is heading home. He said he has a pinched nerve or something in his neck and he is really hurting. I can't remember the last time he ever missed work. He was told to go home, put ice on it and come back to the chiropractor this afternoon. I told him if he needed anything to call. No point in me sitting around staring at him in case he needs me, but I worry about him anyway.

LOL .. it was touch and go for a bit. I finally told him .. seriously .. that I could walk away from every bit of this .. the house, the land, the husband .. if the alternative was him finding something to be mad about EVERY SINGLE DAY. It's exhausting for me and the kids.. has to be exhausting for him .. and I wasn't going to live like that.

It was like a light switch .. he realized that all the "stuff" is just that .. STUFF. Everything can be fixed .. relationships sometimes can't.

Priorities ..

I'm starting to breathe again.

It took a couple days of feeling like I was living in someone else's house .. but it's starting to feel like home ..

Thanks for caring..

Love you guys!

Oh thank goodness he "saw the light"! Also good for you for standing up and telling it like it is! I have this horrible habit of assuming that it is ALL my fault and how could I have let things get so totally out of control. I am getting better about it though, although I still question myself when I do stand up for myself. I am glad it is starting to feel like home. Again, I am very envious of you

I don't need a brand new house, I would just like more space and something with some character.
