Michelle -- sounds like you are handling it well. there a difference of self empowerment and power -- people seem to get it so confused. I hate hearing someone talk about another person and get off on their weakness.. It's so sad.

i have done that too answer in different ways or kept asking the same question over to see if she would hear me and comment on something other than what she had going on. I have to get over it. the negative energy is dragging me down. it's hard though when you work so closely with someone.

I will admit though. I have had a lot going on in my life and probably am just too dang sensitive right now. Usually i could brush something off and be fine with it, but lately it all matters to me for some reason -- I guess that is me trying to feel everything and still searching for the "real" in my life.


Tex, you go girl. got you a bad critter -- what is the saying taken names and kicken assss.... proud of you.


work is so busy i don't have the time to get on and see you all during the day, but just know i love my BYC buddies.

thanks Robin.

DH came home last night and wanted to know if he needed to "take care of" the possum. I told him no. There was no possum. I dispatched and disposed of him already... no need for him to give it another thought.

I did take pics .. will post later.. he was a nasty big boy.

I agree, and that is why he's not getting any response from me. Here is what happened.. I'll try to keep it short.

We have a predator problem - coons and possums. Coons, mostly.

They are trap wise, so live traps have sporatically worked.

We work full time, so staying up all night and hunting them isn't an option.

I haven't found a livestock guardian dog yet.

So I was toying with using snares. Did the research .. lots of research .. and then ordered some last week. Got them Saturday.

He scoffed.

I went out and found potential snare sights at the edge of the woods and set 4 snares. He wanted to go see them. He scoffed.

First night, didn't catch anything, but could tell they had been "hit" ..

So I tweeked them a little last night and this morning I had snared me a big ol' possum !!

I was so excited. I called DH to tell him and he TOTALLY crushed my high. "Oh, it wasn't a coon though. We can't go around snaring all the little animals in the forest. I don't like the idea of having these snares set (yet he wants to use a conibear??) .. bla bla bla" ... Now, part of me was knowing that he was just jealous because he poo poo'd the idea and then I caught something on the second night .. but it just plain hurt.

I was very short with him, hung up (turned my phone off) and cried.

Everyone at work is excited for me (which I'll tell him tonight).

And I'll not mention the snares again .. will check them in the morning and dispatch anything I catch before work and he'll just be left out ..

Freakin' party pooper...

Am I a baby or what??

You are NOT a baby, boys are just mean!!!! I don't care how old they are, deep down they are just rotten little boys. I am very happy for you. I am married to a man that always looks at the negative too. Always the down side. Ignore him. Don't let him take it away from you!!

that is sooo hard for me. One of my top love languages is affirmation .. All I needed was to hear that he was proud of me .. or a "way to go" .. I can't even get excited about setting another snare .. maybe it's something in me.. I don't know.

I'll just come here and to my dad for affirmation ....

Thank ya'll .. I love ya'll!

I'll just go buy Taylor Swift's new song:

"Why ya gotta be so ... MEAN?"

lol

It is finally Friday!

I am off to the casino tonight with my sis and possibly hubby if he ever makes up his mind! Colton is out of town until late tonight and Des won't be back until tomorrow sometime, so I am ready to go have some me time!! Tomorrow I will go back to the housework, laundry, trailer work, mommy duties.

I also went to see the movie Bridesmaids last night. It was so hilarious! I stuffed myself with popcorn and laughed until I cried! Definitely a good chick flick!
