Well I would like to tell you all that things are fine on the farm this year, but Uncle Fred has taken off with the lady that works at Kentucky Fried Chicken. He will no longer be allowed near the family flock. No telling what strange ideas this woman has put in his head. I have heard through the grape vine that they are expecting to have a flock of their own this soon.....poor babies. Or maybe the stock was coming soon, you know how my hearing has gone down hill the past few years. I hope the KFC woman is younger than she looks, as Fred will be 89 in January.
On the other hand our daughter Daphne has decided to become a vegetarian and will no longer eat eggs or chicken; her husband Barney who is allergic to all green vegetables has been eating with us most of the year. So, now we have tofu with every meal and it is getting old.
My oldest son Elmer has decided to become a hairdresser and tattoo artist. Now, this was the son that never learned to use a comb and his hair always looked like woody woodpecker. (as you remember his hair is also red) He has moved to Las Vegas and is doing well for himself. I just wish he hadn't of tattooed most of his face, it's hard to look at him now and look for my cute little boy underneath all that ink.
