I got to spend some time with Robert today such a rare treat. I swear that boy is a freaking genus . (a word I cant even spell. haha) I had a big branch down on my willow and he dragged it to the burn pit. I was wondering what he planned. he first of all twisted the limb off the tree the rest of the way, then he broke the smaller limbs and the trunk looked like a big Y . He took one side of that like a wishbone and wiggle it and the dang thing split in 2. He grabbed some dead grass and has us a bon fire going in no time.
The best I could do was hurt my back climbing the hill.

I'm not sure how many he has asked, but he keeps giving me items. There are 10 people on the fundraising committee, and so far DH and I are blowing them out of the water.

I want everyone to be responsible for getting $1k, not including items. I don't think I'm being unreasonable.

Im just going to get this out of my system now. Warning, graphic story.
. Tomorrow my sister would of been 56 yrs. She died 8-9 yrs. ago on mothers day. Most of my older friends here know this story already.
Kim, my favorite and closest to me . We shared a room as kids, we did everything together. I helped with her kids and she helped with mine. She was my best friend and she was murdered. The murderer was never brought to justice and my mom went to her grave never getting the satisfaction of knowing that.
anyway, heres my story,
Kim was married and living in FL.. and mom was here with me. She had her husband arrested and put in jail for beating her. She called us at least every other day. The weekend went by without a phone call but I didnt think too much about it. Sunday night I went to bed and had a vision. Some call it lucid dreams. It was of a cat Kim had gave me years ago. A beautiful calico and it was floating to me and all the skin on one side of it was gone . I was screaming, I could hear myself screaming, Tom could hear me screaming but there was nothing either of us could do. I was froze in place. He shook me for a long time til I was able to come to myself. He had a drs. appt . that am. and I took him. He went from drs. to hospital to be admitted for kidney stone. I was coming home and before I turned into the drive way I heard this noise I have never heard before. Whailing I have learned it is called. It was mom. I ran inside to find her sitting at the table. quiet now . Not moving , a glazed look in her eyes. I noticed the phone there and picked it up. Another sister was on the other end. She told me Kim was dead. My whole world ended . My moms. Seems like they let her husband out that night. She was beat , thrown in the back of a truck then thrown out of said truck (his) and dragged for over 400 ft. We had her flown here to us and put in the mausoleum close by so mom could visit her. and they are together now. I explained my dream to the funeral director and he said that was exactly how it was , her skin gone on the same side I dreamed of. I think she was telling me to look for her. IDK. One yr. to the day I was sitting in my barn crying and the dog catcher pulls up . He says, Your going to think I am crazy but something is drawing me to this house. This isnt even my rote. I have something to give you. Your supposed to have it and I dont know why. He walked to his truck and came back with a tiny calico kitten. I busted out and said, Thats ok, I know why.
anyway, Happy Birthday Kim, love you and miss you too much

G'night all. I had a broody hatch one chick that is the oddest looking bird ever, part Hona, part Malay and part Krainkoppe curious on what it will look like. Pink legs, blue beak, grey comb and black as coal eyes. Will try pictures tomorrow if she doesn't Attack
