Granny's gone and done it again

[twisted-acres-farm]

well caught up and BEHAVED myself , One of my monthly renters called about a burnt out bulb in the hallway and I "almost" said I will get to it when you managed to pay your rent on time. WHY is it the "lame/deadbeat ones" are the biggest complainers ??

 

[twisted-acres-farm]

Well I am off to change a bulb and then need to play "beat the wrinkles" with my dryer.

Should be on latter this evening.

 

[Kelsykin]

Definitely. Kiki was giving me the "eyes" the whole time I was washing her

So Kiki got two baths in one day. Oh, the humanity. Yeah, Kiki may be leaving somebody a present in their shoes or on their pillow.

I have two Yorkies females. Daisy aka Kelpto Pup is 9 to 10 lbs and Ellie aka Psycho Pup is 4 lbs. Neither of them is keen on baths. although if you are in the tub they will climb up so they can lick up the water on you.

Not many gonna take on 16 new birds. Me I would but you not close enough to me

Well it’s funny. First off the buyer was supposed to get them. Then it was turning into I don’t think he’ll take proper care of them they’ll die can you take some? Ok yes I can take some. Don’t have room for all. Maybe my neighbors would like some too - they’re down to two hens. (Said neighbors did take two buff orps)

Oh my neighbor is going to take my rooster and the old girls.

Ok cool. Good news.

Oh can you take more? No mil. I’m at my housing capacity limit. Ok I’ll see if my neighbor will take them all.

Good news the neighbor will take them all! (Right as we were loading up to go get ours/neighbors) uh. Ok. Wait. All, or all minus the ones we’re taking? Oh yeah come get yours.

So we go. Grab 8. (Remember two are going to our neighbors) you sure you don’t want more you should take more…meanwhile they were crammed pretty good into that crate and again. Roosting room. Don’t have enough. Tell her that’s all I can take. She starts stressing about her move and can we fit all her stuff (we’re borrowing a 26 ft box trailer from a friend’s brother) guarantee you we’ll be fine. And just to assuage her further I say if we ARENT fine, then we store some stuff in our shop and bring it up next time we visit you. No big deal, no need to panic. (This is how I roll. I think about a lot of probabilities)

And then the next morning. Phone call. CAN YOU TAKE MORE.

No but if you need help finding them good homes I know people.

No that’s ok.

Ugh!

and I was thinking "sugar" or coffee BUT then I suspect that flavored creamer would win

I like the way you think

If you were closer I would just take them all for you to just be done with it. Then we can sort out who is keeping what after you get MIL moved.

When our house burned down we sold all the livestock. We had all of the birds locked up in the coop. Told the lady to not open the chicken door so we could get them easier. She opened the chicken door. Thinking she could catch them as they came out. 4 hours later she finally managed to wrangle the last of the birds.

Then she wanted to haggle over the price. I was like no give me what I asked or I will take the birds back. She hemmed and hawed I started unloading the birds back into the coop. She left without the birds. She called the next day.... I finally found somebody who wanted all of the birds at my asking price. They came and bought the coop too since it was a trailer we converted to a coop it worked well for them to come to get the birds and the coop in one day.

Kiki is actually pretty good with baths.

My birthday was Dec 28th. But thanks!

 

[CapricornFarm]

I saw the sun shine today! Nice change. Going to Danville tomorrow to meet the lady who is buying one of my Candy Corn rooster. She is flying in from NC.

 

[Wishing4Wings]

I remember those in Florida. None here.

We're not supposed to have them here. Long time ago a vet told us the cat had ear chiggers. He may have meant mites, but who knows. I had to look them up. They sound horrible.
