Nope, we are usually heavy into winter by now. Looks like we're having a green Christmas this year. Doesn't hurt my feelings terribly, just tired of rain. EVERYTHING stinks SO BAD!
Lisa, If i was able I would dig a moat around my whole coop and lead it off to the ditch. but then I would need a way to cross . so A draw bridge ? LOL
Marking where I left off. Missing everyone and hoping you are all having a good day. It's pouring here and there's run off in the ditches for the first time in about a year! Good thing! Have to go back into town later for an appointment, groceries, and pick up Scooter. I will try to catch up tonight, when most of you are heading off to bed, so I will say sweet dreams now! Big hugs to everyone! Take care.
Hi Wishjng, scooter is so cute. Hope he gets all healed up soon. Those darn little dogs, mine had to be sedated as well to do any of that. Just back on from being MIA for the weekend. Its amazing how much you miss everyone when your not on for a couple of days. Super excited your getting rain, sure wish I could send you ours for now as well, Lol.

My runs are sorta on a slope so the runoff should be good, but the water table is close & we've just gotten too much rain. The soil is saturated & won't absorb more. It is a muddy, slimy, puddles & poop, lots & lots of poop
Hey. Haven't heard anything from my mom, but DS threw up this morning. He's not running fever, but he was ragdoll limp for awhile. I gave him Tylenol and toast and he perked right up. Not sure what is going on.
So sorry Camping, sick kids at the holidays stink, but even worse when your not at your own home. Sorry to hear that your Mom is not well as well. Do they know whats wrong?
Gosh I miss being on here with ya'll! This working for a living is so inconvienient! 4 fuzzy houseguests here now, 11 more scheduled for the holidays. (boarding doggies). Plus 2 training dogs and my 7. That's a lotta work and a lotta cuteness!
Here's some updates, hope ya'll are amused while I read: LONG post!
The Sat late night car alarm, I'm convinced it was the real deal, someone or something bumped the car and set off the security light. Meth dealing ex-neighbors trucks seen on the street. Not related, but I mentioned druggies and package and mailbox theft, smash and grab on cars. Can't put out decorations, they'll be stolen. I use a PO box. Yesterday, dude in out neighborhood got arrested with drugs, stolen packages and stolen mail. I can't wait to move.
Excitement: Remember me ranting about my neighbor with the 2 farking hogs that kept getting in my yard and ruining my fence? Yesterday, DH went to town, pops was gone too. Dogs are going CRAZY! I look out back, see my mare flipping out in her paddock. The farking hog is back! CRAAP! Run to the house, call the neighbor at work. He asks "are you sure it's my hog"? RUFKM??? Then "how did it get in" ? RU really FKM??? I say "Dunno Mike, wasn't my day to watch them, but I told you last time was the last time. I'm here by myself, my horses are freaking out, so I'm gonna shoot it if I can't get it outta here. He says "I'm on my way". I digress...go back out, hog is up front freaking out trying to tear down my fence. I open the drive gate, circle around to "shoo" it out, it squares off at me. I charged at it, it went out the gate! Whew! Call neighbor back to tell him the emergency is over, horses are safe, ran the hog out my gate. Silence. Mike: "So it's loose in the neighborhood, you just let it loose"? Me: "pretty much...your gate was open, it'll go home, need to go check my horses and fence, bye bye". Damage control, horses are sweaty but fine, garden is trashed, drip system torn up. all good. As I survey damage, I see the hog racing down their fenceline His adult kids, Dumb and Dummer trying to herd it to the back, it ain't happy, it's charging the jack hat son. I hollered "Ya might wanna just close your gate and let him settle, he's pretty ****** right now". Less than a minute later, I heard Ka- PAP! Sure sounded like a gunshot. Hmmm...haven't sen the hog since.
Now I'm reading. Love to all of you, hope I catch up!
