It is 6:22 am ...where are they? I HAVE THEM!

[Cetawin]

THOSE IDIOTS!!!!! I have them. My postman now fears me worse than seeing Atillia the Hun coming his way.

I cut him off, jumped out and said "Where are my darn eggs"

He: Huh

Me: 2599 Chapman Creek...where are they?

He: I do not have them but I have a pick up notice to leave in your box

Me: Give it to me you incompetent twit

He: Here take it!


Zoom to the post office, pass my hubby and roomie on the way, arrive 4 minutes before they are closing and the guy looks like he really wants to go home...I hand him the slip and as he turns to go get it...I yell at him "IT SAYS ON THE darn BOX TO CALL....YOU DO KNOW WHAT A PHONE IS DON'T YOU?"

He comes back and says "I remember this name...a man picked up two parcels for you"

Me: What man and where is he?

He: I dunno but he said his wife was going to be ticked off when he got home.

Me: Yes well she is...hello I am the wife. Why didn't you call me when the box said call? You realize it is Friday and your butt will be sleeping in tomorrow while my fragile eggs could have been sitting here all darn weekend....exactly what was the highest grade you attended in school? Was it higher than the 4th grade?

He: ummm errrr ummmm sorry

Me: yes you are....have a nice weekend jerk!

I rush home and DH says...they are fine, I have them and did you kill the postmaster?

I had to relax before I opened the box....all 12 of them are perfect! 7 Suede babies and 5 Issac babies. Woot Blue Orps and Delawares.

Thank you so much Cyn...there are no words to explain how much this means to me.

How did your DH know they were at the PO?

 

[Cetawin]

He did not know...he went by there because he knew I was expecting the Suede eggs and figured he would take a shot at stopping on his way home. He knows how ridiculous our carrier is too. But most importantly, he knows how testy I can get when I am expecting something like this....he tries to avoid me choking someone till their eyes bulge.

he wants a big strapping blue rooster too. He said girls will be okay but he wants a big Suede Jr. hehehe He is hooked. Seeing me bead Suede so long, he has grown on DH too. hahahaha

I swear, if I go into battle, you're with me! Why do they have to act so brain-dead sometimes? Well, at least you have them. And hopefully, they didn't decide to microwave the box or anything when they were not calling and not delivering it.

Crossing fingers for you! I know you can get more, but I want these to hatch-you've been waiting so long!

 

[CrazyChickieMama]

SOO HAPPY FOR YOU!!!!

 

[Slywoody]

Glad i'm not cetawin's post man!!! Yikes!!! This is one woman i would'nt mess with!!!!! Happy you received the eggs in good shape........

 

[maplesky7]

aw! yay! can't wait to see the hatch!

I have 2 hens that hatched from Buster (in Suede's family tree I think)... big fat fluffy girls they are... beauties.

 

[speckledhen]

Did you laugh when you unpacked the box, LOL? Gretchen, I didnt know you had any of Suede's descendants!

 

[Cetawin]

LOL no I yelled at Cheyenne "GET AWAY DO NOT TOUCH THEM"

She said "Mom I picked up eggs every day...and you let me touch the new chicks...get a grip"

I gave her the look and she backed away slowly.

I loved the packing...I sat there cutting the bubble wrap and tape away ccrefully and passing the eggs to her. She put them in the flat for me.

I am so tickled...They are resting now with a huge sign on them that says

"DO NOT TOUCH, GET NEAR, BREATHE ON OR STARE AT THESE EGGS"

I will have to get a picture of it for you. DH laughed.
