Jest Another Day in Pear-A-Dice - Higgins Rat Ranch Conservation Farm in Alberta

[drumstick diva]

Tara just emailed you a few photos. The little black faced lamb is very photo-genic. She hasn't gained an ounce since I have her. I think she is destined to be tiny. I love her just the same.

Hold on Scott. I can't figure out how to post photos on threads. I only get them on when someone else does it for me. The only way I can send out photos is thru Picassa photo program. It lets me gather photos (that are on Picassa) and email them. I can only send if in an email. If I had your email address Scott I could send to you and YOU can have the joy of posting them.

PS promise I wouldn't misuse your email addy. I wouldn't do/say anything that would cause your wife to "fix my clock."

Heel low:

42.8 C°?!?
YOU LIVE IN THE SHARA?

How very observant...nyuck nyuck!

The temp on the thermometer for real was 32C...two more degrees than BantyChooks likes!

Tara
I think that you are ...mmm. ..... suffering from an ultra perfectionism syndrome.

Hmmm...

I did not realize that I was "suffering from" anything...well past excessive happiness and that confounded reality that "time passing does not cure old age??"

​

Perfectionism syndrome...let's see...persons said to suffer from this are:

Filippo Brunelleschi, Leonardo da Vinci, Nicolaus Copernicus, Ludwig van Beethoven, Gustave Flaubert, Johannes Brahms, Franz Kafka, Stanley Kubrick, Andrei Tarkovsky, Brian Wilson, and Steve Jobs.

My, what a stellar group of persons...da Vinci and Beethoven...perfectionists. While it would be nice to be seen to be amongst these great ones...I be me. I love the skin I am in, I love being me and I absolutely refuse to be labelled...Benny, I am not looking for a genus...I am not a Tadorna and the only "kingdom" I want to continue to reside in is Pear-A-Dice, eh.

I am not perfect, cannot strive to be either. I am human and I strive for excellence. To do the very best I can, each and every day I live.

I am not suicidal, anorexic, depressed...so I can flip the bird to any thoughts of perfectionism. I am flawed, a broken toy, a person who strives to excel at whatever I bother to do. I am analytical and I measure things...how else do you strive to better yourself unless you have measurements to compare.

I am not round or square and I am not a peg needing some place to be located. But

I will get to work on photographing my new lamb Tara- love reading your posts and smiling all the way through them.

Thank you DD...happy to amuse you as always!

X2!!

I could never live there. 30° is about my limit.

Minus ten is best...-10C...get lots of work done, no bugs to bug one...yeh... Other than that, like 20C or 20F bestest.

Got them Dearest One!!

This one is my fav

I shared...not sure I was entitled to share, but likely DD does not enjoy the file loading process any more than I do.

I prefer 12° for summer temps, not 20, but other than that... We agree on what a nice temperature is.

 

[drumstick diva]

Tara you are always welcome to share anything I send you. I haven't named any of my pets just in case I may have to someday eat them.

 

[getaclue]

Diva, love your lambs, and the dog too. You are right, the black faced lamb is very photogenic.

And I do ever so much love to make you smile DD...smile and I know others will look at your grinning face and ponder..."What is the WOMAN up to NOW?"

​

Never let on, never give up the secret...that you are smiling as you read posts on the Net!

Let it be our little secret...blessed we be to be able to share moments with each other!

Tara you are always welcome to share anything I send you. I haven't named any of my pets just in case I may have to someday eat them.

EAT YER PETS???? ​

No, no...you PET the pets...not eat them. Besides...yers are stuffed with likely polyester stuffings...you'd appear bloated in all the places you don't wanna look padded by. NO>>>no eatin' the pets. Worse comes to worse...you name them Lamb Chop, Vittles, Skittles of some such foodish type label. Jest in case you wanna feel full without putting on too many calories...per chance??



So y'all saw the one photo taken June 27...of the girls being girls and explaining so well to me why Emmy was a dust dawg the day prior... What the ??? Grey lime rock dusted...

Roll over in the lime rock dust driveway​

Well there are always a SET of photos when it comes to the dawgs...things are always ongoing...so here is the set in sequence. Yes, it is Thursday today BUT (and a big one I do have! ) for me, it is even better than a Flyday (Friday--end of the week, ready for the WEEKEND!!). Today is the last day for bussing...me be bussed out and done like grand DINNER--MIA gone summer time bumming abouts...

So here is a series of clicks...starting of course, with the first one I posted.

Try not to laugh UNmirthfully... life is grand, life is good...the meaning of life is held by my dogs... One of my slogans, is "An ACD is for LIFE!" For their life is good, my life is good, my life is enriched...riches beyond measure, beyond all the gold and precious gems. Give me my Thing ONE and Thing TWO and life is a blast...

An ACD is for LIFE...for their entire living existence and because humans so regularly outlive the dog's life span...they give us back more than expected in a shorter time frame...suck it up, hold it in...give us a reason to live, to bite the day, to be OK, eh.

"Take that! Nemesis Lacy!!!"​

Did I say I my girls...never enough times I suspect...I love my girls!

Crushing....mushing...dusting...

Emmy - "You DUSTED my buns yesterday...it was yer TURN<over>!" ​

Suddenly, from outta now where's, I tell them to CEASE! Let it go too far and there WILL be a bonafided fight...an angry B-Dog fight and then likely, a vet visit to sew them BOTH up...I SAID,

"STOP!"​

Looks of innocents plastered on mugs..."What? You talking to angelic us??"​

Then Em has to incite another stir up...
"Yer mother wears ARMY BOOTS Lacy..."​

"Mom said, STOP!"
"Ahh..." says Emmy​

"See...I am listening to Mom...like a GOOD GIRL should!," grins the Lace
"Ah poop...I wanna roughhouse!," says the Emmy​

"Hey now!!!!," says Emmy..."What's that smell coming from over thar!"
​

"YAH! Sheeps...we can pester sheeps...smell sheeps, kiss sheeps...
be one with sheeps!
SHEEPS!"
​

Gotta go...got ?how? many windows on the bus to clean today...

Oh my--love cleaning windows...what ever happened to the phrase, "I don't DO windows?"

Heel low:

Well? What you figure?? Rather appropriate now ain't it all??

Not every day your country turns 150 years old!!​

Time to be patriotic and wave the red & white, eh.

Can't miss out on an opportunity to dress creatures up in occasional scarves...

And yes, of course, the Girls were in on the action too...

Dang...she even NECKED you too! ​

The girls telling the lambs, "It is OK...she does this quite often!"
Grin and bear it--then she takes them off you!" ​

Super cute and no beasts were harmed... ​

HAPPY CANADA DAY, EH!
