He saw you at your best and worst and loved you uncondionally he saw your beauty even when you couldn't.That must have been a great shock followed by great pain . Memories are great and I'm sure he's visited you in your dreams. If he were around I'm sure he'd want you to stop being so hard on yourself. I wish you happiness I have faith your dreams will come true. Think of where you want to be a year from now. Imagine how you feel when you are where you want to be.set small goals to get you there. I hope I have helped you in some small way. Pam

I could not have said this better. So true!
 
Its a lovely morning, because of no school! Freezing cold here at 29. I may throw some plain navy beans into the pressure cooker to add some heat and stream to the house. Its so different that yesterday afternoon, which was almost perfect, no jacket, weather. My camera got a nice workout yesterday, today editing.
 
My neighbors dog killed some of my chickens. He has agreed to pay for them so I am trying to replace them. This is what I lost plz let me know if you have some he can buy to replace them

2 blue copper marans. Hens
2 cream legbar hens
3 ameracauna hens
3 rir hens
2 sultan 1 hen 1 too
1 golden laced polish hen
1 rhodebar hen
 
It is a good day, and a good day to you all. Good dreams and good thoughts. This morning only chilly, in another hour it will warm up.

This morning Mary, my mama hen was out next to the feeder waiting for me. Under her her 6 little chicks keeping warm while they waited. I was an hour late........:oops: You know what that means. It was not long and a couple of the girls was tapping the glass door. Where is our morning treat?

I just love watching Mary and her chicks, she has every one trained to leave her baby's alone. I was fascinated at seeing the little chicks eating from the same chunk of treat at the older girls, the last group if pullets still have to wait until they are done or grab and run. :D Time moves so fast when your heart stands still.

OK we laid Peetey to rest this morning (he's been in the freezer since he passed) & got a new bird at PetSmart -- a sky blue bird, a young male, you can tell from his markings he is less than six months old but he's never been handled so wild as a March hare (where did THAT saying come from? anyway)  his name is PeeII (Peetey two in roman numerals) according to Jim. Whom I think picked him out 2 days ago but won't admit it. (so we still have Peetey Peetey -Para-keetey, just as we have for years).

anyway he's settling in nicely & I'll get pics tomorrow to post -- I don't want to upset him any more than he has been already today. He is so small compared to our other Peetey. But he'll grow. And he will tame down. I've done this before & know how to do it. A new challenge!

Peetey is soaring high in the sky. He will be missed. :hugs

Congrats on the new bird.

Good morning.

Y'all are too funny about the ducks. You all should be ashamed of yourselves to wish such bad luck on me with the ducklings. Well, I'm pleased to announce that I sold 17 large male ducks on yesterday. Would have sold more ducks but I"m not sure if the younger ones are male or female but as soon as I can tell the gender, they are a gone pecan. :lau

Yesterday was spent running errands and being outside all day. The chicken plucker is half way built. I put the broilers outside for a few hours until they got cold.

I was moving peas around yesterday and princess walked out of the pen and stayed close by us on yesterday. She watched as the plucker was being built.

You all have been talking up a storm, so I have to go back and read about 10 pages. We have a bunch of Chatty Cathys on this thread.

Have a great day!!!!!

KG I've never seen a white pea what a beauty!!!! I'd like to see full grown males feathers. Do they have a design on them? My parents lived in Hi. years ago I bought a pair of earrings made from pea feathers. I get a lot of compliments on them. I'll post a pic one day. Not that you need another project someone might be interested that has peas.It would be easy to make. A good hand made gift. Pam

Thank you. I have a solid white male and I can't wait until he gets a tail. I have seen adult white peacock's trains online but never in person.

This is an internet pic of a white peacock and his beautiful train spread out.

As far as the feathers, I bartered my feathers last year with an event planner from Texas. She drove down to get them and she brought me about 60 cans of canned preserves that I will be eating for the next 3 years.

This year, I plan on selling them to people for arts and crafts.

Both of my girls, Amtrack & Acela, are white. KG & my peas are related. That's how we first met (& the world has never been the same, lol)!

I also have a pair of peacock "eye" earrings - bought them just to see how they were made, so I can replicate w/the feathers off of my males this year!

LOL @ the world has never been the same. You got that right. LOL :lau

I have seen people with peacock eye earrings and they were so pretty. I may try to make a pair this year.
