Michigan

It was a really fun day... MJ's turkeys are awesome! ( Oh, for more land to have some on! ) I was really happy that my 3 youngest kids could go with me. All the kids really liked MJ (and James, too!)

The only problem is... I saw my first Australorp and now I want one BAD! (If chickens were parrots, I would probably be accused of being a collector, lol) MJ is a very dangerous woman, lol. Anyone want to trade a Delaware chick....

Good Morning all.

I learned a good lesson at work yesterday- never question authority, lol.
I overheard my boss telling my coworker that he needed her to look up food prices, and make sure our mark-up is correct. She doesnt do food- I am the nutritionist, and I also order all the food for the hospital. She does the drug ordering, etc for the hospital. So, I questioned why he was having her do it. Just a simple little, "why are you having her do the food pricing?" Simple, innocent enough.

Next thing I know, he handed me 12 sheets with one hundred codes on each one, and told me to look them up- told my coworker she was off the hook. (five minutes before my shift was over).

Oh, due by noon today. So, I was stuck at work until 8:30. I feel like I just left, and have to get ready to return.

I am very excited that my turken eggs are on Day 13.

However, my lone olive egger chick is three weeks old. Somehow when I did the calculating, it was going to be big enough...no wait, it was going to be SPRING enough for it to move outdoors, when the turkens hatched. I just know its a roo- big legs, looks like an ostrich. I have no idea what I am going to do with it. Very cute, but I cant take a single roo over to my brother in law- I gave him a billion roos last year. He will shoot me. He definitely does not need another roo. Maybe I will be wrong, and "Cupcake" will just be a very butch girl. If my battery in my camera was charged, I would show you a picture.

All the talk about Miss Jaynes house makes me jealous. I wish I lived closer to everybody. With lots of land....and turkeys.

Morning all!

Rise and shine!

Wow, mom2...I don't think I'd ask anymore questions of your boss.

Good luck today!

Getting things started early around here....going over to MJ's to pick up my Dominique chicks, plus some hatching eggs from FrizzledHen that were delivered to MJ for me by Catray yesterday.

Thanks so much Catray!

I was really bummed

that I didn't get to meet you...I was so looking forward to it. But I'm glad you and your kids had such a wonderful time and a safe trip.

Catch everyone later...have a great day!

Measure area of roof,( lets says it measures 20 x 40 ) those two numbers multiplied together comes to 800.....you would need 8 squares. Remember you need some for starter and some for ridge cap.

Morning everyone!

I am jealous too of all the friends going to MJ. Maybe we should set up a mini-van trip to go visit. We can just pick people up on the way!

Hope everybody has a great day! I am off to bake bread for my tax lady....hope she doesn't cancel again or I will have to eat it again.

haaaaa! when you get home you'll realize you've bought 83 chicks, eaten two pies and for some bizarre reason you want to buy guineas.

which would be all of four and a half minutes long!

my son always says he's going to give kids tours on his go cart.
his dialogue he made up:

This is the garden where we grow STUFF. These are my mom's chickens. That's my mom, she's PLEASANT.

no joke. he made that up last summer. my mom, she's PLEASANT. what does that mean???

will James get released into the 'wild' when he rehabs, or does he have to live with care forever? i was just wondering with the whole missing front teeth thing.
