Ugg,,

About five hundred posts ago, I asked you if there would be room in your truck if I needed your help bringing the brooder from HH from Chickenstock....

G'night all you great Mi's! I'm off to fix front leg of pork (home grown) with onions, in homemade parsnip wine with fingerling potatoes, Brussels sprouts and corn. I don't usually make "big" food during the week, but Himself says I need to make room in the freezer because . . .

A baby Uggo hatched today.

Just one of the eggs. All white. Naked neck.

Any takers?

Mom 2, I am so sorry

My BR girls have finally picked up the pace and started laying well in the past couple of weeks. However, one of the girls deserves time off for what she laid today.

Oh, I remember that post. I thought you were trying to be funny.

I'm sure I'll have room. I can bring a trailer if you plan on really stocking up.

Oh, thank you everyone...

I came back because I had good news to share too..its a very small world.

Today was the honor's breakfast at my daughters school. Giving our awards and a pin and an Academic Varsity letter for her all A grades...
yeah, I sure didnt win any award at all.

She sent me a text.."Mom? Im at the banquet..." and me? I was sitting at work. FORGOT ALL ABOUT IT. Missed it. So I felt so guilty, like the worlds worst mama..so, I called up the florist to send her flowers at the school. Florist tells me that the school wont allow them to deliver there- not even to the office. *(hm, betcha they would if it was for a teacher or secretary or the principal..but I digress....) so I had them deliver them to her work. I give the person on the phone the address and my name my daughters name..and she asked me if I used to live in the apartments a long time ago in Southgate...yes yes I did..she was my friend and neighbor then 20 years ago!!!!!! She says, "i see you at all the school events.." And I asked her why she has never come up to me and said hi. She said, "I was afraid to, because I am HUGE now"..

I said, "SO what I am old and wrinkly now- who cares? " She said because she knows people talk and say, "wow, she got big"..Her son is in marching band with my daughter, and her other child goes to school with my younger daughter.
Small world.

SO. what does my husband say? He looks at his dog and says, "All those roosters and you had to kill a pullet?"

This is a sad story, and you told it well because I can totally see the dogs doing these things. haha! And yes, this line says it all doesn't it? I'm sure that's what my BF would say too.

I dont ask for help to be funny...putting all my Uggos in your truck while you and Hubby are unloading the brooder...funny.

No, I dont plan on stocking up, its just that my husband has that girly truck and I always bring all the coolers of drinks to ChickenStock and they wont fit with the brooder..and Im not sure it will fit in his girly truck because the girls will need to sit in the backseat..so It wont have much room.

Thank you.. good luck at the NEW job..I bet you are so excited. If you didnt live so far away, I need to hire techs- BAD, really really badly. I have to deny all vacation requests because there are no techs to cover a shift. People must still show up, even if dead.

Well, today was more productive than I wanted. LOL.

I have only the door left for the coop. I kindly asked the neighbor if he could help me cut it right. I don't feel like dealing with a crooked door. LOL. Oh hell every thing else is crooked. Kid you not. Come measure and square, and OH, bring a level, and you will leave scratching your head at how the hell its so sturdy when not a darn thing is straight. LOL. I don't care. It is standing. It will not fall over. LOL. I just use really BIG screws. HAHAHA.

So, as soon as I have a door.... aiming for friday. I am going to work at getting the littles used to going in there. May have to do a few at a time, but, we will get there. I have to put screen or something along those lines between the roof and the frame first... Otherwise, they could get out thru those gaps and then wouldn't be able to get back in.

I got the front lawn mowed. Took me and 2 men 30 minutes to get the lawn mower going. OMG! What a pain in the butt! I am so very grateful for the neighbors I have. They are one fantastic couple, and Carls dad Bill, I wish he were my kids other gramps. He has a lot of know how in that brain. Thats what I miss most about my dad being gone.

The silkies are not out yet. They are tapping the shells though. I put them to my ear, and I hear tap tap tap. WEEEEEHOOOO! Leila is staying put on them. The little dots are all good too. They handle very well.

Sarah, got my fingers crossed for you.

Welcome to any one I forgot to welcome....

And.... There's something else I was going to go on about, but I forgot...
