Lol! I'm new here! I'm bound to get scolded at some point! Plus I'm tired...I go to college full-time online, plus take care of my son all day, who will be 3 on Sunday. He was particularly exausting today. I also jumped the gun when we had a warm spell a few weeks ago, and planted 12 of those huge flats with 48 slots each of flowers and tomatoes and peppers. I have to clean out a large portion of my house nightly to bring them in so they don't freeze. With all of the living things around me to take care of, I'm just incredibly pooped! I wouldn't trade it for the world though. :)
I hear you! I do not think anyone who has not been a stay-at-home parent understands at all how much work being a stay-at-home parent is.

I have a 4 y/o and a 1 1/2 y/o and man, they can really run me into the dirt. I got myself (you're welcome, yourself,) a mini greenhouse this year that I put into the livingroom so that all the flats had a good place to go, without being dug up my kids or slept on by cats. It is great! And they take up so much less space. And I didn't have to install a mini bamboo pike fence all the way around them, which mostly hurt me and barely dissuaded the cats.

What games do you like to play? Im a video gamer too when I have time...which isn't often lately.

I'd been sticking to World of Warcraft, which I'd been playing since it was released, but... most of the people I know that played moved on some time ago now, and even my in-game friends have all but disappeared since the release of Star Wars TOR. I haven't been able to raid since having kids anyway. So I recently gave in and started playing League of Legends with them, which is fun, provided you like PvP, (I like PvP,) and also it's free, which is definitely a bonus. The biggest downside for me on LoL is that it is against the policy to leave games. While I understand where they're coming from, sometimes I have to leave. I play after my work is done and my kids are asleep. There's no telling when someone will wake up, and then I have to walk away and hope no one reports me. When I am just playing with my friends that's not a problem, especially because we Skype, but random people who have no idea why you just went idle for 15 minutes? Not as easy. I haven't gone so far as to cancel my WoW account, or anything, but.... I just might.

How about you? I am not sure if there is anyone else else who would make it through that paragraph.

No pictures yet. So busy yesterday showing all kinds of critters to the resisdents at an Assisted Living, and they also had some day break people come in ( people with disabilities that still live at home). Many of the residents were farmers, or farm kids. You figure the age group is 70 to 102 (a few there are over 100 and two are 102). Anyway, they all had advise for me on how to do this and do that with regards to raising farm critters. One 102 y/o lady picked thru a litter of rabbits and started sexing them! Anyway, a good day.

That is so very cool.

I think this weekend I'm gonna till up my garden area again and get some seeds planted maybe. I'll have to stir up my compost bin to get the good stuff at the bottom. It's probably too early for all this business, but I get so antsy to plant things that I can't wait anymore! I want to plan the layout of the garden too, and plus figure out the shape of it due to there now being chickens in part of it...don't mind me, I'm just babbling.

If you get bored when you're done, you could come till mine!

Cute! I love that they have interchangeable mamas.

Like I told my son who asked why I didn't just buy one, "I can spend $100 on the donkey or $100 on you - which would you rather?" He has just started drivers training so wants a car. He got the point.

Best of luck on your new eggs!

I mean I don't know what she could have done to them but the second I put her in this morning a couple of them went all long-necked on her and then they all just descended like pirhanas pecking everywhere, not just her neck.

Maybe it's time to make the brooder bigger. I'll have to figure out how to do that and once I do maybe I'll try again.

Are there maybe a couple, or even just one, that might be able to stay with her in the meantime?

Lol, yea I think I started it when I said I had a crush on him a while back haha. It's good fun, love this place.

All I did was ask for the date I needed to sign up for chickenstock by.

They really are! I had no idea how vicious they could be. It's, frankly, a little alarming. They rest of them scuffle and peck at each other a bit but there's something about this one that ALL of them really dislike. Thanks for the crossed fingers.


You know pterodactyls didn't die out, they just evolved into chickens....

Happy Birthday Silly...

For your birthday, I have two more spare Uggos that hatched out today. Thats three new ones now.

They are YOURS, for your birthday present.

I will deliver them to Chickenstock, just for you.

This blurb was in the Detroit Free Press this morning, "Which came first, the chicken or the egg? According to Genesis 1:20, it would be the chicken, since God creates 'fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.' From a Darwinian perspective, the egg comes first, since a mutation happens at conception, and all new species start as mutations from other species."
