A few hours of mole hunting and now I have a hangover.

Healthy crush or restraining order type crush?

Healthy crush, all the way. I value my career far too much for it to be any other way.

A special day today.

It was nine years ago today that I saw the first photo of my daughter. After waiting two years and filling out countless forms, there she was. And my life has been increadibly blessed ever since.

You don't get docked points, you probably get extra points. I lived in Grand Marais a Long long time ago I always thought there were 2 main types of people in GM. Artist and rednecks. Unless you hang with the artsy crowd I am sure you will make it in.

I just might get in... we lived without running water for 5 years, and have twice as many vehicles as drivers although one of them is currently torn completely apart in the garage awaiting an olive drab paint job. Well, I guess parts of it are out in the yard behind the garage... Of course, if you count 4-wheelers, 3-wheelers and tractors as vehicles, then we have three times as many vehicles as drivers.... The combined age of said vehicles is 66 years, and that's only including the 4 "highway legal" ones... BUT, I can't take credit for a lot of this, it's mostly the Hubby and his projects.

I am back in after doing the bird chores.

I forgot how long it takes to do "winter" chores. I have all the birds in pens except 3 guineas, which I set live traps for, and the turkeys. I figure the turkeys can fly to get away from most predators. I did not let them out until after 9 this morning.

I even have the CX's in a pen again. I must have had a bad day yesterday. I was in and out most the day. I spent a lot of time in the shed, but I still lost 3 birds. One of the Creamette hens I got from Heidi, a BA hen, the one that hatched the 10 guineas and the hussy. I really miss her. She use to follow me all day.


Oh and I lost a chick that the turkey was mothering, but that could be anything and not a predator. She is not the most careful mother, and tends to walk off without seeing she has all her chicks.
