They found us, now we have to behave.
We tried. If you'd read the 20 pages you missed, you'd know we sorta fail at behaving.
Some of us fail more spectacularly than others...
But we should get an 'A' for effort!
Morning all.
Iowa Roo Mom, put it in The Big Guy's hands and don't worry. What happens, happens, whether you worry or not. So save your energy, count your blessings, and keep you eyes, ears, and heart open.
Had a major meltdown myself last night. Every day I have to remind myself to look forward and count my blessings. Some days are easier than others <sigh>

Me too. He is/was the creative writer in residence for ASU. I had him sign a bunch of books.
On my DH's Ender's Game he wrote: "A friend of Ender".
On my book, he wrote: "A child rearing guide"
And then I asked him to sign my son's book. He asked, "What's his name?"
I said,"Ender".
He gave me a semi-dirty-you-are-a-looney-toon look.
He wrote: "To Ender, a survival guide for geniuses."
Funny dude.

You do know, that this is not us, yes? We are only in this thread because we are envious of real work----that and Batz posts pictures of her hottie husband.
I'm here because someone held a gun to my head.
Probably Buff, she's unpredictable that way!

Today's Forecast: Intermittent splort showers.
Last night we went home and secured the chickens. Jeff climbed into the loft and found the remains of two turkeys, the phoenix roo and the duck that was missing from the day before. Definitely raccoon. We put up more wire and plugged the smallest of holes.
Good news is everyone made it through the night. No missing chicks today. Bad news. I'm on my 2nd - yes SECOND - visit from "aunt Sally" in the last 4 weeks. Yeah Me!
Gonna try getting a business line of credit for the store. That should solve the short term financial issues. Brow beat Jeff into doing laundry today. He's doing it, but I'm sure I'll have to "pay".
by ten am it was hot as H-E-Double Hockey Sticks already. The air isn't even working! I plugged in a box fan. Have almost all the stuff checked in that came in yesterday. Got a really cool two horse harness in - have NO IDEA where I'm putting it thought!
That's my day so far.

Last night it was still 85 at 10:30pm. Thought about leaving the baby turkeys out all night but then decided to give them a little more 'weaning'. I'm a nervous turkey mom. Its so funny to me that the rehab guy didn't think I could keep these little boogers alive. I guess they want to live and I am instinctively doing the right things. They sure are cute.
I am sitting here with a coop diagram, trying to figure out how to rearrange everyone so that they fit. My wild babes need to graduate out of the temp pen ASAP. They want to play with having wings and are quite good little fliers.
I'm tired of playing musical coops, in general, and am looking forward to rehoming some birds.
I have a spreadsheet that illustrates how I can get from 70 birds back to the 15-20 I plan to keep over the winter. I am profoundly grateful that enough sell to provide their own feed!
Honestly, though, despite my griping I'm really glad I have too many chickens right now. I am doing everything I can to distract myself and keep busy. The blues are trying really hard to close me down. The birds keep me from being a real mess. Probably the only reason DH isn't freaking out about them...
Batty, I'm betting the Aunt Sally thing must be stress. Been having my own Aunt Sally issues lately, too. And my doctor retired
Really don't wanna see some new guy. And my GP has volunteered for the job often enough in the past that he's creeping me out.
Intermittant splort showers are better than swimming in splort. There's my positive spin on a splorty day...

My horror-scope for the day:
You are in a deep funk today, but it's not so bad that you can't find some way to climb out of it. In fact, you may be able to work it so your mood generates new creative ideas for you while you wait.
Just found this and thought, "Hmmmmmmm."

Terrah (IRM), may the Lord show you some windows a little bit before the door slams shut, if it does.
Lori (Wegot), prayers for you - you are strong on BYC, but we know you have some really hard hours. Blessings on you.
Boyd, did Dr. Cuervo hurt or help?
Dac, our favorite intermittantly soggy / roasting friend - remember, your mother wanted you to be a gigolo in Las Vegas, but did you listen? Noooooo!
