I'll see if DD will take one after I pick her up from school this afternoon. After she gets over the horror of being picked up by a mother wearing a psychedelic fuzzy scarf....
 
I love scarf weather. however........it is hot here today. Or rather, not hot. not cold. Just perfectly mild. Definitely not scarf weather yet. I need to take my nice big white winter coat in to get dry cleaned before the weather gets crazy. I say that every year.......every year, i fail.

Tomorrow starts 10 days of catsitting for my sister while she and the fam go on vacation. I have to go over there once a day, every day for the next 10 days. That. Will suck.
 
It can be 10 degrees outside and they still run the a/c here

My office was 60 when I got here this morning. It's now up to 70 and the scarf is feeling a tad itchy.

DD was rescued from me embarrassing her; the GURPs group decided not cancel afterschool games in favor of a looooong game tomorrow since there's no school. DD is arranging a ride, since my place of work doesn't consider it a holiday. I reminded her that she is only allowed to make such arrangements because I've met the kids and her grades are so good. She said, "So if my grades fall, I'm screwed?"
I said, "No, if your grades fall I will keep you home more often so that you can regain your focus and determination."
She said, "Yeah. That's what I just said."

Where does she get that from?

I. Will. Feel. Your. Pain. One of my bosses and her hubby go to Puerto Rico for over a week every winter. And I get to watch her chickadee&vole-killing rotten cat. I used to have compassion for the dumb thing, but then I saw her with the dead chickadee this summer and that was that.

That cat can stay in the garage for eons! No more Auntie Laurie trying to play with her and make her feel better for being alone.

Nels, cute birds. See you all tomorrow!

Wonder what Belle's doing today.
 
Alright Boyd, can you please come over and teach my neighbor some manners? If possession is 9/10th of the law, I am now 9/10 the owner of a large equipment trailer parked in the front side of my yard. Yay me. Also, yay for neighbors who don't know how to ask permission before using your lawn as a parking lot. Crazy rednecks.

I got home and called my neighbor across the road and asked him if he knew who parked their trailer in my front yard. He said he was wondering the same thing! Then his wife chimed in that the other neighbor next door to me was having a big tree cut down and that is the trailer some of the equipment came on. How nice of them to park it in *my* yard.

Grrrr. I'd smack him upside the head if I wasn't afraid of knocking his remaining tooth out. Yep. Tooth.

My high-maintenance goldneck POS killed my gorgeous goldneck hen. I suspect he banged her to death.

She was in a corner, head down, neck feathers all roughed up, tail to the side, wings drooping, dead as a doornail with her eyes closed and her beak open.

I had sold them both as part of a trio, pending delivery at the OH Nationals.

I offered the buyer several choices, which included voiding the sale, i she wanted. I know what I believe happened, but I don't expect her to trust soemone she's never met. BUT I WILL SELL THE POS ANYWAY!!!!

I hate this high maintenance POS, even if he is drop dead gorgeous.
 
Ugh, sorry Lori, that sucks. I lost a hen in a similar fashion last weekend. Found one of my original cochin hens out in the middle of the yard. Head down and neck feathers all fluffed up like she was being mounted. I suspect she had her neck broken.......my guess on mine, since she free ranges with all the other hens and about 10-15 roosters, is that my duck drake got her. He has started harassing the hens a bit and i caught him hanging off another hen's neck the next day.

I think Mr Goldneck needs to live alone with conjugal visits only.

I might be tempted to get a big ole chain and some padlocks out, move 'er to the other side and chain to a tree... Then charge them 25 per night storage

i'm not sure if thats her response to my broiled baby comment, or husband rage.

or the fact that I told her what kind of camera I was using earlier while somebody danced around...
