Yeah, water kills phones pretty good- i have heard putting them in a bag of dried rice helps to dry them out- didn't save my last phone though

I was just checking in on you- after losing your beautiful roo....

Jethro has had the bath and ivomec, next up are Ruth and boaz after the water heats up- wish our replacement water heater would get here...sigh

On Lawton CRaigslist someone posted 200 round bales of Bermuda for $85 each. Says they are 30 miles east of Chickasha I think.

All three does are vaccinated against pneumonia and all their pointy little hooves are neatly trimmed. The injections were a breeze, but I had to use my left shoulder like a jack to get Galen's back hooves finished. One can't kick if both back feet are off the ground. Stinker. I'm going to pick up her feet every day until she's no longer ticklish about it. The other two does couldn't have cared less. They were eating persimmon branches and fruit from the feeder on the goat stand, so I could have saddled them and they wouldn't have reacted. I'll trailer them to the breeder on Sunday after church. I'm nervous, like I was the first time our kids went off to summer camp, but I know they'll be okay.

I heard from the DH of my friend who has had some heath problems. He said, "Yes!" to me giving her some chickens. He's going to build a yard for them first, though. He's not keen on the tractor idea. He's thinking two or three weeks from now they'll be ready to join the ranks of happy chicken owners. He's not sure about having all one breed, though, so I may be putting a small variety flock together. I've already identified which of the Dominiques will go: she sits on my shoulder every morning when I fill the feeder.

-- Thanks for the nice comments. Our DD is a joy to be around. She's incredibly busy with family and work, though, so we don't get to visit with her very often. -- After the sandblasting was finished our mailman congratulated us on the decision to rock the house. He didn't realize we lived in a rock house, and he's been delivering mail to this address for over five years. The gray enamel paint that was covering the rock was like a cloaking device: the house became so drab it was invisible.

The joy's of finding a box of kleenex in a Super Walmart, the equivilant of finding a small box hidden in a city block! While having a raging head cold. I bet it's kept in the cold / flu / allergy isle ........... nope, okay then what about the toilet tissue isle after all they are similar ........... nope, then it's gotta be in the household paper / plastic isle ........... nope, I know it's gotta be it the personal hygeine isle ............. nope. It's in the paper plate plastic silverware isle!!!!!! : /

I think that place is structured to keep you looking and creates the impulse buy of stuff you don't need.. I can't stand walmart.

Thats a good buy if it's this years hay... I have seen so many old pastures bales this year, I know there is alot of blackberry, plum, and other stuff in some of teh "hay" this year. I saw feilds being cut and bailed that had not been grazed or worked in years and that stuff was way past dead when it was cut. Other than filler and fiber it certianly had no feed value.

Last time I was near the kleenex they were also stocking cold & flu meds next to the Kleenex -- I was buying toothpicks-- they were next to the Kleenex. At least the Kleenex get a large space on the shelves, imagine trying to find the toothpicks! Once I found them I remembered why we have been out of toothpicks for a yr. everytime I put them on my list I never found them!

Awww, thank you. I'm not sure about getting any more birds. I think I'm just going to stick with the ones I've got until I do some sort of a test to see if something here makes them sick since the e. coli crap. I don't guess I'll ever know if it was something here that killed him or if he aspirated. I've got plenty of birds to keep me busy through next summer.

I don't shop alot at walmart, but today I am sick and it was one stop (for everything I needed) or stop at 3 diff stores! So I bit the bullet.
