I'm awake. I don't wanna be. I'd be happy if I didn't have to go sit in the car again in about 15 minutes because J forgot his lunch, again, and asked if I could bring it to him.
Then I'm gonna go harass my chickens for a while, before I head over to P&B's place. I think I'll be alright.
Actually I got another cell phone. Had one years ago and I just couldn't see paying for something that I diodn't use, in two years I had used about 15 mins of air time. This time I got a trac-phone as they didn't have them when I first got a phone.

You probably got there a little late, then. Chicks sell early, right after most of the equipment (although that can be interspersed throughout the night depending on Jerry's instincts) and eggs.
But there haven't been a lot of chicks in general. It isn't quite the season yet for most people, I don't think. Spring and summer there will be lots of them.
I got their around 6:00pm but I didn't got up all the way to the auction table - it was quite busy and I was prob more in the way then not. I did see some baby goats (which my nieces fell in love with).
Last night was a research run for me. It's been 15 years since I seen some chickens up close. Like I said, I'm looking to just have a little flock of maybe 5 but I want to pump my head with as much info as I can before I just go buy some chicks.
I might have to go with some Bantams - Although I bet their flighty as heck. I'm having trouble deciding - fat birds that can't fly good, smaller birds that can fly south for the winter
I do know I'll be prob buying chicks from sjarvis00 as she's been nice enough to offer and help me. Either way...I'm
P.S.
Blanchard Aution has some of the best popcorn in the state.

My mom finally got a cell phone, she got one of those trac-phones too. My dad still doesn't have a cell phone. He hasn't carried anything since he was forced to use a pager 18 years ago. He hates them.

Ugh stay away from cell phones as long as you can. It's not good for the heart and soul to be so connected to society. I own my own business and have to have one...but sometimes I just have to turn it off or "forget" it at the house.
One of the many reasons I just bought my 1st home and it's in the boonies. When I retire, I'm throwing away all electronic devices that people can reach me on.
When I am out of pocket I am just gone, and relaxed and enjoying the peace and quiet.
When we make trips Teva has both her name brand phone and her Trac-phone with her. The one that always works is the Trac-phone. Plus no monthly charges.
When I worked in Enid I had a comopany radio. If it wasn't so expensive at the time I'm sure the boss would have given us phones. Our radios were called line-of- sight. If the antennea on the truck had a clear line to the base you could talk to the office. I could talk to the office from overpasses in So. Louisiana.

But if you do that you can't be here. Better keep the computer!!
