Wow day 2 is already over. We got out an hour early because the instructor was tired. I wish we could get out early everyday if someone was tired. If all the non-essential chatter would stop, we could be done with this course in 3 days instead of 5. I am just glad to be back in my room where there are no ridiculous questions, except the ones that I ask myself.

Beth - I am happy that I get to see you too.

Kae - it is great to hear from you again. It really has been quiet on the board since you have been gone.

Monty - I think I would find another vet. Something about that one seems a little strange.

Good! Currently anything besides chocolate sounds good. The instructor keeps putting out candy all day. The bowl never gets empty! I think she has gone through at least a bag a day with 14 bored women there. Just watching everyone snack on it all day makes me nauseous.

Hello everyone. I've been so busy at work & too much overtime and too much to do at home to even keep up with this thread

I just got the great news (not) that I have to work overtime all weekend again ... 10 hours each night. I wanna cry

Oh well, the money I make helps feed my critter addiction. My daughter, son-in-law & grandaughter came to visit for a few minutes last Sunday, and my daughter recommended I go on the reality show that features people with hoarding addictions.

I told her I'd be too embarassed

We've got a huge plasticulture garden going too, and that's been exhausting too, with all the planting we've been doing. We try to plant after work, so we're out after midnight, digging holes. I'm sure our neighbors think we're extremely strange. I just hope they don't call the cops on us ... I have a fear that our peacock will start hollering HELP when we're out there. He's been hollering more lately, since he's happily become of age and strutting around. The peahen has laid 5 eggs now & they are in the incubator. I hope they're fertile!

And we have a new baby fainting goat, born on Friday! If ever I get time and am not at work, I'll get some pic's of her.

Oh, and here's an ad on the OKC craigslist for free puppies that someone might be interested in. Read the ad .... they apparently are good around chickens!!!! http://oklahomacity.craigslist.org/pas/1780988928.html

Just came back from my Zumba class (aerobic dance set to Latin pop music, really good workout) and now I get to haul water out to the coops. w00t w00t.

C'mon, y'all missed my chatty ways. Where'd all the talk go?

I'm taking the summer off since I have Statistics, Accounting, and Abnormal Psych in the fall. I think my brain would have exploded if I would have taken a class after the semester I had this spring.

Woo hoo!

I'll have my associates at the end of the fall, and will be taking classes for my bachelors in the spring (only needed one class for the associates, so the other two are going toward the bachelors').

Happy late evening all!

Went for a swim and although the water in the pool was a bit chilly it felt good as I was hot and sweaty.

Well we have another new canine addition! Wife brought home this beautiful yellow and white beagle pup someone found and brought to her work. It was covered in fleas so first thing was a good soaking bath to kill those,then gave it a good worming and some love and food. She seems to be settling in okay . Buster the male taco isn't happy to share his crate with yet another puppy.

Had my golden comet bantam hen hatch today. She has set the record so far. 16 out of 20 eghgs so far! I didn't realize I had put so many under her.
