After my second surgery I was cut from temple to jaw, I bruised all the way the way to my chin. I told everyone I got in to a fight being a bouncer at a strip club.

I remember that fight. I was dancin' there that night. Tips were lousy !

Way to go! That is a good redneck there! don't hit too hard! It was for hunting...terrible addiction

Apperantly it wasn't a hunting trip. After a few hours and some serious prodding, Jordan finally admitted that he was planning on running away to his friend's house. He wanted to leave because he is tired of chores and having to help with Lauren. He lied to his friend and got this kid to try and sneak him into his house at night. I called the other kid's father and talked to him. Needless to say, both kids are grounded and have lost their phones.

I was just planning on sending Jordan to Virginia at the end of the month as a birthday present. Andrew is going to be there for the birth of our one and only nephew. His mom will also be there. Jordan would have absolutely loved it. Guess he isn't going now.

Sure glad I finished my chocolate milk before I read that, Stimp. I would have choked on it otherwise.

Man i wish i could find some feed like that around hear with meat an bone meal.

Yeah, I know. I looked on their website a little while ago. They definitely have better protein & calcium levels in their feed. Also, I saw where their company delivers to neighboring states including Oklahoma. I guess maybe I should call them & see where the nearest dealer is. It might be worth driving a longer distance & buying more in bulk for quality feed.

Is the MFA feed pelleted, crumbles or just cracked grains with some sort of pellet stirred in?

That was a long time ago, when Macy was just a little thing! It reminds me of my daughter when she was young.

Way back when we lived in San Antonio, my daughter, somewhere around age 11 or 12 bought 2 baby snapping turtles for $5 at an exotic animal sale. She sold one that day at the sale for $5 and then after she got tired of the turtle a few months later sold the other one at a flea market there for much more ... I can't remember for sure but close to $100 for it. The guy that bought it was convinced it was some rare turtle .... I don't know, but I was in shock! My daughter was sure happy. It's funny to remember back what the kids did years ago. Now my daughter is 30 years old, married, has a daughter of her own and lives in town. I don't think too many of her friends would believe all the "pets" she's had & raised ... iguanas, hedgehogs, zebra mice, etc. The San Antonio area had lots of exotic animal sales & auctions and we sure enjoyed them.
