I have a pigeon guy here... I was quite interested until I found out what a runt was.
Very confusing.
He lives in Hicksville, and owns a feed store in Deer Park.
Everyone stay cool. I went out to Riverhead to pick up feed, and it was like insanity out there.
I went out today, so I didn't have to deal with the weekend tourists.
Stopped at the farm stand and picked up some corn....

And just when you think this GMO crap is safe to eat....

OOH, Twins!  So I go to peel some more and LOOKIT....

Triplets!! How cool is that?

Ack! Don't get me started on GMO'S. that is pretty scary looking I have to say.

Mutant corn. Ack is right!

Still awake at almost 2 am. I was watching a movie. I love to stay up late when I can. It's not often!

I have to confess I'm feeling a bit depressed. Someone once asked me what the one thing was that people would be surprised to learn about me. It's how easy it is to hurt my feelings. Today two people who care about me a lot (I guess) hurt my feelings. I wonder about the image I project that makes people not think about how I'll feel. Maybe I seem cold?

Hmmm. I think I'm rambling. I should go to sleep...

I'm sure they didn't mean it. Don't feel depressed, you are loved!

I'm glad the wedding went great, and that you have fun! Family, and friends are what it's all about! I hope you got back to sleep!

Now for more coffee.

Yeah. And I want to eat that...NOT. I've never seen corn like that before. I would ask those at the farm store where the corn came from and who's seed are they using. Monsanto, anyone?

Giant runts! LOL!! Jumbo Shrimp!! Same difference!

That corn looks scary. Why do they do that stuff to our food. Honestly, if it makes a simple thing like corn, do that-what can it do to us?

I do like the triplets though. Can we eventually find the Octomom of corn?

I need coffee. Stat. My mind is still fuzzy. I hate oversleeping.

Suzanne, for what it's worth, I don't think they meant to hurt your feelings when they said what they did. I would make It known that it did bother you and that you are a sensitive person, if they don't already know that. A little reinforcement may make them think before they speak.

Hey, we know you to be a warm, caring and sensitive person. You have to be with the way you care for your chickens and family. Plus, you've got a great sense of humor. So, don't get down and depressed. You've got some time off with unemployment. Make the best of it. As in all things in life, you take what you want and leave the rest behind. Leave the hurt and depressing feelings behind and grasp onto the positive and cheery. The sun is shining right now, and it's the start of a brand new day.

OK so my son and husband came home with an iPad for me yesterday. It is a lot of fun.I have never had a new computer, always someone's hand me down.
Everyone please stay hydrated.
I wish I was going camping. I'm going up to visit with my family tomorrow .Going to have a BBQ at a lake on West Point property. Don't know if my 86 year old mom should be sitting out in this weather but she is insisting .
Sunday they all want to go into NYC. again in a heat wave I don't think so. Me trying to keep 8 adults and 6 kids rounded up. No way.

iPad, cool. I love mine. The one thing is that on this site the text editor does not work with our browser. You can't add many of the good smiley faces and such, only a few. Outside of that it makes for a very convenient little tablet. Enjoy it to the max!

Doggie + Chickie = luve. Or at least tolerance as long as the treats keep coming.

My brother in law told me that Williams Sonoma now sells chicken coops guys - Williams Sonoma! It's official we are now all yuppies.

Of course they also sell crazy fancy canning jars and bee skeeps if you want to try your hand at that for ten minutes as well.

Yeah, a Kodak moment. Or now I guess that would be a digital moment. Either way, a precious shot.
