Good Morning Chickeners . . . .

THANK YOU! I always thought something was wrong with me i.e., like I am an introvert, or why do I not like hangin with the women? Well, I have worked on that part and yet have a long, long, way to go about hangin with the women. I cannot shop for hours on end. More of an in and out person - know what I am looking for - nope, thats not it - and out. Drama - OMG! the drama. I remember working with eight women for a number of years. It kind of broke me in to the fear of being around them. But that quiet (because we were in an office) scream when something excited happened. Ouuuweeee. Whats that about? I really appreciated this conversation.

Oh - I took a piddely little job in the local grocery store deli to get away from the DH. Part-time. Of course, many women. I kept my mouth shut and listened and watched. After about a year the two witches started to ask my opinion on people, happenings etc. I told them that they did not pay me enough to have an opinion. Then they would laugh with me, ***** to me about someone else (who cares?) and if something was not real kosher that they were doing or saying I walked away. So I have worked with women. I just prefer to work alone also.

Why did ***** replace my word of talk? talk to me about someone else is what I typed. Who does that replacement? H m m m m m

In my professional career I have worked with hundreds maybe thousands of different coworkers. Females have their idiosyncrasies but so do males. Males seem to have a more consistent mind set and behavior pattern and are not as fragile as females in most cases. Many of the females are more pleasing in appearance to my eyes.

Ralphie, it is difficult to believe that Judy would call you out for using the bath tub to clean incubator items ? She does know who is in charge though, right ?

Perhaps you should consider legal action against the power company. It was negligence on the part of one of their employees that your leg of the grid was not turned back on after they repaired the general problem. The value of the chicks lost is one thing, the mental pain and suffering is of much greater significance !!

BC, that is a beautiful White Pine. Are you sure that removing it is the best option ? You could climb to the top and install an Eagle deterrent ! It would definitely make some select lumber. Be sure to let me know when Jerry is going to put those logs through his mill. A late evening visit might be in order then.

Hope spring will return soon, as the snow and cold is getting old. We did however dodge a significant snow fall on top of the hill here. We got about 1/2 inch on Monday, but at the bottom of the hill in West Duluth they got over a foot.

In my profession the majority was women, catty, bubbly, bimbos. LOL the older I got the harder it was for me to keep my mouth shut, good to be done with that crowd.

Maybe we could help Ed stack the lumber on my trailer as he cuts it...Or better yet I will lend him my trailer so he can easily move it from BC's back to his land.....

Then we can visit him...No sense breaking our backs loading the wood..

When I was little on the resort I definitely had more fun building forts with the boys versus dolls with the girls. We ere outdoor kids in the summer for sure though too.
Nursing you get alot of women in the work place. Uff da is all I can say. Best nursing job was in St. Cloud with a male nurse as my partner for a dr. In a specialty. We laughed all day long. Gosh it was fun. But then other clinic jobs up here... it could be quite catty.

I think I'm a person that can work alone also-- or I prefer alone time. That's why I like crafting. It's me time. DD is the same. She will pick a quiet weekend at home vs. having friends over. Lol.

I so love my crafting and chickening! alone...

Really pretty sunrise here this morning, Ralphie did you catch that i used the right word.

I thought you like mushrooming time with us!  I am so hurt to find you would rather be alone....

I was nervous about it but it turned out just fine didn't it? Lol. I liked having all those mushroom books handy. Lol.

Rofl. Oh gosh Ed you crack me up with your women stuff. I love it. Lol.

The tree is getting worse and worse each year. I hate losing that one as I do love the fresh smell from her out there and the soft sounds when the wind blows. But when all the eagle crap in the world is not fertilizing it back to life and causing headaches down at the coop its time to cut the d*** thing down. I might be able to drum up some more ice tea if your wanting to help Jerry run his mill.
