But hey! You're getting chickens again!

Yep! Poor little things!

 

[DigMyChicks]

Yeah. That's migration time. Drive for an hour and your whole vehicle will be orange.

Wow!

Yep, they’ve been with me for every one of Kendra’s surgeries, her setbacks, my outrage at her diagnosis of being “mentally retarded” - that girl is anything BUT - Katie’s Autism battles, Evan’s struggles with two separate homes, the anniversaries of the loss of my grandson, my issues with one of my daughters, my heart attack and other health problems, my great-niece’s battle with leukemia, Ken’s constant absences, Tam’s housing issues, the devastating loss of my sister last summer, getting rid of my chickens........holy smokes!! I just realized that my life stinks!!!

And it’s shaped you into the incredible person you are!

Oh, it’s heaven on earth, an Eastern South Dakota regional specialty and favorite. Cubes of mutton, (traditional), venison (preferred) or beef (cop out) fried super quick in hot oil, liberally sprinkled while hot with coarse salt, and washed down with cold beer! So popular back there that even Dairy Quern used to serve it!

Me too! I love butterflies.

Aw, all tongue-in-cheek, I assure you.....not the issues, just the conclusion. I love my life! I love facing challenges head on and succeeding or failing on my own merits. I treasure my family members, every one of them, and am so grateful to the Good Lord for putting each of them in my life and holding my hand when another step seemed too hard to take. I am glad that I can be there for them, fight with them, laugh with them, and cry with them, and that they feel the same way about me. And I love being able to sit down at my computer or iPad and connect with my second family. With just the touch of a button, I have friends all over the world. Now how can that kind of life really stink?

Beautiful Blooie, just beautiful. You're gonna make me tear up over here lol where's the tissues?
