The NFC B-Day Chat Thread

Good morning everyone. We have sunshine this morning so that means time to crank up the wood splitter and get some wood processed!

@sourland, don't feel alone about the organized religion thing. Don't get me wrong Faith is great and the source of my strength and determination but there is an old joke that I once told my minister when we got talking about organized religion.

One day a man died and found himself standing at the Pearly Gates talking to St Peter. The man asked Peter "can I come in?" and Peter said "sure thing, I just have to ask you one question. What church do you belong to?"

The man looked puzzled and said, "I am a Methodist."

"Great!" exclaimed Peter, "go down the street. The first house on the right is where the Methodists stay".

The man thanked him and headed down the street.

Another man appeared at the Pearly Gates and once again asked Peter if he could get into Heaven. 'Yep, said Peter, you are good to go. What church do you belong to? And the man said 'I'm a Catholic'.

'Fantastic, said Peter, 'see the second house down this street on the right? That is where the Catholics stay here in heaven.'

The thrilled man hurried down the street and disappeared in the second house. A third man appeared and asked Peter the same question and Peter once again asked him what church he belonged to.

'I belong to the United Church of Christ' the man said.

St Peter leaned forward and said. 'See the third house on the right?' The man nodded. That is where the people from the United Church of Christ stay but be really quiet when you go by the houses occupied by the Methodists and the Catholics because they think they are the only people who get into heaven!'

I thought my minister would split a gut and asked me if he could use that joke at their next meeting when all the pastors of the city were in one place. I said sure. The beauty of the joke is that you can insert any denomination that you want and I do just that so no insult intended towards any faith.

Good morning, everyone.

First thing my father would do when the minister made a house call was to offer him a beer. My father had a 'thing' about organized religion - I've also developed one.

:frowGood morning everyone . Have a great Saturday

Our day is full of yucky thunderstorms, so I'm saying trash run will wait again. Todd is funny, he doesn't like storms and is curled up under Bob's desk sleeping 😁.

My children's high school principal probably hated us.... an example of my adorable little imps...
One daughter went through a goth phase and only wore black for a few months. She had a pair of pants that were covered in chains that she wore to school one day. Her principle told her he didn't want to see her in those pants again, so as soon as she left his office she took them off and proceeded back to class bottomless...
He retired the year our 5'th child entered high school. I always wondered if there was a connection 🤔 😬

Oh my gosh 😮

I'm not quite sure what happened to the end of my week but I wanted to share what was over our place on Thursday morning:

It's called a Fog Bow (I looked it up). I have seen them before and wondered. But finding the right words to use in a search was fun.

Our favourite little bantam pullet disappeared and I've finally discovered where her nest is. The other chickens obviously knew - I thought I was getting less eggs than I should. She was sitting on 17 eggs! I've left her with 6 of her own eggs and will have to check on her nest every day so that I don't miss out on eating eggs.

I'll have to look at Meg's interview once the kids have gone to bed. Our internet is on the slow speed and they are both on it so all her gorgeous photos won't load.

Hope everyone has a great weekend.

That's so pretty ❤

She is a paramedic, and she's currently going to college to become a special needs school teacher. Who would've thought? :lol:

Very nice choice 😊

Good morning everyone, enjoy your Saturday!

Hey microchick, if I remember right, you said you're a nurse? How has this past year been for you? Are things getting better now?
