Don't encourage me

Not falling in love with them is definitely difficult sometimes. We have one that I have an attachment problem with and my hubby threatened to sell her once ... I started crying

That would be hard Riv

Hi Riv, so nice to see you here again! Good job on restraining yourself on the chicks. Your

That would be hard Riv

Thanks, Debby! I find it a little comical now but definitely wasn't too impressed at first

I bought a box of 60 eggs at Walmart today. It was $15.56. A 36 count was over $9.00. I almost choked.

We do not need to buy eggs in the summer. My three hens are keeping up. The new pullets are 8 weeks old so I have about 3 months to go for them to start laying eggs!

I've rarely been called that. Ron is the smart one.

Too Funny!

I would love that!

Wait...I have some duck and other wildlife shots.

Beautiful!!!

I’m glad your girls are keeping up. I wish I still had my chickens. I miss them. I talked about getting them again. It’s hard to go camping in the summer when no one is around for chicken chores. If we ever give up camping, I’ll have them again. With this Avian flu I’m glad I don’t. My brother in laws turkey barns got it and they had to be destroyed, so sad.

I promised myself to work harder on my core muscles. I've been neglecting my body. And, I feel it.

Time for morning situps!

I'm sure no fooling happened...you don't see many little kids grocery shopping on their own.

Hey, any person with money at the register is a customer. And the sale is 10 per customer, not per family, right?

No problem with having enough eggs here. I collected 34 from 22 hens today!
Aurora hasn't been laying lately .... or so I thought

4 of the 19 are not hers.

I was amazed at how cool it was under the trees at the worm farm today. It was easily a 15 degree difference!

Perhaps you need to plant some trees

I can fix that for you. AZ sun will toast you up like a steak on the grill.

I think I would find that as uncomfortable as it sounds.

I have quite a bit packed but now I'm getting worried there's going to be more than what was estimated for the moving truck (more boxes = more money). Might have to go back and get rid of more stuff.

Isn't the golf company paying for the move?

I thought we got rid of lots of stuff when we moved here, apparently not enough as we still have way too much.

I know the feeling!

It sure would look splendid with a pair of mute swans cruising the water.

I've heard they can be aggressive.

She has been known to straighten out my brain.

Whoa, we can't have that!!!!

(the company house is where that A is on the map):

Thus the answer to Mark's question is:
NOT FAR!

That is sad about the Turkeys!

I hope the avian flu misses us here. Southern had a bad time with New Castle Disease recently
