Whoops...didn't get that past the editors. But the word begins with a "B" and ends with an "ard".

To be honest she has fallen victim to a very manipulative breed.

LOL...just got a call from my chicken/turkey sitter. The turkeys are barking at her and she freaked. Told her to kick the soccer ball for them. That did it. The are happily chasing the ball around the yard. Hard to explain that they expect to have their play time!

The turkeys freak my sitter out! My chickens ignore her. But my turkeys demand attention. She drew the line when I asked her if she'd let Daisy sit in her lap for a head scratch! I was teasing her. But the look on her face was priceless!

Your right Chaos. My turkeys have me totally smitten. I've really enjoyed learning about them. I'm intrigued with the fact they can learn, are so curious and that they like to play. My chickens, and I love my chickens, are rather boring in comparison. Turkeys are just fun.

Ralph, couldn't agree more! Still at my sisters, but since it's after noon, I've begun drinking

Too late Ralph! I've convinced her that we should create a signature cocktail for Thanksgiving! Her husband is going to kill us when he gets home from work! LOL!!

We can't decide! So we are trying a bunch of stuff. All to my detriment. Read your signature. ...when are you seeing Carrie Underwood?

Wow....my sister has this HUGE owl sitting on her back fence. Told her she needs to watch her little dogs. Now she's completely paranoid thinking they will become owl fodder! She's too easy!
