I'm looking for the safety button on my keyboard that tells me, "Look away from the pictures! Just say NO!"

Great job, you's guys...

Them are SOME little cuties...

When you find it, please tell me where it is. This chicken hobby sure can be expensive!​

Off to bed - I've got a looong day tomorrow.

Our little May Day parade is tomorrow; wish us sun!
Night all...

I think I have 5 out of my 9 ducklings sold!!!

We decided to keep the 2 that hatched from Blueducklings eggs and probably 1 or 2 of my grand-ducks.

I will soon have an adult trio up for sale....... anyone interested?? 2 chocolate females and 1 black male!!

There's a Ryobi suitcase set my cousin has and I want: three batteries, drill, orbital sander, trim saw, and a 1000watt equivalent LED work light. But what I really want is two power drills so I can keep a driver bit in one and use the other for drill bits*. I have to see how they feel in my hands, but my hired help (whose name is Heather, and whose mother was my doula when the elder spawn was born) swears by her Ryobi, too.

*I've tried one of those magnetic flip pilot drill/driver bits but they make little dinky pilot holes and I am often driving 3" deck screws into old railroad ties. And so called "power screw drivers" are the single most useless piece of equiptment I've ever used.

No matter what brand ... go 18 volt.

Yeah, the new batteries are light enough I can do 18volt now. My old pair were square battery 9.6 Makitas; I was pushing them past their design capacity a lot of the time but I have the kind of hand damage you get from hauling full 5 gallon buckets from the time you're tall enough to have them clear the ground and couldn't lift the old (14.5 volt? I think?) I try not to use hammers too much any more for a lot of other perfectly good reasons, starting with having to use reading glasses to aim them (I whacked my thumbnail with a 16oz framing hammer, because I was in a hurry, you know?) so my drills get a whole lot of use.

It's probably just as well I have to go to the bank and HD/Sears/wherever tomorrow, I put in about nine hours trying to put the coop together today, at least a third of it being sabotaged by a dying drill!

Ok I'm off to bed too.....

It has been a busy and exhausting couple of days. Had my GI appointment. I have a endoscopy scheduled and then a stomach emptying test.

Plus I have been calling insurance companies everyday. That is what has wore me out the most!!

It doesn't help that SD has gotten on my last nerve!!!!

So to add to everything else.... the twins and I are going to try to find a place to live. It hit me hard when my girls finally said to me "Mom we are done with him. He is a dementor (Harry Potter fans). When can we move away?"

Ok that is enough from me. I'm tired and I tend to vomit my emotions everywhere...

Good night!

I just saw on the 11:00pm news they were showing some explosives found in Lacey. Well guess what the blue trailer that was behind that WSP bomb squad truck. That trailer is one of 3 bomb disposal trailers that I built for WSP. They were built in 2006.
