Yes I did ask if you were interested in a star. I just made 2 for ya to look at. I think part of my problem is that this is not a chicken thing and I am lost as to what to make. But as a back up a friend also has a lot of this stuff done up and told me to take it and he will split it with me 50/50. I told him that isn't right and I would do 60 (to him) and 40 (to me). I do have 8 bells ready and will probably take em all. They are all different.
Can you do flowers? Fairies? Sun, moon, stars? You know garden stakes, or welcome signs with those themes? Just throwing out ideas.

I agree that education is the parents #1 job and I agree that there are a lot of messed up parents, but I also think maybe I pay too much in taxes for the education system to just get a SKELETON. And when I entrust my child to those people for 6 hours I expect him to be treated right and respected. They need to stop giving teachers tenure so they can axe the ones that are doing permanent damage. We should get our tax money back so we can afford psycho therapy to right their wrongs and private tutors and lessons. I'm all for that.
And a side note, Red reiner, your situation is one of the reasons people should strike. Don't worry, I wouldn't run you over!
I think teachers get paid plenty, like $70,000 plus a year and they only work 9 months of it. If teachers weren't so hard to fire more would do the job they were hired for and you would be able to staff the schools with the best of them.
X2! And may I point out that some parents can't afford private tutors for all of their childs schooling and I know my son and I would have killed each other years ago if I had been financially able to stay at home and home school him. Seriously!!! I am not a good teacher. But I can get him tutors when he needs them. And I do.

Yes I can. I have a few on my BYC page under ironimagery. Basically if you can think it I can probably make it.

Thanks for the offer but I think I'll be okay.
I just sent DH to town to search for a new fuse. He's going to try the auto parts store first and Wally World as a last resort. I have two Styrofoam hovabators with fans that are running right along...and I went out & checked--FOUR broodies in the coop as of right now. I might also have a broody Muscovy female--or I'm hoping for one because I had someone email me and offer me some super-duper rare ducks (and hatching them under a scovy would be my best shot I think....)that said, now i need to thin out my Muscovies since I finally broke the news to DH last night that I have another breed of goose.
I take it that DH does not visit the bird area often. LOL....
I know the Brinsea is probably way too small for your production...but just in case of emergency. Right now it is full of approximately 14 fluff balls. Waiting for the last of them to dry out and wait for the cover of darkness to introduce them to their new momma. Wonder what Hannah is going to think when she wakes up with 14 babies under her. I looked under her today - I thought she had 1 egg...she actually has 3. Wonder if she can do multiplication.
They are over by the horses in the horse trailer and I decided to bring them out onto the lawn Sunday for "turn out" time. They LOVED running around and eating grass. He asked me what I was going to do with all of those geese? I told him the Buffs are going to his mom and the others I'll be keeping. LOL
Thanks again on the offer for the Brinsea borrowing.
Does it do duck eggs? I'm chomping on the bit to get these rare ducks...I left everything else in the hovabator (on lockdown) this morning. The remaining calls aren't moving.
They were without power, too...(when we lost power last week).

I could be wrong here but I thought in the very beginning you said when you called the guy he told you it was IN THE PLUG !!!
Yes, it's in the plug head. And it's sooo tiny! It is the same as the Christmas light fuse.

That's really great!!
Being pregnant is hard enough without extra challenges! I really feel for you having to get poked with the needle so many times
I really hate needles. Take Care!
By the way, I was talking to my mom (from Malott) and mentioned the location of your farm. She knew exactly where I meant and started talking about the families that used to live there. She's 91, so the families she remembered were there back in the 1930s!
She was speculating what it must look like now and even said, "We should go to Okanogan again some time." I think she's right, she deserves a road trip! Better call some of the cousins.
I have lots of photos.....does she remember the Pine Grove School House? Did she go to school in Malott or Okanogan?
This was a day we got snow in April.
Here is the school house from our driveway:

Since my gifted GFM ended yesterday I got a message that my in box was full!! 226% So I just spent the last hour going through and deleting messages so I could get it below 100%. Wow I didn't realize how nice it was to have that much storage. Maybe someday things will work out for me to have it again. I know I am going to have to drop a bunch of pics too before I can add any new ones.
