Yes Ladies I was very careful and worked SMARTER not harder. I let my brain and equipment do the work I just pushed buttons and directed.

OK so here is what we were doing today. This is the green house when we started.

And at the end of day. We will probably be done by tomorrow afternoon.

It's really hard to keep track of two kids in different grades with different skills and different problems; I feel as if every way my kids didn't succeed to the full extent of their abilities is because of something I did, or failed to do, or some way in which my limitations became their limitations. There was a lot of stuff we had to deal with together- anyone who hasn't tried to raise children without a driver's license in modern America may underestimate just how complicated that is, how much planning it takes- and sometimes schoolwork got pushed way to the back of the line. They've got BAs, both of them, and jobs, and stable relationships, and they don't hate me or my husband, so that's good, right?

Truth is that there's no way to make your kids succeed if they are not interested in succeeding, and no way to stop them if they are. And the person who figures out a way to unfailingly making young humans desire what is best for them will cure 9/10ths of human misery.

It looks like there may be a slight chance that I may have opened some doors where I got the coops and green house. See I gave the man my card and told him that just in case he is not pleased with the way things arewhen we are done with the green housecall me and I will come make it right. I also made surehe knows that I haul scrap metal. Yesterday while we had stopped for luncch the mans wife came by. She told me who she was and that her DH said "he was so impressed with me that he wanted her to drive over and meet me". I also gave her my card. See this place is loaded with treasure and maybe if they are pleased with what I leave they may decide to throw me a bone.

Hey we could ENABLE our buddy. How can he get in trouble if new birds show up while he is working or sleeping. And he just can't seem to find anybody to take them.
