Well, again dropping in for a quick sec to say hello......

Life is hectic. 11 year old daughter is growing too fast.

17 year old son is all grown up (or so he thinks).

Trying to finish coops before snow flies. We will need LOTS of snow in the mountains to get all these fires out. Very scary.

Took this video to send to CL so I thought I could share here too. This is of the turkeys I bought from her this spring. They are almost all grown. Kind of long. I hope the talking on it is where it is suppose to be....Enjoy or ignore....doesn't matter. By the way this is Tom in the "thumbnail". We are original on names here. Our "back up tom's" name is "B.U.T." for - you guessed it "Back Up Tom". ...

OH WARNING!!!!!! One turkey bites the husband as he is handing out treats and SWEARS - VERY AUDIBLE. So you want to be aware of that in case of kids in the room. I would cut it out, but I am still learning this camera/video editing stuff.

Off to see CL -- back in 9 hrs

Filling back pack with projectileable cackle spackle and sneaking through the woods to wait along the hiway to watch for VF's loaded with to pass by

passing by.

Dang if we had figured this out soon enough maybe VF could have picked up some bee hive parts to relay to CL. Oh well I will get it to her before spring.

Speaking of I think I better scratch the plans of my last post and go try to pull the honey box from my hive. If nobody has seen or heard from me in say an hour or so you will know that I may have taken too many stings!!!

OK all went well. The girls were very well behaved this morning. Although I didn't take any chances. I wore extra clothing under my suit (I normally get too hot to do that), the weather was very cool so the bees stayed in cluster and I took no chances I smoked the hive very heavy. I don't like to use smoke as it really messes the bees up and sets them back about 3 days in production.
That's pretty much all the good news. Oh and I took 0 yes ZERO stings !!!!

And now for the sad news. There will be no little pots of gold this year. There isn't even enough for a little taste !!!

Just hoping I can help them survive the winter

I've done that before. oops! Glad you still got it though. I'm just so thankful for BB and the great produce we get every week. It causes us to be creative and I love that! We are so stocked with food you won't even believe it. I can't wait to make some amazing yummy meals this week

Do you get 1 or two portions? I'll probably see how it goes for a few weeks, but I might up it to 2.

Some of you may find this talk interesting.
Those of you who use gmail can probably relate to the adds on the side of your page.
It's a dangerous road the net is going down.

I had a "bear bell" that my husband ordered from Amazon follow me around for a while.

That was kind of strange.

After a long day at work I came home to find my Silkie roo (in my avatar) dead. I am not happy to say the least. What a craptastic way to end the day!

I'm so sorry!
