I am gonna try to get chores done and rest with herb tea,, I feel chest congested like a pnuemonia coming o, hot, headachey, no energy..have the gate open and must stay up to sell eggs though, customers have not been here since X-mas ever...I think they all went away for the holidays.
Hope everyone is OK...But yes CR the negativity can where you down and sorry if I snapped at anyone. And my wheelbarrow has a flat tire !!!
Darn it.

Sometimes things dont ever seem to be quite right. I'm sorry your kids are at war. My older siblings are always fighting, usually I am the peace keeper. But my sis in law decided to target me and my family over this past summer, so I told them "I will not sit here and listen to lies being told about me. That I wish her and my brother the best, that I love them, but that I am also done with my sister in laws drama. Drama is SO over rated, and I am done with it all. The way I see it, is when THEY are ready to grow up a bit more, then they can come to me, and we can be a big disfunctional family again. I miss my niece and nephew, but even they are not worth all the drama and stress that their mother causes. It sucks to say that and know it is true. But short end of the stick is, I am threw being the peace keeper for my family. My poor enlarged heart can't take all the stress and anxiety.

So I may not understand your exact situation, but I do know what family drama can do to someone.

Worry about yourself, take care of yourself, and love your kids indevidually, and unconditionally. No matter what their differences are.

That is the absolute truth !
And try so hard to not be snappy but my DD pushes and pushes and then does a 180 and is so nice and then a 180 she is seething and cruel again...she said yesterday she would love working with animasl...so I said why not take some animal husbandry or vet tech classes then ?
And you can come out here and live but we have no Community College here,,then the next day she says I will never come live out there with you you are so selfish and I would stay here with my friends instead of living out on the farm and be a mean old pig with no firends like you.
(WOW ! Did she just cash the checks i sent her for $150 ? Did she just sell the car I gave her ?) What the ??
Oh well, I try to put on my happy face and answer, why yes the animal husbandry sounds fun, I bet you would like it, then she writes back, that she loves animals, and birds, always has.
And gets lost remembering the turkeys she raised when she was a kid still living at home with me.
I dunno, it is like she is a split personality or something, but there is no need for me to pass on the negativity to others. Later guys...

CR, what is the difference between Chuck Eye and Eye of Chuck? Is Chuck Eye also sold under another name? I don't think I've seen it in the store.

Get some rest, and let the kids worry about themselves for a while. I hope you feel better soon.

Hubby is in a really, really bad mood because of losing the lawsuit. He's worried about how much the other sides attorney fees are going to be, and he's creating friction with my parents and my older son. It's very wearing and wearying. I'm ready to jump in the car, and run away for a few days. I have problems with SAD this time of year. I worry about the money myself, and I'm about at the end of my rope.

Chickielady! I'm fixing my truck!

I just ordered the full Gasket set, should be in tomorrow. I finally got ahold of someone who is willing to help me get it done! And all I have to do in return is help him do it! What a relief!

Well, I'm going to be taking a trip up to Target today... The camera that Santa brought for my Nathan is a DUD (cheap $25 camera). Will have to trade it back in, I guess... Didn't want to go yesterday... I'm sure the stores were crazy yesterday. lol

Hey guys,.. I have some extra white SG cockerels I am selling at $10 apiece. If there is any interest around the Seattle area I can bring them with me next week. Very nice birds, just too many boys (WAY too many boys).
