Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

I must've left my car unlocked when I went back out to get a grocery bag because someone stole my backpack from the floor of the backseat.

I don't want to hear any crap about how lucky I am it was just a backpack, or that I didn't get the windows broke, or carjacked... Its such a personal violation & I'm effing pissed off!Humanity never ceases to disappoint me.

We had someone come in one day when we were both at work and help themselves to a load of firewood from the basement. They could have goten all the wood they wanted outside & I;d likely never been any the wiser, what was inside was dry.

They could have had cash and/or guns, but only took a little firewood

mine are much less messy with the new cage I built. Not sure if I showed it off here. I wrapped a skirt around the bottom, and actually need to add a couple more slats at the bottom to help even more, but it’s a lot less dusty now than the other cage was.

Quadruple UGH!!!! I hate stealing with a pretty big emphasis on the hate part. I would very much like to have a super power that could detect thieving villains by just looking at them. Then - bring back public shaming - put em in stocks and let people throw rotten veggies at them. Oh, and make them give back the stuff they stole with a hand written apology note.

We're getting our first sip of precipitation in over a month right now. Won't be much - but the way things are shaping up, could be a scary fire season.

They come onto my place & the chickens won't be the only things at risk!

Yep. Actually, more years ago than I will admit to, I was a member of Greenpeace. Most of PETA was originally comprised of GP members that were kicked out for being over zealous nutjobs. A few years ago those same nutjobs thought it was a good idea to break into a mink farm here and open all the cages. The ones that weren't hit and killed on the road turned around and tried to get back into their cages. The missing ones were eventually found either starved to death or the leftovers from the feasting coyotes. That bunch was literally run out of town, except those that actually committed the crime got to get a personal experience of living in a cage for a while.

Just to clarify... Yes I do wear a red bra... only thing that fit

Thank you Over on the old folks a few suggested I get some smaller blouses. LOL. So had to take mom for a Walmart run and Oh by the way would you get me two Tshirts one a three x and one a 2 x... Cheepest ones you can find. she came back with a maroon and a grey... The 2x fit I put it on right there in the parking lot. LOL... I wear sports bras so they are cotton and decent...

I am still having a big A party once I get back in and the house turned around. Everyone here is invited. there is a hotel in town and camping spots all over my property... I can even bed down about ten people in the house if everyone is freindly... ONe bathroom though. I hope to get the outhouse rebuilt as well.

They need to meet me .Get rid of all the animals. I might get steak hungury .Meat got to come from somewhere .Hockey goalie mask are pretty easy to get .And I already got a chain saw . For the past two days I been making the identity theives mad enough to cuss me out . First told him he was a liar. Then just kept calling him back .Told him I had unlimited minutes and could do it all day long .Today he changed his number and called me again so the cussing started early .I didn't think Social Security employees were allowed to talk like that .That is disrespectful to a elderly person .He finialy stopped answering the phone .So I just left him message after message .While I was feeding .I let the chickens do my talking .I'm so bad.

I like your style, but than again I always have.
