Awww shucks...Amy's coming...guess I oughta at least vacuum! Just got home from work...did some rummage sale-ing--yeah I NEEDED that stuff OK? LOL!

So now I am going outside to make sure every one has water....I woke up at 9:15 this morning...having to be to work at 9:30!

Ran out and fedd what I could and headed in--only 15 mins late but I was done with the cooking in record time. Good thing it was a casserole today.

Read everything (all 30 posts) and remember almost NOTHING of course. DRH--so sorry about Bob! (tears here) is he still alive or did you find him already gone? I am soooo sorry! Dam^ preds!
BBP--that foal will come when it's ready...out vet told us end of Feb and he wasnt born until the end of APRIL!!! So I wouldnt worry at all.

JIm--I am glad that whoever told you to change your siggy so it reflected your mood (BigFam? CC?) did so cause I so enjoy reading what everyone has added lately! So funny! OK--NOw I must do the watering and then at least get someplace set up that Amy and Julie can sleep! Well, the new hay IS clean right? LOL!

TerriO--whoisprocrastinatingasusualandreallygladamy'skidsarentcomingtoocausetheni'dhavetodomore!

I'm sitting here being lazy. I have 2 loads to fold. But I really want a nap! I had insomnia from 2-5am. Sucky sucky suck! I got rid of 2 boys with a Grandma, but then said I'd take my sisters 2 boys for the afternoon. It's not that I don't want to see them, but was looking forward to the less boys.

I have another 5k tomorrow in Madison. I'm pretty sure Bl4 has her dirty dirty mud girl run. So I guess it's get out and get active day! At least mine is clean race, besides sweat. I can't imagine all the crevices that mud creeps into...

Oh and I culled the teen chick with the growth on her neck. She wasn't looking very good yesterday and today. Very sleepy, felt very skinny. The growth on her neck was bigger with some more black on it. Poor thing! But it was for the best.

BF4m... I also have loads sitting here to fold and I really dont want to do it either! Must be the gorgeous day. Cleaned the basement, dug through kids clothes and found that since May my daughter has skipped a pants size and now I need new pants for her. Great!
And carol says that the little lavender silkie we hatched out has a ni9ce comb on it for being 4-5 weeks old. Fantastic... Have a dom/marans roo too... gee who needed a new roo? My girls are not laying well lately and I dont know why. Put the wildlife camera in the coop today but one girl took up hte who film while she sat in the box and squirmed for an hour. She is my older girl. Dont even know if she layed. grr.
Wanted to see if either of my pullets that look at POL, went in there. Try again tomorrow.

Friday Fish Fry All...The outside cooker is rockin with the first batch of fries out....OMG...heaven!
Another fry of talipia and catfish....

Doc ...I'm a softie at heart and critters that are close to me are hard to lose at any age....sure am glad he had freedom to be Bob at his best....I agree, may he RIP!

Nope not a hatchery in wega but a prominent dentist that had alot of birds...DR Ostermeyer was well known by all...It was 1974 and after when I bought not only ringneck phesants, but goldens too....he had all kinds of ducks, geese, and chickens.... I know his house...I'll try to get over there and deliver his prolly former address to you...heck....I'll talk to the neghbors and the current owner.
Everyone new doc ostermeyer...He was the Best, and loved by all.

This fish is delicious..better than downtown.

Amy, I use the chillies (cayenne) that are whole and were dried, then I use my coffee grinder to provide fresh red pepper....sweet peppers I freeze for pizza or added to dishes. hope that helps.

Just had a couple momma turkeys with poults in the yard...prolly 2 dozen young ones.

good early evening, looong day of cleaning parts again.. got the oil pan cleaned, dents pounded out (mostly) primed and painted (black like the engine).. second coat of paint on all the parts I painted yesterday.. when we get this tractor back together, I am going to park it and just look at it.. don't want to make it dirty, ya know ? 57 years of baked on oil.. I am going to try a secret weapon on the valve cover..

the new clutch plate came today.. looks just about as thin as the old one..

Monday I am taking the crank to get it measured.. hope it is not too egg shaped.. Ron says no more than .003"..

something chewed on one of the young Del roos last night.. rats will do that sometimes.. just chew and the bird doesn't even realize it.. the trap is all baited and ready to set in front of the door after the chickens are in.. the roo looks none the worse for the encounter.. he will spend another night in the hospital..

3 peachicks are getting too big for the TV.. will put them in with the young guineas tomorrow.. they have a good brooder to stay under in that pen.. the nights are getting a bit chilly.. I have 10 baby guineas to put out there in a few days, too..

Yes, tomorrow is the Dirty Girl at the Waukesha County Fairgrounds. I am not ready, but that is ok.

Dr.H, I am so sorry about Bob..... many

......

BigZ, thanks for your help! I will be able to find out where Dr.O lived and ask around about him.

I think the weather is making me tired...... all I did today was yawn. TO, you were not the only one who overslept this morning, I woke up at 7 which gave me 20 min to shower, eat, make coffee, and pack a lunch! Good thing I am Supermom.....

Off to bed with me, it is going to be a looooooonnngggg day tomorrow. Good thing I do not have to worry so much about the heat this time! Still packing a few water bottles just to be safe.
