The wonderful world of chickens. Poultry care. When raised with respect and care, they come when called, just like most other domestic animals

Is there an item that you have been looking at but so far have resisted buying ?
You mean like kitchen cabinets? Not until the price is more reasonable.

Good morning. I just finished writing my Monday update and I am happy to be here.

"The Grinch Who Stole Christmas"

And here is a new one that I thought was cute. Please don't send me to my room.



Is there an item that you have been looking at but so far have resisted buying ? No I don't like to shop "unless" it is for food, lol.

Good morning!

The educational fairy is going to stop by and is going to ask you to teach one thing today. What will you teach us about.
I worked construction for 27 years and the only thing I have to show for it is a disability check, an orthopedic cane, and a daily question of what the H was I thinking? When your kids grow up, tell them to find their passion, pick out something they really enjoy doing, something they have a passion for. Once they find it and develop it, they will never work a day in their life. They'll enjoy their work, enjoy life.

Is there an item that you have been looking at but so far have resisted buying?
A flat screen TV-old tv is still ok, just old.

Fixed Mom up with "The Sound Of Music" soundtrack on CD-she loves it!

National banana cream pie? Absolute positive YUMS!! Have a super day!!
