awwww You know in a few weeks he is going to go back to normal mr crabbypants.

So one more last puppy tale and then I'll try not to mention her again.
MrWhoeverheis came in to night holding a small red mahogany box with Confetti on the gold name plate.
Floods of tears ensued.He handed me the card and on the front was a picture of her itty bitty paw.When you open the card it has locks of her fur incased in plastic with this totally sad story about where the fur was taken from and what it represented when she was still alive.It was very touching and more tears ensued...Hard to believe that someone you knew for less than a month could have that kind of effect.I do miss her though.

Oh, the chicks are so cute!!!!

DVD 1 done. Its all about my sister who is 13 years older than I am. In it I learned a few things. My mom knew how to smile. My grandma knew how to laugh. My mom was an impecable dresser (back in the day). 99 bottles of beer on the wall was only 1/4 of what was on the tables at the parties my dad filmed. Priest smoked in the church kitchen. Bishops hand dried coffee cups while the woman washed Most shocking....my mom wore a tank top and during one clip she had on a bikini top on with short shorts while gardening....who was that woman???? I didn't know her

Unless she keeps being ” thankful”

 

[FlyingV]

I don't know if I should like that or not Janie. Amazing how people change over the years.

Went and borrowed trailer and mower after work since mine is kaput. Got about 1/3 of the from yard done when Haley gets brought home from friends with a headache. She walked inside and puked in the hallway on the way to bathroom. Wife is gone. So now I'm sitting inside witha sick kid and a partially cut yard. Losing daylight.

 

[MustangSallie]

Ugh, poor Haley. I hope she feels better soon Jd.

 

[FlyingV]

Yuck. I feel bad for both of you.

[Jdsgibson]

thanks, unfortunately she inherited my migraines.

 

[FlyingV]

Mr. V is out lining up marshmallows in the back. The chickens will be safe.

 

[FlyingV]

NOT liking that.

[MustangSallie]

That's bad. I only get ocular migraines. PITA, but at least they don't hurt or make me puke.

 

[FlyingV]

Not liking that either. Mr. V has given up his Friday fish fry tonight. He is sitting on the deck watching his marshmallows. Good man.

Pooped. Going to bed early. All that fretting over Stretchychicken has me tired out.

Hope Mr. V gets some .... tonight. Sleep well. Stetchychick will be fine....is she cuddled up in bed with you?

 

[FlyingV]

Your kids will say that some day too Janie!

He's persistent and patient. He'll win.

Nope, Stretchychicken is sleeping under her heat lamp. She's snuggled in with her sisters for the night.

And I am going to hang out with Victor for awhile, he's been staring at those marshmallows through the patio door. Time to distract him. Or get him one of his own...

Later!

Night FV. Evening Janie. Night posse. I'm pooped too. Doing nothing all day wore me out.

Enjoy your evenings, see you all tomorrow.

Fv a little scarey info.
Yes, raccoons are omnivores and will kill and eat birds of all kinds. Chickens trapped in a coop are easy prey for a raccoon at night and they will make all attempts to get into them.

How Do I Know It Was a Raccoon?
Raccoons normally go for the head and neck area of a bird. Often, you will find the head of a bird a distance away. The crop (grit-filled place for grinding food at the base of the neck, at the front) may be torn open, along with the breast, and the entrails eaten. Sometimes, they will pull a head or leg through the wire of a cage and leave the body on the other side. Normally, multiple birds will be killed in one attack.

She has to be hot in that. Is it mink? It better be mink or sable...Nothing to good for Little Stretchy..
