It's been a long day. Did you do anything interesting?

Machined a jig to drill mounting holes for the safety visors I'm making for hospitals....moved and organized food between 3 refrigerators and a deep freeze.....use a food saver to vacuum pack serving size packs from bulk meats...play with cats and clipped their claws....gave them each a haircut around their butts cuz they're longhairs....

God Bless You!

Fuck China.
I made back all the money today I lost on the stock market on Monday and tue.


Did some rebalancing yesterday which led to today's gain.

And God Bless You too!



I love critters more than I ever will people...

Is it the "Moe" style?

I took care of the dead. Just another day...

I know, just remember, don't name them and always dispatch them when showing signs of old age.

Chickens have an extremely high threshold of pain and won't show signs of misery. Putting them 9n hour plate is the right thing to do.

Yeah, I didn't anticipate that I would get attached to the chickens, but they are intelligent, at least as much as my cat. He is indoor/ outdoor, and everytime I go to weed my garden he just lays in the row. Animals are awesome.

Dozed off in the tent to dark side of the moon

Yea, mines about the same size too, so when do you want to get together?? I'm free right now!!!

And of course you'll be providing us with a picture of Fluffy?

Yeah thanks. This is my second one. Happy day indeed

Yes, I researched dispatch methods extensively, but we ended up with a broomstick. It was quick, but very tedious trying to follow along with a YT video, plus my kids being all fascinated. Maybe we'll try hey hey next, she likes danger.

I can if you're really interested!! She's fluffy to the max!!

One of our hens is 9 years old and is still laying. Not every day, but at least a few every week. Her name is Spot.

We have 12 hens and get about 9 eggs a day or so, but I'm not sure who's not laying.

You nasty, freak...okay, see ya in a few

That is good to know. I didn't realize hens could lay eggs that long into old age nor did I know they live that long. Congrats!

Ok, I'll be right over, rubbing uglies is really exotic!

I searched for my damn nylon braided spark cable for my dji spark to no avail. I ended up ordering a new one off of amazon at 6 pm. It won’t get here until Monday so that means I won’t be able to make a movie until Wednesday because I’m going to need the entire day of Tuesday to hone my drone piloting skills.

I consumed about 1000 mgs. of caffeine today so there won’t be any alcohol consumption tonight or any night because I gave up alcohol 15 years ago. I may end up taking 20 mgs. of Cialis at 9 pm though.

Right now I’m watching Little House On The Prarie. Jeopardy is next. I live for Jeopardy.

Well, I want to say it sucks that you can't drink, but congrats for quitting. I only just started a year ago, lol.

Have you tried sprinkling tasty grain where you'd LIKE them to go (i.e., NOT the garden areas)? Also, if you try to feed them in the late afternoon at about the same time (and include the day's vegetable peelings, stale bread, and other "treats" along with their supper) they'll be in the chicken yard waiting for you after a few days.

Cool, just ask for Rick. Rick James, aka Super Freak. You're catching.

I was surprised as well. Spot is the only remaining member of the six little chicks we bought 9 years ago. We added some new hens a few years ago and they are laying fine. Spot still looks good and cranks out a few eggs every week.

I'm not going to complain. :)

Yes, when I get the worms or the chicken bucket, there are two chickens who just don't care. Tonight we tried so long to get them to go up that I said to hell with it, they'll go up when it gets dark. It started raining shortly thereafter and they all went up. Lol.

I do start threads on this forum about drinking though. I live smack dab in the middle of the wine country. Jeopardy’s cancelled due to the NFL draft. Why is this on? I thought that football had been cancelled.

So your not dead?? Not that it would matter, my middle name is freak.

Doing a crash course in goats and chickens. Holy fuck. Wanted to do this anyway, but now we're doing it all at once. Two Nigerian dwarf goats, one is two years, away from a larger herd. The other, two months; we've been bottle feeding her. Got the first round of Dr morning her today..gotta do it in two steps because her horns are kinda big at two months old. Poor baby. Got two rounds of chickens living in a fucking bedroom. The teens are SO ready to go outside, but we don't have a coop yet. Chicks are selling out fast around here, so we had to get them while we could. Animals first then infrastructure. FUCK. It's exhausting. Thought we would have more casualties in the chicks. But we 've only had two. We over bought. Lololol!!! And the goats have scurvy now. Two city kids throwing this together as fast as we can. My little lap dog is SO glad I am inside and resting right now! We wanted to do this anyway, but not this fast!! Holy fuck!! It's working so far, but I am exhausted, and the house is trashed, as well as the yard.

I am making Tex Mex cheese enchiladas right now they are almost done, this is the first time I have made them.

I loved the cheese enchiladas and other Mexican food from Texas so I am now trying to learn to cook it.

I live in Washington now and the Mexican food here just isn't the same, it was actually a lot better when I lived in Alaska, some Mexican guys from Texas moved there during the pipeline years, some stayed and ended up opening restaurants, darn good food.

It's hangover day. Watched the Lighthouse and kicked back all day. Tommorow I might get drunk riding on my mower for some variety!
