im not taking any hint
Yes Yes but think, I have have pics to post soon
You guys just have no sales resistance! LOL
MollyD
What have I missed! TamaraFaye what have you done!
On another note--mentioned Texas to DH--said it was too hot. Mentioned big lake (didn't mention it was being pumped dry)--some interest shown.:0)
Tf,
We were out this evening picking raspberries and it occurred to me that most of them had planted themselves where they got dappled sunlight. Not direct strong sun. Maybe you should try something like that for yours?
MollyD
Hee hee hee, the Chicken Fairy strikes again! Or is this just finding a good home for sweet, innocent, cute baby chicks? LOL!
Glad you are taking them L2G.....now we know their story and can watch them grow!
tf......I don't see no HINT! LOL!
Christy

Good Morning Ladies...
Almost time to leave to go get my wheelchair van down at work and go get my first patient...If my van was here at the homestead, I would be 20 minutes away from her instead of an hour to the van and an hour back up here...LOL

Have a wonderful day!!! I will fill you all in on the details tonight...
barely moved in and already working, huh? you slow down girlfriend!!!
i hope the two hours in trasnist is a lovbely rest and good sight seeing...

Have fun dusty, I find driving good therapy, especially when alone and not in town driving. Gives me time to think and sort things out.
CHICKS are in, I missed the phone call at 6 30 pm so I have to wait until the morning. Poor things get to send a night at the post office. Im so EGGsited
yippe!! just go in your robe and slippers LOL... wamr up your car and run the heater. you need to prepare yourself for some losses, they won't keep them warm tonight, so they will smush each other...
hugs

Hey everyone,
I am TheDirtyGirl. It is an old nic name, because I am always playing in the dirt. Typically you can catch me in a straw hat and in the garden. I love to write, paint, throw pottery, garden and redesign my little postage stamp farm I recently bought. I am into cottage style and love to create outdoor rooms. One room is "Hen Hall", imagine that! Another is a tree house in the forest glen at the far end of the property. there are several more but I wont bore you with the details all at once. LOL
I live in the Pacific Northwest, in amongst Islands and peninsulas. I love it here. We enjoy all our pets. Rabbits, Dog, Cat, several birds and that doesnt include the Poultry. I have a small flock of girls, and a couple roos that we recently adopted that are apparently fryers. A pair of Old English Bantams, Buff Orpingtons, & some barred Rocks. Everyone has a name but until I can take a few pics I will get back to that.
Oh I hope your babies are OK Luvs2garden. I so love baby chickens.
Congrats Dusty on your home!
Sorry I buzzed through the last few posts to get a good idea of who is who, but I am sure I missed much, and until I get to know you all I will have to ask for some help to learn about you all! Catching up in all the threads is gonna take time.
I will leave ya all with a little picture of my youngest of two grandsons feeding scratch to the ladies. I hope to get to know you all soon.
TDG
run the heater gosh it is 5 45 am and already 71 outside. By the time I checked the answering machine the guy had already left. I will go about 7 or 8 this morning and pick them up. Hopefully they will be ok. I will let ya know
Let us know how your babies are doing, Tia. I can't wait to hear!
Christy
TDG.....welcome! Everyone here is a lot of fun, very informative, and helpful. Great pic.
