Got to spend last night with Andrew

It has been 2 yrs since I saw Andrew and I was fortunate that he came to Dallas this week, got to see him in Tyler on Mon and Ennis last night before he went back to MS.

Going to Rice TX today

One of my groups are having a picnic today. So we are tending critters, then once we put the ice bottles out for the rabbits at 11, we are gonna head out.

Surviving Birds

One barred rock hen we will call Henryetta , our Sexlink Rooster Mr Red, our redcap Reba, and our cochen MsFancy all showed up today! Later in the day our female Moscovy duck Juliet came home...hurt but home. We got her in the new chicken yard with her pool and Phylis. We hope to catch Prince, Henryetta, MrRed, Reba and MsFancy tonight when they bed down.

Police cut up homeless tents

What is our world coming too, when police cut up the only shelter homeless people have? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LrPdZmPB36U&NR=1

Fowl Update

Romeo didn't make it but Prince my polish game rooster came back... of course we can't catch him and so I fear he will get ate too. Murphy has been moved to another kennel this morning. And I am still a wreck.

Heartbroken

I was violently ill around 130pm today and Drew talked me into going to the ER. We got home to a nightmare, my sons dog had gotten out of his kennel and killed one of our cats and most of our chickens, only 10 birds alive that we saw. Drew fixed his kennel and put him back in. We went out to put up our 10 birds as we do every night <they free range during the day> to find Murphy had tore up the kennel again and killed more birds... all we found was Phyliss our Polish Game Hen and Romeo our Moscovy Drake <male duck>... and he will probably be dead by morning from his wounds. I am sick and heartbroken. I loved sitting out in our yard watching my birds. Most of them I raised from a couple days old. All my silkies, my salmon favorelle breeding pair, all my silver lace wynndots, Cher my other Polish Game hen..I have never beaten an animal before in my life... well after the second round I took one of the dead chickens and beat that dog senseless, if I had had a rifle I would have shot him. He wasn't hungry... he didn't eat them... just senselessly killed them and my kitten Lucky. I can't stop crying. The dog is now in a wire crate inside the now empty chicken coop til morning when I can think rationally.

HOMELESS TENT CITIES springing up NOW in America...

WHAT THE F__K is wrong with this picture??? While we give millions away to other countrys we have homeless and starving in our country TODAY!

FREE ROCKS

You all know we are planning an addition on our 16x24 cabin. I just scored a free large corner garden tub via Freecycle and we will pick it up tomorrow.

Wonderful Weekend

Message body

Thanks to everyone that came out. We had a ton of folks at The Sterling, over 40 at SAnc <WHERE WAS EVERYONE?>, and an intimate pool party. The weekend was wonderful and I want to thank Camo Claus, TC, our elves would made the presents <slave rose, karbear and whitemoon> and who helped all evening <Charles and Meghan>. I HUGE thankyou to Miss Lily for opening her home to us, and for Lady Maggie and Karla for hosting it.

This group is amazing and we hope to see more of you in August. Master Cage is checking on a discount rate at our fav hotel for a hotel party. So keep your ears opened.

We collected a bunch of stuff for the homeless shelter and a bunch of food for the rescue. BIG BIG thanks to Tom, Slave Rose, Danni, Alexis, Phoenix Momma and Scrapdog for those donations. Sorry if I missed anyone else that brought food or gave a cash donation for the rescue but it was a pretty crazy night. Grins.

Love you all and can't wait til next time!
