I haven't been on TEG so I didn't know about your families loss. So sorry to here that. My heart goes out to you.

Wow! Get out the Pledge, there's dust everywhere!! Looks so sleek, clean. I Love it.
I'm going back to that homepage, I've got to check that out again! Thanks Nifty, and I thought you only had your mind on chickens....you have Spring Fever like the rest of us!! You busy :bee !!!!!
Hi! I found this place through BYC also. I'm glad you joined us! I'm not from Cal. but from Alabama. I just wanted to tell you welcome. There are alot of us that garden and raise chickens...it just feels nice to gather eggs and fresh veggies from the garden and finish up with a small bouque...
I'm not ready but you sure are making me want to get that way!!!

I, for one, will enjoy the blog. We have alot of the same interest and I think I can learn from your experiences. Congratulations on another creation....a blog. :thumbsup

I had a very nice day. My father lives with me and is disabled due to a stroke. I had a sitter come in and sit with him for 6 hours. She does this once a week. So my hubby took part of the day off work to be with me. This is our time. We visited a new Marvin's building supply store and I...
