country boys playing bash the mailbox is why i have a po box. that and the fact that i shared a mailbox with someone else and when they picked up the mail they would forget to give mine to me. grrrr
me too Smart Red. every time i come here i learn something different. while I'm here on this thread I'm going to add another strange thing i saw in my garden the other day. one spider eating another spider and he got kind of upset when he thought i was going to take it from him.
at home i never lock my car, long driveway, have to go thru 2 gates to get to the house plus large barky dogs to great them. but when i go to town i always lock my doors. i had a man try to get into my car while i was stopped at a light so i even have them locked when I'm driving around town...
my only gripe with changing from standard to dst is simply changing. i really don't care one way or the other just decide which it is and leave time the heck alone!
journey11 told you how i cook them too. just make sure you don't cut off the root tail and leave enough top so they don't bleed and bake or boil either way they will be fine. and yes let us know how the cake turns out
@ sumi, that mousebird is really cool. yea for your son for rescuing him. thought i would show off a cute little guy on my driveway gate. he was hiding from the chickens and ducks when i saw him
@ baymule..... pictures, we want pictures
@Smart Red, i loved Walter Farley books too and read every one way more than once. my bff and i met in the 2nd grade and use to race each other on the playground pretending we were horses, to this day we still ride the mountains together and both ended...
@Smart Red, i tend to agree with britesea, you need to think about getting a lawyer to protect all your property. bad things happen to good people all the time. isn't fair, isn't right but it happens
i hate what you and DH are having to go thru. i was an rn for a lot of years and always use...
oh @Nyboy so sorry you have to go thru this. i so understand the fact that the money is gone but that can be replaced, the loss of your sense of security however can't. my house was broken into several years ago, they took $, jewelry and a gun. i no longer keep any gold jewelry (they took the...
@journey11, that's kind of scary how did you get him to stop? when I'm driving i wave at everyone but you can't see my house from the road so no waving from there.
@ninnymary basically i do have an interesting life and lots of eclectic friends who will try almost anything once and are glad to share. i think if you accept people for who and where they are they will accept you like you are too. and while i am a hard core carnivore i do like my veggies...
guess I'm the odd gurl out. my sister is the only neighbor i can see, she lives on my property other than that my closest neighbors are about half mile away. we visit once in a while and i baby sit their dogs when they go out of town but they both work full time and are busy with family. the...
ohooo @sumi, looked at that picture and heard my fathers voice say fangs float. when we were kids he taught us that venomous snakes in the water have their whole body out of the water, like your snake, but nonvenomous snakes just have their heads sticking out. do you know what kind of snake...
@Smart Red, i hate to hear about your neighbors, hope they will come to their senses before this gets any worse. and just a thought nothing smells better in the fall then a pen with a couple of pigs except maybe a pen with a couple of buck goats in full rut.
and since we are off subject don't...
