For Our Troops......

Welcome!

Either you're searching for some information and stumbled across here, or already know me and are interested in what I/we do. :)

The dairy cow doesn’t ask for much, but she asks every day.
People who are creating wealth with a cow either are hardworking and reliable or get that way in a hurry. This is the way it has been for a very long time.
--Joann Grohman (Author of Keeping a Family Cow)


There are three kinds of people in this world:
Those who watch things happen,
Those who Make things happen,
or you can wonder what the hell happened.
--Captain Phil Harris (RIP)



A few of words of wisdom I have come across:


Choose not to just live within your means, but live within your needs.


If you don't want to be responsible for or defend yourself, please don't expect others to do it for you.

(My translation: Buck up and learn some skills!)


Prepare for the worst, hope for the best!

"Any man who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the AmericanGovernment take care of him; better take a closer look at the American Indian."--Henry Ford

**~*~**Spread the word!**~*~**

Small Family Farms need our help when ludicrous charges have come up against them. Maybe someday it could be one of us on this "make an example out of you" chopping block.

Pushing back (via donations, interviews, getting the word out, etc) and standing up for what we believe in will send a clear message that we refuse to just roll over and give up!

When we know what we're fighting for, we fight harder--Sgt . Gary Stein (USMC)

THANK YOU!!!

Puppy Update and House Work!

The puppies eyes are opened and they are still fat little things! Hopefully the weather will cooperate so they can go out to play (and poo and pee) soon! ;-) They aren't real active yet, so the bathtub is still corral-ing them!

Tigwee is doing better, she has some mastitis (yes a cat with mastitis!) but is otherwise healing fine. I am laughing at the thought of using a teat infusion like we could with the cow! Not like I'm worried she is going to loose that quarter--she's fixed now! (Are they called quarters in cats?) Hmmmmm.....

Had to get up waaaay early again and get Kyle into school for another speech team meet. None scheduled for next week-whew! I might get to sleep in for a change! ;-)

Jared was target practising again yesterday, the weather was sunny and nice--maybe 45*(F) and it felt good!
Patrick and B&K rented a Bobcat to help them smooth out the ground where the old double-wide was. (It got moved out this week, torn down and hauled away.) The new (to them) one will start to get disassembled Monday morning in Kansas, so I am guessing it will be here no later than Tuesday. Getting down to the brass tacks as they say!
To save money, B and Patrick will hook up what they can (water, sewer) and do the skirting.

I'll make the Prime Rib for an "all done" celebration, but K has to make the Key Lime Pie! (Hers is the best, she could EASILY sell her pies!) :) I know she'll hold me to the Prime Rib......hey, what are friends for?? *grin*
