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!!!

May 13















The boys had their last concert this past Tuesday, Jared plays the baritone (looks like a small tuba-first one in the first row) and Kyle plays trombone. (Kyle is second from the left in the back row sitting)








Graduation is just a few days away and have been busy doing last minute things! (OK, picking up things I forgot!) ;-)

Jared's last day of school was Wednesday.
His girlfriend decided to 'dress him up' I guess, complete with eyeliner! (Rock star look I guess!)

The weather has been nicer, we did get another 1" of rain over two days. But it is still chilly at night.
I put the three bantie chicks with the 10bigger chicks and ended up taking them out. They'd ignore them for awhile, then pick on the banties. So back to jail for the banties! Sometimes in a 'bug frenzy' the bigger chicks would just literally run over the little ones! Shockingly, I don't have any pictures of them! (yet!)
I let Walter the rabbit run about the yard today. He (she??) is a fat toad and had a grand time. Patrick cleaned his cage--long overdo!
Hopefully Dolly is indeed bred. I will draw blood and see when the time is right. ;-)
OK off to double check my "to do" list and check in with Pat's mom to see what treasures she picked up today for the graduation party! :)
