For Our Troops......

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!!!

If I hear this one more time.......


In reference to our Military and where most of those folks are going in the world.
IRAQ they are pulling people out of, but adding yet MORE troops to Afghanistan.

Soooooooo if I hear one more time: "I thought we were getting out of there"---people are referring to Iraq, and obviously NOT paying attention to anything else.


As my dad says: You want me to draw you a map and color it in fer ya too?!? ;-) So I'm a butthead--here's a map, and note what is where half way around the world. (Or on the other side of the world, however you want to put it!)

This week has gone by fast, hard to believe it's November already. The weather is colder, and we even had rain and sleet and sleet wrapped in snow on Wednesday. It was slick driving to work. It all melted off before dark. It was weird!

Jared is an alternate for Dog Handling, and he's getting promoted. I haven't had a chance to talk to him much to get more details.

Kyle is helping with the play at school, and is finally catching up on some sleep today. School, work, school activities, (band too), practising for Military Band, doing Military stuff and his girlfriend keep him busy these days.

Pat gave his cold to me, then I must of gave it back, then he gave it back again to me! Or else mine has just hung on longer than his.......but I'd still like just to blame him! LOL Actually with the weather changes and drier air has many people sniffling and their sinus' driving them nuts. Count me in on that latter statement!!

A couple of my chickens look bald and scruffy--they are molting. Today I'm off to finish taking down electric fence for the winter time and do other odd ball things and call Jared and then both my folks and Pat's folks to update them on what's what with him. Never a dull moment it seems........
