    Obama Fired GM's CEO........

    Aly, i think it's ridiculous. Obama didn't fire him, he resigned. He also walked away with 20 million in retirement benefits. The media sucks. I know the govt suggested a new leader for GM but it wasn't required for them to get the loan. I do think that the government will soon be in all...

    Bee~ Journal of then...

    Bee--you are going to laugh at me! I have been trying experiments, raising chickens, vegetables, shaving the fat off the budget and everything SS. But I can't for the life of me cull my mean a$$ rooster. He beats me up almost every day. My lovely husband warned me when the roo was small to...

    Day started out good....then I just had to go to town...

    So sorry Aly. :hugs I feel for the little guy in the back. That was a close call. I love the van, I want one of my own some day. It's what saved him for sure. Keep hugging and kissing those precious babies. I love the advise you are getting from the forum. Everyone is so special and...

    Sit down see the light with FIL!!

    I thing BIL should at least cough up half the taxes, that would make peace with your parents and hubby. It isn't asking for what you aren't willing to do and they will understand. I don't know how much the taxes are but it's what I would do. You can also ask if the land can be put in your...

    Pleas, pray for my mom

    Hope everything works out well for you. I had to stay with my mom for three weeks and the nurses were real helpful in finding me a shower and somewhere to sleep. Good luck and I will keep your mom in my prayers.

    I don't care if...

    To bad it isn't Easter! You would make a killing. Maybe next year you could delay your hatching until it's warmer out. I know you will find a good way to make a profit on those chicks Quail. From what you are saying in your posts you have more energy and creativity than I will ever have...

    An amazing quote.

    I know that most people in this country want SOMETHING done about the economy. They want a quick fix. They won't shut up until they get a solution. The poor leaders of our country have to come up with something to pacify us or they are booed off the stage. I feel sorry for Pres. Obama...

    Howdy y'all!

    No matter what you think you can cut back. It will be different for you but there is always something that can give. Buying fresh fruits and veggies in winter is a luxury and until you get your own planted you might have to substitute for other foods such as canned or frozen. Eat what you have...

    HAVE THE RECENT ECONOMIC CHANGES made you rethink your 10 yr. plan?

    My ten year plan went to pot when the economy slowed down. I wanted to move to Maine and live the rest of my years there. I have never been there but assumed I could find a job doing some clerical or other work as I got older. That's out now. I will stay here in ND and tough it out. My...

    What is going on in Europe?

    I studied journalism in college and I am sad to say that most television news programs lean one way or the other. We were taught to remain on the fence, write the story with both sides added. Now to sell papers, and by that I mean ads, most television and newspapers sell hype. They steered...
