    FarmerJamie - A new beginning

    When I took my drivers test, I had a 1975 Gremlin. The guy from the DMV was about as tall as Herman Munster ( and kinda looked like him also:lol:), barely fit in the passenger seat and opened his window while it was raining outside. I am surprised I passed because I totally messed up parallel...

    Savingdogs-Saving the chickens

    Miriam is the second greyhound we have fostered fresh off the track. Last year we fostered Eddie. When we brought Eddie home, he acted like he was in a house forever. He came in, made himself right at home and took all of Dixie's toys off the couch. Eddie is a big boy at 90lbs. We had to...

    Savingdogs-Saving the chickens

    I agree. Our Dixie like litterbox snacks especially when our old kitty is in a bad mood and lets me know it by leaving deposits in different areas of the house (she usually does this after the evil kitten heads back with dad to Eau Claire.). I am picking up a fresh off the track hound today...

    Calendula - Son may have Tourette's

    calendula: We got about 4 1/4'' of rain. Roy works in Eau Claire and his territory starts in Eau Claire, heads east into Spencer and then north to the UP. He didn't get off work till 11:00pm last night. There were (I believe he said) 3000 - 5000 customers out of power in Hayward. They were...

    Calendula - Son may have Tourette's

    How did you come out of the storms last week Friday night/Saturday morning? We were out of power for almost 10 hours. They are talking about more storms tonight. I slept through the freak wind storm we had a couple weeks ago. Roy thought we were going to end up in Oz. We live within walking...

    Leg cramps

    I was to the doctor not to long ago. Blood tests were pretty much boring. As for hormonal changes, my body doesn't know if it should bother me with pms or hotflashes. I just want both to be over with forever. Otherwise no real activity changes.

    Calendula - Son may have Tourette's

    So far we have been lucky living out in the middle of vacant farm land. No rabbits. Our veggies will be ok till the deer find them. Unfortunately the mice killed the fruit trees (that were not killed by the deer the previous winter) this winter. We are going to have to replant 8 trees (this...

    I have a job!

    The job is going pretty well. I can use the computer but the software that I need to use for a portion of my job is not working on my computer. Tech support was in touch today so hopefully I will be able to do everything I need to do at my own computer soon. It's nice that I can wear jeans...

    I have a job!

    It's been a long time. It's going to feel weird to have a job that isn't a temp job. Come late fall/early winter we will be getting Dixie a buddy.
