    Lupin Farm ~ Updated photos of the goat pen in progress

    I just finished drying my low-top converse shoes and was ready to put the laces back in. Laces are missing. No biggie, I'll take the laces out of the pink ones.. THEY haven't been PEED on yet. WRONG. Now, Accio has chronic cystitis but he's an indoor/outdoor kitty now by his own making and for...

    Where should small dogs live?

    Our 4 Mini Poodles live indoors all winter long and go out in a run during the day in the summer, and are crated at night.

    opinions?

    :/ Unfortunately my brother in recent years has adopted my dads attitude and believes that the work around the house is for the women. He's going to have a heart attack when I go to school ;)

    opinions?

    My dad was raised by a strict Welsh woman (My nan was widowed young and raised both my dad and my uncle by herself during a time where it was not at all common for a woman to a) own her own house (she did), b) be a single mother, and c) have a reasonably good paying job with benefits and pension...

    opinions?

    I know we may not get on all that well BUT I am the child of a gigantic 4 year old, my brother and I were raised by my mum and my dad is, almost exactly as you have described. My mum loves my dad very much but he can be a complete idiot sometimes and really had absolutely no interest in how we...

    Well, this is sickening.

    hehe Wifezilla, if we can get away with it we use Splenda. I have my coffee with milk and sweetener ;) but never my tea. Tea has to be milk and sugar otherwise it tastes funny (oh man, i'm so english its ridiculous).

    What is with lumps/bumps/abscesses lately? Geez. That other thread is mine. And I guess so is the one posted by gromit, seeing as that refers to the same goat as mentioned in my thread (gromit = my mum).

    Facelifting carpeted "construction stairs"? (new title, old thread)

    Mitre saw is TOTALLY worth it. I could use one of those by the time I was 10 years old XD I was raised with power tools by my MUM. You should go into home depot into the stock trim section and see if you can find some sort of flat trim to double or triple up and nail into there (glue and nail if...

    Lupin Farm ~ Updated photos of the goat pen in progress

    Mum made a kid creep! Its very small mostly because there isn't a lot of available corner space in the goat shed and she had to make it out of materials we have hanging around.. like the pickets. I'm hoping the pickets are incentive NOT to jump it, she left a small "kid door" near the bottom for...

    As a side note, does anyone know if I can enter the US ... not on my Canadian passport? I have dual-citizenship Canadian-UK/EU and I haven't had a Canadian passport in a while but I have my English one up to date and all that and a Canadian birth certificate. I know UK residents come to Canada...

I was going to wait until August to start looking but I really need to pay off my credit card before I go to school :) Its not a lot, considering how big some debt can be but its too big for my comfort. I spoke...

    getting very frustrated looking for a dog to adopt

    We had a black and a yellow. Samari (yellow) and Hwin (black). Hwin later found a new home on a ranch in Saskatchewan as a hunting dog, she was not meant for the city life! And Samari was euthanized after an injury/health issue. Samari was smart as heck, loyal, learned everything quick as...

    Lupin Farm ~ Updated photos of the goat pen in progress

    Yeah. Mione is a pretty submissive goat. She does everything Cissy tells her to do and I think April's issue is that she is young and curious (though timid, she is from a commercial herd and thus was not handled as much as say a backyard herd would be, but no big deal with time she'll come...
