Born and raised right here .... parents going on being married 57 years, definitely did the "better or WORSE" part. Youngest of 3 - my brother is 7yrs older and adopted, sister 3yrs and adopted. My mom was told it was medically impossible for her to have kids. Then 4mths before her 18th...

HAHA sounds like my little Buddy horse! Hopefully the trainer has fixed that little issue lol

Awesome!! Congrats!

Thanks... no damage at all. I loved every minute of it!! When it rained I sat in the alleyway of the barn, but otherwise I just walked in the wind, sat in the wind... you get the idea. I think our highest gust was 57 or something. Over the weekend we had 9" of rain but fortunately it was a...

Present and accounted for! I have been outside in this outrageous weather... it was 62* this morning!!! Yesterday it was pretty cloudy, but cool and windy. This is my kind of weather! Of course, there is THIS news out there: A well-defined tropical wave is over the eastern Atlantic close...

Wow... evidently we haven't really had the remnants of TS Lee yet, should be coming through over the next hour or so. Wind is gusting over 40mph, my metal windchime was almost horizontal. Even the teenage roos are in the shelters. No rain, or not much.... so I sit outside and enjoy it!

What our news crew reported as a torndo was a waterspout.... shows how often we have tornadoes. We have had tornado warnings throughout the night, but we don't have any kind of alert system unless you go on weather.com or have a TV/radio on for the *BBEEEEEEEP* of a weather alert. All's well...

We have had 3 different tornado warnings this evening... very rare around here. This latest one there was actually a circulation spotted by the news crew.... fortunately on the other side of town so maybe it will just stay at the bay. Might make for a restless night in a mobile home :)

All that was there was hide, no idea what all he got a hold of before they found him.

I don't know exactly where in La Sunsaver is, but New Orleans got about 13" of rain and it has moved north. Our news guys and community politicians are expressing concern over the Gulf waters stirring up the oil / tar we all know is still just offshore. ... our normally glassy Gulf has had...

As far as I know nothing actually touched down. I work just a couple of miles from the Florida border with Robertsdale and it sky has looked fine from here :idunno

I have 15 hens (actually 2 are still pullets, not laying yet) and average about 7 eggs a day. I find my best layers are the Rhode Island Reds and the Golden Comets (red sexlinks). My Buffs are pretty reliable and my Australorp (was supposed to be a Jersey Giant) went broody until I had to...

yeah we had Hurricanes Erin and Opal in '95. Erin was 8/3 and Opal was 10/3. It was actually not too bad as far as wind because Erin had already torn down weakened branches, loose wires, etc LOL . Opal was a big rain event though... wow it came closer to flooding here than I have ever seen...

My friend found her dog because of a deer-foraging dog. She was driving down her dirt road one night and saw a huge black dog hunched over on the side of the road. Thinking he'd been hit by a car she pulled over (hubby was with her) and they found a monster sized Lab/Rottie mix with the hide...

I have stood corn back up and just piled the soil around the bottom of it, did fine. I 'm not really familiar enough with fly strike or rabbits to say... I just remember reading it somewhere. My theory is if I am able to take care of an animal throughout its life after it has served me well...

Rio (my big Lab) gets at least one raw egg a day and he isn't an "egg sucker". I can leave him alone in my backyard with any number of chickens and not have a second thought... but let one of said chickens get from the backyard to the big yard and Rags settles in for a chicken dinner. Rio...

You having trouble with the heat is like when I complain about it being cold..... no "weather wimp" thoughts here lol I have heard you don't spray rabbits with water because of "fly strike" - not real familiar with it, and maybe it is a regional thing...?

So Tropical Storm Lee has dumped about 3" of rain but it overall it was such a light, steady rain that it all ran off from my one area that tends to get super soggy. We are still having periods of steady rains and winds up to 35mph. The best part? It is like 75* !!!! WOOOOOT! I just stand...

that's awesome! LOL My PITA came from the pound. She is a plain brown/ grey tabby and was almost a year old when I adopted her. I knew nobody would adopt her so I took her. She had what we call the county crud... upper respiratory infection. Hers was raging and took forever to treat. We did...

We are forecast to get about 5-8" of rain from Tropical Storm Lee. Right now it feels amazing outside... temp of about 78* and good steady breezes. I was all excited going to work outside but my very first step onto my back stoop (wet wood) resulted in my slipping and falling. I landed half in...
