Well, it wasnt as bad as they predicted....( for ONCE ) We only got maybe 2 inches!!
I can handle that...sorta. But it sure did cover all that nice grass I saw a few days ago.
So, I have to tell you all a story....
Tuesday evening, I was sitting here about 7 or 8 pm, when the doorbell rang. It was the neighbors boy, and a friend, they said thier mom was wanting to buy a dozen eggs. OK, no biggie...so I give them the eggs. The next morning...the lady from down the road comes over. Now I have been here 5 yrs, and have only met her MAYBE 3 times. So she says...I know you sell eggs...but who do you sell eggs to? I told her I sell to anyone, and asked if she was needing some? To which she replied...no, thankyou, but who did you sell eggs too lately? :/ I told her I sold some to the neighbor, she sent her boy after them last night. Well..seems these boys egged her house.
She has a witness that saw them running from her place. I told her I was sorry that happened to her, But I was unsure what she wanted from me. I guess she just wanted to know if I sold eggs, and if they were brown eggs. ( yup)
So, later, hubby gets up, and I fill him in on it. He gets ready for work...and out the door he goes. About 2 minutes later, he calls me on his cell...and says..You have a visitor.
I asked who was here, and about that time the doorbell rings. Its the Sherriff! Hubby laughs, and said...have a good day!
I go out to talk to the sherriff...he wanted to know IF I sold these boys eggs...how much..what time, my name, address, phone, DOB...Jeesh. I just sold FREAKIN EGGS!! LOL So, he says..well, im sorry your in the middle of this..or at least involved. I said well, I guess I did sell them the eggs. He looks at me with a very serious look and says.....THAT makes YOU an accesory, you can get 3 - 5 yrs!
Im sure the look on MY face was a " deer in the headlight" look, then he started laughing and said..." Im just kidding" So, being quick whitted as I am, I said..." Oh, thats good, because I have MORE eggs" Well, that wiped the smile right off of HIS face, so I said..." Im just kidding"
Well, THEN, later that evening, the Husband of the "egged house" comes over here, and says..." I just want to know what YOU know about these boys, and this egging" WHAT!?? Are you kidding me!?? I just sold a dozen eggs, to some kids that I THOUGHT I could trust, who told me thier mom wanted them! This neighbor kid has worked for me on the farm ALOT...is VERY polite, well mannered..and I would have NEVER thought he would have done this. Altho he DID admit to it. Maybe I will put up a sign that says... " We dont sell to minors"
Yup..its been a fun start to the week...how about you all!? Oh, and to make the BEST of this week.
I am haveing a hard time typing this..I laughed Sooo hard. So, I went today and got feed. When I got home, hubby was helping me carry it to the coops...about a 150 ft walk, through the snow. Now, the snow isnt THAT deep, maybe a few inches...but its slushy underneath. So, I was already in the coop, putting feed in the can, when I hear this loud THUMP! I looked out the door, and there lay hubby, in a heap in the snow! So I asked him, " are you alright?" He didnt reply, he was FACE FIRST in the snow....so I walk over there..and say " honey? Are you ok? What happened?" He looked up at me with a serious face and sayd.. " I fell down"
This had me just about rolling. I was thinking no sh*t you fell down. So I said...." Are you ok?" He stands up, now my hubby is 6ft 3in....and he looks at me and says....DAM, Thats a LONG way down! That was it, I was on the ground, holding my sides, laughing so hard I thought I was going to pee my pants. Sometimes...I swear...he cracks me up!! Im just glad he didnt get hurt...there were still 8 bags of feed to move!
stupid weather people.
