Good morning! :frow Life is indeed good! :love

Only one more day until my youngest comes home from boot camp and I get to hug him once again. Seems like ages! It will be interesting to see any new changes in his face and person.

BBH, I was thanking God for how quiet my roo has been and you can't wait until yours crow! :gig
I am so happy to hear your baby is coming home from boot camp!! He is going to look so different you know. When my daughter's big brother went to boot camp he came back so muscular and fit! He held his head higher too. I was so proud of him. (He just went to Iraq...:( not happy about that, but VERY proud. :love)

Anyhoo, yes, I am excited about Tex crowing...funny isn't it? My adult hens have been so aweful to him, I sorta can't wait until he can stand up for himself. Hopefuly he will be a nice roo since he has been henpecked his whole life. That "poor shang"!!

Well, morning went fast, and went downhill!

Kids got into the new school supplies for this year's homeschooling venture... Two whole packages of loose leaf paper, destroyed! I salvaged what I could, but they had managed to rip a good bit of it to shreds.

I was not happy, so the kiddos were put on a boot camp like cleaning assignment, and I only let up long enough for them to have a 30 minute lunch break....which we're 15 minutes into now.

They get to finish cleaning. I confiscated their small bit of money that they've saved up to purchase new paper with, and DD has to pay for a new box of colored pencils since she opened the new ones and lost every last one of them! :barnie So I told them instead of using my money to replace those supplies, they get to use their money to replace the supplies.

They sniveled and cried, but I stood hardened and pointed them on to their assignment.

This afternoon, we're starting school assignments early. Apparantly we've been too lapse this summer, so instead of waiting for next month to start their schooling, we're going to begin today.

*insert evil laugh*

It's another beautiful morning!!!

Got rain coming down, kids are awake but playing quietly!! Woke up to 4 new chicks in the incubator from my 5 remaining eggs.....2 sizzles, 1 BLRW, and one that I thought was a BLRW, but isn't! (looks like a Speckled Sussex BLRW cross! so cute!)

Plans for today???

New chickies in a bator would brighten any day! We had thunderstorms in the night and apparently a boatload of rain so everything feels fresh and clean this morning. Looking forward to that humidity moving out and sunny mid 70's for the weekend. Ah, this is when I love Ohio. DH would say it's football weather.
No plans for today. The 2 older kids spent the night with friends so it's just me and my sidekick Joy for now. She keeps me busy enough and doesn't stop talking. I do need to get to the grocery for some cabbage. Gotta use the one jar of sauce that wasn't full enough to can so I am making unstuffed cabbage roll bake. Mmmm. And I'm craving chocolate and sourdough bread.

Walked this morning, it was nice and cool out there. One client at 10:30, then I have work to do on the studio website. I hope we do get the thunderstorms they've been talking about soon, it's dry as a gone out there!
