Sorry, I couldn't help myself.

They are talking about snow on the news...on the east coast of course. Now they are telling me that we are expecting a 10th of an inch of drizzle today :smack stupid weather people.

Back to you and your tortured life....Spring WILL come, hang in there! :hugs

We have snow predicted for tomorrow. We usually only get a few inches to rarely a foot though since we are way south of ya'll. It has been an unusually snowy winter for us too. Normally it only snows a couple of times in the winter not almost every week. The schools are going to either have to miss spring break or go on Saturdays to make up for all the days missed.

Here in Canada we have been waiting for snow all winter...I mean we got some, but not the normal amounts...and now it is so close to spring and we are finally getting a few inches. It must be rough on you all who aren't used to it to be getting all our snow...:D

Hey I personally am enjoying all your snow. i have videos of the kids sledding and the lab with a harness pulling them at a run down the middle of a solid white highway.

Yeah...this time last year we were digging out of a couple feet of snow. We had a snow day every week, this year we've had one snow day total.

Well, it wasnt as bad as they predicted....( for ONCE ) We only got maybe 2 inches!! :weee 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. :rolleyes: 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. :idunno I asked who was here, and about that time the doorbell rings. Its the Sherriff! Hubby laughs, and said...have a good day! :tongue 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! :th 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" :gig 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" :gig Yup..its been a fun start to the week...how about you all!? Oh, and to make the BEST of this week. :gig 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" :gig 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! :gig

Remember the old public service message.

"Eggs don't egg peoples houses - people do!"

... oh yeah ... that was about guns wasn't it! ?
