hey RM
nah, you ain't a mean anything, eating that roo was smart. when you have the fights it is best to eliminate the problem. and that is what chickens are for anyway, good eating! :)

how are you doing? hope all is going good. you sure sound busy. Tony is out hunting this morning. fingers crossed! :)

Tony is taking it to a processer and having the cuts frozen etc. No canning for me thank goodness. I couldn't can another thing this year...sick of it..HA HA HA

I am glad for you that you do not have to do any processing of the deer. I am really glad it is almost over for me.
Hubby will make the next deer into jerky, then so it lasts really long, I am going to can it.
I am ok, thanks for asking. I just do not have the get up and go....when I get really tired I get really weepy. go figure.
What about you?

Jerky! Yum

you dont' have that get up and go! where did it --get up and went???? HA HA HA

I know what you mean. I am a tad better this morning. still draggy feeling. It starts to get me a little depressed and sad when I am not on "top of my game and full of energy".....it is too long. Long crud sick gets me down big time...but you know, we survive.HA HA

kinda cold dreary day outside. Tony probably freezing his giblets off in that tree stand. Me, inside with the propane fire going...nice....but have to start working hard here in a minute. Gotta get orders out for soap to the post office.

what time you go off to work?

I hope you start feeling better, getting to see an end to the deer, and hopefully get over the fatigue too. That must have been a moose, really, not a deer! And with a chicken break in between!
Dont you wish it was Spring!
What are you doing for Thanksgiving?? Any plans for the Holiday? I hope it includes a rest and someone pitching in?
Take care,
Tina

QA, I will say that it is either two or four legs!! rotfl

Morelcabin, it was VERY good. I ate the WHOLE thing, hee hee hee

tfpets, The tunnel will end hopefully tonight. If hubby does what he is supposed to. And he wants to get another deer. I agreed that we could use another one, but he is smoking it.

Dacjohns, I was thinking of the work you have to do now. NOW that you got your deer. *insert hysterical laughter*
Yup, hunting is the easy part. It's what comes after that is work, expecially when you do it yourself.

Hey Roosmom sorry to hear about your ROO, you did the right thing. Sometimes we just gotta do what we gotta do.

You sound like you need a mini vacation....or at least a long hot bubble bath! :hugs

How is ROO doing? Healing nicely, I hope! Maybe you can take a day of relaxation now that the deer processing is done and just pamper ROO. :)

I had this whole big thing typed up to each one of you and the STUPID computer rebooted. HMMMMMPH
Anyway,
FC, Yummy Jerky.......6.45am to work

tfpets Big deer, his was....we did both deer at same time. almost done.

Dacjohns, I have yet to learn the cutting up part, I usually am the packer, But yes shooting is easy.

Dace, I need more than a mini vacation.....last one was eight years ago :ep

ROO, oh my ROO. he is my big boy. He is healing nicely yes. But now he is not coming out of the run. I dont know why. He stands just inside the door or just outside the door. Wierd.

JUST ABOUT DONE WITH THE DEERS, LOL. :clap
