Pretend chat 2

[Kerryann]

Sunny and 85 here! We're grilling shish kabobs. I worked for 4 hours this morning so I got paid 1.5 regular pay (so what I really deserve in pay, lol). Some days I'm running customer service AND a checkout lane at the same time yet still make a smidgen above minimum wage. At least I have a job I guess.

On a pet note, Dante is blowing his undercoat and as you can tell, he feels much better. I only did his hips and back so I still need to furminate his neck and front.


Prince, happy (and dumb) as always

Your puppies are so cute. Yesterday the girl at the groomer said she took a whole ozzie off cici's.

It's rainy and gray here too. We got the tortoise garden done today before it started pouring. I was so excited. Yesterday we found an ad for a 10 acre farm not far from our house for a reasonable price. We went and it was a dump The place has a barn with 14 stalls but the way the barn and other out buildings looked they all needed major renovations. The house was built in 1840 something and it was a dump. It was sad to see such an old house looking so bad.

Could you fix them up?

@ Kerryann I watched "This is 40" and thought the exact same thing!! Plus they make it seem like that level of parental selfishness and dysfunction is the norm and I have a teenager and that has not been my experience at all!!

My inlaws are here from NC for the week because Lily & my eldest walked in two parades today and my eldest is in a play on Fri. And Lily has a T-ball game and a violin recital on Sat. & my poor SIL who lives two miles away from me is having a full hysterectomy on Wed. My memorial day in pics....
Here is my sweet FIL & my son

My eldest and my SIL

& Lily doing the princess wave

Thanks Lily met a "beauty queen" while standing with her Daisy troup waiting to go and her new goal in life is to be a parade queen. I don't even know where to start researching "parade queens" and probably don't want to know!!!

Beautiful Jacqui! For all your talk of no green thumb you sure seem to have a beautifully planted yard!!

I have certain things I do okay with, but then things like starting from seeds or cactus I just can't seem to do. Any plant inside the house also dies.

I actually have the same problem! I can maintain any plant started and established outside, but I can not grow anything or keep anything alive in my house! It is so frustetating!!

Frustetating? I have to leave that one. Thanks genius autocorrect!!

 

[Jacqui]

interesting word! With me, the cats make it almost impossible to try house plants. I do have a few that survived winter upstairs and in my bedroom (no cat zones, but also low heat and light zones ) Perhaps you will have better luck in the new house.

 

[Kerryann]

Oh they are so pretty.

I think you should check every safe search feature on google before looking up, “parade queen", just sayin.

Welcome to another week of fun, laughter and sometimes tears. ​

Good morning all. Last night we had massive down pours with T&L 4.23" so far of rain. All the strawberries are rotting ing the fields, and African tortoises are getting mad that they are having restrictions on daytime outdoor time.
Monday I completed Little Ricky's final indoor habitat only to discover I made it too efficient. Using HPL and the latest hi-tech thermo window, now a 100watt power sun lamp heats the entire enclosure at about 107.5 f which is too hot by about 10f in my opinion. Once the light click on, I'll post a pic. Other than the too efficient problem, I really like how it turned out.
Could someone post a link to the android app for the tortoise forum please? I would like to share it for the droid users. Thanks, and happy Monday that's not!

 

[Cowboy_Ken]

As promised, here is the new one. If only I had been into green tree boas…

Wow you guys. I brushed my teeth so I doubt it's my breath, where is everyone?

 

[Yvonne G]

Well, I was outside taking in a new leopard rescue, but I'm here now. Are you still here?

 

[Cowboy_Ken]

Off and on, yes.
