Farm Fotos

Today's post was going to be audio visual, but I learned that I'm not very good at the audio video part of the audio. For one, I speak while I'm "filming" and that is SUCH a drag because I ramble on and say stupid things. I know, shocking. And for two, I can't seem to hold still and focus. I needed a Dramamine by the time I finished pre-viewing. So, no need to thank me, I consider my withholding this morning's video a public service of sorts.

Lets get started...

Here's a close up of Tina. She looks pretty good for just getting up.

Here's Snow's butt, Josie, Jack, Dan the Ram two turkeys, one chicken and a flash of Belle.

Sheep eating some grain that Timber spilled.



A smidge of Timber, Dan the Ram, broadside of Molly, Ewe I, Tina and a creeper shot of the baby.

This is a close-up of Belle after she got sprayed by her bottle.

Dan the Ram, Ewe I, Baby Belle, Molly's butt and Tina

There's Timber to the left, Molly facing away from the camera (she must be either camera shy or wanted for a crime) Ewe Two, Dan the Ram, Ewe One, Tina's neck and Belle.



Pooter and Penny (not to be mistaken with Pepper her blind boyfriend)

*Notice Poo is up and getting around a little ❤



And last but not least, our big beautiful boy Joe...

He's come alooooong way since he came to the farm in July half starved and stinky.

I guess I can't forget Jack the dirty donkey :)

Well, that's it for today, I'll try another video soon now that I know what NOT to do. {Speak and shake}

Oh! Isn't that great about the miners!

Aches & Pains

Maaaa baaaaaaack huuuuurttts!

I think it must be from big fat Pooter not being able to walk and me having to schlep him around everywhere for the last week. That fatty weighs 32 pounds and I think when he's crippled he weighs even more than that. His doctor said he needs to go on a diet and eat green beans, but I told her the only way Fatty McFatsalot would eat green beans is if they were swimming in butter and came with a side of meatloaf and gravy.



So now I'm doing the pathetic hunched over hand on hip hump around the house and even then only falling out of my chair or rolling out bed for necessities like coffee and cookies. Hmmm, maybe I need to go on a green bean diet. Anyway, lets talk about something else.

I can't find a job. I know I have only been looking for a few days, but all the jobs I find are dumb. I do NOT want to work retail unless I own the store and the odds of me owning a major retail chain are slim. I do NOT want to work in the food industry because the only thing I like about food is eating it. I do NOT want to work with old people because so far all the jobs I've found with the seniors involves washing them and I really don't want a career that involves washing strangers. Does anyone know if you get paid to be a Nielson? You know, the Nielsons who rate t.v shows. I'll tell you whose job I would LOVE to have and that's Judge Judy. The only thing is there's already a Judge Marilyn. I think she comes on between Judy and Joe (not that I watch those shows.) I would want to judge regular people though. Like say you got in a fight with your neighbor because their dog keeps getting in your garbage. Or your Mother in law is always criticizing your cooking and you just want her to shut her trap. That kind of judge. A "real people" court. OMG... I've got it! I could get a show and call it "Trailer Court!" This is a perfect way to use my newly acquired Park Management degree! Sometimes I wonder how a smarty like me remains unemployed. I need someone to run this by.... Maybe I should call the channel that has all those little people big family shows.

Maaaa baaaaaaack huuuuurttts!

Look what Wyatt made last night.



I think I'm going to open an Etsy store and call it Sh!t My Kid makes. Who knows, maybe he'll make enough money to pay his own way through tech school.

Underpants and iPods!

I wish I had a camera. Mine died a sand filled death after our last trip to the beach. I have the camera on my phone, but it just isn't the same.

I am wishing I had a camera this morning in particular because Pooter got his bi-yearly haircut yesterday and he looks like the biggest goober EVER. Sonja, his usual beauty operator was running the clippers, but her day must have taken a turn for the dark side sometime before turning them on Pooter. It's atrocious. I'm taking him back in for a do over when I go to the dentist this morning and I'm considering asking for the five dollar tip back as well.

Poor Pooter, I bet everyone in the barnyard is laughing at him, not to mention the two other dogs he lives with here in the house.

Quadrant cleaning at the dentist this morning. Doesn't even sound fun. I still stand firmly by my belief that I would rather go to the dentist than the lady parts doctor, I don't care if everyone surveyed disagreed with me. For all I know you are all just a bunch of closet exhibitionists who deep down inside are really secretly wishing you could wear your paper dresses home. Whatever, I don't hold that against you.

I do have to shave my legs for my appointment today though because I'm wearing short pants and sandals.

Speaking of short pants... Did I mention that I bought size 8 underpants last weekend? That's right, size eight! I was wearing a tight 10 but when it came to the point that I needed suspenders for them I broke down and bought new ones. Who knew how satisfying new underpants could be :)

Maddy got her new glasses yesterday and they look FABULOUS! One pair is purpleypink and the other is a wire rimmed pair. So stinkin cute. I wish I had a camera for that too.

After we picked up her glasses we went to the White Trash Warehouse (Wal-Mart) and got the kids each an iPod shuffle. They were SO excited! Now if I could just figure out how to run them.

Remember when you got your first WalkMan? The casette kind? How cool you thought it was. I thought I was really cool listening to Madona and Supertramp on mine.

If Wyatt were to see one now he'd think it was a door stop.

I have to go shave for the dentist now.

I just wanted to share a favorite quick and easy after dinner clean up tip...
