Hey all! How was your week? Mine was quiet I guess. it looks like we will have the mother-in-laws little dogs for a longer time then we thought at first. There is still a huge mess to clean up with her finances. But that is for her children to deal with not me. I just sit on the sidelines and support the best that I can emotionally.  One thing that happened the other day when I was at work. The husband let the dogs out to do their business and Lucky just kept barking. First the husband thought there was deer out there. But there was no deer. He looked around trying to find what he could be barking at. He noticed what looked like a big cat in some tall grass. it was a cat alright. A Bobcat. He got the gun and shot up in the air to scare it away. So now we have to extra watchful when we let the dogs out. You never know when something else just might try to get  them. There is also a pack of coyotes in the neighborhood also. So far my turkeys are safe. We are building them ...

The other day at work my brain just started wondering to things I've been hearing lately on the news. I know that's a dangerous thing for my mind to be doing especially at work.   I got to thinking about this scandal with health care for vets. I was just trying to think of a different way to explain it. This is what I came up with. Governments and government agencies are so corrupt and out of touch with the real people.  You could show them a dead fish, dangle in front of their face and they will deny it is dead.  You can slap them across the face with it and they will say it never happened.  You can keep slapping them with it and they will continue to deny it's happening. They can stink to high heaven of dead fish and they will say they don't smell anything bad. So where do we really go from here? All governments are so corrupt there is no fixing them from this point. The gap between the haves and the have nots is getting wider by the second....

"This is not a game." So says Boehner. Well you could have fooled me. He kind of remind's me of Colton from Survivor. If you watch Survivor you know about this guy. When things don't go his way or people don't play his idea of the game, where he is the ruler, he finds a way to quit. It turns out the last time he was on it he faked having an appendicitis attack.  Like Jeff said," Colton is one of those people that should never have gotten off the couch." I'm not saying Boehner will quit. He just wants to make everyone live their life the way he wants. And he will destroy everything if it doesn't happen the way he wants.   When it comes to politics I will admit I know next to nothing about it. But I do have to live with the results of their decisions. Usually it's something that makes my life harder.  I would like to be able to go through life without other people trying to always take everything away from me, just bec...

Watching the news about all of the latest countries in the Middle East that are trying to make some huge changes in the governments the one leader that is trying to hold on to his role the hardest and in the worst wrong way is in Libya. The man needs to go. He is so out of touch with reality he needs to go now. Any one who says he wants to be a martyr when he is in the position that he is in, is really saying he wants to be assassinated. He does not have the nerve it takes to do it himself. If only he would just resign so many people would be spared. But instead he has hired loose cannons from other countries to do his dirty work. Killing his own people the way he is just proves he is out of his mind and or on drugs. Opening up his country to these loose cannons is also opening it up to other wrong people who will take full advantage of the craziness that will follow once he is gone one way or another. My heart goes out to all the people who live in the area. In other news, t...
