HAPPY NEW YEAR, or back to work, back to work...

I hope you are all well and happy. And by all, I mean both of my loyal readers. The holidays are done and it is only 352 days until Christmas. Isn't it interesting that this holiday continues on the calendar? We have the idle idiots arguing to take God out of the pledge of allegiance and off of the currency. They scream for the removal of the Ten Commandments from the courthouse steps and that no religious reference may be made in a school, but the Christmas season goes on. Could this artificially enhanced event be somehow protected? Could it have something to do with the economic solvency of our nation? Could Jesus be shaking His head at the money changers who have moved from the Temple and now occupy His birthday party?

Enough, I am a happy farmer. My girls are working their little butts off for me. And yes, the really big one was a double yolk. My daughter goes on an egg hunt everyday since the girls are a little unclear on the concept of nesting.

 WTF?!! my jpeg photo upload isn't working...

I am a little surprised at how many eggs we are collecting (3-4 a day) as it is the bleak of winter and I am not adding artificial light to their day. I am preparing my list for new chicks this spring, including meat birds, and we are getting ready to refurbish the green house for conversion to a hen house.

My holiday break was very productive. The kids rooms have been repainted, the  carpets are clean, my Christmas decorations are stored away and I am reconditioning the cottage. Oh, the dog has ear mites again... so I am off to hunt him down and soak his ears. Crap, he read my screen...hey, who taught the dog how to read?

Peace and love to you all...
