All the boys and I have been making lunches for the clients. They add up their wealth and got some more lego-robotics for themselves about 2 weeks ago. It keep them busy and learning. Their father is soon to put them to work in the shop!! lol They know about suspention, gear ratios, U joints, independant suspention, live axel suspention, locking differentials, and a lot of stuff that goes above my head. ~Days are too long and years too short~
About my chickens again, their names: Red Rascal- soon to get in the pot, because she is a bully- Reddy, Raven, Whity, Lucky, Bob Funny, Roosty- soon to head the pot, since I do not keep boys, I have enough with 5 in the household, lol-, Bob Three (all Bobs are Jonathan's, pretty original ah) Baldy, Chickdeenee (as in the one that always was getting out of the box where we kept them) and two baby araucanas that we call Chicky, and Tiny.
There have been bears around our properties for years, but only Black Bears, so I have not worry too much, since Moka Berry, our powerful dog can fight them... hemm.. or bark her head off and run away, and do it again and again.... wake up the whole neighborhood, made Dennis quite angry, and therefore run the bears away ~Fighsty girl, she is!!~ But now my neighbor has seen a Grizzlie around, and Moka is getting old to fight a Grizzlie, so our 14 chickens are going to go down to 7 or 8.
It is so hard to make a choise about who to keep since they are all individual to us. This spring we got 6 more chickens for a project for the boys, to have eggs of different colors. We have, differente shades of brown, white and green, but with the new species we are hoping to get chocolate brown and blue eggs. But who to put in the pot or fridge?? ~Too many choices that it is hard to focus~ One thing that makes the choise even harder, is that there is bear danger only 4 to 5 months of the year... so for 7 or 8 months we live care free of bears, .... but we will be eating a whole lot of eggs this winter if I keep them 12. ~Accepting recepies that use lots of eggs, here~
Frisbee.... but not only frisbee, but ultimate frisbee! The big boys began to do U. F. since Joel, our Portland nephew, was here last summer... he was a hit among the girls (he is a hit with his aunt too, he is such a jewel of young man!!) So he was acepted in all type of activities even if he would bring his small cousins along. So, this year, after Gospel Meeting, on Sundays we have to continue the tradition and here I am taking them to the park to meet teenagers that are delighted to have such good sports.... Last year was only Alexander and Nikolas, but this year, even youngers have been accepted.... perhaps it helps that they have to come along, and I bring food. Benjamin is being such a good player too, but Jonathan is often times coming to tell me that they do not let him catch it... he is only 6... the boys come and say that he throw the frisbee to the wrong team... lol ~Keep the boys busy with the right type of people and activities~
Better do a 3rd part, the pad is going crazy.~~~~~~~
