yup. I love being able to provide fresh (and canned) veggies and jellies for the family. I've told my kids that anymore bucks that are born will either be sold or put in the freezer. I had to learn which animals were for keeping and which were for eating. They will be able to learn too. I'm cave and help my sister get some rabbits so we can start putting those in the freezer and hopefully will be able to win at the show with some of them too so we can start putting college money away for the kiddos.

I'll probably order some broilers this fall or in the spring so I can put those in the freezer. I need to make some sort of plan too . . .

how about we each make a plan then compare notes I have thought about the broilers too but I think I will wait until spring

would love to compare notes - I'm a procrastinator so maybe if I have some to push me along it might help . . .

The kids start school on the 27th - DS going into 1st and DD going into 5th - I'm so not looking forward to homework. I've been very blessed that my mother is a teacher - I had homework questions when my DD was in Kinder !!! So I'm sure we will have tons this coming year.

Well, I'd be glad to help with the homework, but math homework :sick hate math - I'm horrible with numbers. The only way I passed my Trig and Calculus finals (way back when) was because the teacher let us make our own finals :hu

You are awesome for going back.

Well I finished my first week of school with almost 20 hours of homework :th I am loving my classes though and can't wait to start some of the projects in education technology. Miracle has finally settled in with the herd but will still try to escape the pen if she can to go browse on what ever she can find. Whitney is driving me crazy with getting her head stuck in the fence 3x a day :barnie The chickens are starting to molt and it looks like I lose a whole chicken of feathers daily. :lol:
A is doing well in school so far I have taken him off his meds for ADHD to see how he does in school he was not on any meds all summer. He says that he likes it better and feels like himself now. I have a meeting today at the school to adjust his IEP wish me luck this part is for behavior.
DH suggested the that we change BJ's name to Elvis since he has the Elvis hair curl on his forehead tinted with none other than himself. eww but he is loving living with his girls and starting in rut
