I still can't plant yet, between the temps being so low and the wind.this weather is just crazy.

well it froze at our place last night and is supposed to again tonight. I only planted seeds (no plants) so I'm hoping everything will be ok. I heard nothing about the change in weather until yesterday (3/4 of the way thru planting). So I may or may not have stuff growing in a few weeks - we'll see. Our weather is so freakin crazy

When we get that warm weather your seeds should grow quickly. My FIL used to put his seeds in the freezer before he planted them and it always kicked started them.

here's what I walked in and had waiting for me Thursday. Sometimes my daughter is soooo sweet. Each of the little cards had a picture with her and the Easter Bunny and her brother with the Easter Bunny.

and then there's today. I received a call from my mom about 10 am this morning. Seems my DD is blaming me for her latest zero in math class. She told her teacher that she put it on the table and then I picked it up and did something with it. This could be completely correct. I tend to put things up when I see them laying on the table so I probably picked it up and put it with all the other school work that I keep of theirs - however, shouldn't she have said something to me about needing it??????? I sent an email to her teacher telling her to let my DD keep the zero, but I was still going to make her do the work anyway. I'm so tired of her waiting to the last minute because she "forgot" she had homework. She's in 5th grade. She needs to break that habit now 'cause I'm pretty sick of it and I don't break it now it will just get worse now. She and I will definitely be having a talk this evening.

Anyone ever banded horns? I did and it worked great, but now I don't know if they will come back (don't know if I got the band far enough down). I'll post pics in the "Everything Else Goats" section.

At least YOUR DD thinks enough to 'bribe' you with nice gestures before she throws you under the bus! Evil told me she KNOWS she should help me...but just doesn't care to! Oh...and Evil has FORGED my and DH's signatures in her day planner regarding her completing her assignments! Evil child!

Oh Coco, I'm sure my day is coming for that. The only thing that makes it a little harder for my kids is that my mom and sister work at the school and the teachers always let them know if there is something "important" coming down the tube to make sure one of us knows about it - we've gotta try our best to stay one step ahead of the little buggers

 

[CocoNUT]

I know a little about that...I grew up being a teacher's kid! My brothers did all kinds of 'bad' things...and mom ALWAYS found out from one of her 'friends'...it didn't matter what school! I was smarter than the boys....

 

[Vickir73]

I was the oldest so I always got in the most trouble - 'course I kept letting the boys in at night so I guess I had to get in trouble when I got caught doing that

I am sooooo ready for the weekend !!!!! Will go to Hobby Lobby today and get some cardstock to print out invites for DDs bday party on the 20th. I actually found one on-line that she likes so I will print them today and we will spend tomorrow "pretting them up" so she can hand out on Monday. She wants a luau theme so I'm hoping I can borrow most of the decorations from friends so I don't to buy too many. Y'all have a great weekend.

I was the oldest too...and got into the most trouble...but then I was the one with the not so brilliant ideas and my younger sibs joined in

Love Hobby Lobby...I could spend a whole day in there...have a super weekend Vicki
