As the world turns

My life these past few months seems to be kinda like a never ending re-run one day to the next. In truth I needed this. I needed a break from the constant stress and unending blender that our lives had been thrown into back in South carolina. Living in Texas has been wonderful in helping me find a sort of peace and quiet I really needed.


   Back in SC, 2012 was a nightmare it seemed like everytime I turned around something terrible was happening. Then we landed here on my own little farm in the north of Texas and life has come to a pleasant stand still.

  Thank God for the fact I have a wonderful husband that doesn't seem to mind I am pretty much a lump of human meat that moves from the bed to the couch and Wa LA! I have completed my trick! I don't get out of bed most days until after 10am. On the days I have one of my dreaded doctor appointments and must get out of bed, I usually crash before 8pm. I have been this way since we got here and it is wonderful.


   There are no horrible neighbors that bother me. I haven't had any huge medical scares (knock on wood) and I can finally raise the chickens that complete my life :) On the 15th we will have lived here 6 months. I am pleased with Texas and I really can't believe it's been 6 months already. Now if I can stay "stable" in cancer terms I oly have 3 and half more years until FLORIDA!!!! Airforce willing of course :D

Starting over

I'm starting this blog over because I failed to keep up with it last time and because I didn't really have anything to say that was particularly interesting (not that, thats changed but whatever) Mostly because sometimes I really feel like bitching and I'm sure the people on fb are pretty tired of hearing it.


A lot of things have changed in my life over the last year. We have moved from South Carolina to Texas, I became a dreaded cancer patient, my kids have all taken the giant and always mind numbingly lame leap into teenagedom, and I discovered that once again it is a mistake to trust people because people are Assholes. Unadultered ASSHOLES.... and I STARTED KEEPING CHICKENS FULL TIME:o No more foster chickens for me.

I will get more into how much it sucks to have cancer, three obnoxiously teenish boys, be surrounded by awful people who are the bottom of the shit barrel of "friends" and making a move halfway across country later. For now I just wanna bitch about the fact that I discovered that I'm probably harboring yet another rooster among my flock... I already knew that I had two (Little banty Rooster Cotton and my giant copper marans rooster Cogburn) I was pretty sure I also had a barred rock cockerel but I wasn't certain because he isn't crowing yet. Now I was looking at his sister and I'm pretty sure shes a he >:/ SO  it looks like I'll be craiglisting not one but two of my birds soon. The bright side of of my bird day was that I am now getting fertile eggs so I just have to make an incubator and I can hatch my own chicks.


Looks like my flock is all roostered up, oh well at least we still take amazing pics.
