Potential Farm Revolution?

Good Morning...or is it ? Does it happen to any other ladies. When I went to bed I looked passable...well, ...ok (with one eye open and one already asleep) I woke up this morning, (other eye open, 2nd eye wishing it was still asleep) went into the bathroom and there was another wrinkle, I swear it wasn't there yesterday and I didn't do that much smiling yesterday so I cant even call it a "laughter line ". Greg says I have to grow old gracefully,...I'm REALLY trying !!! At this rate makeup will turn into body putty !! Greg talked about putting his "BOSS" T shirt on this morning, I had to do a really quick laundry roundup ( and it wasn't even dirty !), he puts that shirt on and I'm in trouble !! I know there was a revolution against the Brits in 1776 but there will be no drowning tea in the pond on our Ranch. Must remember to put the flag(S) up today.smile. I'm a bit concerned this morning (other than the wrinkle thing) yesterday we opened the door on the chicken shack (we have two chicken houses, the old one affectionately known as the "shack", the new one,  grandly known as the "Roost with a view"). Lots of little feathered heads peeked out for their first view of the world and by pm yesterday most were out exploring. My concerns multiplied overnight, what if Tiger Shy and Lucky fancy a KFC, what if Rocky Racoon and his family that Lisa feeds up the hill fancy a change from cat food...I never thought about the weather. MJ on Fox woke me up with a start...FREEZING. Oh no, mass chicken genicide in the shack, and it will all be my fault, I thought they would enjoy the sunshine. I'll let you know tomorrow. Oh, before I go, quick mention to family, all my sons (3) called me yesterday. One when I was picking a horses feet (BIG horse) one when I was mucking out (try that with one hand, dont multifunction very well) and one when I was indisposed. Always happens but I love you boys, thanks. Bye for now, leave me a comment if you get a moment, I'd love to hear how we are doing .

Well, this is a great idea, Maureen and Greg too, of course.....but Maureen talking to the nation haha !! Fantastic.
I of course have first hand knowledge and the changes that have taken place over the last 5 years and also physically had a hand in it ....blood sweat and tears( well, no not tears). You have both had willing volunteers to help you make the changes to such a wonderful place....Mal + my "home from home" and the place we aspire to retire to. And it's all due to the vision and enthusiasm along with genuine love for their animals big and small. Love you both Annie and Mal xoxo (Maureens' other better half twin - haha !!)
