so she is real, not perfect

I read the story today that Sarah Palins 17 year old daughter is pregnant and that her husband was arrested in 1986 (that is how many years ago) for drinking and driving. First, she would not be the first person in the country to have a pregnant daughter. Bill Clinton can have an affair in office and still be a keynote speaker at the Democratic convention. Please!!!! It seems to me that people are really going out of their way to "dig up the dirt" on Sarah. It's her teenage daughter, have some respect! And a 1986 DUI ? Come on! That was 22 years ago! Please!!! Get real! So Sarah does not come from a spotless family. That would make her what? Oh, like us?

Well, I think Bill speaking at the convention has nothing to do with having or not having a squeeky clean record...it is a matter of "star power" he brings money and big name followers to the race- comparing the two isn't even close to being the same. We KNOW Palin's issues now- we get to choose if we want someone with her background in office- we didn't have that luxury with Bill- he commited his sins after he was voted for......can Palin do good for our country given her daughter's circumstance or her husbands stupid moment in time- sure, it is possible- I think having a pregnant 17 year old would make me want to be available to her to support and nurture her through this difficult time- but that is me and I don't claim that Palin should parent the way I would.......I do think though that she is sending her daughter out to the wolves by running for VP right now......I have a feeling she will end up only doing one of them well (helping daughter, being VP).....

Olivia is born

My niece had a beautiful baby girl named Olivia Rose (Beautiful name). Everyone is very excited and thank God healthy! Congratulations to the whole family! Hugs to my sister Shelley who is now a proud grandma for the 2nd time. My sister Dianna has 6 grand kids (I think). My brother and I are too young for such an blessing. At least our kids are too young. I'm going to have to wait to be called grandma. Here is a cool picture I took off Shelley's blog. It shows Eric (the tired but proud grandpa) Lissa with her first daughter Charlotte, and then a sleeping Olivia Rose. 3 generations in one shot. How fast life goes by! How beautiful life can be!

painting the garage

Rick goes home in the morning. I'm sure he will be happy to see his kids again. 3 weeks is along time to be away. The time has passed so fast. It's been really wonderful! So wonderful!!! We may stay up all night, that way he can sleep well on the flight. Hopefully his jet lag will be less this way! Anyway, here is his painting. It turned out more then good! I really love it...just like I love my brother! We will have to do this again soon!

chicken coop idea

Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.
