I'm almost ready to kick the felines outside and close the door on them for a time out! The old "island Siamese" who's rarely very active suddenly had a crazy five minutes and did wheelies around the room utilizing chairs and tables as bouncing platforms. As I got up to see what all the noise was about, Joseph who's the youngest and biggest came barreling in from another room to see what was going on and ran into my leg with his thick skull. I feel a bruise coming on. In the meantime, Little Max came in from outside and sat in the middle of the room where she proceeded to grimace and heave before upchucking a few blades of grass amongst a pile of partially digested cat chow. Not to be outdone, Zoe took a flying leap onto the refrigerator, miscalculated the height and, before falling back down, managed to dislodge a container of ground coffee. Needless to say, the lid came off and coffee is all over the kitchen floor. Good grief, what a way to start a day!

Vent over, time to clean up ...

Sun Queen, is your son home yet, is he ok? Very rude not to call if he was going to be late, my parents drilled that one into me good, and its still stuck.

I guess yall been venting overtly, LOL yall should take a page from my book and never call names LOL. I suppose we should be more considerate of our fellows. I for one have some real life stuff I could vent over. Like family. I have been estranged from my mothers children since she passed almost. Now I get a message that one of my sisters would like to see me. Granted they want me sign something to do with insurance. I am totally willing, I don't want anything. They can have whatever it is. It has been over a year since I have laid eyes on them. I think too much time has passed. I have nothing to offer. I have already been as good as I can be and given what I had. I am just empty now. I decided not to meet.

We live rural and are one of the few people that enjoy taking our dogs out for walks. The main places we choose to go are those with a pond, or stream, and relatively natural. During the 10 years we have lived here, I have never encountered the crawdad people. This year, they seem to be everywhere that there is water. I find it infuriating because they are there every day, all day, hauling buckets out, smashing the tall vegetation and cattails.
The birds like crawdads, and I like to watch them.
They say, in broken english, that they are taking them for bait. I don't believe it, because they are taking so many. I assume they are selling them at a bait shop.
I have called Fish n Game, but there is no limit, so there's nothing I can do.
Those ponds belong to all of us - and they are destroying the ecosystem imo.

I understand that completely, I think you did the right thing.

Btw, I haven't heard back from the guy about the house, so tomorrow the lawyer will have to attack. Tired of the rain.

Thats to bad, Claudhopper. You would think the bait shops wouldnt be buying in such bulk, but I have no idea. Its sad they destroyed your peaceful day as well.

I did not think I said anything out of line in my previous posts, and defending veterans I wont apologize for.

Hang in there, sometimes we have to do things we just don't feel all that good about doing. Thax for the support.

This whole Thailand process is pissing me off! Ugh. So much stinking requirements that I just want to let them know how frustrating this is.
