Haha..... or the "Blue Gator Ranch"?  LMAO

Throwing me and Keith in the same pot, would most likely not be the best idea. He's more suited for a sweet gal. I'm a bit too smart mouthed and sassy, and need a guy strong enough to handle that. Keith couldn't, I'm sure of it.

He likes 'em kinda slutty, and contrary to all appearances here,  LOL , I'm a one man type of gal... So he'd be disappointed there.

He'd think I babied his horses too much. (cause I would) And he'd be mean to my cows, and probably whip them...... then I'd have to take the whip and turn it on him. Ya see where this is headed?  :no:  Not a good place to go.



Excuse me? I thought I cleared that up Stevie! If anything, Michael has the "Charmin curl" going on.  And besides, if you don't like my hair..... simply don't look at my pic. Cause I'm not in the mood to change it anymore, this one stays.



Actually, it's just a small pen for a baby calf..... Steven, you watch too many westerns on the family channel. You don't have to build it "Ponderosa Ranch" size to be able to handle one little  ol' calf.  My husband was home that day...... he cut boards while I hammered them in place.... and it went together very quick. It was up before dark. Actually, the stall itself was made kinda hasty, just for temp, I'll be redoing that part tomorrow.

Anyhow.... enough "cow talk" for me. It's starting to bore me.  :wave:

Oh yeah,  sorry, I forgot  :(    My memory isn't what it used to be (slapping self in head)






Yeah, but if not for them,  I'd have never known that was a cow in the photo.  I live in CT...  TV is where you see stuff that isn't cat, dog, or bird related...

NO WONDER, I didn't forget !   That wasn't me.   My account was compromised. I haven't posted here since last weekend !  Pheww !  I was getting scared there for a minute  :shock:

I wonder......... You've got my head whirling with idears now Steven.

You're a man, so tell me your opinion:

You think that "oh, no!! ..... there's 3 of us!!" would maybe work on my husband? I mean, that way I could do whatever the heck I wanted to, and when he found out, just blame it on Charm#2 or Charm#3.  :yes:

Maybe I'll try it out this weekend. So, if you don't see me by, say, uh, maybe wednesday..... You can safely assume the answer was..... No, it didn't work.

Well,  Thing is,  I have an excuse..  Remember the movie  "The Three Faces of Steve" ?    That was written about me... No kidding !

But in your case,  there's a chance your husband might not believe you.  Thing is, in a sense we all have many facets to our personalities... We all have the rebelious inner-child, we all have the adult when needed (well some of you do,  I wouldn't know personally of course).  None of us are just "one" person all the time.... We are conglomerates IMO.... So sure,  I'd say do as you please, and just tell your husband....

"Hey,  I'm not perfect,  are you infallible ? It's a woman's perrogative to change her mind,  if you don't want to be married to a woman, go find some guy someplace"...


It should work !  Billy says that to me all the time.  I have no response !

G'nite everyone, time for me to go.  :wave:

See ya all next week sometime.

I'm ultra piosed at Keith for not coming to look at my calf pics....  :(

Keith is probably buying the new horse as we speak... He keeps really busy with stuff, I'm surprised he's able to stay awake as late as he does... If I did all the outdoor stuff he did, I'd be out like a light by 10 PM.  He actually gets by on less sleep than I do !

...AND I got a day job too!....I don't sleep, i go into a near death coma.

Charmin you are nuts to buy a bull calf.....He will soon be too much trouble.

Next year buy a feeder calf, then fatten him up at your mom's place and butcher him...You will get great beef at a very cheap price. I did it several years ago when my cousin had a large pasture. We would both buy calves at the auction and once they got to about 1000 lbs, we would slaughter and dress them and have them butchered and packaged and flash froze.....We could freeze a years beef for just a few hundred bucks...And it was great eating!

But cousin sold his place and moved away, so I'm back to buying store bought beef.

IMO, if you want to eat some beef, then buy some beef at a good butcher shop and have at it.  If you want to raise a calf from near birth and take good care of it, then do just that.  Let it live a decent life.  No need to dearly care for an animal and then have it butchered.  But what do I know, I'm just a city boy.  Heck, I'm a hypocrite. I'll eat beef but I don't learn the first name.

i hope my votes isn't too late...i say yes...your posts sound like this is really what you want to do even if it doesn't sound "sensible" to buy a horse that is out of shape. go for it.

Well, we drove 120 miles this morning to look him over.....Those pics were taken when he was 1500 lbs!....He is now 1300 and still needs to lose a tad more.

The wife and all the women there rode/talked/fooled with the horses for two hours while us guys stood around in the shade and got to know each other.....Then the wife rides up and asks "Well, should I buy him?"....I just laffed and told her I'd drive back up Monday with Robbie and haul him home .....So she was all giggles and motormouth all the way home.

He really is a fine horse.....So Gus is now a member of the family.....Him and Gambler are going to be a pair to watch each morning.

I filled up as we left town and then again when we returned....I traveled 246 miles on 12.3 gals, so that huge diesel dually got 20 MPG!....I'm very happy with my new truck and she is happy with her new horse.

I should stop picking at Charmin....She a has a beautiful calf and a good heart....I bet that will be those most spoiled bull in the PMW.

I did the correct thing "for me" given my values years back Don... No beef, or pork for three years,  no leather belts or shoes..  I have a tough time with this very same concept.  This is an area I'm quite weak in.  I can't debate it.... I'm a critter with great emotional restriction. One who also lives using denial and blindness as a coping mech... It keeps me a LITTLE bit sane.... or does it ?

WHAT? you don't eat no meat or wear leather?

No wonder you don't sleep so well and have three personalities. you suffer from suppressed male urges.

Think about it Steven.....It's a male ritual thang that goes back to the dawn of time....We wear the skin of our kill....We eat it's flesh....Then we go back to our caves and yank n spank the cave mouse and give her the scraps to eat....And then she chews the tuff hides into soft leather and makes it into clothes and shoes for her man....And then we thump our chests soundly each morning.

By not eating red meat or wearing leather you are neglecting a billion years of male instincts.....Steven, you are EVOLVING into a nonmale!....And that is why you are confused and have mood swings.

No,  I'm a sinner now Keith.  I resumed eating meat, and have many really nice leather jackets.  Yet the reason I feel I'm a sinner in this respect, is because I could live quite a healthy existence eating vegetables, fruits, and being a vegetarian. Likely the best thing I could do for my health.  Realistically, if I saw an animal being slaughtered that would but an END to my meat eating.  It's not that I "need" to eat something and condone the slaughter of animals.  It just goes against MY OWN ethical construct.  Every living critter has a right to live unless the mosquito is sucking my blood.... I escort even ants, and wasps outside.... Won't kill them.  Just the way I am... Yet I am condoning the killing of livestock (which I CAN in fact live without ingesting), hence I am sinning !  Hypocritical.  OK,  enough of my bleeding heart shpiel....      Just the way I feel

One other courtesy I don't extend.  Since I received my first painful spider bite 2 years back.  If it's the size, and coloration of a possible Brown Recluse spider, IT DIES !

We got these little green lizards down here thick as flies.....I've taught the step daughter to catch them and turn them loose in the house.....They will eat any kind of spider/insect/ant in reach, and they avoid humans....Once turned loose, you will never see them again, nor will you see any insects in the house.

You want me to ship you a few little green lizards?

,  Nah,  I used to have "Anoles" as pets. Anoles are the mistaken version of chamelion... They change color according to their environment.  I wonder if those are the lizards you speak of.

Whut? Has somebody taken over Keith, as well as Steven? I would swear that wasn't you who typed that.  :D

Dang right it will be the most spoilt calf around! Lemme tell ya what I did. My bedroom has a sliding glass door that leads to our back yard. Hubby is gonna build a small deck off of it, and he has started framing one end section of the yard, so we could have a little "private yard" off of our bedroom, with plants & lawn furniture & all that. We have fencing that we took from our old house, and this is what he was gonna use it for. I had  argued with him.... that he better not build it and then decide to let his big ol' dog run loose in there. I want to be able to sit out there on summer evenings without a dog hanging around me. Nor do I want a dog right outside my bedroom window barking, pooping around, and peeking in my sliding glass windows at me all hours of the day & night.

So..... it was the absolute best place I could think of to put Merle.  LOL  And I had to kinda pester him a bit to make him see things my way. I mean, one end was framed, and partially fenced...... so all we had to do was finish it up. The lumber & fencing were just laying there waiting to be used. So, I got my way, and he's grumping  about it. Now, I have a little bull calf moo'ing at my sliding glass door in the mornings as soon as he hears us get up and start talking. And we can't open it for air flow, cause... it.... smells like a baby calf. Even though I shovel the stall & grounds out every day, cows just.... get stinky.  And the flies seem to want to hang out in our "private backyard" he was building for me.  LMAO

Couple more pics, then I'll stop with them...... I think he's so cute when he is having his bottle. And, no cracks about what I look like..... I had just gotten out of bed, and threw on some overclothes to give him a bottle so he'd shut up. (matter of fact, I hadn't even combed my hair yet)  :D  And yes, I do still wear my HoHo christmas jammie pants in June... haha. No cracks about those either!  They're comfie.

Anybody who says he aint cute..... is just lying!!  :D

He's small !  Are cow smart enough to tame, and sort've domesticate ?  Do they get attached to their owner ?  I know nothing about that species of animal.

Lemme get this straight......

Your man was building you a nice private little fenced in area outside your mutual bedroom door.......And you was skeered he might turn his dog loose in there and you would have a dog poop, dog snoop, and dog noise problem.....So instead, you convert it into a cow pen and stuff a bull calf in there.......  :whistle:

Gurl, you got on the wrong breeches.....you need to be wearing Loony Toons pants, cause you are fersure Daffy.

If I was your husband I would bleed that sucker, skin it, and butcher it for the super tender veal meat, and then make myself some nice calf skin leather items.....and feed the scraps and bones to my faithful and understanding MALE dog....Then I would tie your hands to a shovel and lock you outside until you had cleaned up the calf poop.

Then I would carry you the 40 miles to your momma's house and drop you off....and sic my dog on you if you strayed back.

Does your husband have an email address?....Me n him need to talk.
