Hunting Season...


Oh ya, it's here again. The season that has all the guys going nuts and spending days away from home. I know that they tell me it is because we need the meat, but I know that the antlers are what they are really after. Well I showed them......I shot a trophy mule deer buck the other day, and made the guys cry. LOL A guy that I work with was so jealous that he begged my hubby to take him hunting!
We have some neighbors who are prominant in the community and they think that they can just sit on the edge of our property line and wait for the animals to leave the property so they can get a shot at them. I am afraid to say anything, but on the other hand, I hate my kids having to wear orange when they go outside to play, and I am afraid that those stupid asses will shoot towards the house. they have no respect for anyone.
I have been having some trouble at work, my boss thinks that since I leave a couple of hours before everyone else to pick up my kids, I am not capable of doing the job that I really want to do. He hired someone else and when he thought I was quitting he gave me a raise, but today I find that the minimum wage has been changed and it is higher than my raise is! LOL again.
My youngest girl is really starting to get to me. I finally went to the doctor and had them do every test they could think of. I fall asleep driving, working and eating and I feel sick when I am not. Turns out that I am TIRED! I am not hitting my REM sleep at night and I am stressed, which they found out by looking at my fingernails and seeing that they care covered in white dots. I know what it is...my daughter. She wakes up every morning screaming, kicking and hitting. she refuses to get up, get dressed, eat or brush her hair, she makes us all late every day and spankings, time out and taking things away do not work. I am at my wits end. Time to call Dr. Phil???
My oldest girl made honor roll today and my son just got back from a hunting trip and he shot a bull elk for the first time. He was very happy until he realized that he has so much homework to make up that he is going to be in his room for the next week.
I made elk summer sausage today and my next trek is to make jerky. I hope it comes out as good as this did.
