Metal rat Libra here. The 1960 Chinese zodiac is the Metal Rat, with the Lunar Year of the Rat beginning on January 28, 1960, and ending on February 14, 1961. Those born in 1960 (between these dates) are characterized as intelligent, resourceful, and charming, with the Metal element adding strength, discipline, and a focused, goal-oriented nature to their personality.

Nope. Need all the facts for it to add up to the right answers!

I'm not angry. Just tired.

FINALLY got a reply out of the disability insurance peeps. Approved pending his jobs approval. Still no payments but a statement of what he is eligible for. Works out to 85% of his regular wage for approximately 20 weeks. The problem? He has already been out of work 14 weeks. At this rate his benefits will run out before he gets them!

Wishing there was more we could do for you than sending good thoughts @kbois

I have a lap afghan (lapghan?) working. Basic granny square center with working around to size. Has gotten to the point where it is big enough that you don't see the growth with each row, and now seems like it takes forever!

Just finished up morning chores @ the barn. We have a heat wave! 35*f ! Sat down in the truck and flipped the radio on. SOB weather geeks say it is going to snow/sleet/ general miscellaneous mixed mush on us this afternoon! Where is my quilt???

This is very similar to a dish I make regularly but with either bacon or shredded pork as the meat.

Does the state you live in have a version of the Department of Labor? Ours the Labor Board, but I think there are other names as well.

It's snowing again!

Short answer is 12 in one trip using 4 trailers. Two can hold 2 horses each, one of which has had modifications to allow the safe movement of small ponies and mini horses. The other two can hold four horses each. One of my drivers is currently out of the loop as hubby is still healing after the amputation of 3 toes, and and my daughter's truck is buried in a snow bank right now. The new barn was only 3 miles from the start point so we made three trips of 6, 6, and 5 horses.

Babies are fun. I swear you can see the light bulb turn on when they figure out what you are asking of them!

Had a very good afternoon with the ponies! 17 of em and only one gave us any fuss loading, and he was a 2 yr old baby!

A knitt/crochet person will never say they have too much yarn, but quilters are worse by far. My uncle walled off a 15 x15 craft room in the basement for my aunt, 3 walls of which are covered floor to ceiling with kitchen cabinets, all of which are full with her collection of quilting material.

Too many knitting needles for me!

Lol I had a move two summers ago where the lady called as I was almost home from the barn, which meant i had to drive 20 min BACK to the barn to pick up my trailer, then 20 min north again before starting the trip north. That put me on a very busy stretch of interstate @ afternoon rush. When I dropped the two horses off and told her the charge she asked "Does that include the 'owner is a jerk tax?" Insisted on a $50 dollar tip.
-
Lmfao! In the time it took to type all that, the kid texted apologizing, and begging me to pick up on schedule!

Had a customer call for a short notice move of 17 horses after a blow up with her current landlord. Arrangements made on Wednesday to move today. Load time today pushed out 3 times, from 8 to 10 to noon, new barn is taking more work than anticipated. Now her business partner calls wanting me to cut the price by 20%. I quoted the move @ break even because she is a former student of mine, and the stress of a short notice move like this. When I said I could not, he claimed to have someone who would do it for half what I quoted. I said great, call them.

You do know by saying "No food fights" you may as well have dared this bunch?

8* today soooo...

You saying we are a bunch of mixed fruits?

OK then. It's colder than usual around here. Our high was 18*f. The dog does NOT like cold. We let her out to our fenced back yard and she does her business in record time. Hubby opened the door to let her back in, and here comes the dog @ mach Jesus, followed closely by a tiny sparrow, whom it took 3 of us a good 10 min to chase back outside! She seemed to want to stay in the warm. No panicky flapping, no fluttering against the windows, just stayed out of reach, landing on curtain rods and the like.

It is ABSOLUTELY gorgeous out there! Ice and snow covered trees in bright sunshine!
