Chicken Noodle Soup???

Or how about Peking Duck? Or maybe Chicken Pot Pie? What about just plain old Roasted Chicken?

What in the world was I thinking wanting chickens? One flew out when I opened the door to feed them this morning and I haven't been able to catch it to put it back in yet. Thankfully the dogs are in their pen or I'm sure they would have had themselves a little morning snack by now. I'm so frustrated right now that I'm ready to get rid of all the animals, including the dogs, because they won't stay out of trouble either. One tears up everything he can get his grubby paws on and likes to dig up my garden. The other killed a kitten yesterday. I told Ian the dogs have to go because I don't have the time or patience to clean up after children and dogs.

*sigh* Has anyone seen my sanity wondering around anywhere?

well...mama should have your clicker that i sent to you by now & to catch the chicken, go up to mama's & get Ian fishing net. I used it to catch kittens. Should work. GOOD LUCK!!

Ian is checking to see if the net is still there. He just made it home for lunch so maybe we can get the poor bird back in with its siblings. I finally just had to walk away from it or I was gonna go after the bb gun just to make me feel better. Ok, not really but the thought did cross my mind.

It's kind of funny...I was just thinking today, "How does Miranda handle having all of those animals?" Lauren was hinting that she wanted a duck as a pet. I was thinking.....NO WAY! Hope things settle down soon.

My kids want a dog and even though I would like one too I don't think I'm up to keeping track of one more "little animal". Best of luck
