TIL you can be an Awesome Member on here if you've made over 500 posts. I'll get there; maybe in 2017... I'm on my way to "awesome", lol! TIL that I really do have 100 things to say. Hooray for hitting 100 posts! Congrats! Isn't it amazing how much more a person can find to say in this wonderful group of people?

TIL that the word "sheeple" really does apply to many I once thought I knew."You are not allowed to mention the other site!" Wade I'm confused...did you hear that on HT about HF or the other way around? I've been mentioning HT on here and tongue in cheek, call HT "that other site". Nothing to be confused about. Melissa would never try to dictate you're life for corporate benefit! It just escapes me how we as a people have become so accustomed to being told what we can and can not do that we just say OK and go on with it! And I'm not any better I guess 'cause it has taken me 2 weeks to figure out just how lame it is to let someone tell you what you can and can not say on the internet like they have this great power and authority over us!They can only have that power and authority over us if we allow them to.

TIL that I have too much firewood for my small antique stoves. I need a couple barrels with removable tops to store ear corn until June and every single one here is full of small pieces of firewood.

TIL also that I really do like the old family run feed store here better than the new Tractor Supply that was just opened. Tractor Supply wanted $74 plus tax for the same baling twine I just bought today at Send Brothers Feed Store for $45. It is funny it is called that because it is a pair of the sisters that are always there.

TIL that I really need to keep better track of where I "put things up" so that the toddler won't use them. Because now I can't find what I'm looking for!

TIL that hauling entire cut trees up to the yard and cutting and splitting them there may save some work and handling, but come spring the yard is full of sawdust, bark and wood chips! What a mess, been out there raking all afternoon so when its time to mow, we'll be ready. Now I'm wondering if it really is more efficient.

Today I learned that, if I go to sleep at 3 a.m. and wake up at 6:15 a.m., when I get out of bed I leave part of my bottom there and it will try to drag the rest of me back to bed all day.

Today I learned several different things: 1. Day 4 of training our Border Collie to herd; she's actually slowly starting to "get it." 2. My arms and shoulders are starting to get used to hauling on the leash after day 4. 3. I am not much of a morel hunter. In ten years I've yet to find one bigger than an olive. Our deer hunter can find nearly half a 5-gal bucket full of monster 'shrooms. Not me.

Wade Gotcha - that's what I thought you meant, but wasn't quite sure. I'm only posting on HT via PM to let folks know how and where to find us. Boy, I bet they wish they really could read the PMs there, lol. I know I'm not the only one doing this.

Today I learned that I don't like people. Wait, nevermind, I've known that for a long time. The more people I deal with on a daily basis, the more I like my rabbits and chickens.

TIL Life will be fine after Saturday when I walk our daughter down the isle. I had a perfectly lovely day with just my sweet wife and I shopping today and running errands. Tomorrow will be a crazy wild day then for me a rather relaxed day for the wedding. Within a week things will settle down and I will be so happy.

Til my daughter's sprained ankle is going to cost me even more money because she has to have five weeks of physical therapy. Still better than the surgery they were afraid they would have to do three weeks ago.

TIL that friends from the city are very nervous when they see any kind of movement outside in the yard. "I just saw a bushy tail. I think it's a fox!" Umm...no, it's a squirrel. "I was going to pick up some pine cones tomorrow, but now I'm kind of afraid to." Let me repeat: It was a squirrel.
