Heck, I probably did!
Everyone I've been sending PMs to lately has gotten the flu from me!

I'd say, in reality, Kricket did it!
Looks TOO innocent!

Cindy

Doesn't she though! That's what I thought too, until I found stuffing in Abby's lips!

Cindy,

Do your turkey dreams look anything like this?!

Thanks to Geegee , for instructing me how to post pix!

Oh, oh, I thought I did it correctly but all I see is a red X! Try this again!


Whoo Hoo!! It worked!

My turkeys are black!
When you see a real turkey with a head and feathers that's not in a Butterball plastic bag it sure makes you think twice about eating them...well, me anyway.

My aunt had a turkey when we visited Kentucky once for Thanksgiving, and she chopped it's head off and it ran around the yard forever until they finally caught it and hung it up. It was really freaky, and for a kid from the city who wasn't used to the lifestyle here in rural Kentucky, it was pretty traumatic. My sister kept it's head, and cried and cried over it. She ended up (unknown to my parents at the time) taking the turkey's head back to Washington D.C. with us. After a week or so, the stench coming from her bedroom was out of this world, and my mom finally went looking for the source.

She found the turkey's head wrapped in Kleenex, in a little box in her dresser drawer.

Freaky!

Cindy

It's funny how memories pop up now and again. I bet your mother was really shocked, Cindy!

I remember seeing my mother and my step-dad killing chickens in their front yard when I was around 18 or so. I never ate chicken again at their house. To this day, I cannot eat a fresh-killed chicken. I get my meat and poultry from the grocery store all cleaned up and wrapped in plastic. I don't have to watch it running around the yard with no head!

Dianna

Awhile ago after I finished posting that about the headless turkey, I got up to finish vacuuming the floor (it's taken me all day so far!), and look what was on the couch behind me...sleeping like a little baby!

Andy does NOT allow Freckles on the couch!
Andy isn't here right now! That's his pillow!


Cindy

Awwww,he looks sooooo sweet!!!

If they share a pillow does that mean Andy gets flea dipped too?

G-Mom

They both use Frontline Plus!

I am so glad you clarified that...I had this wild thought of you taking Andy and Freckles to the groomers,having them both knocked out and groomed and dipped!!!



G-Mom

...on a leash?

ARF!

Don't forget the muzzle!!



G-Mom

You know how my imagination is..

Great minds think alike That's EXACTLY how I was imagining it too!



Are we bad or what?

oh he is so cute, how can he be so mean.

I think I'll draw a cartoon of that, just for my own personal amusement!

Don't you mean...OUR personal amusement

G-Mom

Cindy and G~mom,
:rolleyes:
:rolleyes:

His cute looks are very deceiving.
Last night we got into a BIG fight over one of those giant Hershey bars. It got ugly.
It's happened once before, so I keep the chocolate in the armoire now, out of his sight. But, Andy left it on the coffee table, Freckles got it, and it took 2 pillows and a big telephone book to defend myself so I could get it away from him.
I should have just let him eat it....

Cindy

***Cindy and ****Dianna,
We used to do that too with chickens, we'd get mail order chicks and keep them in a great big tub with a light bulb to keep them warm, and they were so cute, and then once they got a bit bigger went to the barn and got even bigger, and the hens were kept for laying eggs and the roosters were done for dinner..(*YUCK*) and the men/boys would do that with the chickens and let them run around, I was terribly sicken by it, and it was the girls job, we used to have to pluck them, and it was usually done in the fall time, when it's cold out side and we'd have to soak them in hot salt water to get the feathers to come out easier, and my mother and grandmother thought nothing of doing it, *it was the way it was to eat and survive back in the olden days*
But mine was still moving or twitching, and the smell of that hot, salty bloody water on a cold day, still makes me s!ck :p and I am almost a total vegetarian, and I do eat chicken and my mother and I often talk about it and how we both are amazed that I DO eat chicken after all of that and how picky of an eater I am....
I can remember the chicken BBQ's on the spit and how tasty they were...

***And Cindy,
That dog looks sooooooooooo ANGELIC when he's sleeping!!!! They just had the cutest dog beds on the QVC yesterday...sm, med, and lg.
I wanted one just for me to curl up on they looked so comfy and cozy!!!

Weezie

Well, I'd buy him a dog bed, but Andy had a little "talk" with me the other day about my credit card spending (last month - $984.46), so I guess Freckles can just sleep on the couch, with his head on Andy's pillow!
(An hour before the "talk" I had just put $86. worth of parrot treats on the card, which I failed to disclose during our "talk". I wanted it to be a surprise next month!)

G-Mom, You KNOW you would get to see it, too!

Don't lion tamers usually use a whip and chair

That's the fun part...
He won't notice because the pillow cases are just about the same color as Freckles!

Cindy

ROFLMAO
