She doesn't expect anyone to live out here with them. You can always talk to them. Let me know if you are interested and I will chat her up about it and set up a time for you guys to come out.Phelanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08250080326099834661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28663723.post-10416795813924486272008-10-31T07:56:00.000-05:002008-10-31T07:56:00.000-05:00You know, I'd really be sad to leave Greensburg, b...You know, I'd really be sad to leave Greensburg, but it's an option...

They are to scare and intemidate, not to harm. The fit throwing got the same reaction that a whip would have. I'm not hollering at you, no worries. I do pop them on the rear to get them moving, but with my hand. <BR/><BR/>Anita, hey would you be interested in renting the homestead across the road?<BR/><BR/>EJ, it was just one of those off days.

But just like the kids, sometimes they need a little pop on the hinder to remind them that the rules you enforce are for their well-being, not yours. OK, maybe in this case it is your well-being, but still.<BR/><BR/>And nobody holler at how mean I am, ok. Thanks.It's mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02030081794655766175noreply@blogger.com
