My Cat’s Google Search

July 7, 2009

When I got on the computer this evening to check email, I discovered a Google search, and it actually came up with 2 results — and an alternate (“Did you mean…”)!!!  Since FluffyBoy the Cat, the four kittens (who need homes), and three dogs were the only ones home today, it had to be one of them; my bet is on either FluffyBoy or Remy (daughter Lauren’s chihuahua).

Here’s what I saw when I went on the computer tonight:

Cat (or dog) Google Search Results

Who knew my pets were so techie??

Names are in – time to vote!

I got a lot of suggestions for chick names, mostly in person but also online.  I’ve assembled 10 names that I can live with to be voted on.  Please vote for your 4 favorites — the top 4 will be the names I’ll use.

Thanks to everyone who gave their suggestions — all of them were appreciated, even if I didn’t select them for the final vote!

Name That Chick! — Contest Ends April 30th

April 15, 2009

We are now the proud owners of 4 chicks which in 3 months will be egg-laying hens. They are pets, never to be eaten, and they will not be bred either.

We’d like your help with names. We’ve had a lot of birds and other pets over the years, all of whom have had names (and still do), but we’re looking for some fresh-new-interesting-creative suggestions. There are four females who need

names. I was told two of them are leghorn hens (but none of them look like a “Foghorn”), who will lay

white eggs, and I forget the breed of the other two, but they are expected to lay brown eggs. Pictures will be forthcoming as soon as I can get them.

I’m going to attempt a poll here, but I’m not sure how that will work out. Please feel free to comment, ask questions, give kudos to someone else’s suggestion(s), and put out as many ideas as you want. I’ve had them for about 10 days, and it looks like they’re all doing well and will grow to be good layers in a few months.

Thank you for your help!!
Heidi (& Vince)

I apologize for the lengthy silence in the past week or two. I was away in Arizona with my husband for an annual business meeting, and I did not have the equipment nor the opportunity to submit any articles.

Hopefully I will be able to sit down and write something substantial before the weekend, as I continually come up with new ideas to share. This is a busy week for me at home, and I am also dealing with some medical issues that I hope will be resolved soon — nothing serious, just painful!

Thank you as always for visiting our page and reading, as well as leaving your comments and involving yourself in our discussions. We should be getting back into the swing of things soon, and there have been a number of exciting political, social, and newsworthy developments in the past week to talk about here.
