Crops?

I have a crop of chickens right now and they are beautiful but eat-eat-eat-. I have all these beautiful roosters that I am going to sell when spring springs a little more.I also have a lot of hens, I will probably sell some of them. I am getting a dozen eggs a day now.
They didn't lay like that when it was snowing and freezing.

TODAY WAS SO SUNNY AND BEAUTIFUL I GOT OUT AND TOOK SOME PICTURES OF MY ROOSTERS I AM GOING TO SELL. I DID A LOT OF WORK TODAY AND NOW MY INJURED SHOULDER IS HURTING BAD.
I HAD ANOTHER MRI AND GOT THE RESULTS FRIDAY. THE DR. SAYS I DO NOT HAVE A TUMOR IN THE BONE LIKE HE THOUGHT. THANK GOD FOR THAT. THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE FOR MY SHOULDER. I HAVE TO ADJUST TO THE NEW LIFE WITH A SHOULDER THAT DOESN'T WORK SO WELL.
I KNOW I WILL ADJUST AND IT WILL GET BETTER THAN IT IS NOW.

Uncle Omar is still getting worse. He thinks i am the hired help sometimes. Sometimes he knows I am his wife and sometimes he doesn't. He tells me every morning how bad he feels and how much his back hurts. He can't walk very well and doesn't have strength in his legs much . I tell him he has strong arms and i have strong legs so we make one good man. We have to laugh about whatever we can find to laugh about. He can tell some of the most amazing made up stories you ever heard of. I listen and laugh.

In Proverbs3:3 "Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck,
Write them on the tablets of your heart."

Proverbs 2:7

Moral Benefits of Wisdom

" He holds victory in store for the upright, he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless." Prov 2:7

God gives us wisdom and victory but not for drifting through life or acting irresponsibly with his gifts and resources. From my "Life Application Bible."

How well do we use God's gifts? I sometimes wonder what I am supposed to do. Do you ever wonder that? It seems there is always some type of crises in this life and we need to look to God for answers. I know it is not easy when something comes along that we really do not know which way to go. That is when we ask God for his guidance and that Wisdom.

I am happy to say I am going to be a great grandmother again. Kara and Wayne, my granddaughter and husband are going to have a little girl and naming her Anna Brooke.
This will be the 12Th great grand baby. I am blessed by God mighty.

THE SNOW JUST KEEPS ON COMING AND MY CRITTERS JUST KEEP ON HAVING TO HAVE MORE CARE IN THIS COLD WEATHER.
IT IS SO COLD AT NIGHT BUT MY GUINEAS ROOST IN THE PEAR TREE---THEY DO NOT LIKE SNOW AND WILL SIT IN THE TREE FOR 3 DAYS BEFORE THEY COME DOWN , THEN THEY FLEW TO THE GROUND THAT DID NOT HAVE SNOW AND THAT WAS UNDER THE PORCH TO MY CABIN. WHEN I FEED MY CHICKENS I FEEL LIKE THE BIRD WOMAN ---THEY ARE SUCH PETS THEY FLY UPON MY HEAD AND MY BACK WHILE I AM GETTING THEIR CORN OUT OF THE BARREL FOR THEM. I RAISED ALL OF THEM AND THEY ARE SUCH PETS. I HAVE ABOUT 50 NOW AND WAS EVEN GETTING FROM 7 TO 13 EGGS EVEN IN THE COLD---THAT IS VERY GOOD FOR THIS HARSH WINTER ON THEM. WHEN SPRING GETS HERE I SHOULD GET 3 OR 4 DOZ A DAY.

OMAR DOES NOT FEEL VERY WELL --EVERY DAY THE FIRST THING IN THE MORNING HE ASKS ABOUT IS HIS DEAD SISTERS, BROTHER , MOTHER AND FATHER. HE CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY NO ONE TOLD HIM ABOUT THEIR DEATHS. IT IS SAD TO LISTEN TO HIS QUESTIONS ABOUT THEM. I HOPE SOMEDAY HE WILL STOP ASKING ABOUT THEM. IT MAKES ME SAD TO HEAR HIM TALK ABOUT THEM AS IF THEY JUST PASSED.

I HOPE TO GO TO CHURCH TOMORROW --ANGEL WILL STAY WITH OMAR AND HE WILL TELL HER LOTS OF TALES. HE CAN REALLY MAKE UP SOME THAT SEEM BELIEVABLE.

HAVE A GOOD SUNDAY,
LOVE AUNT MARIA[MARIE LANE]

Proverbs1:7

"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline." Prov. 1:7

The book of Proverbs focuses on God--his character, works, and blessings--and it tells how we can live in close relationship to him.

Wisdom is what we all want and I ask for it often---In knowing how to deal with things in our life that is not easy to deal with. How to answer questions on a daily basis--Of some things that I do not even know what he is talking about.

We have had some bad days lately . We both had a virus, I had it first and then he got it a few days later. He got so sick we had to take him to hospital and they kept him a day and night. He was very dehydrated and after he got fluids and stopped being sick at his stomach he was ok. He doesn't even know he was in hospital.

On last Monday I went out and made lots of beautiful pictures in the amazing snow we had. I made one picture at the barn in a pile of lumber with snow on it was a broken cross --Or that is what i see and I liked it and today I am sharing the picture with you.

Did you make any kind of change for this new year--I am going to say something on Proverbs each time i do my blog. I hope I can do something each week.

A New Year --2011

Christmas went by like a breeze and then the New Year was here and Farmer Man had his special bd Jan 1. He loves being the vocus of the day even if it is everyones special day before they go back to work. He always bragged about having a holiday for his BD. All the daughters came and some other members of the family. Our pastor Bro. Doug came and we had black eyed peas, hog jowl, turnip greens and corn bread , all for good luck for this 2011 year. We had much more to eat too. Ham and biscuits yum. Lots of other things like I made some Chess Squares I had been wanting for some time and they were delicious.

I have still got pain and problems with my shoulder. I haven't been on here much because it hurts if I stay on long using my arm. I have to go back to have another MRI.

The picture is of my sister Deb and her children and grandchildren and our two other neices. This wasn't his BD hardly but he enjoyed the attention he got that day.

Farmer Man is getting worse all the time but he still goes out with me , if he feels like it, in the afternoon to feed the goats, while I feed the chickens and gather the eggs.
I have to direct him as to what to do sometimes. This New Year will be a good year I just know. God will direct my steps and help us through.

If it snows tonight I will have some good pictures tomorrow. We could get 7 inches wow!!
