3 Down and 27 More to Go!

Ok since nobody gave me any direction on here! I asked my friends and they all looked at me and said "Why?" my reply was "Why Not?" So I decided to do it.

3 Days in and I allready hate it, I feel like a slob! 50 Years ago women were naturally beautiful with out makeup and that is still true today, but why do many young women today think they are only beautiful if they have makeup on???

I do I feel ugly, extra fat and like a slob. I feel extremly unprofessional and well again a slob. I have allowed my self 5 furlough days durring this 30 day time period (Ending Nov 12th) for special occassions or if I just need to have some of it on my face!! LOL I am though going to strive to take better care of my skin durring this time period.

3 Down only 27 More to go

To Wear or Not to Wear that is the ultimate question

After reading that another blogger decided to take a 30 day challange of no makeup for 30 days it peaked my intrest. Should I do a 30 day (or shorter) challange as well? What will I discover about my self with it? Will I save that much time? Will I like the person in the mirror that much more?

So I am going to let you decided.... 30 Days No Makeup? 15 Days no Make up? Or ditch the idea (its madness!!!) all together?

Pretty Please (with SUgar on top) let me know what you think!

Captin Green....Captin Chandler

I have nothing against recycling or saving the earth, its just something I dont do often. I mean I dont litter and I do use green products in my home but i dont recycle and i am not worried about my carbon footprint so you must imagine how much of a shock it was to me to see how worried my daughter is aobut the earth. Since Kindergarden she has been recycling when she can, talking about saving the earth, gets her friends to recycle and is so happy when she sees recycling containers or recycled products.

She wants to save the earth, and single handly she can! She is always talking about saving energy, gas, earth and is worried about her carbon footprint. Now she is quite young and probly shouldnt be worrying about these thigns but due to nicklodean and disney chanel she is. She came to me one day crying because her friend wont put her lunch sack in the recycling bin, she said she has asked her and told her about the earth and wanted me to give her suggestions on how to win her over. A little girl with the weight of the world on her shoulders. I see great things.... lots of great things ahead for her. I told her to offer to take her friends trash and recycle it her self or ask the teacher to do a lesson on recycling. Long story short her friend now recycles her lunch sack and if I herd her correctly a few other of her classmates are as well.

I could do more to save the earth and I will honestly try.

Heart in my Thoat

This weekend was well a "raw" one, me and my daughter experienced life and death and how quickly things can change first hand. Both of us took a moment to fully let it sink in, it seemed like a dream (nightmare), it happened so quickly and I felt helpless to change the outcome.


Eeyore... a black and white little buckling that was born here in March died. Me and Chan were doing our worming as scheduled and we gave the goat an animal cracker, he choked. I did everything I could, himlech manuver, trying to dislodge the crackers, physically trying to pull it out, blowing breath into him and anything elses I could think of. I know its a goat but for us farmers its our lively hood, our pets and our lives. Chan refused to give up even after it was evident that he had passed. He tried CPR and then helped me dig a hole. She didnt shed one tear until later that night durring feeding time. I think it was then it finally hit her.

Its easy to explain life, death, birth to farm kids, they know it before most kids do, they experience it when others only hear about it and the live it with others watch from the sidelines.

These goats are chans, they are her pets, projects and her pride and joy. So when one is lost its a great pain and loss to her. She works hard to see to the best of her goats, she feeds them, trains them and watches over them. She loves them and they are who she is.

My heart goes out to Chan today and was in my thoat all weekend, I love you baby girl
