Goslings, Hyenas, and Coyotes…Oh my!

April 14, 2008 by abbie 23 Comments

Some friends of my in-laws have been telling us about these geese and their eggs at their nearby pond. Well, these eggs hatched overnight, so we took the kids over to see the little goslings. It’s so impressive to me that those tiny little newborns were already following Mama and Papa Goose around, hopping and swimming. The kids were thrilled at the sight of them, but Papa Gooses was NOT thrilled by the sight of us. He had his eye on us the entire time and was ready to come peck us to death if we came any closer to his 7 little guys. Nevertheless, we watched for quite awhile from a safe distance. I hope they stick around awhile so we can witness their awkward adolescence.

On to the hyenas. Okay, not really living and breathing hyenas. Hyenacart.com, I mean. Hyenacart is a fabulous place where work-at-home moms can sell their homemade wares and the things you will find there are just amazing. You have to go take a look around. My friend Diane over at Pampered Bunz and I have a congo (A group of work-at-home moms selling their homemade goodies. A couple of our friend are our congo-mates. ) over on Hyenacart and today we listed a collaboration. I made a little dress and she made a coordinating appliqued diaper and we’re auctioning it as a set. It’s really a cute set, if we do say so ourselves! Check out the matching set here and to satisfy your curiosity…here’s a pic of just the dress…

Before dinner, I went out to do a little yardwork and I looked up in time to see our backyard coyote slip under the back fence and head out for the evening. You see, apparently this coyote has taken up residence in our back-back yard. It’s mildly unsettling. Mamas lock up your babies. Our little urban coyote isnt’ threatening and is really quite meek. We have spoken to our neighbors, though and decided he needs to be taken care of before family pets start disappearing. It would also help us feel slightly more at ease playing in the backyard. The neighbor is calling a friend who should be able to have him relocated instead of killed. Whacked. Offed. Sent to sleep with the fishes. Clipped. Let’s hope that works out for him. Or her.

***Pampered Bunz has now changed their name to Doodle Bunz!

    LOL, I have to admit, I’m a little pleased with our collab. I think it’ll be fun to surprise the winner with the extra goodies that we’re putting in, too. 🙂

    You know what though?? I think some of those who stalk HyenaCart scare me worse than a coyote. 😀

    Hello would you mind stating which blog platform you’re working with?
    I’m looking to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a tough time making a decision between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
    The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something unique.
    P.S My apologies for being off-topic but I had to ask!

    I’ve been surfing on-line greater than 3 hours today, yet I by no means found any interesting article like yours.

    It’s pretty value enough for me. In my opinion, if all web owners and bloggers made excellent
    content as you did, the web can be much more useful than ever before.

    With havin so much content and articles do you ever run into any
    problems of plagorism or copyright violation? My site
    has a lot of unique content I’ve either written myself
    or outsourced but it appears a lot of it is
    popping it up all over the web without my agreement.
    Do you know any techniques to help prevent content from being stolen?
    I’d genuinely appreciate it.

    Thanks for your concepts. One thing we’ve noticed is banks along with financial institutions are aware of the spending practices of consumers while also understand that most of the people max out and about their real credit cards around the getaways. They properly take advantage of this specific fact and commence flooding your current inbox along with snail-mail box using hundreds of no-interest APR card offers just after the holiday season concludes. Knowing that should you be like 98% of American community, you’ll rush at the possible opportunity to consolidate card debt and shift balances for 0 apr interest rates credit cards. kjjiikm https://headachemedi.com – guided meditation for headache relief
