And Then There Were Three

Really?? Can this really be my life? You all seeing how freakin crazy my life is? Well it just got crazier.
This afternoon I was staining windows in C'mans room. Something I have put off for oh....6 months?? I HATE it. But anyway, I'm finishing up and in drives my BIL with ducks in the back of his truck. I couldn't get my staining gloves of fast enough, wondering what the hell he was doing. (sorry but that was exactly what I was thinking)
If Miss A hadn't been napping AND i wasn't upstairs, I'd yelled and jumped out the window. I rushed downstairs, thru the house, muttering 'oh NO you don't' or 'what the hell' I get out there to see him walking with THREE DUCKS and ONE BLACK CHICKEN.
Being held by there feet he says: 'This is ALL I HAVE LEFT'.

'Excuse me?? Pardon me but what are you doing with them HERE?? I HATE ducks. I even want to hate these chicks.'

My 14 yr old niece was with him or I'm most certain I would have been freaking out more. THEN my brain kicks in and I have a suggestion.
I tell him 'I have a deal. You can keep them here IF you go get that building I'm going to make in to a chicken house down at the neighbors'

He grunts, groans, mutters something and I say 'seriously they are not ALL going to stay in my garage. I'm not cleaning up after 3 ducks on top of my already messy chickens'.

He tells me DH can go get the building. I reply ahhhh Haaa that's the problem. He won't/can't/to busy/ and I want it NOW:)

He leaves and if I had a stick I'd been shaking in the air as he left. THREE stinken ducks quacking and it's driving me fricken nuts.

Oh wait, there's more. I get this idea to list them on this free recycle website as well as on facebook. Well guess what, I have a taker. My lovely Jen. I tell BIL of my new founded home for them and he replies: 'I don't think so, I'm taking them back as soon as I figure out what's killing them'

DRATS!!!!!!!!!

Not sure how many days that means but 5 hours later and I'm still going crazy listening to those things quack. Did I mention yet how annoying they are??

Well now they are in there own cage. Remember how chickens will peck to death an animal that is wounded, well that's what they are doing to the one duck. Oh and another duck had it's eyes poked out by this varmet! I'm told that the scene in the chicken house was awful. Whatever animal is doing this has NO mercy. They found chicken pieces up in a tree, above the garage, and who knows where else. What amazes me is know one heard this!? When DH and I lived over there we heard right away if something was in the chicken house.

They are kind of thinking it's a Wiesel?? I have no idea what that is but it sounds awful b/c they are known to bite the head off AND suck the blood out. How awful is that!!!!

That's my story for today. I tell ya, if I had the time, I could blog a story about every day. Inevitably there is always something. I'm heading off to bed. I have to go laugh myself to sleep b/c I still can't believe this is my life!

Tomorrow is C'mans Bible School program. I can't wait:)

Aw shucks. They would have been so fun! Did he figure it out yet? Could be coon...possum...dog... He'll probably have to set a trap and sit out with his shot gun and wait for the varmit.
