Gary the chicken is officially home and I’m about 97% sure she’s already plotting my death. Her daughter, Garita 3.0, absolutely whooped my ass while I was trying to move her into her new humble abode with her little demon puff balls.

This is gonna be so fun. 🫠

I tossed Gary into the coop and basically told the rest of the flock “good luck, y’all are on your own now.” If she doesn’t possess everybody or start a prison riot by morning, I’ll call it a success.

Took a picture with her and the look in her eyes told me everything I needed to know. I’m absolutely on her hit list. So if I mysteriously disappear, just know Gary the chicken did it and Garita 3.0 was her accomplice. 🤣

Thanks again Sass & Brass Acres!

We are headed to Sass & Brass Acres to grab Gary and Gary 3.0 and her puff balls. My road trip buddies passed out on me before we even left town 🙄 Ryder cleaned a chicken coop today so I see why he is tired but that middle child hasn’t lifted a finger yet today 🤣🤣

Apparently I’m out here raising children in the 70s, guaranteeing myself a one-way ticket to “no contact” the second these boys turn 18, AND apparently I need therapy too 🤣🤣

Jokes on you babe, I’m already in therapy and medicated, so I’m not real sure what kind of insult you thought that was gonna be. I’m confident in everything I do and sleep just fine at night 😂

Some of y’all act like making a child work off consequences is cruel and unusual punishment. Meanwhile I’m over here raising boys that know actions have consequences and money doesn’t magically appear because mommy and daddy said so.

Please go give her the attention she deserves because this level of dramatics is comedy gold 🥇🤣

What’s something y’all have brought home that your husband/significant other said absolutely not to? 😂

My list is honestly too long to count at this point, but today’s “absolutely not” was geese… and yet they’re currently riding home in my car so there’s that. 🤣

I don’t think I ever accepted the word “no” when my mama told me I couldn’t have certain animals as a kid. Then I grew up, got my own place, and apparently took “you can do whatever you want when you pay your own bills” real serious.

So now what mama wants, mama gets. 💅🏼

Which means I’m now the proud owner of another Chinese goose AND my very first Sebastopol goose and I am absolutely over the moon about it. Y’all better be happy for me because my husband sure ain’t. 😂

Ryder finished up another job yesterday evening. Picked plenty of ticks off the poor kid, but he never once complained. We sat down after and went over what he got paid… then mama introduced him to the rude awakening called taxes, gas, w**d eater string, and supplies 😂

Safe to say he understood real quick that it takes money to make money, even if he wasn’t exactly thrilled about it.

He’s already got 3 more jobs lined up for Sunday and I couldn’t be more proud of how he’s sticking with it instead of giving up when it got hot, itchy, sore, and inconvenient. That’s the kind of lesson that’ll stick way longer than me just paying the fine for him ever would’ve.

Then the boy hit me with, “I’ll clean your coop out as an I’m sorry.” Sir… you got 8 coops on this farm 🤣 By the time he’s done with all these jobs, I think cleaning coops is how he’ll be paying me back for gas and supplies because honestly that sounds like a fair trade to me 😂

Ryder had his first job yesterday and whew buddy reality hit hard 🤣 He had to w**deat a super long, hilly driveway and let me tell y’all… there were several moments where I’d look up from the comfort of my air conditioned queen-mobile and see him standing there stretching his arms, staring up at the sky like he was questioning every life choice that led him to that w**d eater 😂

But every single time? Right back at it he went. No quitting, no crying, no excuses. Just working.

This morning he woke up sore in his arms and legs and today is field day at school, so I’m sure he’s really loving life right now 🤣 But honestly? I’m proud of him. This lesson is already doing exactly what it was supposed to do. Money doesn’t just appear, and mommy and daddy work hard for every dollar we have.

Thank y’all so much to everyone that reached out wanting to hire him for jobs. The support, the encouragement, and the willingness to help teach a young boy accountability means more than I can explain. We’ll be in touch with everyone if we haven’t already.

This mama truly appreciates y’all having my back while we raise these feral boys into hardworking men 💪🏼🤣

Welp, things I’ve learned since posting about my oldest son acting like an entitled brat… apparently holding your kids accountable makes some people BIG mad. 😂

So let me explain the “entitled” part since some of y’all are struggling. He was told the bus seat fine could be UP TO $350 and his response was basically, “that’s fine.” Meaning mommy and daddy will pay it so who cares.

Yeah… no. Not in this house.

And let’s be real for a second… if you’ve never called your child an ass or at least THOUGHT they were being an ass, then either you haven’t been a parent long enough or you don’t actually have kids. 🤣

I don’t know about y’all, but in this economy $350 absolutely matters and money sure ain’t growing on trees around here. If you don’t want to hold your kids accountable, that’s your business. I’ll hold mine accountable till the day I die. My boys WILL understand how hard their parents work for everything they have.

These kids have their own show coops, birds, animals, projects, and opportunities because WE work for them. We have over 100 animals and most of those show birds are for the boys. And before anybody says it, no we do NOT make money showing. Half the time it doesn’t even cover gas or feed costs. We work hard for every single thing these kids have and every opportunity they get.

My kids also don’t sit around glued to gaming systems and devices all day. We are an outside family. Old school. They work, they sweat, they learn life skills.

My 8 year old can run a zero turn, w**d eat, move my vehicle around the property, and solve his own problems half the time. Kid threw a ball on the roof the other day and instead of crying about it, he grabbed a ladder and handled it himself. That’s the kind of children we’re raising over here.

My boys say yes ma’am, no ma’am, yes sir, no sir. They have chores. They clean up after themselves. They work for extra money. And now my oldest gets to learn that acting foolish costs money and mommy and daddy are not his personal bank account.

Y’all can bash me all you want, but I sleep real good at night knowing I’m raising capable, respectful, hardworking boys instead of entitled ones. 😉

Picture of said child proudly holding his ribbons. OH, I Posted with permission for all the Karen’s and Richard’s out there. 😂 He thinks yall are so funny.

When your kiddo throws a toy on the roof they get it down themselves 😂

This here is Ryder. He’s almost 11 and apparently thought poking holes in a bus seat was a solid life choice. Spoiler alert: the school disagreed… and now there’s a fine attached to his creativity.

So Ryder is officially entering his “actions have consequences” era. Mama and Daddy are not paying for this mess up because when you act entitled and act like an ass, life gets real expensive real quick. Especially heading into middle school.

He’s looking for jobs to earn the money himself and learn that people work hard for the things they have. He needs to make around $100 to cover the seat plus gas money to and from jobs.

Things he can help with:
• Spreading mulch
• Mowing
• W**d eating
• Picking up limbs
• W**ding gardens or flower beds
• Cleaning stalls
• Cleaning chicken coops
• Washing dogs
• General outdoor chores

He has transportation and access to a mower and w**d eater if needed.

I’ll supervise to make sure the work gets done right. By supervise I mean I’ll probably be sitting in a lawn chair judging his work ethic… unless it’s hot, then I’ll supervise from the AC in my vehicle like the hardworking manager I was born to be. 😂

Located in Crofton, KY but willing to travel to Hopkinsville too.

Let me know what jobs y’all have for him because this lesson is gonna stick one way or another.
