I can't believe that we're in the last week of February. Times flies so incredibly fast. We're awaiting the birth of another lamb, but it may be a week or more until the big day.I think Wendell is ready for spring. I regret that I was unable to get a clear picture of the boy. We have a large round bale of hay in the horse pasture. The other horses eat around the edge of the bale, but Wendell likes to stand near it and eat as close to the middle as possible. He has eaten in the same place so often, that there is a large hole at the top of the bale. Now when he eats, he sticks his head down in the hole. It looks like he's pretending to be an ostrich! If you're new to Chats, each week I post 5 questions. You can answer the questions on your blog and add it to the link at the bottom of the page. Then visit other bloggers and share ideas. QUESTIONS 1. Is there a room in your home that you'd like to redecorate or remodel? 2. Did you watch the Oscars? 3. How many pair of blue jeans do you own? 4. What was your favorite toy as a child? 5. If you could visit a country in Europe, which would you choose? My answers:

1. Yes. My kitchen. It's on the to-do list. We were going to totally remodel it, but we will only be painting and getting a new floor.
2. No. I'm just not interested. Please indulge me while I get on my soapbox. If you disagree, please don't throw tomatoes at me. They're  terrible here in the Us this time of year! I feel that the US worship of TV stars, movie stars, music people, and sports personalities is crazy. There is lots of good entertainment out there (some not so good). I feel that these people are paid way over the top and given way to high a status. I'd prefer to give better pay and credit to someone cares for those in need, defends freedoms we value, or makes life better for hard working folks. Enough said. Thanks for letting me get that out. :)
3. About ten. I love my blue jeans. One pair is black, two are tan, and the rest are various shades of blue. Some are ratty and some are quite nice. I have a few jean skirts too. 
4. I loved dolls. I was also fond of stuffed toys. I had over a dozen that wanted to have with me at all times. I hear stories that I would move the "crew" of stuffies and dolls from room to room as I went. Apparently, I could never go anywhere in the house quickly, since this took more than one trip to carry everyone. It makes me laugh to think of a little person doing that. I hear it was a few  years that I did that.
5. I would visit anywhere in Europe. I guess my first choice would be the UK. I have been to England twice. I would love to see Ireland, Scotland, and Wales.
