Every day I wake up thinking, Today's the day we'll get our Henhouses up! Or at least far enough along so's we can be moving in but then when we test things, we find a glitch in the security part of that section or some such thing. And yes, we're keeping track of your merit badge questions as well and we promise we'll get those answered soon I hope! Thanks for your patience, but if the truth be known, I'm running out of mine. I can't wait to see your farmgirl decor and flair in all its glory. Incubation! I guess a hatch of this size takes the time it takes.

MaryJane, Carol and everyone else who is working on the Henhouses-
I know that they are going to so amazing! It is such an amazing gift you are giving us all. I know we are all anxious and champing at the bit (so to speak) to see the result, but it's only because we know that anything you send our way, MaryJane, is going to be so wonderful. I know that I will just sit on my hands . . . . (wait...that makes typing hard...) and just hang on until the grand opening happens! You are so sweet to go through so much effort to give us such a wonderful gift.
Thank You just isn't enough, but to avoid sounding sappy I'll just have to say it again...Thank you!!

MaryJane- It's a huge load to get it done right and I know you lose sleep over small details
I somehow am the leader of a small group of ladies,locally, and there is not a day that I don't feel the load of doing right by each of them.Your load must be multiplied many times over.
Take comfort in knowing that we are patient and happy for the small things! It would pain any of us to think you would lose your own calm and peaceful spirit to accomplish the many tasks at hand.
We will all still be here when things do work out and those bugs are all gone.
God Bless!
Blessings,
Autumn

All good things are worth waiting for, and wait we will. :) In the meantime we can busy ourselves with earning our badges! And you can relax a bit knowing we understand completely!
Have a Happy Christmas and enjoy time with your family!

Mary Jane,
Wishing you a merry Christmas and don't even think about the henhouses over the holidays. Just enjoy your family and the more important things right now. I know it feels like we are all family but we understand and are busy ourselves so we don't expect you get this done tomorrow. We as farmgirls know how to exercise patience I would hope. It's best if our Queen Bee not be stressed out.
Take care,
Denise

Dear Queen Bee,
We are delighted at the pr0spect 0f 0ur w0nderful hen h0uses, but building can take a while. Each day brings a new challenge 0r tw0 0r three, and y0u y0u w0nder if it will ever be d0ne. Rest assured it will get d0ne in due time. Building pr0jects d0 n0t g0 as planned as many 0f us have experienced. N0 fretting, just take nice deep breaths......then cluck at the t0p 0f y0ur lungs t0 let th0se frustrati0ns 0ut. L0L
I agree with my w0nderful farmgirl buddies, g0 enj0y the family, take a break, watch the sn0w fall f0r a bit, y0u and y0ur crew.
Enj0y the h0lidays and Merry Christmas t0 y0u and all y0ur family.
Car0l Sue

WooHoo! We have a few mud hens who are "visiting" and checking out the new henhouses so's to give us some valuable feedback on its nestability. They'll wiggle the latches, adjust the volume, yanno. They're also going to pick out some colors for the walls so Carol can give that section of our website a look that is different from the rest of our forum. She'll do that the week after Christmas. We're thinking black and red like our badges. That's when the rest of you hens can start moving in...the Bees without Borders, etc. But anyhoo, the mud hens are over there right now having a bit of tea. Go see!

Thank You, MaryJane!

If it's any consolation, the same happened to me today when I was first trying to check it out. There are still bugs in the system to work out and they will get worked out, just going to take a bit of tinkering. I Don't EVEN understand the technical bits
Wishing you joy in small things and peace in your heart

What happens when you all click on that bottom link (see below)?
.....(We're just getting started on the Henhouses, but you can see a sample here: http://www.maryjanesfarm.org/HenHouseSnitz/ )
When I click on it, it takes me to the Mud Hen Hen House. I'm a Mud Hen member, so I don't know if that has anything to do with it or not. I do know this, I'm excited about it!

It takes me to the Mud Hen Hen House too - but I'm not in that chapter. When I put in my user name and password it says they are incorrect.
