But I can also hear humor ,joy and love for the life that you have. No one can tell you what you need to do. Only you, your hubby ,along with your children can decide. I can only say it is never foolish to follow a dream. If we don't ever set out, we will never achive our ultimate destination. Such easy platitude but I truly believe it. Your family is richer for the things you do, for the chances you take on happiness. I'm sure you will be guided, taken care of, and blessed during your continued search. <br>Mean while you could tell the landlord your boarding the chickens for a friend :)Andylynnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04634072460146378411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3534240.post-21050391303964319482008-07-15T15:58:10.084-07:002008-07-15T15:58:10.084-07:00Oh, it's too bad that you are not looking in K...Oh, it's too bad that you are not looking in Kentucky. There are lots of nice houses here under a million bucks. And chickens (and other livestock of all kinds) are "de rigueur" here. Nothing overlooking the Pacific of course, but we do have a "yacht club" on the Ohio River with fake palm trees that light up at night!judy in kyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05810068743975026564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3534240.post-14128830598085745312008-07-15T16:03:45.148-07:002008-07-15T16:03:45.148-07:00How about the same strategy as for your cats?

I don't know what your family career circumstances are, but can you consider another state to live in? I know in some areas of Texas you can buy a mansion with ACREAGE for much, much less than a million. We'd love to have you'll in our state :)<br><br>I'm sorry you're feeling pressured about having your chicas. I know you don't want to have to explain anything to the landlord, but perhaps he can be 'educated' about the wholesome goodness of having chickens, ie., they add wonderful compost ingredients to the landscape, free range eggs are healthy- you don't want to have health issues down the road, they are just wonderful creatures and make great pets, etc. I know, I know, I'm being too optimistic that he would understand.<br><br>Well, you do homeschool....soooo.. they're a science project for your kids.<br><br>I will certainly be keeping your family in my prayers, that the Lord touch the landlord's heart to understand that the chickens are harmless, and that soon you will find the place of your dreams.YayaOrchidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12903215880257353340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3534240.post-77619350392658975302008-07-15T19:08:34.862-07:002008-07-15T19:08:34.862-07:00If I may comment again, I think the "science ...If I may comment again, I think the "science project" idea has promise. <br>Seriously, I wish you well in finding a happy home for you and your chicks.
