Yay Miss Lucy. Sounds as though you have a bunch of teenagers there!

Any of the law enforcement cute?

As for the picture... it's a BAB (big a .. bell!)

Love you

Yeah, my kid kids behaved better than these hooligans.

Um, the deputy was a woman, so ????

Love you more

An entertaining shit show! Thank you for sharing it with us. Glad everyone is doing better. As far as the mystery object goes, seems too decorative to be a bell, sooo I’m going to guess it’s a mold for making mud pies! 😂

Happy to hear Miss Lucy seems to be doing better. What are her favorite cookies?

I am also guessing the heavy object was meant to be slipped over a child’s head to protect him or her from bad ideas. Do I win?

Thank you. Right now her favorites are oatmeal, or the crunchy belvita breakfast biscuits in coconut flavor.

That is a most excellent guess!

You sound much more cheerful (if stressed) than recently, which is good to hear.

As to that bell-thing: perhaps a counterweight to lift a bale of hay into place? I can’t judge how large it is.

So happy to hear Lucy has improved! That thing is a very pretty doorstop (no matter what it was originally intended for) 😉

Oh those darned "sheep-nanigans"!!! You hear so much about goats being escape-artists, but no one warns you that sheep can be every bit as wiley!

I've no idea what the "thing" is...but I agree that it looks like some kind of weighted anchor thingamajigger....

Yup they can be as big a bunch of boogers as goats can be.

Thank you for your excellent guess! Thank you for the restack!

I’m stumped! It looks like the grooved block that you’d use for making rope (where the plies run along the groove and is spun by the loop on the end) - but I don’t think that’s it, because that would be an anchor-chain of a rope!
