The Garters Take Over

[GartersRock]

:(
I am so torn up. Because I really love my sub adult pair of Blood Pythons. They really are great snakes and exceptionally nice!! :cool: But the idea of selling them to make more room for the garters and for some cash to add garter stock was brought up and now I simply CAN'T keep them. ARGHH :eek: :mad:
So I am selling them... For the garters... But I am pissed. lol! I really wanted these guys. Grr!
Has anyone else had to sell a non garter project to fund the garters?

(by the way, check out their ad. ;) )

[Snake lover 3-25]

awww... that sucks!!!!! i actually had to do the opposite... my parents made me release my garters b4 i could buy my corn snakes.... worst mistake ever!!!!:(:(

[count dewclaw]

I don't have any other snakes to sell, but I am selling my horse stuff to be able to buy some garters. :rolleyes: I just hope there are still some nice baby garters left this year by the time I sell my stuff....

[Garter_Gertie]

Only thing I've sold's my soul. I have less than $50 to get me until the 18th thanks to Peepers and Jeepers!

[infernalis]

I didn't need to read that Gertie... Nightmares of you eatin cat food under a bridge next to a drum of burning papers, wearing fingerless gloves, oh no!! what have I done...

Well, as long as the snakes are spoiled:eek:

Imprudence often overrides rationale, eh ? Story of my life.....

[Snake lover 3-25]

lol o gertie!!!! how will you feed them????? or for that matter yourself!!!!!??????:eek:

[Garter_Gertie]

Yeah. LOL! Somehow I gotta squeese two carton of smokes ($39/each), cat litter, maybe lunches, beer and maybe a tank of gas ($45) outta that $50.

So, waiting on Jeepers and Peepers wouldn't have helped but a drop. In for a penny, in for a pound. Besides, patience is NOT a virtue o'mine. I'd rather be poor and happy with my squigglers, than poor and sad without them.

:D

Worms for the snakies... ramen noodles for Gertie Herself... LOL!

[Garter_Gertie]

Got food in cupboard, 'frig and freezer. The boys can eat worms for a week; ain't gonna hurt them.

Forgot to mention I need dog food. I only get the best NutroMax, +/- $35/bag. :D

I'm FAR more worried about the beer and smokes than anything else! LOL!!!

Actually, I can take back the cat food I got Sun, thinking it was cat food when it was dog food I needed. And can get dog food and P&J food. So that will be okay.

Poor Gertie!
Maybe Wayne should ship those snakies packed in the midst of a big basket full of beer and cigarettes!:D

[Garter_Gertie]

Anji, that would be the most WONDERFUL gift!!!!!!!!!!! Can you IMAGINE?!!! Smokes, BEER, and SNAKES!!!

[GartersRock]

Lol!
What horse stuff LeeAnn? A horse girl myself. :) I do Parelli.

Oh yeah. And on top of the blood pythons, I have been having to sell off my private collection of miniature equine art because I have a backlog of commissions and no new horses to sell. So all my personal collection is slowing dwindling away... Sigh.

(and for those who are wondering what the heck that is. Here's a good site to explain.. Equine Resin Directory (http://www.equineresindirectory.com) =D If you think garters can be expensive. =O

[Garter_Gertie]

Well. I just don't think "Rockster" fits a young lady, but... Who am *I* to say!

When I got my BLM horse, I was gonna do Parelli. (sigh)

[infernalis]

Poor Gertie!
Maybe Wayne should ship those snakies packed in the midst of a big basket full of beer and cigarettes!:D

UHGH New york state has the highest tax allowed by law on those very two items. Cigs are going for $7 a pack here....

[beaniesmommy]

Cigs are almost seven here too... I live in one of the highest taxed counties in the US. If gas prices keep going up all I will be able to do is sit around and drink Milwaukee's Best Ice (cheep) because I won't be able to drive anywhere.

:D

What horse stuff LeeAnn? A horse girl myself. :) I do Parelli.


The big item right now is a dressage saddle I never used...ordered the saddle, discovered I was pregnant, leased out horse for 2 years, was pregnant again, horse coliced and had to be put down...just don't see me getting back into horses anytime soon....I've been out of horses so long I had to look up what Parelli is :o. I've also been selling smaller bits of horse gear.

I also did the hunter/jumper bit.

[Garter_Gertie]

I took English lessons back in the Dark Ages when I was just starting to work. Gosh you two, my heart breaks for you.

LeAnn... Everytime I rode outside vs. inside, in the ring, I went over the jump before the horse did. :D The horse then jumped the jump and then ME! :D

Holy $h!T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I smoke an off brand and the carton is $38.XX and some change. I DON'T WANT TO READ YOU!!!! (with hands over eyes)

LeAnn. Same here on the gas. I can't afford $50 to fill the tank of a 1997 Escort. That's over FOUR HOURS of work for me. Near abouts, enkneeweigh. Plus/minus.

I've been trying to save (ROFLOLPMPCOOSBAGBBOMN!!!!!!!!) for a scooter as I only live 3 miles from work.

Oh, hell. Forget it. I come her to revel in my the love I have of my sweet baby Winnie, and The Boys I'm getting, and Kenabec.


This is my "Calgon, take me away," place.
