"Yessir, yessir, three bags full..."

Ah, youth...why is it wasted on the young? :gig

I'm going to have a talk with the Dominiques about their side jobs... Maybe they can change the oil in my car? :plbb

Once the dew on the "grass" dried I was just going to mow the ditch, but after getting it done I started mowing the slope from the ditch side. And I kept going... I found my azaleas! ⬆️ The maple sapling in the middle will be tackled later. 🪓 Left side is what the right side looked like...

9:45am The one on the left is the plastic egg... :yesss: I'm overheated from mowing, cooling down inside right now, but will check again in about an hour.

How's Eva doing? Is she pregnant?

I call it "puttering" :D =D

Exactly. I just meant to tighten the door... I'm planning on checking for eggs every hour today, or as close as possible.

Thanks. I just want to keep my flocks safe (AND get eggs).

Up early, then coffee. Abour 9am headed out with DS to refer him to the new credit union I just joined. We each get $25 for the referral. The credit union I was a member of for 25 years was sold to a Federal CU, and the transfer of all accounts was supposed to be handled over last weekend and...

Addendum... ..."Just where do you think you're going?"

So... ...next Saturday (June 14th) DS & I are planning to drive to Kentucky, to visit with DD, DSIL, and both granddaughters. I wanted to make chicken sitting as easy as possible for our DF (Dear Friend). Knowing that the door on the second coop was dragging a little I went outside to "fix the...

Wow. I once drove Dayton, OH to Manchester, CT in one day. I recall being exhausted, sitting in a daze at my inlaws' place. Internet says that was 750 miles. I rarely drive more than 500 miles, now, I know my limitations. ETA: it's just over 500 miles to meet with my grandchildren, DD, DSIL...

On the home front... Sweet potato has sprouted! I've not gotten ONE EGG in 4 or 5 days from the Dominique coop. I've been looking, no eggs, no evidence of broken shells, no signs of an intruder (snake). I'm baffled. I took Naomi off the nest so I could check under the boxes. She'd not gone...

Wow, nifty idea!

If you want, tell Cassandra that I wasn't able to spend the night with friends or at Girl Scout camp until I was 12. It was UTIs and related issues that was apparently the reason for my wetting issues.

Thank you. This is a joke...but... :hide

I collect coffee grounds at work for my compost bin. Filters are fine, but I can't do pods. A few years ago we used coffee filters with coffee inside. They had red plastic tape to hold it together. It didn't decompose, so I still find red plastic bits in my compost pile.
