Good morning and thanks for the hot coffee!
I think we have snow showers / snow until Tuesday. Probably not much accumulation, though, who knows.
I am glad that the chicks are growing and the flowers are blooming somewhere!
Enjoy the day, Cafe!

It feels like about the 4th consecutive Friday this week--I've thought every day that it was Friday, but it's finally here! Looking forward to digging out my rhubarb this weekend and celebrating our third kid's 18th with homemade sushi and chocolate cupcakes!

Thanks for the coffee and company, all!

Looking forward to digging out my rhubarb this weekend

Why are you digging it out? (Sorry if you already said and I missed/forgot.)

 

[growanstede]

I guess I should have specified that I was rescuing it because it got overgrown and gnarly last year, so I'm tending it. Digging it out from weeds!

Brought more coffee to share.
Cleaned the ash from trash burner.

physicality I need for a sustainable/rotating chicken population.
Barely have the get-up-and-go for the 13 remaining hens.

I can relate.

Due to age and declining health I gave up several of my favourite breeds that I had been breeding for decades, and sold the best of my breeding stock to other, younger breeders to continue.

At first it was not easy for me but with DH having suffered several strokes in recent years it was important to adjust priorities.

And reducing the amount of birds does have some advantages too:
Instead of having to clean the
of almost 200 it is now just the the droppings of 36

Coffee is ready on this chilly snowy morning.

I had a very busy day yesterday. Ran a bunch of errands with sis in the morning then took her to brunch. Got twisted when she refused to let me treat because it was my birthday. I explained that it was I that invited her to so I should pay. She then got the waitress involved and they ganged up on me and I lost!
After going home to run the dogs and do my own household tasks the whole family went meet at a local restaurant at 5 for my birthday dinner where I managed to win my case to pay the tip.
Then back to sister's house for gifts and Cold Stone Creamery ice cream cake. It was soooooo good!
Now it's back to work. But the manager is off on vacation this week so stress levels will be low today!

Happy Belated birthday! I have been so busy outside, not much internet time.

Cafe good morning one and all!

Tea is ready.

Temperature is in the 30s.

I don't understand what has happened to our weather.

Have a great day!

The shingles are giving me a hassle, not fun.

Sorry you're suffering!
