Weather here isn;t great. DH is working on the boat trying to get it all painted up and ready for the fishing. We will see how it goes.
It is a pitty its not warmer then we could launch her and get some fish. Its just when the weather isn;t good here its quite rough waters so the smaller boats don;t go out.

I am pretty tired today. Danny never sleeps at all. Ben the other twin is just giving more bother than he is worth and wee Jessy is here today. She is saying BUP and holing her hands out to be lifted. She also says BA BA BOP which I think means grandad Bob. SHe says MA MA ans DA DA and BA BA but no sign on Granny quite yet!!!!
She is standing up at the sofa and all that so she is quite good for 9 months!!!! We got her a cage!!!

Better go cause she is crying and I need coffee!!!!!

Good morning, folks. Had two cups of coffee so far, and ready to focus. I played hooky today to watch the eggs in the 'bator and under the broodies. I hope I counted the days correctly. I included the day I set them, which might not be accurate. But last time that's how I counted and they hatched out on the day I figured. Since they aren't my eggs, I feel I need to be sure the broodies don't freak out when they hatch. I haven't heard any peeping yet, but a few of the eggs in the bator are jiggling.

Now that I've done some cleaning up it is time to work on updating my resume and making a few contacts. I do believe I may still have a job next year, but I don't know if I'll still be doing what I want to be doing in the school system. I'm going ahead with the plan to open my own practice with my friend at least part time.

Sorry to hear about your cow, Karl. Sometimes I feel like I should get my son a dog when I watch him trying to play 'fetch' with the cat, but then I get on BYC and decide against it.

Here is our aviary so far - we made good progress this weekend -

The pond turned green within days, so BF is working on getting the algae out. The ducks don't seem to care.....

Thanks.. hoping to get the shade cloth roof up when BF gets home. Wait till this summer when I have time to build my southeast Asian inspired coop!

Should I be concerned that I don't hear any peeping yet? Ginger just suddenly go off her nest and sang the egg song, than got back on. Very strange - I don't remeber Sunshine ever donig that, and I've seen Ginger do it a few times. Really do hope at least one chick hatches under each one today just so I can keep an eye on the crazy sisters.
