Is it something with we obscure folk who adore chickens? I don't know, right, but so soon after joining--I see Seychelles (dang it when I'm working with this mobile phone! Delete that word? Not what I had intended. Bah, leave it. See what halogens.. nooo... see what bairns... nooo see what fondant----noooo! See what happens. Ah finally, HAPPENS! And there was Christmasy peace and satisfaction all around).
I had meant to say, I see so much warmth, so much humor. So many really open hearts and minds. There is a real patience to you (like the kind that comes from watching quiet and gentle through winter for little hatchings, fine are those Winter hopefuls); a good nature (like that which comes from bearing long with a sick little hen).
I don't know if I ever felt so immediately a part of any flock as I do here. (So used to the past in which Facebook would limit my account or suspend it for not much really, then want my licence? Ha, give me yours first). I thank all of you for that. See? You really did make this total stranger feel like he was always a part, just had stepped out a while. And he's glad to be here or, in a sense, back.
I hope always to help, to hear, to keep that warm vibe going, those good vibes. So, finally out of words, (who me?) I send out a big Thank you to all of you
