She's a red pyle old english game bantam crossed with porcelain d'uccle so two beautiful little breeds, and hopefully she settles into the life of luxury she now has.

I wanted to call her cinnabun but it doesn't seem right for her.

I don’t know Jenn. She looks like a Tootie to me. Rooty tootie fresh and fruity!

Steaming mad! the repair of the fence was done improperly. Putting stress on the gate posts. I don’t like chain link fences per se, but “it is what it is” borrowing a quote from PonyPoor.
Now my gate is hanging up and hard to open. I have to wait until Monday to get the contractor back out to effect repairs.
Poor workmanship and dissatisfaction tax:

Congratulations! You've joined the ranks of disgruntled customers at the mercy of shoddy workmanship!

In all the yrs we've remodeled plus the dubious pleasure of once building a new home I've never seen a job well done! Contractors book your job who in turn sub-contract a plumber, electrician, roofer, painter, cabinetmaker, window installer, etc, who they in turn hire general laborers standing in front of Home Depot who are the only guys you will ever see at your residence & don't really care how well things are built (well, it's not THEIR place, is it?). And the main 1st contractor may or may never come by to inspect or do quality control . Heaven forbid if a contractor ever even answers their phone in a timely manner or else you get endless msg machine tones!

We've had brand new fiberglass tubs installed w/ a giant hole in front that looked like a boot had kicked it open, we had a staircase w/ plywood holes so big the knots were falling out of the steps, visibly warped walls/ceilings, overhead attic door cut in the wrong room from the architect's plans, window glass that cracked from framing stress, leaking roof after the first rain, & I can go on & on & on & on.

Rant Tx ~ find the 3 Silkie pullets

Whoa Nelly - is that pot plants or potted plants?! FYI both are legal up here btw….

Here are some lovely plants I am enjoying

My peaches are coming along nicely should be good next week as long as it stays hot to ripen them fully.

Almost ripe!

How about nutmeg? Similar color to cinnamon, but spicier? Name might fit her better, no? Or maybe eggnog? She looks like she will have a bit of creamy colouring with the 'cinnamon' sprinkling - so manybe eggnog - creamy & spicy???

I can’t seem to get motivated to go do chores…. But it’s need to get at it…
