Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Aussie-Chookmum]

Rich is doing well. His testing showed that his entire GI track is very angry and irritated but no significant changes.

The colonoscopy showed everything looks good no tissue death from the aneurysm, which is wonderful! That means no surgery on his bowel.

He is back to a full diet and as long as every thing says the same he'll be home tomorrow.

That's great to hear CCCL. Are there any theories as to how his GI got so irritated?
I hope Rich keeps improving in leaps and bounds.

Hi friends. Most of you know we are renters (in the Great Recession, we lost a luxury home we built because the market crashed before we could get certificate of occupancy to sell, but that’s another story.) I have fully embraced the humble life. I grew up in a very comfortable family in a wealthy town, I’m educated... I never imagined myself in this position. However, I am grateful. I can survive on very little, and I really feel I have my priorities straight. I love this rustic setting with chicken poop everywhere, overgrown pasture and putting my dirty bare feet right on the earth.

However, renting has its drawbacks. The woman who owned this property passed away recently. I’ve been dreading this day, as I LOVE living here. Her nephew, the primary beneficiary, would like for things to stay the same, but there are multiple parties on the trust, and they may eventually have to sell. I will continue on embracing every moment. We have every local predator, and the place is ridden with termites and sometimes rats. But I love it and wish I could buy it.

I want my beloved birds to live out their days here. And my doggo. She’s a border collie... total country dog. Most importantly... my kids, especially my daughter. This has been home for twelve years, and she is seventeen. Please send your thoughts and prayers that we get to stay here a long time to come.

Hoping really hard that you can stay where you love.

(and that you get a windfall so you can buy the place! )

We watched this in music class the other week, the kids loved it and I keep forgetting to share it!

I love Walk off the Earth. The key of Awesome (I think) did a send up of their cover of Gotye's "Somebody that I used to know" and that's how I discovered both Gotye and Walk off the Earth.

You got it Michelle. I understand and have lived part of your situation as we rented this house a long time before we got lucky and things aligned for us to buy it.

I really hope things work out for you.

Chicken tax

Really? I love spinach! What a California girl I must be... sautéed spinach, creamed spinach, spinach in salad... when my son was little (long before fresh eggs!) he didn’t know eggs came any other way besides scrambled with spinach in them. (He also didn’t know grilled cheese came with fake cheese, on white bread without broccoli, as his were sharp cheddar on whole wheat WITH broccoli! )

I'm gagging on all the spinach.

Rental market is nuts here, too.

Praying for you here. There's been such an upheaval for so many of us what with our homes and health.

I hope you get to keep your home, or you find something equally as good

Wow! I can’t imagine going to bed at 8:00pm. Lucky you! I hope you get a good rest.

I can barely keep my eyes open after 9pm! It is age I think
