Ok, so today in regional Vic we had 2 hours notice for a 2 week lock down back to the 5 reasons to leave home. Reading a politicians post just now I saw this…

Where are we going for our 5 reasons that we are drinking (I know we Aussies have a boozy reputation but c’mon man) but to then say you can’t remove your mask to do it? What a interesting filtration system

Never been so happy to live on an island as during this covid thing.

Beings that I was “grounded “ I stayed home and rebuilt my evaporator cooler in the front house. New bearings, evaporator pads, pulleys and a good cleaning inside and out. It works 100% better than it did yesterday!

Your whole country is an island.

Sorry Lady Red, I have forgotten where you are based. Are you prepping for Hurricane Hanri?
I am busy trying to clear enough of the garage to fit the car in and fastening down anything that can blow away. Trouble is it is unbelievably humid so I keep needing to rest and cool down.
Hope I get done in time and good luck for your preparations too!

Well, I spoke too soon. This is not a great day for Ruby. I would love to get some more fluid and/or maybe bird formula into her, but her digestive system is very slow. She’s still got whole, unprocessed sunflower seeds coming through her poop from yesterday. That means her crop isn’t emptying. This is the most bizarre, cold August California day I can remember in my entire life. The sun has yet to show itself and right now it’s only 64°. The next five nights are supposed to be 50°, so I may have to keep Ruby inside for a couple nights, even though I was so excited to see her roost yesterday. I will reevaluate later. I just saw her do liquid poop, so maybe her system is starting to move along a bit.

I feel the same about Adelaide.
