Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

It’s a 2fer

I just Love how much fluff is in Snow’s pantaloons

Sad news is my hula hoop purchase to try tricks with Belle will have to wait until I’m allowed to go out. Don’t think it comes under essential buying as a reason to leave the house

Oh no! I hope I didn’t steal your thunder!

No worries, it's your thunder too mcstrachan.

Personally I'm still gobsmacked that Alice won ahead of some of the other contestants, including your Ester. There was some pretty stiff competition!

Apparently it was Webster that was responsible for most of the changes to the spelling. He thought that letters like ‘u’ in words like ‘colour’ and ‘honour’ were pointless and if an ‘s’ sounded like a ‘z’, then make it a ‘z’!

It’s always fun teaching a class of 5-7 year olds the spelling patterns of the English language. So many sounds that each letter can make, then sometimes there’s the magic ‘e’ on the end you don’t sound out.
It’s a beautiful challenge that I revel in and when a tricky one clicks with some of them it’s such a ‘win’ of a day!!

Ummmm... B.C. Canada there were more people employed in that industry here than in fishing, mining, and logging combined back in the early 2000’s if my memory serves. And now it’s legal here too. Everyone with a yard, balcony, or some pots can grow their own. It’s gone from a cottage industry, to big business, And is now on par with home brewing beer! Yes, we can legally buy marijuana here, but not fish mox???

Yep, our society is spiraling down. Out of control! (I despise drugs. Legal or not)

Wait... is that pool water in the photo totally untouched???

It is. I have no idea how it happened!

Let me know when the thunderstorms pass, (lightning scares me)

Tiny terror Karen has found her manager. The little devil still wants nothing to do with me, but for over 20 minutes now has happily been perched on my daughter. Willingly mind you, she's currently on her shoulder as I type this. Ungrateful little brat.

Makes perfect sense.

They are outstanding pantaloons! Enjoy your time at home.
