Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Ponypoor]

I don’t really watch the news anymore, we disconnected our radio as it was draining the RV batteries slowly

Yup all doom n gloom.

But you do check it out in the morning.

Tend to spend more time on the weather network hahaha hoping it's summer.....

Good decision. It's only ever sad news anyway.

WAIT!

How do you watch the news on a radio?

Descriptive audio of course!

I live in a very small town. If there is anything going on, I hear about it word of mouth anyways.

Yep as it always is!

You kidding, I have Rocks-Anne in a headlock. (Actually she hides her head in there)

Ok caught me… technically we stopped “watching” the news a Long time ago, even before we gave up our TV services, because it was either irrelevant fluff or sensationalized garbage, then in 2017 with no cable/satellite we stopped “watching” anything really except old tv series. Then in 2019 I found the radio was putting a phantom draw on our electrical so it went too. I suppose I meant “watch” as in just staying up on current events… if something big happens someone local usually says something about it and then I might look into it. But the days of sitting down with a daily newspaper or the evening new program on the television, or even tuning into CBC are mostly over here. It’s just too much.

I relax for a bit before doing evening chores, and watch reruns of Murder She Wrote , probably seen them a million times, but it's good fun.

Every now and then I watch a few other CBC or BBC murder mystery shows ... But truthfully, I get up so early I just can't take the time.... Work rules my life, like the horses and chickens

Looks like she's kicking (biting) your butt

Collected these two girls Saturday morning from a local breeder 21 and 22wks old. Both Orpingtons, the buff at the back I've named Penny and the jubilee is Bertha (my husband named her, her full name is Big Bertha ).

Beautiful
