So glad on Hattie and love the picture of the grain in your footstool.

Sometimes us older, bigger ladies feel a bit achy in our joints. We are allowed to hobble and complain a bit!
I use height so everyone can get some corn. Aurora takes everything on the ground. Or at least tries to.
 
Mugs from this week: they were surprisingly cooperative...unlike the fluffy ones...

I just had to include that last one. 😁

Good News on Hattie

So far she is walking pretty good this morning.
My goodness, can Hattie stretch when she wants to!:gig That is such a keeper of a pic as she is being so dainty despite stretching to her max!! Such a lady🥰

Oh, and that last pic - look at his ears & paws. I think He'll give Eoywen a run for his money size wise when he is an adult! Such a sweet face :love

I must stay strong.

She did awesome didn't she 😁 and her feather babies are reaping the rewards 💖💖💖💖

Fyi my farmer neighbour loved his dairy cows, his favourite Mandolin was permitted to roam at large and she would regularly have friends along for company hahaha not all farmers are like 'those that shan't be named'.
Yeah, but with chickens I’ve found the overwhelming solution to most medical issues is very quick, and involves no rehabilitation. Unless you’re crazy like me and take in every injured, sick, or stray animal that you can… lol
 
I worked in IT in retail (Sears) in advertising effectiveness and target marketing 🤗.

It's all about knowing who you are targeting and how to advertise to them. Here's how it goes for facial recognition:

Your face is pictured in the store wherever you go whatever aisle you go down. Whatever items you pick up look at stop in front of etc.

Then when you check out your face is also pictured and matches to your credit card or debit card.

So now they know who you are, what you bought, and what caught you eye.

Now they can target you online and with snail mail with advertising that maybe what you like.

So my suggestion is to wear your mask (I am wearing mine all the time now not only for this reason, but because at work no one can see my facial expressions haha), and use cash rather than credit/debit.

Also don't stop and linger by things you may purchase or want if you don't want to be targeted. Do what I do, every aisle I stop and pick some random item up... Or look at something random. AI is good but not perfect 😊 they can only track trends. Say you buy the same brand of bread every week.

But if you don't really care or appreciate getting sales alerts for the items you use then your good go!

This is why I never use my phone for banking or email, I have a dedicated laptop with security for that. My phone is for phone calls texts and all my peeps on BYC 🤗.

You are under surveillance all the time - if you drive a newer vehicle data is being collected on how you drive, and can be used as a black box in the event of a collision; in a store; on a telephone; in an public place; etc etc....

The only place you are not surveillance is a bathroom 😆

Heck I have cams in the barn, I am sure anyone with half way decent hacking skills can hack in and watch me belting out 'in the jungle the mighty jungle' to my chickens 😆
😂😂😂
They can track me all they want! Those twelve or so times a year I leave the farm and do a random huge shop… what I love is the phone/internet advertising I used to see, I kind of miss the ads they were so interesting at times. Goat anti mating aprons, comfy cow stall leaning things for dairy barns, oh look shiny glass beads, cordless tools! For a while there is kept trying to sell me yachts and RV’s, ummm sorry phone the RV isn’t really a lifestyle choice at this point. Mostly I found them entertaining, because the things I actually do impulse buy are things like Oil, power steering, transmission, and brake fluids! 😂 and Caulking guns, I seem to collect those. Can never find one when I need it, until I buy a replacement, then they all pop back out. I’m convinced they have some sort of sentience and are planning on taking over my garage trailer!
