Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[RoyalChick]

Do you have a runway in your backyard, RC ? I would come.

No. But I am very near several airports. So much so that I am hooked on an app called Flightradar24 which tells you what plane is directly overhead and where it is going etc.
I notice that only some of the private jets reveal who they belong to or where they are going, and helicopters never tell you what they are, but the commercial airlines are still fun to identify.

On July 31, we started to put the two babies in the same coop as the adults. Every night I had to throw them inside as they scream murder, and I get pecked by the adults. Tonight, I couldn't find them in the run!!! They were roosted nicely inside all by themselves. Yay for complete integration.

I need a runway at least 850 ft to take off and land the SkyHawk.

You can land in my neighbours bean field !

My plane is a single engine prop plane. And Flightradar24 would show up my plane as flying over you going

I’m kidding as usual

Bad news today. Queen Elizabeth 2 passed away today. All honors to the Royal Family and the loss of the world’s greatest matriarch!

I have all this property, money, great toys, wonderful pets and some good friends. None of those assets stopped me from becoming sick. (The term “can’t take it with you “ seems to apply to me. And I’m so bored, I’m double tipping my Uber eats and shopping people. (And hiding away out back with the chooks) this is no way to live!

Yes, I’m getting phone calls from the shopping person. Asking if this product is what I want, or that product is what I want. They don’t want to make any mistakes I guess. (But they usually do anyways)

Every test kit will tell you not to test without the presence of symptoms. You must combine symptoms with the result in order to arrive at a correct diagnosis. That is the only way the sensitivity and specificity of the test can be relied upon.

One should have serious symptoms that align with Covid before testing. Testing at any sniffle is counterproductive.

You are not really testing too early. The problem is still based upon not getting a good sample. Testing later results in a much higher amount of virus being present. That allows for a lower quality sample to still test positive because of the higher likelihood of gathering the virus despite poor technique.

Does that make sense?

Yes, I understand this as you've explained it, thanks, viral load and sample quality. Also, masks - you're right, the consequences of telling people to wear masks would have been to deprive health care workers of vital equipment. It's so sad.

Would you really drive all the way here for a shindig? If so, you are definitely on my invite list!!
Meanwhile, back to pest control.

You should know me well enough by now. I absolutely would!

At least Maggie benefited from the baby mice. About the size of my thumbnail.

I am very glad they did not go to waste!
