Rest well plz. Hope it's a short flu!

Jenn doesn’t deserve to be sick
The flu isn’t fun at all.

You all should see how I’m treated by my chooks. I bring out a can of corn for them, but when I run out of corn, the roo says “That’s it ladies, he’s got no more treats, follow me and leave him alone!”
Happens every time I try to be nice. They dine and dash!

They leave me with these round things, but I’m not sure what to do with them?

I’m kidding of course:

Not a joke ~ that's a CRIME! Red Robin Restaurant sit down style, $15 avg combo burgers w/fillings like grilled onions, avocado slices, chili, jalapenos, choices of cheeses like pepper-jack/swiss/mozarella, choices of chicken, ground beef or turkey burgers, fancy sauces, choice of potato fries w/toppings or sweet tater fries, & drink choices ~ PLUS refills all you can eat regular or sweet fries, sauces, drinks.

Even w/waiter tip you don't leave feeling hungry or ripped off! The fast foods are charging more & giving out less ~ just try to get all you can eat refill fries at MickeyDD's ~ & the fries don't even come w/toppings of any kind.

Tax ~ M is not for Mary, it's . . . . .

The food there was still pretty good but last time I had it it did not feel the same.

I also overate slightly and came off with heartburn (I think).

Heartburn at MickeyDD's or Red Robin?

I just heard from my hanger attendant friend, that someone spilled AV fuel all over the runway at my little airport. That’s going to take forever to get cleared up. Glad I didn’t have plans to fly out today.
Such a bummer when stupid mistakes happen. (AV fuel softens the tarmac)
Fuel spill tax:

Thanks for the info. I will be investigating....and probably getting one. As a handicrafter, my hands take a workout.

In other news, started a fire in the stove this morning. Really should have last night, but too tired to do the set up and wait for it to catch well. This morning, we tested things out, and initially, it looked like we'd need to get a sweep out for the chimney. Then we realized we'd forgotten of open the air while the fire caught. All working great now.

Poor Nellie in the middle isn't moulting as hard as her first moult, but she's close.View attachment 3971122

Poor sweetie, I feel for them when they moult. I am thrilled to see Misty getting her feathers in.

Tip:

Get some of these, place one in the stove, place some kindling in there and a chunk of log on top of that, guaranteed 30 min later it will be toasty warm.

I have used something similar to these many times and they are great.

I needed something to comfort me, so I invited CeeCee in for a snack.

Red Robin.

I haven't been to Red Robin since Covid however DH brings home an order of Sweet Potato fries for me & those are great ~ however chili or jalapeno's or anything spicy I can't handle any more. We have plenty of other sit-down restaurants around here that far surpass any processed menu at Mickey's w/ enough food to bring home in a doggie bag.

Tax ~ Speckled Leghorn compost crock

Our living Leghorn: she had to be our most intelligent breed to date. Had many sweet breeds but she was naturally smart & intuitive. A natural alpha that never pecked to establish leadership. She had a protective instinct toward the Silkies.
