Fuzzy's Farm

The Life of Pigeon This is the story I wrote as a sort of memorial to my recently deceased hen. I would appreciate it if you would read it and let me know what you think, especially since I am desperately trying to be a good story writer!

Hannah, that was really very well written, and certainly describes your feelings in a totally sincere manner. The only criticism, and it's minor, is repetition of words. I noticed a couple of times you used the same words in adjacent sentences. It would read a little more professionally if you could choose a new word. For example, "finally" is used a lot towards the end; perhaps you could have chosen another word, like "eventually" in the second sentence. Other than that I think you have a real talent for describing emotional events.

Thank you. I will look at that, and see how I can improve it. I certainly want my stories to be as good as they can be.

I made up my mind about my job, i'm letting it go. It really pains me because i was so sure if it, and the pay was better than i ever will get again anytime soon; however aside from the my boss being horribly moody and inappropriately angry (No, not just regular mad, talking loudly about wishing to shoot "someone" while looking at ME is inappropriate and childish) This last incident involves the staff outside the kitchen not following infection control, on a really huge and important issue. To the point i'm pretty scared about it all. Can't say no more, but it takes a lot to scare me.

No job is worth your health, i had this drilled into me years ago by some very wise ladies who had done this and payed the price. Gonna have to drop down to factory again, but this time hopefully i get something better than bottom since i worked hard on my resume :)
 
Ok... I have been using 1/4 cup of ACV per gallon... I don't know where I got that amount to begin with, but now some one else somewhere else questioned me about using that much, and got me thinking, am I using to much... so, I go and look up who much it is, and I am using 2x the amount. Some people use as little at 1 tbls and other 2... Am I overdosing my birds do you think?
