Goslings of 2014 Hatch-a-long

I'm in no rush for geese. The 2 I have are happy together. If she keeps it up I'll swap her eggs for goose ones or like you say, wait for another to go broody.
I resisted, put my hat on and got out there. Til now! Mmm coffee! ;)


Morning, got up early today, I am very nervous. My coffee is brewing, and now I am going to change the goslings and chickens water. I will be out most of today, so my babies will be locked up a lot today. But it can't be helped, I need to set up a donations account at my bank and do an interview with a news crew about what happened at our neighbors to ask people do donate. I am a chatterbox in informal settings, but I am very nervous about the interview. :oops:
 
Wow! You guys have been chatty today!! I will have to go back and read up on everyone's news, but I had to post my news. I know this has nothing to do with geese or hatching goslings, but all my favorite byc friends are on this thread and so please forgive me for the off topic post.

I have officially lost my mind! I was working with my vet today, who is doing research at the University, and he brought in a donated pigeon for his work. The girl was obviously hatched/hand raised and was very pet-like and I was troubled that she was going to be euthanized for science. Then, while doing a series of tests before procedure, a machine broke and they could not finish tests. He saw I felt bad for the bird and asked if I wanted her. So here she is, hanging out in my large dog kennel at home until I figure out what to do with her.
J you did the right thing there, how could you not fall in love with that face, look at those eyes.

Yeah I'm terrified. I want to do this to help him, but I Really wish there was another way. I must remember to breathe during the interview or I may pass out on camera. Which would be mortifying.

Also, I stopped wearing makeup years ago, but have a cold sore on the corner of my mouth, any ladies know tricks to cover that? I still have my full makeup kit, and it's still good to use, just very rusty on application. God, who would have guessed I'd be putting women's war paint on again! :th I don't want to look like a country bumpkin on camera when I'm asking for people's help though.

Can't live without brewed coffer, espresso and dark roasts are my favorite. Give me an IV of the stuff.

Yeah, I reckon you´ll do fine with your two...I have just a suspicion that Moose is a girl, so that´d make it ok whatever MMMM turns out to be.

Haha, funny. I´m a country bumpkin too, all I know is that there exists a thing called 'concealer'. If you pass out on camera, it´ll just make it even more memorable! And x2 on the coffee!

Ok, I'm going to sound like a moron. But I thought concealer was for bags under your eyes? It can be used for other blemishes too? If so I'm gonna get some.

Now let's hope I can remember how to apply all this gunk to my face. My dad calling it women's war paint is right on in my opinion.

My passing out may make it more memorable, but this isn't about me. It's to help an 86 year old man who lost everything. He has no money, no home, no possessions besides what we gave him. The house was not insured and he has no where to go. I would much rather people remember that, than some country bumpkin passing out because she forgot to breathe.
 
Thanks for the compliments on my new bird. She is very pretty! I'm still not sure if I will keep her as I have a couple of friends with pigeons who have offered to take her and I am not really set up for pigeons. But for now, she is doing well in our spare bedroom and we are in no hurry to make any major decisions about her.

While it might not be about you, passing out on camera could be to HIS benefit. People would think something was seriously wrong with YOU (heart attack, stroke, etc.,) and be more willing to donate for the BOTH of you. But you, in turn, could choose to just pass it all on to him.
