Granny's gone and done it again

Just came back from tending to the birds. I have one little bantam rooster that is driving me crazy. He survived a 'visit' with the cattle dogs a few years back. He escaped them wanting to use him as a squeaky toy by playing dead. He came out of the ordeal with some lost skin and an injured hip that pops in and out on him now.

So, I go into the coop and here is Hoppy down on the floor in a corner where he has been hanging out so I pick him up, put him in a large plastic box that I have mounted on top of the nesting boxes that I can put food in if I want to. I can also set a bowl of water up there for him also. I catch him, climb up using the roost bars and deposit him in the box. He's eating and drinking when I leave.

No sooner hit the main door and he's on the floor again. :he I would hate to have to put him in a pen by himself but it may be heading that way.
 
Quiet today.

See y'all tomorrow.
Have a blessed day, Blue. See you tomorrow night.
Shreck, you got this girl! We knew you would do well.
Granny I'm glad the dog came home. I know how much you love your animals.
MC, send some of that cool air my way please. It's 89 with a feel's like of 99 right now. The humidity is 67%!
I'm going to empty the refrigerator for our supper. I'll call it a buffet!

Thanks!!!!!! And it got to 70 today but it’s 64° now.
 
I really need to stop freaking beating myself up!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Doing that right now LOL I have good reason to this time but still… beating myself up over it DOES NOT HELP ANYTHING. Which, logically, I know, but yet I keep doing it. Habit I guess. I’m working on changing it but it’s hard. 😭

I hope you will use soft words, not hard ones, if you have to beat yourself up. Instead of thinking about the negative, concentrate on the positive, good things. You are stronger than you think! Hang in there! You can do anything you put your mind to.

Thanks!!!!!!! :hugs :love I’ve been calling myself an idiot, stupid, etc. :oops: but I’m working on changing that. You’re right, I need to focus on the positives! Yes, I messed up, BUT! I could have messed up a lot worse AKA done something else which I DID NOT so that’s a positive.
 
Oh my goodness. The fire I talked about earlier is far enough away we're not smelling smoke..but..!
This one was literally in back from us. We're closer to the mountain and there are farmers there. This poor family just lost a lot. Bronwyn and I were on our way back from Walmart and saw the smoke. I said, that's close to our house! Sure enough. We drive by it. Just a few blocks behind us. They lost that whole barn area. Hope they got it all out. It's so windy here in the mornings.
