Granny's gone and done it again

I have some fake fur fabric that I got at Good Will that I use for sheets right now. The bedroom is cold but the 'sheets' are always luxuriously cozy

but think of the fake animals that died for your fake sheets

I can answer, I have the same. Yes, but the mattress is much ... "taller" than standard mattress, so you need special "deep pocket" sheets because regular fitted sheets won't fit. It's like a regular mattress is only 4" tall and deep pocket one can be 6 inches or more.

any reason you couldn't just buy one size larger bottom sheet ?? I have a queen bed, so queen fitted sheet and then king-size top sheet and blankets. That way there is extra coverage on top

Well I did a thing. But not completely yet, I haven't quite pulled the trigger yet. I went to Cackle Hatchery and put 15 chicks in my basket. I just didn't click the Buy button yet but I'll probably do that tomorrow.

The thing is ... the chicks I want won't hatch until June! So I think I'd better go for it. I want 7 each of Dominique pullets and black Ameraucana pullets, and one black Ameraucana cockerel. Fifteen is the minimum order without having to pay a small order fee.

I've wanted pb Ameraucanas forever, just was never willing to shell out the high $$$ for them. Finally decided... I'm not getting any younger, my chickening days can't last forever, I actually CAN afford them, and if not now, when? So ....

My sweet Rojo is 3 years old and I seldom find a fertilized egg. I have not been able to clear up his bumblefoot. His days are numbered, too. So it's time to think about his replacement, sad though that is.

I ordered my chicks the first part of Jan from Cackle for April delivery.. Last year I waited longer and ended up with June 10 hatch date.

I did place the order. I'll get my chicks July 7. I won't have to start them in the house.

Well I totally misunderstood your earlier post. It doesn't take much to confuse me.

that tends to happen as you get older. From what I have seen and been told. And with up to 12 birthday's a year you are waaaaaaaaaaaaaay old.

May have to turn the AC on. It's to hot inside to sleep. 64° outside but 75° and can't seem to get the temp down.

Much rather eat at home. Our food our menus our way.

and a heck of a lot cheaper and healthier.
