You guys are great! I so look forward to getting on here!
I resalted my borders this morning and just did a little meditation on reaching out with love and not anger. I have no idea if it worked, but I feel a little better today.
Even though, sadly the chickie died during the night. It was a weird night. Dh forgot to close the chickens up for the night. Really rare and I was working so I did not notice when I came up to bed that the coop was open!
So DH and I "reconnected" and were up later than we normally would be. Just after... I heard a fox bark and my dog went nuts. So I went down and let the dog out to chase away the fox and saw that the coop was wide open!! I ran outside in a total panic expecting to see my flock torn to pieces! They were all sleeping soundly. I locked them up and then stood out in the dark wondering - if a fox saw a buffet like that of sleeping chickens just waiting - why would it bark??
So the baby chickie died and I told DH to place it out beyond my salt barrier but as a thank you to the fox for not taking what it could have. (He thinks I am only encouraging it to come back, but it already lives here and one tiny premature chick is not going to change its habits!!
)
ON you're a tree. A big wise - I keep getting Oak? Doesn't quite look like oak but I keep thinking oak. Maybe Rowan??
Coop you are just love. Plain and simple. And you can come fuss at me and make me eat more anytime!!
And Deb? You and I would probably love to hate each other!!
We're very alike! I am 5'2 110 lbs on a good day! I try to do the nurturing thing and sometimes I manage it, but it is not my strong suit!
That is why DH is my daughter's girl scout leader!! NOT me!
Anyway many of the Hindi people believe that (as do I) gender is a false dichotomy. We are all both and it is in reconciling our halves that we can become more whole. ON is an old soul.
