Official Squatch Watchers

Same here. My feet were soaked all morning and I resorted to wearing my daughter's rain boots in the mud. I threw a pallet in front of the coop door because it was muddy and standing water and when I let the chickens out these jumped around it. Some of them figured out that it was a step but other ones couldn't handle it. On the plus side all this rain will be great for our Gardens, Oh.. Wait....
Are you ready for the snow tomorrow? I just looked at the forecast and pretty much from 8 till evening it says snow showers for me.

And I noticed this evening as I was working in the coop that there's water coming in from the door. So now tomorrow I need to figure out how to keep the water from leaking in. I got Odin a heated water dish from the pet store. It's supposed to be for dogs but I'm hoping it will work well enough for him.

1-3 inches is predicted for Chardon. I'll take that over feet! Hoping for a mild winter. Depending on what weather channel you watch, on what day, the forecast changes. Mild to brutal... who knows.

Sometimes i think they flip a coin to decide!
 
Good night

My chicken Emma stalked and killed a large alligator lizard and then ran around the entire property (well, the cleared part of our land) with the poor thing hanging from her mouth. And then a tug of war happened and suddenly the head hen Rosemary had the lizard, and the next thing I know someone else took off running with the back half, and boy was that nuts.

Anyway, they're roosting and I'm eating homemade tacos courtesy of the husband, and I'm done for the day. Geesh.
 
Actually , i am feeling sleepy for a change. Usually i don't get sleepy until about 1 am!
I let myself get addicted to caffeine again. I used to drink a lot of coke or pepsi but i weaned myself off of that. Now i started drinking hot tea like crazy because it warms me up when i get cold. And you know, caffeine gets you going. Sigh.

I find that weaning myself off tea caffeine is SOOOO much easier than weaning myself off soda and energy drinks ever was. I drink unsweetened tea though. I think adding the sugar to it also makes it more addictive.

Yes, I said I was going to go to bed about 2 hours ago, but once the munchkin went to sleep, I wasn't tired. So I put some apples I've been cooking this afternoon through the food mill to get rid of the skins and turn it into more apple sauce and apple butter (so much easier than peeling all the apples, and less waste too). Now I've had a bowl and I'm heading to bed shortly.
