Good morning! I'm sitting here just listening to a symphony of crowing. I bet my neighbors love me! I've got two pretty normal crowers and iv'e got Cookie who sounds like somebody squishes him mid crow. I don't know if he's trying to stand out or what exactly is going on there.:caf
:gig

I had one rooster who's crow sounded normal initially, but had the sound of a winding down siren after he finished.
 
Here's what's up lately:

1. PIC has been sick. Like, really really sick. Got him into the Dr; he is on Keflex and a very boozy smelling expectorant, cause whatever he has has settled into his chest and decided it wants to live there for awhile.

2. Super Tater DH is already going through work withdrawals, and he hasn't even started his retirement process yet. He's pretty much completely *checked out* in the work department. Plus, I think he's a little depressed about it. His unit will be out training during the time he will be turning in all his paperwork and clearing post, so basically no parties, no fanfare... just *wipe ya feet on the way out and don't let the door hit ya where the good lawd split ya*........

3. Mom is coming for her yearly visit. SHE wants to stay for at least 2 months.... Oh dear.

4. Did I mention THE PUPPIES?!?!? We got puppies.

Yeah, there's that. I DID tell the boys they could get a couple of puppies when STDH retired.... so, here they are. We took home 3 to see which 2 would *fit* the best.

We have decided on the single boy, the white one, who we named (David) Bowie Bleu. and the black one (the runt from a separate litter), and named her Twilight Dreaming. The Brown one, we were calling Poppy Cox... and it's a shame we can't keep her... but she is too much of an Alpha personality, and doesn't do well with submitting to the older dogs.... PLUS I didn't want puppies at all PLUS blah blah blah. To be honest, if it was JUST the puppies, we'd keep all 3, and Poppy would more than likely be the lead dog.... but Wolf is already or lead dog, so don't need an Assistant (to the) Lead Dog. (Anyone get that reference?!? :lau )

5. Our closest neighbors are moving, and they are taking PICs BFF.... so, dealing with those emotions. They sold their property pretty quickly, so we're very curious as to who will be moving in...

So, there's all that... OH and my skin procedures as well.. which has been cutting (no pun intended) into my work out and swimming time this summer..... I'm verklempt!!!

Good to see you post, Smuv. I think you need a hug.:hugs Hope your son recovers quickly. What type of puppies are they?
I am pretty much done my turkey coop. Getting ready to build a second chicken coop.
Hubby's Dad is verging on kidney failure and he needed a third blood transfusion recently. I doubt he will be around much longer. Hubby always goes up there this time of year. So i am going to be unsupervised for a couple of weeks....:lau
