Official Squatch Watchers

Sorry - I've spent my life in or around Chicago, so the bad weather is pretty normal for me.

I grew up just outside of Chicago, between Hammond and Gary. Not even remotely interested in that weather, especially with lake effect.

I am getting much closer to retirement age! I turn 60 soon

Is going to work better now that you have a tangible end in sight? I've got 18-20 years. Just found out that the 'new guy' working circ out front applied for the it mgr job... He has a degree, I'll give him that, but I can't work for someone else that I'm going to have to prop up. I'm going to apply, but I'm going to wait until the position is actually posted. I even have my resume all ready.

Thanks! I want to build another one right next to it.

What percentage of your yard is chicken coop/run? I'm guessing about 73%.

Ron if you were comfortable with 40 and 50 - 60 will be a breeze. Didn't even notice 70- still do what I was able to do before. Probably sleep more just from boredom,or to use less electricity to save some on the bill.

Our weather guy was not correct for my specific area. We are actually 16°.

Birds are tended and doing well.
Tilly ate kibble....even if I had to present it in my hand. She ate a real serving size.


Jack is still hanging in there.
River is less of a turd so far.
Delilah is Delilah. Happy to be outside with her favorite ball.
Sable snubbed food this morning but whatever. She will eat later.

I really need to clean the coops, get groceries, and put gas in my car. Not things I can do with all the dog issues here.
Maybe my son will be home on time today......

Good morning! I still have half an hour lol!

Same here, got 7 yesterday at most I was getting 5.
I know Renee started back, and Marlene might be close "she was putting out" lol.
She'll be four this year, wonder how many more monster eggs she has left?

My birds are an odd lot. We are approaching the shortest day of the year and production is increasing.

I got 7 eggs today with 5 being from the big coop. Only added 4 birds there and just 3 of those laid today.
In the Bitty house I got a faverolle egg and one from the Barnevelder. I have been getting the occasional Bitty egg even.

Gotta keep me guessing I suppose.

Whatever yesterday's fiight was all has been calm today out there.

That is awful!

16° with feels like 3°.

The nice thing is that I have a guaranteed pension so I do not have to worry too much about job stability

Overcast days are depressing.
We may be warmer than many but those clouds can move along.

They are thin but still enough to block the sun.

The request for dinner is hamburger helper.

I think I will have a salad.....Maybe soup.
My glucose has been wacko for a month now, all over the place with no food link. Must be stress.

At least today the dogs are behaving.

Yes stress will mess you all up, you've got to relax even if it kills you......also drink some beet juice,nasty as a mofo but it will chill your levels.
