I am glad you didn't fall off the planet! You had me wondering what was up.
Get to feeling better soon. Rest, fluids and other mom sounding stuff.

X's 2 on the Mom sounding stuff. Take care of yourself!

Morning. It’s too early! M-F I have to drag myself out of bed, but for some reason, on the weekend I can’t seem to sleep in

Chickens never sleep in, either! Once you get them, your sleeping in days are numbered.

Bob, I want to come and sit on your deck for a day or 10 just watching those tiny beautues!
I promise to pet Todd and not try to run off with his gorgeous mug.

We get mostly house finch, a few black cap chickadee, blue jays, stellar jays and doves here. One year (in winter cause there was snow) we woke to a small flock of true blue birds taking shelter in the yard.

Yesterday at 8pm we had someone actually brave enough to ring the bell and not run away when the dogs hit the window. He was selling the services of a bug control company. I have a no soliciting sign.
On and on he went about how he could get rid of the bugs/wasps/spiders in my yard. Um....I am chemical free here. My porch light is left on at night, which draws tiny flying things, which draws small spiders, which make webs near the light. There is a big barn spider (Fred) tucked in by the garage door. Yup no poison since he has a name. It took a good 30 minutes to get him to go away. I told Fred good night before I went inside.

Maybe I need a light up no soliciting sign.....

In a web, like in Charlotte's Web?

I love sitting out on my screened in patio, with a cup of coffee, in the early morning, watching, and listening to the world waking up around me. The beautiful bird songs, the horses, the cows, the donkeys, and the lion.

Good Saturday morning everyone! We have another paying guest in our little bunkhouse, an escapee from the Phoenix heat. What a nice way to make an extra $200. on the weekend. 5:00 am a little Barred Holland rooster was announcing he has really hit puberty with a louder, 2-note, cracking crow. I had to go out and see if it was one or 2 that were making that pitiful noise!Bob, can you breed them to be larger before they start crowing???

Maaybe I want to watch all those, except the lion . . .

I don't get to see the lion, just hear it roar. It makes things interesting.

The barn spider! Yes a rather strong web measuring about a foot across. I let him be as he isn't hurting a thing. I do watch where I walk though. I don't particularly like a face full of web and potentially pissed off spider.

Speaking of watching the morning wildlife, these 2 guys just strolled though our yard.
