Hopefully I will get a lot done within my home. I'm thrilled to have a new Hoover that actually cleans. I've just cleaned the chickens out and hope to get some plastic pinned over parts of their run to fend off the cold a little.

What are you doing today? :)

Nothing exciting here, we go grocery shopping and maybe lunch somewhere. Oh, and we have to take trash to our local trash site today.

OK, I'm not part of the "in crowd". I still have NO idea what a "fly license" is! I obviously isn't a private pilot license. Nor is it a regular "enhanced" license. I have one of those and I'm pretty sure it wouldn't get me onto a military base.

Bruce, what Mark is referring to is a drivers license compliant with the Real ID act. Some states such as Ohio and Vermont appear to make it optional for the driver to get a license that is Real ID compliant. Once fully implemented you won't be able to board a plane or enter a federal facility without a fully compliant ID. Here in Tennessee there was no option. When you renew your license you had to provide the documentation to be compliant with the act.

Hi everyone! Sorry I haven't been around in awhile. One of our cats mysteriously hurt her hip. She was limping about and we had to take her to the vet. We warned them she would likely have to be sedated when we made the appointment (she's our white, deaf kitty who was raised by a human and is very feisty). The vet decided to try and examine her anyway and quickly concluded that sedation was the best course. She went full feral on him and if he hadn't had such a good grip on her she would have shredded him. Thankfully she's much better now after a week of pain killers.

My cockatiels all want to breed and have been laying eggs everywhere in the aviary. I want to be able to separate specific pairs (so that I am not overrun with babies and also so I get the colours I want) but DH is still working on a smaller aviary for me to do that. Meanwhile they keep breaking each others eggs. So I have saved a few and they are in my incubator. One is about 8 days away from hatching (they take 18-21 days to hatch), 2 are about 5 days into incubation and one was just put in yesterday. So we'll see what happens but my days could get very busy!

And we finally have our little Wiltshire lambs:

They have been named Fei Fei, Lambkins, and Clara (all girls). They are already shedding (they are a 'hair' sheep) and DS has been collecting the tufts of wool to use as snow.

Trouble is almost as big as his mother now and he is friendlier than I expected. They free range around the house as our large cockerel is at the dorky, pain in the butt stage, so I didn't want to leave her over there with that to deal with! The bigger ducks have learnt to steer clear of the crazy chicken mama. 🤣

Hope everyone is staying healthy.
