The Old Folks Home

Hello, Old Folks!
I don't post much, but check in and try to keep up daily.
@getaclue - those cookies! :drool I think I've gained weight just looking at them! (I love hazelnut.)

@penny1960 - cute little ones! We're going to be gone a lot this summer, so no new chicks for me unless someone goes broody. My girls are just 11 months old, so whether taht happens or not will remain to be seen.

@ronott1 - Ron, it would be upsetting to find a chicken massacre like that. Are you sure they left the coop open, and it didn't accidentally happen somehow? I think I'd play dumb when they get home. "I don't know what happened. We came, found the coop and run wide open, and dead chickens." See what they have to say. I do agree that I would not help them get more chickens. I'm sorry you had to put one of your former birds down.

@perchie.girl - I'm with you. I don't bake unless we're getting company that I can feed it to. Otherwise, I end up eating it all. DH doesn't like sweets or baked goods all that much. (I don't know what went wrong there.

@microchick - Congrats on the weight loss!

@CapricornFarm - Yay, chickies

@superchemicalgirl - Beautiful job on the quilt!

@Cynthia12 - I'm so glad you have chickens again!
The gate for the run was blocked open by a big rock. The latch for the gate was locked open with a carabiner. It was one of the dumbest things I have seen anyone do yet. This is a very rural town too
 
The rock was so big that I could not move it with my foot. The survivor was trying to get out after we saved her. I had to bend down and pick it up while keeping her in. It would have been hard catching her out in that lot. It is very large.
 
Toilet is fixed and got my first row by row done for the latestarter memorial quilt.

Trails are too mushy muddy alternating with super icy to take Ripley very far on them. She is not pleased.

One of my beehives survived the winter.
Nice start, those quilts are a lot of work. I am working on the back of the wedding quilt now.
 
Things quiet here we like evening easy have to let the old girl go on Tuesday made the friggin appointment she cannot get up the steps or control her bowels isn't eating
I do not want to but keeping her going is for us not her
I am sorry Penny!

Even though it is the best choice, it is hard
 
Thank you I know we discussed this the last month maybe 3 months
There have been several recently on different threads. It is sad every time someone loses a pet that is a part of the family
