FYI last time I checked Del's was several $$ cheaper than The Farm Store. And 2" is about 1/2 the price of 1".

wish I had been reading instead of writing, Julia; I could have met you at the cemetery, it's just down the road from our place; and I have lilacs that didn't get mashed to pieces (partially sheltered by hedge evergreens)

also a couple of my Lord cousins are buried in that cemetery (Serepta Jane ! love that name) --- distant cousins, but .... one of their descendants lives down Johnson Creek Rd, met her while messing with genealogy; another couple of Maine Lord cousins in the area (though my gran's family moved Maine > Montana > Oregon )

I think Yelm Farm & Pet is where DH got the chicken wire for the chicken tractor -- we disassembled the old donated one and between the chicken wire that came off that, and the leftovers from the new tractor, I think I have a complete roof covering for the chicken run

I haven't hung the chainlink fencing yet, nor wired in the hardware-cloth doubler; I think I'm going to need more hardware cloth, see if I can score some from garage sales or off Craigslist

I also flexed my muscles and dragged the 7 foot square plywood piece out from under the brambles -- will let it dry out and see if it can be a "porch roof" for the crate-coop and small coop --- I didn't get the shingle pile out yet -- that will have to wait until the underbrush dries out a bit; I'd drown in there right now

I wish I was closer, too, so I could help. Today would have been bad cause the cold has whooped my behind! Never had pneumonia so I don't know what it feels like but man is my chest heavy. And I think I pulled muscles in my back coughing!

FYI the one time I had pneumonia it HURT like somebody had punched my in the kidneys. Didn't feel much in the chest but low back was terrible.

oh definitely mess with genealogy; I have most of my lines back to the immigrant ancestor, eleven to thirteen generations in some case

I can trace back to my immigrant ancestor, too. Of course, it's easy when that's only one, two, or three generations.

I had thought about scooting up to help T Hi, but felt really rotten when I got up; cramping muscles, chills, usual fatigue --- not ILL, just lousy hormone balance or something; doctors have been unable to diagnose anything other than by eliminating what it ISN'T

DH had another job going on so he couldn't go, and he needed the Yaris, while I don't like to drive the Trooper more than five miles away, the transmission is making funny noises

moving is the pits, but staying in a bad situation is worse
