It's been a long day. Did you do anything interesting?

Why you into chickens? I can see goats but chickens?

Dried mealworms. It's like chicken crack.

Our hens know the sound of the shed door opening where the mealworms are. They hunt me down LOL.

I never liked wine until I moved to a place where I had to drive an hour to buy jack. Why is the NFL still having a draft as scheduled? Jeopardy is way more relevant.

This is so true.

Lol. I think that's the best part. They're pretty close to following me up the back porch for food. They know where the worms and compost bucket come from.

- made 3 kinds of salad with eggs, trying to use up excess eggs
- hung new porch tv - worked on programming it.
- drove golf cart to check on dewberry patch - and then to get mail - also stopped and chatted with neighbor - and also chatted with more neighbors in road - trying to keep 6 ft. but they seem to get closer and closer - so bam road off.
- shopped amazon and a couple other stores and placed orders
- gave dog a summer haircut.
- checked on seeds to see if sprouted

Haha. We normally leave the back door open when it is warm so the dogs and cats can go in and out.

I have had to shoo chickens out of the kitchen.

I slept all damn day.

Was awake all darn night in agonizing pain from attempting to do the types of thing you say your doing (started over three days ago, still not done).

Attempting to put an orchard and garden in, but grooming the land to receive it requires some hard physical labor that I simply can't achieve alone, with my disability.

Pisses me off to no end. Pain level has been off the chart, making me quite salty.

I took the whole day off yesterday, while other family burned (in the rain) slash I piled, from thinning brush and trees.

Nearly ready to plant, but getting there.......has been a bitch!

Last bit of snow, finally melted two days ago.

Poor dog is on the chain until I finish moving his dog run, which is only half done. It was in the way. Sis dumped the dog on us when she moved out of state. His name is Eximo, but I call him Mexico, because we didn't ask for another mouth to feed. He is a good dog though.

Im gonna take a hot shower, a few narco pills and attempt to go back to sleep for another 10 hours, maybe.

I Hope Friday is better.

A hot shower always helps to ease the aches.

Jeez, don't get me started on the 97!
136,000 on it currently
This thing was a lemon from day one (10/1996)!
Transmission rebuilt twice under warrantee, engine replaced at 60,000 under 7-76000 warrantee. Rebuilt that engine 5 years ago, smashed it into a ford 150 taking a left turn. Brought it home and replaced the fender, headlights, various front end parts and the steering box. Now it's making a hell of a racket under the hood, hopefully just the water pump though.
Now it's just the weekend driver

That was VERY interesting, Musashi! The artwork was fascinating, particularly in the way that it accurately portrayed their horses as being not all that much bigger than ponies. Thanks a lot!

Here all day GLP.

..uhh..is that a port box wine?

Yeah. The weather never use to effect me. It also does now. That is part of it too. It has been rainy and damp.

I finally know what it feels like to be beat with a barometer. This aging thing on top of my spinal fusion has me wrecked....

I like physical labor, for the most part. Idk why though. But I'm sure I won't be able to move hardly tomorrow. I'm used to sitting in the house or on the porch. My husband is still working, so I don't ask him to do much through the week. But we need to get this garden tilled. I'm as sure of it as I was sure we were running out of time to buy a house and move out of the tin can. I hope tomorrow is better too. Or this weekend. Maybe I can get it all prepped to plant.

Nah, it's barefoot sweet red, and then margaritas in a bottle when that was gone.

Yeah they're worth quite a lot if they're nice which mine is actually not perfect just nice.
Bought it in 91 for 1100 and it was trashed
Now I could prolly sell it for 30k

You don't. You let them live out their natural lives until they die from old age or varmints (the circle of life and stuff). It won't cost that much more for feed, and these Grandma Hens are fun to watch. Sometimes they'll end up being the "Alpha" girl and you can try slipping some eggs under them in early Spring and see if they'll set.

Congratulations!!! What a blessing in the middle of a dark time! Will his middle name be "Corona"?!

Went for a hike in the desert, spoke to 2 coyotes....telepathically, amazing experience.

That's basically what I'm doing. If food runs out and we're really hungry, but until then, I don't mind. The baby duck eats as much as like 5 chickens. No more of them.

I use to pick upteen gallons of huckleberry every summer as a kid/teen for school clothes funding. I am no stranger to hard work. Had to pay for my Levi's and Nike.

I just can't do it anymore.

My son is working too. Otherwise he would be helping here more also.

His first paying job, he worked for a week and a half before they shut everything down. He was off for 6 days, but has been working steadily since, which is fortunate, as is your husband being able to work.

Well....then!

Happy Birthday to him!

I'm a sucker for these kind of threads.

Woke up, coffee, walked the dog in the rain.

Email, GLP, web browsing, a bit of work.

Home schooled a kid who'd rather fuck around on YT and game on the tablet, but who after some help and encouragement ended up writing a most excellent essay.

Marveled, yet again, how Chicago teachers managed to pull off a successful strike this year and got a massive raise and who are now doing mostly squat.

Walked the dog, smiled at few people in the park but couldn't tell if they were giving me dirty looks because I wasn't wearing a mask.

Wife, dog, kid and I did a grocery pick up that had half our order in stock then decided not to go in the store because there was a 100 person long line. Wondered why there was a line to get in if everyone was already wearing masks.

Drove 30 minutes to another store with no line and better stock. Pulled my mask down because I could barely breath. Listened to the bagger lady tell me how healthy it is to microwave asparagus then warned me that my mask was not covering my nose.

Left and said hello to the cop who was now standing guard at the entrance.

Felt like I needed an hour in disinfection chamber.

A bit of work. GLP.

Made a huge ass ham and veggie fried rice dinner because the local Chinese take out went out of business.

Poured a gin and tonic with lime because Beefeater was on a nice sale.

Played some foosball with the kid.

Went on family dog walk, wondered why people feel the need to walk around at night wearing mask. Dog got wind of an in-heat lady dog then got super pissed when we wanted to go home.

Another gin. Some work.

Shared too much on GLP, cookie, about to watch some TV on the new 75".

I shot some 2 liter and water bottles with Charlie's Kaboom caps on them... OMG They will definitely get someones attention. BEST $13 I've spent during this COVID.

They are on ebay and he has some uTube vids.

Ate walnuts.
watched tv
dug a hole
took a shit
took another shit
adjusted my package

Still working doing residential maintenance.

Staff picks up $2 Margaritas in drive thru to go everyday since our office is locked to public.

Saw 4 motorcycle cops pulling over people from the few people that are even on the road on way to work.

Grocery store today fully stocked.. Central Tx.

Big name Gym here is now closed permanently... Usually packed there.

Several restaurants won't place orders over the phone unless you have a credit card number first.. No cash

Hundreds of hidden lakes/rivers to go to since mainstream ones are closed.


New Gigantic indoor water park still scheduled to open up.. .. We'll see...

I WENT THE WRONG WAY IN WALMART

Confused.

You drink Margaritas at work?

Oh, shit!

Will you be released on good behavior? :D

I watched this Punjabi pop video for about the 20th time today.

Not aure why but it tickles my funnybone.
