Yesterday we got chicks back in. The first time we got chickens in less than 2 weeks! We were ready and willing, all the updates are going to cost us for 4 years, I want to make sure we keep chickens in. For the first time I was actually not dreading the birds coming back in. They came about 4:30 pm. The first time ever we have left them right away. We took TJ out for his 21st birthday. Came home and just peaked in before going to bed. Unfortunately this morning we woke up to a flood and lost about 100 chicks. We weren't able to go to church as planned. Everyone was out there blocked off the area and tried to clean it up as much as we could. I was proud of Jay he didn't freak out like usual. He was thankful and so was I that we lost them on day 2 not on day 20. We had help and we were able to enjoy the afternoon after all. Opened up the patio and sat outside with DU. I really wish we could afford to get him wheels.. He was so tired of walking he just kept falling down.
Spent yesterday cleaning out the laundry room cabinets. It feels good to purge and clean up. The laundry room is looking good. Jay is working a little at a time repainting and cauking and soon will be putting up the trim that has never gone up since we moved here. Two new doors and we should be finished in that room off to the kitchen to finish the trim there too. Goal is to finish up what we have started to some day sell and make life simple again.

Hi Tammie,
ReplyDeleteWhen you eventually reach the point of starting the next chapter of your lives and when life is simple again, you should write a book! Good luck with the ramaining chicks...
You think anyone would buy it? LOL
