Hello my dear blog readers. I and still here. My Hubby is still here. We are still healthy. I owe you many blogs but I am not sure that it will get accomplished due to the mass quantity of work work that must be accomplished each day and there just isn’t enough hours to complete all the tasks.
The chickens came on Friday. We love them! They have names. Another blog…
In the process we had to build a new shed. The “we” is a collective term meaning the Hubby built the shed and I helped by staying out of the way and offering no comments. Even the shed being a bit crooked didn’t receive comment from me. I was trying to keep things as peaceful during this time of chaos as possible.
At one point in the construction it looked like we could soon have a horse or a cow lodging in our back garden but when he finished we realized it was just perfect for all the things we need to store.
Soon I found that it could have another useful purpose.
Yup… it doesn’t get any better than this! Environmental friendly and some private time away from the home office chaos of Hubby pushing airplanes around. Ahhhh… peaceful… until… he found me!
So there you have it! It has gotten that bad here where I have to revert to old school farm outhouse jokes to make us laugh.
Take care everyone. Stay healthy and hug the closest loved one and say “hello” to one stranger today. Kindness goes a long way in these situations.

The chickens aren’t going to care if things aren’t perfectly straight in their yard. Neither should you!

Love the look of the hens, don’t be tempted to let them out as they would soon trash the garden.

I hear you. I heard that you Gus are having issues with people stealing chickens in the UK!!! 😬😢☹️ What hell is the world coming to? If that were to happen in the US someone would be shot on spot for such stupid behavior!

My expectations are the same as your husband’s when there is a major project, a new garden shed, etc. to be built. Then I would like her to help me by staying out of the way. She is really happy to help me in this way. Haha!

He needs focus and no English chatter when working. So that is not a problem when I know the rules. 😊😊😊

I am soooo much more productive if Linda just assigns me the task and then keeps her distance. Part of that is my OCD always comes into play where she is quite happy with just tilting her head a bit ha! Shed err, private place, err, me time hut, err stress reliever sanctuary, ah, wait … just a “reliever” place looks lit it will do the job – don’t let B see you hoarding those paper products or you’ll end up on the bad side of his blog. Can’t wait to see how the chicken thing goes – out her in the country we see them wandering on various lots quite content to peck away at the ground seemingly oblivious to the packs of coyotes salivating at the tree lines. Looks like yours have a safe place to wander.

Yup, only cats here to look at the chicken with those eyes. But, I darn the cat that would try! I could end up in jail if I did anything here to cat that I would do in the states.😬🤨 I am sure “B” didn’t notice my TP horde. Or at least he didn’t mention it in his comments. I really feel for his situation and the UK has it bad! There are people there stealing chickens. Yup! Locks went in my cages here too. You never know in these situations. Did you see where that wacko drove a train within 200 yards of the US Navy Hospital Ship Mercy in the West Coast? Crazy stuff! And we are worried about the Mexican and Canadian boarders? Really? This is really the OMG – WTF sort of times. Take care and be safe there in the country. Sounds nice and peaceful.

I love the pictures of your chickens! They’re gorgeous. Our neighbors down the street have chickens and we can see them through their fence from the end of our own driveway. They are so sweet. And having a little shed for alone time isn’t a bad thing at all!

The shed has turned out wonderful! I have never in all the nearly 30 places I have lived in my life had such a wonderful space for my tools. I will do a follow up.
Thanks for the compliment on the ladies. I will let them know in the morning when I go out to see them. They have brought such joy into our lives already. Stay safe friend!
