busy busy

oh man this published before i wrote it!

ok
colleen comes tomorrow
we aren't ready
she'll have to live in our real house instead of our 'for company' house

no raccoon that i saw yesterday
we are dumping the ducks ponds out before bed every night
i laugh when i hear people say

'trap them and take them MILES away and release them'

yup make them someone ELSES problem


ok anyway, i got the winter clothes/out of season stuff all done except for coats
i need new plastic storage boxes for them
i want air tight ones as i am going to put them in the attic i think
with the mice
and i hope some mice bait

i got almost everything i need to start color drawings of the duckies
except the paper
sorta
i would like a vellum finish but am going to do ink and light water colors i think
finished up with pastel pencils
i think
i am going to sit down and play
as soon as i get the paper

after the duckies,............ should i do chickens?
cats?
badger the lamb?

bernie tells me btw, that he intends on getting the duck house finished
hahahahahaha
i shouldn't laugh huh?
hahahahahhahaha
after all may 19 they turned a year old
and still no duck house
by the time the duck house happens
i think it will be only enough for three ducks and the rest will be living in the daylight basement with the chickens


in soon to be baby duckling news
the new duck ( WE NEED A NAME GUYS.......nothing so far has fit her)
appears to be setting 15 eggs
i may hold back one or two to raise as tame birds
to add to the outcross of the flock
if the girls like them

bernie is putting the ducks out for me this morning as you see
i over slept
since i didn't sleep last night
i went to sleep at 6am
and just got up a bit ago
no that isn't like me
but apparently, it's menopause me
that and excessive facial hair

oye

    I think this time of year is very busy for most of us. My gardens and yard work are keeping me so busy I'm crashing early and sleeping like the dead. Not complaining either. It's nice to hit the sack and pass out like that for a change.

    And I'm feeling great! :)

    I hope you both have a fun and wonderful time with Colleen.
