Good Morning Reader’s!

Happy Saturday! The sun is out here in the ATL this morning. It was nice to sleep in for a change. Today is day 3 of taking my $$$ pills. Yesterday morning I was a bit nauseous and didn’t think I was going to be able to make it to the gym for my workout. I took one of my pills left over from my chemotherapy treatments and it was able to settle my stomach. Even though I wasn’t in the mood to go workout with SK, I did and am happy I did. It was nice to see SK and to show the f-ing tumor that I was in charge!

What is he doing???

I just looked out my office window to see Timber digging a hole in the bushes. I think he got a whiff of a rodent and has a mission to make him his. I should probably go stop him before he digs a hole to China!!

On his way to China?

For the past two nights Zazzles and Terrance Peterson have been sleeping in the big coop. I have had to put them in the coop and help them up onto the roosting bars which is pretty funny sight. Yesterday morning Timber and I went out to see how they made it through the evening. Turbo and Poppy were out and about but Zazzles and Terry Pete were still in the coop on the roosting bars! They wouldn’t come down! I had to use the pole of my rake to help them get down. Then they walked out the big door and hoped onto the top of the green run!

Last night I went up there around 8:30pm and they were on top of the green run like they were waiting for me to put them to bed! And I did. This morning Timber and I headed back out around 8:15am and there they were still in the coop. I told them that they were going to have to figure it out for themselves. I waited till about 9:30am before I went back out to check on them. They were out!! So proud of my little girls.

Tonight will be the big test. Will they walk the plank up into the coop and fly up to the roosting bar? If I was betting on it, I’d say no. I think they will be sitting on top of the green run waiting for me to put them to bed and read them a goodnight story! What they don’t know is that tomorrow I will be moving the green run out of The Majestic. They are going to have to figure it out fast.

Happy Weekend Reader’s!!

The $75.89 pill…

Reader’s!

This is what a $75.89 pill looks like. I thought it would be bigger. And Orange. And Glow in the dark. Nope. Looks like an average pill. Let’s hope it doesn’t work like an average pill but like a SUPER pill.

I got my pills around 11am today and took my four. I am to take them all at once (much easier) and on an empty stomach. So far I feel ok. My head is a bit fuzzy but I forgot to take my allergy pills and even though we have had a lot of rain over the past few days, the pollen is still out there.

Birthday

The Boy’s Birthday is coming up this month. Truth be told, The Boy has too much stuff as it is. I always get him clothes, he needs those but I really don’t want to by him stuff that he will forget about in a months time. So this morning I came up with an idea. The Boy loves animals, especially cute ones (who doesn’t?!). Recently I came across Edgar’s Mission Farm Sanctuary in Australia. They take in hurt and abandoned farm animals and provide them a home and healthcare. In some cases they adopt them out. On the site they have a page where you can “sponsor” an animal on the farm. I took a look and have found the perfect one for The Boy for his birthday. Reader’s! Meet Boots!

Boots!

Boots!

Isn’t he the cutest thing ever?! Make sure you take a look at his video on the website. He jumps around like a jumping bean! I also love his sweater. I wish we could bring him home. Aidan will get a Welcome packet and then will be sent updates on Boots via e-mail for the year. I hope they send some pictures of him in his sweater with his friends! Such a cutie!

If you go checkout the website take a look at Little Miss Sunshine. She is a super smart Chicken. Check out her video.

I am happy that the weekend is almost here. I am planning on adding Zazzles and Terry Pete to the big coop and run permanently. My fingers are crossed. Zazzles and Terry Pete have gotten the hang of roosting and if they need to, they can hop up and get away from Turbo and Poppy. Hopefully they will get use to each other soon.
