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!!

Good Thursday Reader’s!

I hope you all have been having a good week. Tomorrow is Friday and I can’t wait! I am planning on working in the garden this weekend. I have $20 gift card to Lowes and plan on buying some veggies for the garden.

It’s that time again…

Tomorrow, My Man and I head back to see Dr. Read for my two month scans. I will be getting a CT scan, blood drawn, port flushed and will see Dr. Read. Other then the pain is my shoulder, ribs (I am going to ask about that) and allergies, I feel fine! If you pray, please say a few words for my family and I. If you don’t pray, please send good vibes my way. Thanks!!

It took nine years…

New TV

Cozy for TV watching.

Timber loves it already!

…but we finally got a TV out on the screened in porch. Woot! Woot! I am so happy. Direct TV came out and fixed it all up for us. We were also able to get a new DVR and can now record 4 shows at once! Plus you can access all your recorded shows from any TV in the house.

Zazzles and Terry Pete Update

The two little girls are doing great. They are still being separated from Turbo and Poppy. I think they are all getting use to each other. They have been introduced to arugula, cantaloupe and honey-do. They really like the melon. At this point I am mainly worried about how Poppy will treat the little girls. Turbo just wants the food in their dish but Poppy seems to want to get up close and personal. Time will tell!

Hmmm….Lunch.

Reader’s, what are your plans for the weekend? For those of you up north, has the snow all melted? Have fun and Stay Safe!

Reader’s!! I would like to introduce Hotel Yorba’s newest members…

A new chicken! Oh wait, it’s just The Boy.

My Mom, Dad, The Boy and I all drove up to northern Georgia to pick up Zazzles and Terry Pete. They are so cute! Their cones are so tiny and not even that red yet. The owners of the farm where super nice. Melissa works the farm full-time and her husband helps on the weekends. If we ever get more hens, I am going back to them.

Who are you?

Baby chicken butt!

Turbo and Poppy are very interested in the new girls. I am not to sure that they are happy with their new roommates. There has been a lot of chatter in the run this afternoon. Poppy REALLY wants to get into their little run and Turbo wants to eat their food. Which is weird, since she has the same food in her feeder!

Very crowded in The Majestic.

I think I will keep Zazzles and Terry Pete in their little coop/run for a few days. I need to make sure that Poppy and Turbo get use to them and accept them. No hen pecking at The Majestic allowed!
