Waiting Until April 15th - Why?


THIS is the Girls’ summertime pond.  Or - did you know that hens like to play pretend and be ducks every now and then?  I think mine do it just to jack with me.

And their summertime pond only had 1 gallon of water tossed into it when I put it out there for them earlier this week.

I guess Mother Nature decided I didn’t have enough water in it on Friday night?  ( There go those hormones - again. )

My gosh.  The weather that’s been hitting us here.  Unreal.

Comes with mixed feelings.  We need the rain.  But Dwayne’s winning his bet.  He took time off to deal with a chunk on the list.

There is a lot of planting that needs to be done right now.  We're a bit late - as it is.  We can’t afford to have all this bad weather getting in the way. 

Nobody can - really.  But I guess we’ll just go with the flow and carry faith while staying in prayer.

Okay - so I’ll stay - forever - looking up at ceilings or the sky - while running from one thing to the next that needs to be tended to on that list.

And yes - it does usually consist of some yelling every now and then.

Hey - by the time it ( emotion ) reaches your heart - it’s just too late.

He’s already heard you.  Ha! ( " Neener - Neener ! " )

I prefer to see the glass half-full.  At least I'm not living in some crowded city where the neighbors' windows are the view from my own.

Otherwise - there'd be humans on this planet having conversations about watching me stare at the ceiling and yelling - " REALLY ?! "

Oh, it gets worse!

Sometimes - there's only time and energy for a dirty look.

It does suck that he took time off and then can't do the work he wanted to do. That does figure that it would happen that way though.

I thought I was the only one that says "Neener Neener!" LOL! I am late planting seeds too. The weather is not cooperating. I have seedlings for my garden in the house and won't set them out yet.
I have Orps too and do they really like the pool?? Do you add toys in it? Ya, I spoil my chickens I guess. I talk to the ceiling too, reminded myself of ah beagle we had once who barked facing the back of his dog house...loved the echo ;-) Not that I went in the dog house mind you Ha HAAA! Love your blog.
