    I won't be working either. I don't get AI @ all. I much prefer to structure my own sentences ~ but after 3 changes of major I've reverted to English so that probably isn't a surprise... 🤣 AI isn't allowed for our essays, thankfully. I was given quite the compliment, having had a prolonged &...

    I have struggled being back in acadamia but I still know how to write a coherent sentance & learn from assignment feedback. My biggest problem is navigating technology - a problem your students probably don't have. 🤣

    It's all that texting not using proper English. 🙄

    I'm sorry to hear you have Mareks. Than is such a shame when you are so careful of your girls.

    I even considered asking a chicken farm to do my chicks with theirs but it became super problematic as, if I remember correctly, they must do them on day one & all my chicks were older than that.

    The cost of vaccination is exorbitant. I looked into it 5 years ago when I added chicks rather that POLs. Vaccination is designed for the farmers & is beyond the cost effectiveness for small breeders & backyard keepers. One reason I would like to close my flock & let my girls sit but I need to...

    I'm so sorry MJ. She was a lovely little hen. These things do happen though. I remember Pebbles, a little blue Australorp bantam, went into the nest to lay her egg, came out, went under the coop & died. Weird & so, so sad. Ivy will be missed.:hugs:hugs

    Everyone I know in the area is still without power but all are safe.

    Not super sure. My computer is down but both my boys have been without power for several days.

    Wow! Not sure. I just asked them all to text me an OK so I knew everyone was alive & because without power the phones will be useless pretty fast. Other than that it's wait & see but I think they've all come out pretty well.

    Nothing about this cyclone has been normal. It's been lingering off the coast for over a week unable to decide where its heading. It's been a 2, a 3, temporarily a 4 back to a 3 & now a 2 again with a chance it will strengthen again before it crosses. As a slow moving system they're looking @ a...

    There are herbs that are supposed to help. Where is your witch when you need her? I don't suppose you can contact her...? Willow bark is used for headaches but I suspect any herb would barely take the edge of the pain compared to the opioids commonly used.

    As do I.:hugs I have @ least 5 up the back & several further down the road. None of them are overly loud or make a continuous racket. Leonard is a joy. He does announce the new day but I'm so used to him now I rarely hear him unless I make a conscious effort.

    Dogs are the bane of my life - but then I'm a crazy cat lady.😃

    I know I'm late to this but now I'm definitely rural I can say round here there are always roosters available. Rehoming is not an issue. Where they end up is problematic. My back neighbour seems to have a bachelor pad with 5/6 birds & he doesn't appear to have soup plans but that is not always...

    Can't rehome him? I'm terribly behind on your news. I do not understand people's objections to roosters when we live with trucks, Motorbikes, trains, planes, jack hammers, lawnmowers etc - all of which I find far more offensive than a rooster. Hope he has a lovely few days.

    I finally get to some catching up to find you have been unwell. Glad to hear you are doing better now. I have been watching Alfred creep down the coast. Early predictions said he'd cross @ Rocky [too close for comfort] & now it's my boys in the direct line of fire. My mum will also be affected...
