I get bitten by Mozzie around 4/5pm in the afternoon in the garden. Many years ago my whole flock had dry Fowlpox. I fear it will happen again. I have Moquito coil around their coops at night and I hope it works.

Real keyboard on my laptop. I have tried both the right and left ALT keys.

I have missed getting and holding the alt key properly depressed before hitting the number keys.<shrugs> it happens.

I have wondered if some of the connections on these keys are spotty. It's a refurb computer, so maybe they are.

Truly. A bird like this has no business living in this climate.
I knew the farm I bought the eggs from had Leghorns in the mix. I only set brown or blue eggs. Colby's father must be the Leghorn. I wonder what's happened to him this winter.

Good morning Cafe. Coffee is ready.

I had a nice workout yesterday that helped with the leg. This morning I took the prescription pain meds. It is supposed to warm to near 30 today so I should be able to walk almost an hour with the girls. That always helps loosen up the painful area.

Good morning, Cafe'.

25° (<--it worked!) here and headed for 30° today. I plan to go out and sit with the chickens during chickie snack time. I haven't done that since we had the cold snap.

I'm looking forward to that. I miss visiting my ladies.

Good morning and thanks for the hot coffee!
Yeah, I am sticking with the F and the C...
8F this morning and not warming up during the day with snow falling.
I am not a fan of mosquitoes. The West Nile virus is the summer plague around these parts ( on the plains.)
I am taking DH bowling tomorrow because it will be good for him and supporting a small bowling alley with good food is fun.
Enjoy the day, Cafe!

I will check on the hearing issue, (I know he has one!), but I will see if it happens to be the root cause of this dizziness if it persists after the steroids leave his system. Thanks!
