I should have put the car back in the garage. They cleaned the garage today, so I parked the car on the street last night. I'm just being such a klutz today, that I don't think driving is a good idea.

Watching the littles and the big girls (and boys) interact. I love having chickens. They are so entertaining. Merla and Hester have been having show downs lately. They tuck their heads down, do a stare-off and then flutter up and do chest bumps. Not sure which of the two will end up being top hen of that mini flock. My money is on Merla. She was the first to perch at night and is a bit of a loner. Who knew having chickens could be so entertaining and so much fun!
Just finished listening to my team's baseball game. Cleveland is playing in the Twin Cities. Before the Twins had even one out in their half of the first inning my Tribe was losing 5-0. Over the decades I've learned to never give up on this team because they have pulled off some memorable wins. Tonight they did it again! By the time was over we had won 7-5. Yay Team!
I have a few last pieces of laundry to fold, and then I'm going to get all comfy in my nicegown (what our daughter called her favorite nightgown when she was little) and curl up in the sun room to read. I just picked up the next book in the Wine Lover's Mystery series and I want to tuck into "A Toast for Murder". Of course I'll be sipping on a bit of wine while reading it.
I am not sure what it means, but I selected it because this gal is white with gray markings--the word I know for that in the dog world is merle is I named her Merla. Merla is quite the character. She spends a lot of time spinning in circles and jumping up in the air trying to catch bugs.My aunt's name is Merla, that's not a name that you hear often!

Wow, sounds like it could have been a close call. Glad you were able to sve the boy from himself. Now maybe an afternoon of Grandma/grandson pedis is in order?Last week grandson scratched the back of his heel....Well, it was a good thing the doctor ckecked it out, his diagnoses was (Bacterial skin infection and Lymphangitis.) He started him right away on Amoxicillin. He will be fine but it sure had me worried.

Last week grandson scratched the back of his heel, so I was puting some first -aid cream on it (he did it with the toenail from his other foot). Well, I looked at it this morning and couldn't believe my eyes. There was a red streak coming out of the scab, it was headed up his leg. I called his mother and told her I was taking him to have it checked out. (my uncle died of blood poisoning at the age of 19, I also had it in a thumb, the doctor said if we had waited 1 more day , they would have taken the thumb off).
